That is the most fucked up thing I've read about in a long time. Whatever punishment he gets isn't enough.

She's a whore for having a child with her husband? DOES NOT COMPUTE.
OT: This man is scum.A northeastern Pennsylvania man was arrested and charged with killing his newborn daughter by dropping a cinderblock on her head because he and his girlfriend couldn?t afford another child.
According to police, Christopher Fitzpatrick?s girlfriend began experiencing labor pains while the couple and Fitzpatrick?s 11-year-old sister were inside a grocery store on May 28.
?Have this f*cking baby,? Mr. Fitzpatrick, 20, allegedly told Jennifer A. Barrise, 28. ?I just want to get rid of it. I gotta do what I gotta do.? Barrise asked him twice if he intended to kill their baby, but she never received a response.
The three returned to their car in the parking lot of the grocery store where Barrise gave birth to an apparently healthy baby girl, who landed on the floor of the car. None of the three touched the crying baby.
Later that day, Fitzpatrick took the baby to his job, a lawn care business, where he dropped a cinderblock twice on the baby?s head. Fitzpatrick and Barrise already had a 1-year-old boy together. She reportedly had 5 other children by different men.
It also comes with the hedged wording of "reportedly", and the article it links to explicitly states that official sources don't know the situation.Benth08x said:I was confused as well, but the linked article said something about her having 5 other kids all with different fathers.
Abortion happens before the egg is fertilized enough to even be classified as.. I think living, actually. As it hasn't gone through every stage required (I think there are seven... Respiration's one of them). This is a fully conscious baby. It can make noise, have faint recognition and memory. These are two completely different things.Markgraf said:And yet nobody frowns upon abortion, even though this is exactly the same thing.
No, just no.Markgraf said:And yet nobody frowns upon abortion, even though this is exactly the same thing.
1 other child by him and 5 others by "other men". Also, not her husband, boyfriend.Dags90 said:What the fuck?dogstile said:He's disgusting and she's a whore.

Why the no? At least explain your response if you say something.OmniscientOstrich said:No, just no.Markgraf said:And yet nobody frowns upon abortion, even though this is exactly the same thing.
I don't know, what gets killed with abortion hasn't reached a state of consciousness yet but a baby is just horrid. But I guess you've got a point, we're just being hypocrites.Markgraf said:And yet nobody frowns upon abortion, even though this is exactly the same thing.

If he really has to explain why murdering a sentient newborn when adoption was an option is different than legally aborting a fetus before the birth, then chances are it would fall on deaf ears anyway.Nick Stackware said:Why the no?

And what would you say, would be the conditions through which something could be classified as "living?" Because, legally speaking in the US, there is no definition as to what is, and what isn't alive; and said definitions do not factor into the legality of abortion as expressed by the Supreme Court.Count Igor said:Abortion happens before the egg is fertilized enough to even be classified as..

My mistake. Still, she's 28. She probably doesn't have a great education, and if they can't afford a baby to the point of not going to a hospital, I doubt they have great access to family planning services. Her situation isn't that surprising, it happens to women all over the world who are uneducated and have poor access to family planning.jthm said:1 other child by him and 5 others by "other men".
