Dr. Geoffrey Cundiff, head of the hospital's obstetrics and gynecology department, said he wanted a way for troubled mothers to leave their babies safely and anonymously at the hospital instead of abandoning them on the street.Now, I can appreciate where Dr. Cundiff is coming from... but let's face it... this is a finger in the dyke... and, more to the point... doesn't stop anyone from doing this over & over again.
And hey... I love the use of the word "troubled." Call me a knuckle-draggin' neocon, but if you're dumping newborns on the street... you're not troubled, you're a stone sociopath.
So... two words... tubal ligation.
How about a tax-free five thousand dollar payout, no questions asked, to anyone who chooses to go this route? It's certainly a more permanent solution to this horrific problem... and compared to trying to save, take care of & place all those unwanted newborns... a simpler, more sensible way to go.
Or, I guess you can just throw in with Hillary & Iggy & Jack Layton... and start building abortion clinics all over the place.
I just think my way is better.
