Isn’t it institutional? In this case, the institution of Planned Parenthood?
Abortion only makes up 3-5% of the services provided by Planned Parenthood, according to the organization. So it can’t be forcing abortions on minorities. Where’s the racism?
Democrats were willing to try to deny Brett Kavanaugh being confirmed to the Supreme Court and it’s probably simply over Planned Parenthood.
That’s a leap. Who said that? I thought there were questions about his past conduct.

In the percentage of black children executed.
Forcing? Who said forcing?

PP is being racist because a high number of black women (supposedly) seek its services? What would a non-racist reaction be? To turn them away? To hide from black women? To not communicate in ways in which black women would receive messages? Are you saying that PP affirmatively directs abortion services to black women?

Calling Planned Parenthood racist is simply untenable, logically.

So you think it is okay to set up shop in and around black communities in order to execute black babies.
I’m not in favor of abortion. Planned Parenthood does much more than providing abortions.

Look, I don’t have to defend what they do – it was posited by the esteemed Dr. Carson that the abortion rate of black women is racist. No one yet has shown me where the racism lies or who is practicing such racism. I think he was talking out of his hat.

Then call on them to stop performing abortions. The execute thousands of soon to be born Americans every year.

And it is. They locate in black communities disproportionately. They execute black babies disproportionately. And they promote abortion generally.

This has been explained many times. It is what the poor women want. Supply and demand. If you are against abortion, give those women a positive reason to choose life.

It has also been explained many times, the Democrats enable abortion as much as possible. That is outside the teaching of the Vatican.

As for saying “the poor woman”, the Democrat party is further leaving her vulnerable to societal pressures, her boyfriend or family. So, I definitely question this kind of sympathy, plus, the Democrats have in some venues sought to shut down Crisis Pregnancy Centers and the help available to these women.

Is there a law that requires them to locate there and execute soon to be born children? They could just refuse to do it? They could say that black lives matter, even the soon to be born

It already exists. The very nature of life itself.
Are we not created in His image? Does He not know us in the womb?
Does Not our founding speak to it?
“We hold these truths to be self evident…
among these rights are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.”
If you don’t want a child, don’t do that which brings them into existence. Otherwise, be responsible and financially prepared to take care of a child before you take action that conceives a child.

Apparently that incentive is not working, because so many still seek abortion. That is why I suggest providing a more positive incentive.

I wouldn’t say that PP is directly racist but their specific presence in poor minority neighborhoods is evidence of social oppression of minorities.

The same way that expensive convenience stores offering only liquor and cigarettes is oppressive. Another example is pay-day-loan places- also oppressive.

It’s a symptom of a problem.

This is a valid post as well. A sad truth.

Unfortunately the Pro-Life movement has been highjacked by rugged individualists who think the poor need to “work harder” or “make better choices”.

There is a middle ground to be found here. Personal responsibility is important.

The middle ground for the right is that poor mothers have chosen to have sex and need to figure out how to live with a new baby without an “over-stepping” government giving them the aid they need to have any type of standard of living.

The right doesn’t want their “hard earned money” going to some woman who has made bad choices.
