This source is very reliable because the source shows real situation where a government sect(police) is portrayed with

evidence including pictures and interviews. Furthermore, the source is quite recent, and shows real cases of how the

policemen used Tweeter to listen to people. The fact that the website cooperated with policemen gives them more credibility.
Should genetic information be used
      for making decisions?
“But we want to have
a good choice ... So we
   allow as many as
 thirty per cent of the
  female embryos to
        develop
  normally” (Huxley
          13).
“...[A]n Epsilon embryo must have
an Epsilon environment as well as
 an Epsilon heredity” (Huxley 14).
