TRENDING: More college students support post-birth abortionKilling other people who they cheerfully designate as being without "value" or "not persons" or somehow just OK to kill is a special tenet of the Left. Because they have rejected all other moral authority and have assumed all moral authority for themselves, they will be up-defining who can and should be killed as more and more of them are maleducated in the Leftist "education" machine.
"A trend seen by prolife activists that frequently engage college students on campuses nationwide is the growing acceptance of post-birth abortion, or killing the infant after he or she is born, campus prolife outreach leaders tell The College Fix.
Anecdotal evidence by leaders of prolife groups such as Created Equal and Survivors of the Abortion Holocaust said in interviews that not only do they see more college students willing to say they support post-birth abortion, but some students even suggest children up to 4 or 5-years-old can also be killed, because they are not yet “self aware.”
“We encounter people who think it is morally acceptable to kill babies after birth on a regular basis at almost every campus we visit,” said Mark Harrington, director of Created Equal. “While this viewpoint is still seen as shocking by most people, it is becoming increasingly popular.”
Campuses where the high school, college students, local activists and staff members of Created Equal have encountered this opinion include Purdue, University of Minnesota, and University of Central Florida. And at Ohio State earlier this year, the group captured a debate on video between one of its members and an older woman on campus who defended infanticide.
“This is the whole problem with devaluing human life at any stage—it will naturally grow to include other groups of humans; in this case, born humans as well as preborn humans,” Harrington said. “[I] talked with one young man at the University of Minnesota who thought it was alright to kill children if they were under the age of 5 years old, as he did not consider them persons until that age.”
Kristina Garza, spokeswoman for Survivors of the Abortion Holocaust, a prolife organization that often sets up anti-abortion displays on campuses along the West Coast, said her group also frequently encounters college students who accept infanticide.
“For those who are firmly for abortion, because they understand it kills a human being, it’s very easy for them to accept killing a human being after birth,” Garza said. “There is this notion that is common on campus, that it’s OK to kill babies because somehow we don’t become human until we are self aware.”
“A common number that is going around is 4 years old,” she adds.
As for the trend, Garza said there’s an explanation for it. For one, the arguments put forth by Peter Singer and other philosophers who support infanticide are given as reading assignments to college students.
Singer wrote in 1979 that “human babies are not born self-aware, or capable of grasping that they exist over time. They are not persons … [therefore] the life of a newborn is of less value than the life of a pig, a dog, or a chimpanzee.”
“He has been saying things like this since the 70s, but I think it has been more recently that this type of ideology is being promoted on college campuses,” Garza said. “When he said this stuff, there was a very select few who accepted it. But nowadays, we have become so desensitized, and college students lacking in a moral fiber easily accept this kind of strange ideology.”"

I think it's possible that the age will rise to 28 when the AtheoLeft realizes that those under that age are still incomplete in the frontal lobe, and some are objectionable to them. And the old age limit will occur when their "value to society" declines by say, 10% or so.
The numbers don't matter. What matters is the Leftist self-authorization to kill. The mental, emotional and moral corruption involved in that process is dangerous to every human. The Earth has been through all this before, just in the last century. But the education system apparently has erased that knowledge from the minds of those youth who are their subjects.

I have a two and a half year old daughter and she is quite self aware thank you. When an Atheist asks me what proof I have for god I just look at them and say, "You." It takes special sapience to be as cruelly evil as human beings are.
The use of ANY criterion to determine who will die is indicative of the self-unawareness of the personal evil contained within. There is hardly anyone less self-aware than AtheoLeftists, who are totally emotional reactors in pursuit of preserving their false "eliteness". Their faux self-image is more important to them than the reality of their behaviors and opinions. It is because they are emotionally weak to the point of impairment that they require the "elite" self-satisfying image, even though it is intellectually false and emotionally/morally perverse.
