Caught the show this morning and geez, no small topic and so difficult to broach. I've got to hand it to you all too for takings this subject head on, and some of it is just insane that it can only leave one to feel sick.
Re the last part of the show (out of womb 'killings' and organ harvesting); could not help recalling Raine's book whereby he introduces this hypothetical system (it had an long acronym) for basically dealing with the pre diagnostics for the propensity to commit crime later in life etc. and what to do about it (a whole other discussion for that thread). With these new proposed bills and medical journal papers, how long would it take to introduce to the post birth subject (and possibly in womb) reasons to be weaved into the hypothetical system based on adverse markers (family history; mother, father, grandparents - genetics, health, epigenetics, even a quick brain scan - all the things Raine's discussed) to create other rational? This is obviously an extreme, yet it is all extreme when adopted under pathological social-utopian type legal systems that provides for those who decide, and then what would society be looking at? Where would it end? Like all these things, once introduced and as time passes generationally, it stands the chance that it becomes normalized.
Anyway, thank you for the discussion, it indeed was a hard one.
