Baby drop off box

Normally I don't read the news online or the papers, but this caught my attention. :no:

Its a shitty world when stuff like this starts popping up.

Can't argue that. It is a crummy world.

But the box is better than an abortion or post-birth murder.  

Sad.

Dumping unwanted babies is not new.  In  1938 my Dad and his CCC buds were picking up trash along a WV road.  They found a dead baby in a box.   The coroner said the baby was born alive.

In Florida it's been the law here for quite a few years that any baby under a certain age can be dropped off at any fire station without penalty.

If they didn't have an age limit, I'd have dropped both of mine off when they became teenagers.
