Britain doesn't believe in death sentences for convicted murderers, but does for infants.

All it would have done is prolong suffering.
While I don't agree that they blocked it, that kid was fucked either way so I'm not losing sleep over this.

I would like to see an explanation for why the parents could not do what they wanted after they had put together their own funding. The kid was by all measures a lost cause from birth, but so long as the finances are there I don't see why a transfer of care to a private and/or foreign medical system would be prohibited. I don't see why any such decision would need to involve the judicial system at all - he was not in unstable condition at the time.

Doctors have a duty of care, in this case the infant would have suffered unnecessary suffering if the parents got their way.
This is not "da state r killin chilluns", this is the hippocratic oath in action.
can you please stop posting about this tragedy? the parents seemed like good people and i would love for them to have some time to grieve. we all fucking agree with you about socialized medicine.

We don't often apply this standard to the dying who are unable to speak for themselves currently. Why the uneven application?

If the kid is a vegetable, it isn't suffering.

About time that little nigga got popped.
Kids aren't your property here.
You don't understand the hospital or states position but go ahead and enjoy your hysterical hyperbolic circle jerk.

If the kid is a vegetable it has no conscious and therefore isn't on our plane of existence anyways.

Nobody in their right mind would expect a private insurance company to cough up 2 mil for an experimental effort to keep a potato alive a while longer, so why would you expect nationalised health insurance to do it?
