But pro-aborts can’t have it every which way.
If abortion represents no greater moral significance than removing an appendix, what is hateful about recommending a baby’s disposal if s/he is problematic?
If abortion is a sacred constitutional right, why wouldn’t blacks getting abortions be celebrated as an American story of triumph?
If abortees aren’t persons who might grow up to commit crimes, why the outrage?
If it is racist to focus on abortions in the black community, why don’t Democrats call for investigations of abortion businesses, since they purposefully target blacks?
According to the Alan Guttmacher Institute, research arm of Planned Parenthood, the United States’ largest abortion provider:
*Abortion services are concentrated in cities, so it is often easier for women residing in metropolitan counties to obtain these services. Nine in 10 women obtaining abortions reside in metropolitan areas …
The lowest abortion rate of all the racial and ethnic groups examined was among white women (13 per 1,000), while the highest rate was among black women (49 per 1,000) …*
According to the U.S. Census bureau, 51.5 percent of blacks live in cities, compared to 21 percent of whites.
According to Guttmacher, black women are more than 3 times as likely as white women to abort, while blacks account for only 13 percent of the population.
According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control, more blacks – 13 million – have been killed since abortion was legalized in 1973 than by violent crimes, AIDS, accidents, cancer, heart disease combined.
According to the U.S. Census bureau, there were 36 million blacks in the United States in 2002. If 13 million black children had not been killed by abortion, the black community would now number 49 million – it would be 36 percent larger. Abortion has killed over one-third of the black community in the last 32 years.
I’d say Bill Bennett is more a prophet than a theorist.
Jill Stanek fought to stop “live-birth abortion” after witnessing one as a registered nurse at Christ Hospital in Oak Lawn, Ill. In 2002, President Bush asked Jill to attend his signing of the Born Alive Infants Protection Act. In January 2003, World Magazine named Jill one of the 30 most prominent pro-life leaders of the past 30 years. To learn more, visit Jill’s blog, Pro-life Pulse.
