Doctors 'should have the right to KILL unwanted or disabled infants'

We simply cannot believe what is in the news today! According to the daily mail:

Doctors should have the right to kill newborn babies because they are disabled, too expensive or simply unwanted by their mothers, an academic with links to Oxford University has claimed.

Even a healthy baby could have its life snuffed out if the mother decides she can’t afford to look after it, the article published by the British Medical Journal group states.

How dare someone ask that an innocent life should be snuffed out? How about giving these babies to those who are childless and want children badly? Arrrrrrrrrrrrrghhhhhh!
