Abortion foes raise race issue

Taking their message as close to school campuses as they are legally allowed, local abortion opponents have been distributing information to students that compares abortion with racial lynchings by the Ku Klux Klan.

About 15 members of a group called Teens for Life appeared late last week outside Rocklin High School and, as students entered campus, distributed brochures depicting a pointed white hood with the statement: "Lynching Is for Amateurs."

"Planned Parenthood is accomplishing what the Klan could only dream about," the brochure states underneath a list of statistics about abortion rates among African American women.

Typically, the group stands outside campuses of Sacramento or Placer county schools and displays large images of fetuses. The use of brochures with a racial overtone appears to be a new tactic, and one that is catching some parents and students off-guard.

"It's hard to determine if they're a racist organization," said Mark Katzmann, whose son is a freshman at Rocklin High. "The tone of it is confusing, and my son thought they were a KKK-type group."

John Ficker, director of the Citrus Heights-based Teens for Life, said his group has only recently begun distributing the "Lynching Is for Amateurs" brochure.

The pamphlet says that most Planned Parenthood clinics are located in minority neighborhoods and that "more than 25 percent of the black population has been aborted" since the procedure became legal in 1973.

"If you read it, it's not racist," Ficker said.

"Planned Parenthood is accomplishing far more evil, in the sense of killing black children, than the KKK. Both are evil organizations," he said.

Margaret Sanger of Planned Parenthood, made no secret of her desire to eliminate the black, poor, and unfit. Black women are 13.5 percent of the female population but have 34 percent of all abortions, their abortion rate (31 per 1,000 women) being 2.6 times the rate for white women (12 per 1,000). The best estimate is that 546,000 black children are killed each year, or about 15 million since Roe v. Wade in 1973.

Margaret Sanger was also a vocal admirer of Adolph Hitler, at least until 1939. I really wish more people understood that Planned Parenthood's roots are deeply and firmly planted in the same eugenics movement that gave the world Auschwitz.

I guess you could put it this way:

abortion=genocide, especially when you're talking about numbers that high.

Not very pretty, and I'm sure there will be screaming when this really gets out. I say they ought to save their outrage for the practice of abortion, in toto, instead of trying to turn it into a racial issue. It may just end up alienating people instead of highlighting the facts. Too many people have knee-jerk reactions when you use race in any way, whether it's accurate or not. I think, on this particular issue, there is enough to anger you about the practice without angering blacks...it does APPEAR racist, and most people wouldn't bother to read the brochure after seeing the title and the picture. They would just see it and come to their own conclusions without bothering to use their brains. Intellectually lazy, or too emotional. (and I mean that of white people, too, or other minorities, not just blacks) Just my two cents.

Oh? Is your "son" incapable of speaking for himself?

Abortion: Black Genocide!

By Jesse Lee Peterson

Prior to ten years ago, I believed that if a woman wanted to have an abortion, I had no role in that decision as a man: Her body, her decision. I had no consideration of the baby in the womb, as I did not see the unborn child as a human being. Seeing things that way also conveniently removed any responsibility I may have felt as a father. I certainly did not consider the emotional destruction that a woman has to deal with as a result of having an abortion. But that all changed...

I had considered myself a Christian since being "saved" at the age of fifteen. My habit had been to pray daily, and my idea of prayer was to ask and beg God for things. But one day I did something different - I simply sat quietly, asking and begging for nothing. In an instant I experienced a deep realization - I harbored resentment in my heart. I could see that this anger was directed at my parents for failing me. I could also see I had resentment for the challenges I had to face in life. Seeing how my hatred had controlled me and harmed others immediately caused me to forgive them. Forgiveness set me free from within, and I began to see with a clarity I never had before.

Soon after that life-changing experience, I started the organization B.O.N.D. My focus was directed toward helping black men overcome their resentments and find freedom. Soon I was helping men of every race as I saw mankind's problems were universal. I began to counsel young and older women as well. Many of the women I spoke to were having or have had an abortion (sometimes as many as four and five). During the counseling sessions, I discovered that most of these women had guilt and low self-esteem. Often they had considered suicide.

I found that there were girls as young as twelve and thirteen having multiple abortions. They were told to have an abortion because they were too young to have a baby, or because grandma did not want to raise the grandbaby, or because there was no husband around to help.

As a result of these findings, I started to look deeper into the abortion issue. I found that it was not being dealt with by the black clergy or black politicians. In fact, to my surprise, abortion was often actually encouraged by these "leaders".

Margaret Sanger, Racist

After reading up on its history, I discovered that the idea of legal abortion was first popularized by a white women, Margaret Sanger, who was the founder of the National Birth Control League, which is now known as Planned Parenthood. Sanger was a lifelong champion of birth control and Eugenics (the movement devoted to "improving" the human species by control of hereditary factors in reproduction). For a number of years she edited a magazine called the Birth Control Review. Here she gave a platform for numerous articles on these issues, often written by racists, Nazi sympathizers, and/or Eugenicists.

Margaret Sanger called for the sterilization of "genetically inferior races". In 1939, she organized her "Negro Project" and wrote "the poorer areas, particularly in the South... are producing alarmingly more than their share of future generations." Sanger wrote "The most successful educational approach to the Negro is through a religious appeal. We do not want word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population and the Minister is the man who can straighten out that idea if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members".

Margaret Sanger's plan has worked extraordinarily well over time - today numerous black religious leaders defend the "right" of women to kill their unborn children. It's ironic to me that black leaders complain about racism, saying that white people are trying to keep them down, yet they promote one of the most racist policies in this country, abortion.

of the ways that Planned Parenthood and others have encouraged black and other Americans to abort their unborn children is by convincing them that the child is not a human but a "fetus". Abortion propagandists have dehumanized the unborn baby just as was done with the Jews in the Holocaust. In his book Abortion Practice, Warren Hern, M.D. compares the unborn child to a "parasite", which was the exact word Hitler used to dehumanize Jews in his infamous Mein Kanpf. To Hitler, the extermination of Jews was "religious choice".

s same principle was applied in America with blacks and slavery. Many whites at one time hung blacks from trees. It was condoned because whites did not see blacks as persons. Whites saw their inhuman actions as "racial choice".

in America millions of unborn babies are being killed because they are known as a "fetus" and not a person. This is known as "reproductive choice". The Center for Bioethical Reform, formed by Greg Cunningham, makes these points crystal clear in its brilliant program, the Genocide Awareness Project.

Genocide Awareness Project (GAP) publicly displays large posters comparing Jewish Holocaust victims, blacks killed in racist lynchings and aborted babies to teach the "conceptual similarity between abortion and more widely recognized forms of genocide". The Project travels across the United States showing the display at major Universities and other appropriate locations.

Ohio State Experience

During the week of October 19th through 23rd, 1998, myself and B.O.N.D. Director of Finance, Francisco Martinez joined the GAP presentation at Ohio St. University (see B.O.N.D. Update). There were approximately twenty black men total in attendance, as well as several Jews. The presentation organizers remarked that the black and Jewish presence helped prevent the race card from being played by those opposed to the comparison of abortion to previous genocides.

The week at Ohio St. was an eye-opening experience, to say the least. The raw hatred poured out on us that week by pro-abortion students and others was mind-blowing. We were subjected to a wide range of obscenity, both shouted and in some cases demonstrated visually, such as the time a young woman who was with us accidentally dropped a Bible on the ground, and a pro-abortion lesbian picked it up and proceeded to use it as a simulated masturbation prop with another woman.

A great spiritual lesson was nonetheless demonstrated that week: while all the outrageous, hateful behavior was thrown at us, we simply let the posters speak for us, and in seeing that these people were spiritually blind, chose not to return hate for hate. The result was nothing short of remarkable. It drove a lot of the pro-aborts crazy, but some saw the injustice of their behavior, apologized, and dropped their rage. What a week!...

Abortion in the Black Community

I was shocked to learn the number of black women who have had an abortion since the United States Supreme Court legalized it in 1973. Since that time, the number of pre-born lives extinguished is approximately 32 million which includes over ten million black babies. That is about one third or more of the black population in the United States!

Over the past ten years, I have counseled and picketed at abortion clinics across the country. I was particularly struck one Saturday morning at a clinic in Virginia. We arrived there at 8 AM to counsel and demonstrate. The clinic opened at 9 AM. Within a one hour period, I saw at least thirty to forty young black women (some with men and some without) entering this clinic to have abortions performed as if it were NOTHING. It was like getting up and going to a restaurant for Saturday morning breakfast. They had no shame attached to their actions. As a matter of fact, these young women and their boyfriends were angry at us for reminding them that they had another choice.

I will never, ever forget the story of a young black girl I met at an abortion clinic in Los Angeles one Saturday morning. I was protesting near the clinic when I saw the young lady approach the front door. I talked to her, and tried to encourage her to put her baby up for adoption. She said it was too late to make that decision. The young lady then told me her story. She said she had gone into the clinic that Thursday. The doctor had injected something into her womb. For three days the baby KICKED AND GASPED FOR LIFE. On the third day, the baby died. She told me that when the baby expired, it was devastating to her. She also told me she would never ever be able to overcome the experience.

I asked the girl why she chose to go through the process. She said she was encouraged to do this by her mother and boyfriend. That employees in the clinic told her she wouldn't feel anything. They said that she was carrying a fetus and NOT A BABY and that she could not afford to take care of a baby at her age. I asked how old she was. She replied that she was thirteen!

To kill a person inside the mother's womb is spiritually, emotionally, and physically devastating to the killer. God did not give a women or a man the choice or the right to TAKE THE LIFE of an innocent, unborn child.

Abortion is so commonplace in the black community today, it is not even looked upon as being a shameful act anymore. It has also given black men one more way to be irresponsible. Because of the weakness of the father, the destruction of the family, and the lack of morality and values in the black community, many black women feel they have no other choice but abortion.

The black community is a major market for white abortion doctors. In fact, the majority of abortion clinics are located within minority communities. And yet, it is nearly impossible to get black churches and black politicians to get involved with us to picket abortion clinics, to counsel mothers who are getting abortions, or to speak out against abortion.

I believe there is a reason for the silence of black churches and black politicians regarding abortion. They actually have much in common with the abortionists: Abortionists are simply using blacks for power and wealth, the same way much of the black clergy, black politicians, liberal elite whites, and government have used blacks for years.

I notice that when I am in front of the clinics or talk about abortion on my radio show, most of the anger, hostility, and attacks come from young white and black educated women. These women typically hate their fathers and men who have used them in the wrong way. Our universities have taken this hatred and "educated" these young women with "facts" that reinforce their existing inner rage and prejudices.

The pro-life movement, just as the Genocide Awareness Project is already doing, must start educating women before they get to the abortion clinic, i.e.: in the homes and the universities. By the time these women reach the abortion clinic, it is usually too late to change their minds. They are desperate, lack hope and believe they have no other choice but to kill their unborn children. These women must have a choice. Therefore, it is imperative we put the families back together. The girls need to be loved by both their fathers and mothers, so they will not fall prey to the counterfeit love and callous use of their boyfriends.

Partial Birth Horror

Any evil act left uncontained will progress until it is out of control. So it is with abortion. We are now at a point where a woman can "terminate" her baby at the ninth month via "partial birth" abortion. In this procedure, the abortionist, guided by ultrasound, reaches into the uterus and grabs the unborn baby's leg with a forceps. The "doctor" then pulls the baby out of the birth canal except for the head which is deliberately kept just inside the womb.

Next the abortionist jams scissors into the back of the live baby's head and spreads the tip of the scissors apart to "enlarge" its skull. After removing the scissors, a suction catheter is inserted into the skull and the baby's brains are literally sucked out. The collapsed head is then removed from the uterus. The abortionist's brutal womb-invading butchery is called legal, whereas if the doctor performed this same "procedure" outside the woman's body, he would be legally guilty of murder. This act and the dark logic employed to justify it are absolutely unconscionable to me. It's hard to believe that the black community and America at large can allow this type of wanton genocide to continue.

History shows us that the Savior of mankind, Jesus Christ, came by way of the mother's womb. Even then there was an attempt on his life. He was able to escape, which allowed mankind to be saved from destruction. I pity mankind if once again a savior has to come via the mother's womb. This is a wicked attack upon the soul of man. It is a warfare between good and evil and we need to wake up to that reality.

Conclusion

We, the men and women of B.O.N.D., are fighting to give women another choice, and give babies a chance to live by offering these women counseling, and referrals for homes and places for adoption. Most fundamental of all, we encourage women of all races to overcome their anger, rise to a higher standard of principle and wait until marriage before having sex and starting a family.

It is time for the black community to come out of its state of denial and realize that true racism is the attack on the black unborn baby, started by Margaret Sanger and carried out by the liberal elite of America in this country. The solution to this problem is a strong belief in the Creator, love of values, strong families, self-respect, and knowledge of oneself.

White America, along with black America must stand up against this diabolical assault. America will suffer beyond description if this barbarism is not halted. This is nothing short of another holocaust, another slavery, another genocide.

It is time for the black clergy who are supposedly called by God, to take a public stand. They must stop thinking of their selfish hunger for power and wealth, and wake up to the ugly reality they are allowing to take place. America must demand that the laws are changed to protect the unborn. And the law will change - weak-willed politicians will finally respond - when the people's hearts and minds change.

Most importantly, men must step to the forefront of this issue. For far too long they have been missing, just as they have been absent in the black family. It was a horrible mistake to take them away from this issue. When men were removed, reason and logic largely went with them. They must return, or the horrors we've already seen in this "one nation under God" will be dwarfed by the horrors to come.

The author of this piece as well those who were interviewed are either dense or are pretending to bwe confused in order to paint the pro-life kids as racists.

Either way - hurrah for these pro-ife teen!

This preacher is right. Abortion is evil. But the converstation he needs to be having is with black males, especially young guys who are sexually irresponsible and don't marry the girls they keep knocking up, sometimes one after the other.

The Margaret Sanger papers at at New York University. On occasion I would walk by the offices where they were stored, and it gave me the shivers.

Rev. Peterson started BOND to give support to black men to stay with their families and be fathers to their kids. He continues to have these meetings, plus he has a home for young men, to teach them values and character. He practices what he preaches!

PASTOR ERNIE SANDERS, who has been on the forefront of putting an end to baby killing, has been saying this for years and years.

His radio show, What's Right, What's left, has been the watchman on the wall for most political and social issues for over 25 years.

His show which airs on 1220 AM from 9pm to midnight, monday through friday, has been viciously attacked by PLANNED PREDATORS, THE SOUTHERN POVERTY LAW CENTER, THE ACLU AND THE CLINTONS.

They are working to get him off the air as hard as they can.

Pastor Sanders and many people who hate baby killing, have been sucessful in stopping over 14 thousand abortions in the Cleveland area in the last 30 years.

His show is so cutting edge, he and his many guests have predicted events several years before they happen.

Pastor Sanders has been saying for years that the Democrats are the party of the Communists and that Communism has taken over Washington.

Only now has Limbaugh, Savage, Coulter and many others now admitting that Communists are in charge of the Democrats,and many other things that Pastor Sanders has been saying for over 10 years.

Thanks for the ping. The majority of abortions are committed against children of color.
