Deri, most of the persons w/ disabilities being "cleansed" were Germans
and aleeady instutionalised   How does that make it "Ethnic Cleansing?"
If anything, it shows that the  persons w/ disabilities were seen as
economic liabilities then to the Nazi's and therefore were "killed" fot
the goal of good economic convenience...   "Mercy killing" for mercy's
sake may be okay, but I have a real struggle with those who say my life
is less convenient than someone else's and therefore I must be done away
with for the good of the country's economy...
