I know my history quite well, thanks, and I also know that the systematic killing of handicapped people because of the assumption that they are inferior, and systematic eugenics programs that try to "breed" defects out of the population, are a far cry from attempting to carry out what the court has OBJECTIVELY deemed were a woman's wishes regarding her own life and death. It's a pretty clear distinction, and bringing up Hitler only clouds the issue. Perhaps that's the point?
