French Culture Takes a Nosedive

Something I just posted at DaTechGuy blog:

In France, a video promoting the value and worth of the lives of people with Down Syndrome has been declared inappropriate because it might cause psychic pain to a woman who has chosen to terminate a pregnancy due to fetal anomaly of one kind or another.

In France, the score is right-not-to-be-offended 1, right-to-life 0.

Read the whole post over at DaTechGuy – and at the same link, watch the wonderful two-minute video that French broadcasters and the State Council can’t quite tolerate.
