At Nuremberg, Hitler and his henchmen were condemned by the American judges because they encouraged the killing of the unborn. . . . Hitler was wrong, even though most of the men on our Supreme Court today defend what the Nazis did. If we do not stop killing infants on the premise that they are nothing unless they weigh five or six pounds, we will do what Hitler did: we will kill the handicapped, particularly when those handicapped are aged. Then we will kill the truly handicapped who are retarded: the only "angels" among us, for they have never sinned. . . . Unless we stop abortion we will go further than Hitler, being "better" educated that the Austrian paperhanger. We will kill infants after they are born. We will do it scientifically, of course.
