I can't say I'm surprised. I spent a year there. Iceland is one of the most racist, elitist places in the planet. I'm guessing they think Down's syndrome was introduced by some outsider mating with their women.

The legend is, Iceland was named to sound desolate, and Greenland was named to attract visitors, because Iceland wanted to keep people away. Iceland is cold and windy a lot but nothing like Greenland. The coldest I ever saw was 19. But it was cloudy and wet and cold most of the time. Sunny days were rare. The record high temp was 70ish.

Really? I thought they were lovely. A bit reserved, sure, but pleasant overall.

This is interesting but my first cousin is Downs Syndrome and he is one of the coolest human beings that I have ever met in my 58 years.... He is only about two weeks older than me.....
it's pretty horrible isn't that people want to eliminate them when they are better human beings than most of us.
