Margaret Sanger quotes
Founder of Planned Parenthood

Margaret Sanger founder of the International Planned Parenthood Federation, was a proponent of forced eugenics, segregation, abortion, birth control and sexual immorality. Here are some of her quotes.

"The most merciful thing that a family does to one of its infant members is to kill it."
Margaret Sanger (editor). The Woman Rebel, Volume I, Number 1. Reprinted in Woman and the New Race. New York: Brentanos Publishers, 1922.

"Birth control must lead ultimately to a cleaner race."
Margaret Sanger. Woman, Morality, and Birth Control. New York: New York Publishing Company, 1922. Page 12.

"We should hire three or four colored ministers, preferably with social-service backgrounds, and with engaging personalities. The most successful educational approach to the Negro is through a religious appeal. We don’t want the word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population. and the minister is the man who can straighten out that idea if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members."
Margaret Sanger’s December 19, 1939 letter to Dr. Clarence Gamble, 255 Adams Street, Milton, Massachusetts. Original source: Sophia Smith Collection, Smith College, North Hampton, Massachusetts. Also described in Linda Gordon’s Woman’s Body, Woman’s Right: A Social History of Birth Control in America. New York: Grossman Publishers, 1976.

"Eugenic sterilization is an urgent need … We must prevent multiplication of this bad stock."
*Margaret Sanger, April 1933 Birth Control Review. *

"Eugenics is … the most adequate and thorough avenue to the solution of racial, political and social problems.
Margaret Sanger. “The Eugenic Value of Birth Control Propaganda.” Birth Control Review, October 1921, page 5.

"Birth control itself, often denounced as a violation of natural law, is nothing more or less than the facilitation of the process of weeding out the unfit, of preventing the birth of defectives or of those who will become defectives."
[no source available at this time…]

As an advocate of birth control I wish … to point out that the unbalance between the birth rate of the ‘unfit’ and the ‘fit,’ admittedly the greatest present menace to civilization, can never be rectified by the inauguration of a cradle competition between these two classes. In this matter, the example of the inferior classes, the fertility of the feeble-minded, the mentally defective, the poverty-stricken classes, should not be held up for emulation…
On the contrary, the most urgent problem today is how to limit and discourage the over-fertility of the mentally and physically defective.
*Margaret Sanger. “The Eugenic Value of Birth Control Propaganda.” Birth Control Review, October 1921, page 5. *

"The campaign for birth control is not merely of eugenic value, but is practically identical with the final aims of eugenics."
Margaret Sanger. “The Eugenic Value of Birth Control Propaganda.” Birth Control Review, October 1921, page 5.
 
"Our failure to segregate morons who are increasing and multiplying … demonstrates our foolhardy and extravagant sentimentalism … [Philanthropists] encourage the healthier and more normal sections of the world to shoulder the burden of unthinking and indiscriminate fecundity of others; which brings with it, as I think the reader must agree, a dead weight of human waste. Instead of decreasing and aiming to eliminate the stocks that are most detrimental to the future of the race and the world, it tends to render them to a menacing degree dominant … We are paying for, and even submitting to, the dictates of an ever-increasing, unceasingly spawning class of human beings who never should have been born at all."
*Margaret Sanger. The Pivot of Civilization, 1922. Chapter on “The Cruelty of Charity,” pages 116, 122, and 189. Swarthmore College Library edition. *

"The undeniably feeble-minded should, indeed, not only be discouraged but prevented from propagating their kind."
Margaret Sanger, quoted in Charles Valenza. “Was Margaret Sanger a Racist?” Family Planning Perspectives, January-February 1985, page 44.

"The third group [of society] are those irresponsible and reckless ones having little regard for the consequences of their acts, or whose religious scruples prevent their exercising control over their numbers. Many of this group are diseased, feeble-minded, and are of the pauper element dependent upon the normal and fit members of society for their support. There is no doubt in the minds of all thinking people that the procreation of this group should be stopped."
Margaret Sanger. Speech quoted in Birth Control: What It Is, How It Works, What It Will Do. The Proceedings of the First American Birth Control Conference. Held at the Hotel Plaza, New York City, November 11-12, 1921. Published by the Birth Control Review, Gothic Press, pages 172 and 174.

**“The marriage bed is the most degenerative influence in the social order…” **
Margaret Sanger (editor). The Woman Rebel, Volume I, Number 1. Reprinted in Woman and the New Race. New York: Brentanos Publishers, 1922.

**"[Our objective is] unlimited sexual gratification without the burden of unwanted children…" **
Margaret Sanger (editor). The Woman Rebel, Volume I, Number 1. Reprinted in Woman and the New Race. New York: Brentanos Publishers, 1922.

"Give dysgenic groups [people with ‘bad genes’] in our population their choice of segregation or [compulsory] sterilization."
Margaret Sanger, April 1932 Birth Control Review.

“As we celebrate the 100th birthday of Margaret Sanger, our outrageous and our courageous leader, we will probably find a number of areas in which we may find more about Margaret Sanger than we thought we wanted to know…”
***Faye Wattleton, Past-president of Planned Parenthood
Margaret Sanger, Founder of Planned Parenthood,* proposed the American Baby Code* that states, “No woman shall have the legal right to bear a child… without a permit for parenthood”.

Margaret Sanger, Founder of Planned Parenthood,* proposed the Population Congress* with the aim, "…to give certain dysgenic groups in our population their choice of segregation or sterilization.

Well, duh! Maybe that’ll make them think a little. And wasn’t Faye Wattleton a “colored”? (To quote Margaret Sanger) Or am I not remembering correctly?

I know that Reverend Jesse and Al Sharpton are. But what gets me is that Faye Wattleton is African-American and, as a past president of Planned Barrenhood, she should know about Margaret Sanger’s philosophy. Come on, with roots like that, does anyone really think that an organization is going to be good?

I wonder if Jesse and Al know about dear old Margaret’s beliefs.
 
I wonder what all those supposedly compassionate pro-choicers would think if they knew their heroine was a big fan of eugenics? So, obviously, were the Nazis.

Looking at her gives me just as much chills (not the good kind of chills) as looking at this here fellow. I wonder if they’re related. (For those of you who don’t know, that’s Anton Lavey, founder of the church of Satan).

Interesting that in both photos the shadows overpower the pictures. A foretaste of things to come for each of them? I hope they repented.

**OK, let me clarify. I know that they support Planned Barrenhood. What I am wondering is do they know about Margaret Sanger’s beliefs regarding “negros”. **

Sorry:o I must be dense today;) I have wondered that myself, does anyone else here know?:confused:
 
Hey I don’t know if anyone here can help me answer these typical abortion arguments in the best way possible but that it be brief. I hope not to be asking for something impossible. I’d appreaciate your time and help. I’m in another debate thread where I’m the only catholic and everyone else is anticatholic. I think it’s the best way to evangelize.

The right of the unborn to live supersedes any right of a woman to "control her own body."Margaret Sanger said, “No woman can call herself free who does not own and control her own body.” This concept is fundamental for women.Start with this basic fact. The child is not “the woman’s body” The baby has it’s own circulatory system, own DNA, and even often a different sex and or blood type. Does a pregnant woman have 4 arms and 4 legs while pregnant? Does she have 2 livers, 4 kidneys, 2 hearts, etc.? It is not controlling her own body when she has an abortion. As for the Margaret Sanger quote-let them know about the other quotes of hers. Esp. the ones about the “negros”.
 
Pictures of highly-developed fetuses, bloody abortions, tiny feet, fetuses in garbage cans; use of words “baby” and "kill."RTL visual materials are usually grossly enlarged, undocumented and mislabeled. They are cleverly designed to evoke emotions of revulsion against abortion and sympathy toward the fetus.
As for this garbage. One can look it up in any medical textbook.

I have seen two abortions myself and it is in no way, shape, or form the BS that the argument is proporting it to be.
 
Hitler used racial grounds to exterminate Jews and other “undesirables.” The reproductive rights movement has no genocide component – no one is out to kill all embryos. It is an insult to the memory of the alive and conscious human beings murdered by the Nazis to equate them with embryos for anti-abortion propaganda.

Just point out these little quotes from Ms. Sanger:
**“We should hire three or four colored ministers, preferably with social-service backgrounds, and with engaging personalities. The most successful educational approach to the Negro is through a religious appeal. We don’t want the word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population. and the minister is the man who can straighten out that idea if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members.”

"Eugenic sterilization is an urgent need … We must prevent multiplication of this bad stock."

"Eugenics is … the most adequate and thorough avenue to the solution of racial, political and social problems.

That, sir, is a huge list of empty rhetoric and flimsy arguments. To be quite honest I don’t want to get into another forum at the moment, but would be perfectly happy refuting any number of these. Anything in particular?
