The pro life movement often argues that abortion rights is a racist agenda because of the disproportionate number of minority babies terminated. I don’t agree with that argument, actually. I don’t think that most pro choice activists are racist or that abortionists do what they do for racially discrminatory reasons.
But there are exceptions, as in the case of the abortion doctor who calls those he snuffs, “ugly black babies.”
Of course, the killer in Colorado wasn’t black. He was white. Awful.
