Screening efforts have genocidal aims

Garth George : Screening efforts have genocidal aims - Opinion - NZ Herald News: A group of New Zealand parents and pro-lifers believe that antenatal screening for Down syndrome violates Article 2 of the United Nations Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide, because it imposes measures intended to prevent births within a specific human group. They say it discriminates against people with Down syndrome and that it is in violation of the Crimes Act 1961.
