Down's Syndrome is not "a disease". It's a way of being human.

I know that, Kevin, and you know that and we also know that homosexuality is not a disease but there are those on here and elsewhere that believe that can be cured or treated as well. Usually by restricting their rights - Hence my reference to restricting the rights of people with Downs in my post. Apologies I that I did not make that clear in my 26 Nov 16 - 04:08 PM. I thought that by referring to doing the same to people with brown eyes or black skin made it obvious I was being ridiculous.

I would offer my condolences to all who loved him but, although I have no strong views on his regime, it was wrong to imprison people because of their sexuality. When people think that is a good thing I begin to doubt humanity.
