Bill Bennett: Abort Black Babies and Watch The Crime Rate Go Down
The so-called culture of life folks continue to show us who they really are.
In an exchange with a caller on his radio show, conservative Bill Bennett said that while aborting a black baby would be a "morally reprehensible" thing to do, the crime rate would go down!
"...I do know that it's true that if you wanted to reduce crime, you could -- if that were your sole purpose, you could abort every black baby in this country, and your crime rate would go down. That would be an impossible, ridiculous, and morally reprehensible thing to do, but your crime rate would go down. So these far-out, these far-reaching, extensive extrapolations are, I think, tricky."

It's not even what he said. He said that such an act is morally reprehensible. Again you show your hysteria.

Farrakhan, Farrakhan, whiteys blew up the levees in New Orleans to kill blacks. Where is the outrage for that comment? There is a GIANT black dead air on that one. Come on Sharpton, Jesse, say something.

Sometimes the truth really hurts. the facts are in the report "the color of Crime" published by new century foundation.
Quote " Blacks commit violent crimes at 4 to 8 times the white rate" FACT
Quote "of approx 1,700,000 interacial crimes of violence involving blacks and whites. 90% THATS 90% are committed by blacks against whites" FACT

And so you think that's an excuse to kill Black babies? To lower the crime rate? Are you being an apologist for Bill Bennet?
What's more, did you know that according to the FBI, in 2002 70.7 percent of all arrestees were White. 70.7 percent of arrestees where white in 2002, according to the FBI.
So does that mean we should kill every White baby to lower the crime rate?

Although this man describes his hypothetical as morally reprehensible, he brings it to life by his belief that "crime rate will go down", when in fact, Whites commit more crime that Blacks, but Blacks are convicted at a higher rate. Sorry, you can't spin this one! The world is watching.

Again the lefties who support abortion of babies (black and white) are trying to teach others a lesson about life. What a crock of hypocrisy.
Comment by Elmers Brother— 2005/10/02 @ 02:46 PM — (Reply)
Get this in your head: we are supporting a woman's right to decide what happens in her own body. It's beyond abortion. Male or female, we all have the right to decide what happens in all of our bodies. You do. I do.
And you are the hypocritical one. You are a member of the Party that has become the culture of death.
--- Bill Bennett says aborting every black baby would reduce the crime rate, as if only Blacks commit crimes.
--- Pat Robertson calls for the assassination of Hugo Chavez, and he sat on the 700 Club and prayed for the failing health of Supreme Court members. During his prayer on the 700 Club, he said one SC Justice has cancer (Ruther Bader Ginsberg) and one has a heart problem (not sure who that is). And then he says "Oh Lord, might they find it in themselves to retire."
--- Michael Savage said the only reason President Clinton made it alive out of his heart surgery, was because "hell was full."
--- Bill O'Reilly said he wished that Hurricane Katrina had struck the U.N. Building in New York, and said if it had, he would not moved a finger to help them.
These are the culture of death folks, members of YOUR party. And you won't repudiate or denounce what they have said. YOU are the hypocritical one, who cannot afford to lecture me or anyone else on a culture of life.

Planned Parenthood Advocates Abortion to Reduce Crime
And the bizarre thing is that Bennett, who explicitly rejects abortion, is under attack.
Comment by John McAdams— 2005/10/02 @ 03:43 PM — (Reply)
Planned Parenthood was started by Margaret Sanger, a racist and a believer in eugenics. She thought aborting blacks was a way to create a better breed of people. She was an awful person.
Answer my question Shalana..was the state of California right in charging Scott Peterson with two murders?
Your party advocates abortion on demand. Your logic is terrorists should live but babies should die? I can afford to lecture you because you cite a few people and then lump us all in with them. Well that is what I am doing. If you are going to judge us by the likes of Bill O'reilly then I will lump you with the abortion industry who couches their making of millions of dollars and the killing of millions of innocent children on the right to do what you want.
I don't have the right to do anything I want with my body...if I had AIDS I don'have the right to spit on people or donate blood, I don't have the right to rape women just because I want to....I could go on. It's not beyond abortion because there is not greater tragedy then killing an unborn innocent child.

You think you can afford to lecture us on abortion or issues of morality? Think again.
You are a Republican. YOUR party. That's right, YOUR party, advocates bombing of clinics where abortions are performed. How can you justify that? You can't.
And let me remind you, there are not JUST abortion clinics. These are medical clinics where women go to receive all types of gynecological care. And when someone (i.e. Eric Rudolph) bombs these places, an innocent receptionist might be killed. You cannot justify a killing, to allegedly stop a "killing."
And the fact that you will NOT repudiate or speak against the culture of death comments of people like Bill O'Reilly and Michael Savage, speaks volumes. It shows you share their culture of death views.
Comment by Shalana— 2005/10/02 @ 07:32 PM — (Reply)
I don't care about O'reilly or Savage because they don't speak for me. I speak for me.
You mean "clinics" where black babies are aborted (13 millions since 1973) and money is exchanged for the "service". You can call it a clinic if it makes you feel better but it's still an abortion mill. I have already repudiated on previous posts those who blow up clinics. Hysteria again. I do not advocate killing anyone to stop an abortion. You only assume I am a Republican because I disagree with you. Republicans have never had as part of their platform the bombing of abortion mills, but the right to kill an unborn child is part of the Dems platform. Hahahahah you are a riot!

If you are not for abortion on demand than does that mean you are only for abortion for rape or incest? If so, does the other 99% of abortions bother you? If not what abortions are you not for?

You say you don't care about O'Reilly or Savage because "they don't speak for you." First, let me say that it doesn't mater if they don't speak for you. If you thought their remarks were so terrible, you would repudiate them, whether you felt they spoke for you or not. I don't like everything I hear from some of the progressive/liberal talking heads I listen to. And when I think they are way off base, I'm not afraid to say so. They don't speak for me, but that doesn't mean I can't speak out against their comments when I think they are wrong.
And the fact is, O'Reilly and Savage DO think they speak for you. The reason right-wing talk radio began in the first place, was because the Republican Party felt our nation's newspapers and newcasters were too liberal (what a joke). So when right-wing radio started, they said it was to counter-balance the so-called "liberal media." So they think they speak for you.

You say "they don't speak for you." But they are members of YOUR party, and you refuse to stand against their death wishes for people who don't think like them.

like I said they don't speak for me. unlike you I can think for myself. What abortions are you against? was the state of California right in prosecuting Scott Peterson for two murders?
If you are so pro life, tell me? Does Margaret Sanger speak for you?
btw next year when you're in your senior year of high school and you've taken speech and debate you might finally learn how to answer my question.
