Jopa Posted October 1, 2005 Share Posted October 1, 2005 From the research that was ultimately being discussed: Fertility declines for black women are three times greater than for whites (12 percent compared to 4 percent). Given that homicide rates of black youths are roughly nine times higher than those of white youths, racial differences in the fertility effects of abortion are likely to translate into greater homicide reductions. adds a bit of important context... it doesn't provide any context. in fact, it takes the finding out of the context, by neglecting to discuss the different class and race conditions under which these statistics are presented. especially as a political "leader", it is disgusting that he would make such a reference under any context. imagine what message that sends to the people he is talking about. their own government suggesting the way to reduce crime would be to abort their entire race. lame oh, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
