PRINCETON, N.J. -- It has become the talk among African American students at the prestigious Princeton Theological Seminary -- racially charged fliers and postings. All of it is apparently anti-abortion literature. Among the fliers was one that displayed a noose and another with the words "in the new klan lynching is for amateurs."...
"There was a lot of devastation for me, psychological damage, injury, because I saw this as social bullying," student Shirley Thomas said...
The fliers originate from various sources, pointing out the number of African American deaths by abortion. Student Katherine Timpte called the fliers "appalling and tragic and upsetting at all levels."
Another student, Alex Turpin, said he thought whoever was distributing the literature had a "right to voice their opinions," adding "personally, I wouldn't have done it in that way."
A statement from the seminary said it "does not tolerate racial discrimination" and "has policies that both protect freedom of speech and preclude racial harassment of any kind."
On Wednesday, students at the seminary will hold a forum to discuss the images.
"People need to understand that racism is not dead," Thomas said.

They are terrified that Planned Parenthood, a major player in Democratic politics, might think they had anything to do with this. How do they get jobs if the “right” people think they are “wrong” on the issue of abortion. Abortion has became a major shibboleth of liberalism.” ====
Nail meet hammer.
I’m sorry, how is this “racist”?
I think a real racist would encourage black people to get abortions (see Margaret Singer).
Just goes to show going to an Ivy league school doesn’t necessarily mean you’re smart.
Pointing out that abortion hits blacks harder because they abort their kids the most, is not racism.
I swear if conservatives were out there pushing abortion mills on blacks the left would be talking about the abortion holocaust on blacks, the abortion plantation, the abortion klan, keeping the blacks’ numbers down lying to them saying it’s for their benefit...
But the compassionate, smarter libs are behind it, so it must be a beautiful and ever so right thing.
This poor child Shirley Thomas, isn’t upset at all about all of the black genocide going on around her, but she cannot sleep when someone passes out a flier mentioning that the Klan were pikers compared to the black mothers who are murdering their unborn.
Wow, talk about straining a gnat.
Methinks they protest too much. They don’t want to deal with the fact that black genocide is being committed, but they don’t want to deal with it because to do so would be to limit their “freedom” to copulate without consequence.
So, they get all faux outraged at the messenger.
being opposed to abortion is now “bullying”??
Baby killers get psychotic when faced with what they do.
Princeton Theological Seminary is not a bastion of Christianity by any stretch of the imagination.
Who is being racist??
Pointing out the racism of the abortion industry is racism??
eh??
In my opinion there is a difference in getting out the facts about how abortion has ravaged the black community and putting out fliers from “Klanned Parenthood”. Do some of you really not see that?

No, I don’t see any difference. None at all. Have you been to http://klannedparenthood.com/ ?
I’ve had this site as a favorite for years. You should check it out. Then come back and tell us why this bothers you.
Doesn’t bother me at all. I think the message is great there. It is the package it is in.
If I were a black person and someone handed me a flier with a cartoon Klansman on it I would probably have a problem with it. There is no need for it.
No, it is not, it is practiced by the abortion industry that targets poor minorities, who the Planned Parenthood founder wanted to eliminate from our culture by killing their children.
Perhaps the way to drive the point home is to get an expendable Congressman to introduce a bill to outlaw “white abortions” only. /s
How about
“What do this”
(cartoon of Klanner in hood)
“and this”
(cartoon of abortion facility)
“have in common”?
I applaud those that stand for Life.
ping
As it should be Katherine!
I don’t think the Klan ever dreamed of being able to kill millions of black babies.
