Why?

This picture was featured on the front page of the newspaper "Utusan Malaysia" on February 6th 2007. This picture of a newborn baby 'thrown' like a garbage, like the empty cigarette box beside it brought tears to my eyes. Who in the world could do such a horrid thing? It's an innocent baby for goodness sakes! Why? Why would a person commit such an act?

I swear, people should learn not to get pregnant if they don't want to get pregnant. Don't do the deed if you're not ready to accept the consequences. And doesn't the word contraception mean a thing? Condoms are not hard to get. Even 7/11 sells them. Abortion is also an option. And if you don't want to get an abortion and end up giving birth to the baby, give it up for adoption! Don't just throw it somewhere like it was a piece of trash. It's a living, breathing, baby. It's a PERSON. I can't even do anything even remotely horrible to a cat, let alone a human being.

I just don't get how a human being could do something like that to another human being. How could they be so cruel? How could they leave it out to die? How could they throw it out to die?

It's just a baby... Just a baby...
