Actually, yes, it can feel, react to changes in the environment, respond to stimuli, etc. Just like (wouldn't you know it) a little person. Which is why people consider it to be, well, a little person. It has a heartbeat, structure, nervous system, internal organs, you name it. Remember, you're also supporting the idea that anybody caring for somebody with a mental handicap should have the choice whether or not to have that person murdered.
