dumping the next generation

• Foetuses 'cannot experience pain


• Hospital bars foetus photos man

I find it ironic that there seems so much interest in abortion. Now I know its pretty clear that from my other post I support a ban on abortion, because I believe that its not a foetus it is a Child. Now it is a sad society that disposes
of the next generation purely for there own self interest. Now some have labled yuppie generation as the "SELF" generation and if that is the case Generation X is the "Entertained" generation, and the next one will be the "Xtreme" generation.
All of these have led to generations that not only look value self above all else but disgard anything and everone who doesn't fit into its world. The party line is "everychild a wanted child" but what is really meant is "any child is a symbol of my self". While talking about valuing children, child abuse has exploded. Children have become disposable.
The most remarkable aspect of this whole article is no one would complain if he was sending hospital staff pictures of kidneys, hearts or livers. Now I do not agree with the sending these pictures to anyone other than lawmakers, maybe. They are sadening at disrespectful of the life that was taken, but I find it interesting the hipocrasy these organizations have, including the BBC who won't write anything that points out the hypocrasy.

A 75-year-old man has been denied hip treatment after health officials warned him about sending hospital staff pictures of aborted foetuses.

Anti-abortion supporter Edward Atkinson has been jailed for 28 days for sending offensive photos to the Queen Elizabeth Hospital, King's Lynn, Norfolk.

The hospital said Atkinson had been banned from treatment for anything other than life-threatening conditions.

An anti-abortion group backing Atkinson said the decision was "outrageous".

James Dowson, national co-ordinator of the UK Life League, said: "It is ridiculous. I think it is completely unfair. They are refusing to treat him. Would they refuse a murderer or a paedophile?"

'Zero Tolerance' policy

Atkinson, of Ely Road, Hilgay, Norfolk, had been on a waiting list for an assessment for a hip operation when he started sending in pictures of aborted foetuses.

The NHS Trust wrote to him asking him not to send such material to the hospital as it was distressing staff.

When he continued, the trust said he had broken its "zero tolerance" policy with regards to staff.

On Monday, Ruth May, chief executive of the Queen Elizabeth Hospital, said in a statement: "The trust's view is that we have a duty of care to our staff.

"Our legal advisers were consulted and their opinion was that this man's actions contravened the NHS Zero Tolerance policy in cases of abuse or unacceptable behaviour towards our staff.

"We take such matters extremely seriously and because he continued to send extremely graphic material to us we exercised our right to decline treatment to him for anything other than life-threatening conditions."

On Thursday at Swaffham Magistrates Court, Atkinson was convicted of three counts of sending offensive literature or material to staff at the hospital between January and April this year.

The literature, sent via the post, contained colour images of a dead foetus and the video, hand delivered, was of an abortion.
