So you see it's very, very bad... Of course we can somewhat understand the mother, and of course pray God that He be mercyful, for she aided her girl for years... But, BUT, a murder is a murder ! It isn't the same as an act of love... Moreover it is a killing, mutatis mutandis of a child who didn't really understand what happened, a poor disabled girl. Now if good is bad and bad is good this is very frightening. Seeing the people - the turba of the Passion - applausing the releasing of a murderer is still more frightening ! For we all have great parents and old dears. O Lord pray for us.

For the news and links I'm sorry I didn't see it in english (that's why I gave it here), see in french for example http://e-deo.net/?p=2060 (a readable translation exists with an option somewhere at the right below, or maybe this link works

Sad news from France, I hope you can share it, cause it's important you know the next step of the Brave New world.

Perhaps you know we're in a great offensive by the 'usual killers', starting from dramatic cases, to legalize euthanasia. Now something happens that shows that the mentality prompted by euthanasia pushes people to sacrifice other, particularly the disabled ones (same as abortion leading to infanticide)

Lydie Debaine had a unique daughter, very disabled, whose mental age didn't exceed 5. She was in special institutions until 2001 but at that time the mother was obliged to resign her work to aid all day her girl. But in 2005 she gave anxiolytics to her girl than drowned her to death in the bath. Next she tried to kill herself but her husband rescued her.
Now a regional court (Val-d'Oise) has acquitted her ! Under the APPLAUSE of the people ! And all people on the web are commenting, after the barrister of L.D., that such a murder is a act of love, and of courage...
