in Britain. If the government told me I had to let my child die by withholding treatment and life support and refused to allow me to to remove child from the hospital to go where there is treatment available there would be serious repercussions.

I’m amazed that a “free” country would allow Alfie to die when there are other options that don’t require their health care system to fund.

 Government run Healthcare at its finest. This "could" have happened here if Obama,Sanders or the rest of the dems had had their way. So who's  responsibility is it to determine if someone's life is "worth" spending the time and money to save?

 Ask yourself a question. If this was Kate's new baby instead of a pesant child would they still deny the care to save his life?

Here's a pic of the police lined up making sure the parent can't take their child out of the hospital and on to the waiting airplane that's already lined up to take him to Italy, which has agreed to cover all costs for the transport and treatment.

It's almost as if they're terrified the treatment in Italy might work, making their communist healthcare system look bad or something...

And the Thought Police warning people to not say bad things as well..... Sad how far the once proud nation has fallen, and reinforces WHY so many of us fight so hard to make sure we don't emulate their loss of freedoms in any way:

This is exactly what you get with government ran healthcare. They get to pick and choose who lives and dies. If this were my kid i guarantee someone would be paying for their choice. You take my child away from me i will take you away from yours.

 Grin I would own him after that comment. I'm sure you can get guns on the black market and they would be in a world of hurt. Maybe we need to send some missiles over there to prove a point.

(Just to make sure there's no misunderstanding, Babylon Bee is a parody site, like The Onion, however it is getting harder and harder to tell parody from reality, as reality slides more and more into the realm of what should be parody.)

This whole ordeal is disgusting. How can anyone do this to a little boy and his family?

Brought to you by the type people that think an abortion is ok for any reason or desire. A baby is a baby!

I agree. They ignored the Pope, maybe it’s time for the Queen to step in. I don’t know how much power she wields but I’m sure she could stir up a real s#!t storm if she was so inclined.

The politicians in the UK need to be tarred and feathered.

All of them.

On the bright side, the next time some statist asks why I NEED an AR-15, at least maybe I have an answer they could understand.

...because one day the government may tell me I'm not allowed to put my sick son on an aircraft and fly him to Italy for treatment.

Believe me when I tell you I WILL be putting him on that aircraft.

Sad day for sure. How helpless and hopeless the last week of life for the family had to be. Maybe it was inevitable but not the way to treat a human being.
