Alan Guttmacher: “coercion” may be needed to reduce population
Clinic Quotes ^ | January 5, 2015 | Sarah Terzo

Posted on 01/05/2015 9:35:22 PM PST by Morgana

Alan Guttmacher, once president of Planned Parenthood, in 1969:

“I would like to give our voluntary means of population control full opportunity in the next 10 to 12 years. Then, if these don’t succeed, we may have to go into some kind of coercion, not worldwide, but possibly in such places as India, Pakistan, Indonesia…”

Alan Guttmacher, The American Journal of Nursing (June, 1969).

Quoted in Taylor Carmichael The Seen and the Unseen: Abortion and the Supreme Court (Amazon Digital Services, 2014) 11-12

This was said, I suppose in 1969, only took what 20 years after it was said for it to happen in China. Now life is meaningless there.

Right now I can think of an excellent way to reduce the population by one.

Clearly a culling is inevitable, but as the activist stated, not on everyone. I propose a mandatory 50% reduction in population be forced by the UN in, say, the world's three most populous countries. Let me see, that would be China, India, and...uh...the United States.

Suddenly my enthusiasm for social activism is waning...

I don't think the US is in the top 3

I thought the current method was turning the younger generation into homosexuals so they wouldn’t breed. I guess that’s not working out as well as they hoped.../s

It's actually pretty amazing, but if anyone can poke a hole in the sources, I'd be very grateful.

Here's Nationmaster's figures. I believe their source is the UN.

Here's what the U.S. Census Bureau says. Their only guarantee of accuracy is our own population, though.

This one's got counters. Whee!

A-HEM! And old curmudgeonly bachelors. I'm uh...yeah. I'm doing my part to limit the world population, that's what! The UN should be paying me.

Well, hell, at least I ain't payin' alimony... :-(

I have no problems with gay people, in general, as long as they’re not flamers, sexual deviants, or members of the Gaystapo / liberal activist groups.

I think human life, in China, has been kind of meaningless for hundreds of years. It just might be more meaningless now. OK, if they want to cull the population by 50% or whatever the number, how will they get people to volunteer to be culled?

That just seems wrong on multiple levels.

LOL, let me be more clear on that. Maybe they will look for "volunteers" for culling. When no one "volunteers" to die, they will choose "volunteers" for culling. The question is, who are "they" and what kind of coercion will they use to make people "volunteer " to die?

On the one hand these people preach population control, forced conservation, and ecology while on the other they encourage unlimited illegal immigration. Liberals!

Population *density* is important, too.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_sovereign_states_and_dependent_territories_by_population_density

India has not only the 2nd largest population but also very high (#30?) density.

China, not so much. US, not so much.

Coercion? Peer pressure to use birth control, celebrate the gayless lifestyle, masturbate (pornography, same thing). Peer pressure is what brings on genocide. 450 million abortions is a drop compared to the birth control ‘interruption’s. We deserve our degeneration.

But focus on climate change; more coercion, to avoid thinking about what we have done to millions. Focus on immigration instead of how many we have killed or prevented from living.

Focus pocus, it’s magic!.

Sick minded. Wonder if he wants to extend that thinking to all the breeders Obama is currently importing. Around here, a quick trip to the grocery store has them all on parade with a buggy full of kids and one in the oven, to boot.
