Katherin McCann of Ohio Right to Life wrote a very disturbing op-ed that should delight racists everywhere.
In 2012, 9,694 African-American babies in Ohio were aborted. Though African-American women make up less than 8 percent of our state’s population, 42 percent of abortions were performed on them.
The article indicated that between 2007 and 2011, there were 819 sleep-related deaths among infants — “enough to fill seven kindergarten classrooms each of those years.”
For a comparison, in 2012 alone, 387 kindergarten classrooms of African-American students were aborted. This truly is a crisis.
As one of the articles pointed out, “Race remains a difficult topic in America.” But I have to agree with Sarah Biehl, policy director for the Children’s Defense Fund-Ohio, who said, “The more we have these conversations — these really uncomfortable conversations — the better.”
Hey, remember hen Supreme Court Justice Ruth Vader Ginsburg said “Frankly I had thought that at the time [Roe v. Wade] was decided there was concern about population growth and particularly growth in populations that we don’t want to have too many of.”

Godwin's law (or Godwin's Rule of Nazi Analogies)[1][2] is an Internet adage asserting that "As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches 1" [2][3]— that is, if an online discussion (regardless of topic or scope) goes on long enough, sooner or later someone will compare someone or something to Hitleror Nazism.
Promulgated by American attorney and author Mike Godwin in 1990,[2] Godwin's Law originally referred, specifically, to Usenet newsgroup discussions.[4] It is now applied to anythreaded online discussion, such as Internet forums, chat rooms and blog comment threads, as well as to speeches, articles and other rhetoric.[5][6]
In 2012, "Godwin's Law" became an entry in the third edition of the Oxford English Dictionary.[7]

Not a reply to this character just a note that this is typical of the PC bullies. They demand that you conform to the pack think and if you do not then they throw names and insults thus proving that they are both intelligent and adult.

A lie???? Mz. Plum you either are intentionally not reading what is written or? Just to help your connective disorder I will try to explain, Jennifer says that making "personal reproductive decisions does not amount to the elimination of a race" so I asked if we can pretend it isn't happening because she calls it that. Asking a question can not be a lie by it's very nature so your post is not logical.

You fail to miss the main point of this. This is not an analogy of being like nazis. Your (by your defense of) organization is the original and remnant of the nazi movement. Please read up on the history of the eugenics movement and the rest involved.

A woman's personal reproductive decision is just that–personal. Unless you can prove that women of color are being kidnapped off the streets and dragged into abortion clinics at gunpoint, it does not amount to racial genocide.

Of course this is a very suspect and ideological source who could very well have fudged the truth I suppose. Mz. Plum will likely not accept them as a source because of this.

Net effects of policies and pressures that society exerts on people can amount to the elimination of a race. It may take more generations than direct forced sterilization but the end result is still the same.

So what you're basically saying is that you don't consider minority women to be intelligent enough to make their own reproductive choices. Very condescending.

By your definition the opposing the "right" of Native Americans to accept free blankets with smallpox virus from the English would be condescending.

I know more than you about the history of the eugenics movement and those involved. I can tell by what you write about eugenics. The States did not stop doing involuntary eugenic sterilizations until the late 1960s.

Again ms plum you spout nonsense. What does the time frame of forced sterilization have to do with what anyone has said?
