Entry: Is Abortion Racist? Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/is_abortion_racist#23712 Post contents: An old friend of mine (my predecessor as editor of the Yale Free Press, way back in the 80s) once asked a neo-Nazi he'd met his position on abortion. The neo said, "I'm against it--for white gentile women." Many years later, the local abortionist at the Baton Rouge charity hospital came to speak at LSU , for the archly titled "Women's Studies Tea." Her talk consisted of a long lament on how abortion rates among blacks and Hispanics had fallen after the cut off of Medicaid-funded abortions. I echoed my friend, and asked her: "Is this a question of harming black and Hispanic women, or protecting black and Hispanic babies?" She insisted that she didn't understand the question. I'm sure that the poor woman didn't. Let us pray for her soul and those of all who have waded hip deep in innocent blood. For all my sins, I do not envy them their moment at the "fearsome judgment seat of Christ." Sent at: 2008 07 04
