Washington Times ^ | 5/25/14 | Jessica Chasmar

Detroit women are turning to abortion at a staggering rate as poverty and crime grip the city, with more than one-third of pregnancies being terminated. According to 2012 figures, the most recent year for which data are available, 31 percent of pregnancies among Detroit residents ended in abortion — compared to about 14 percent for all of Michigan, The Detroit News reported. (Snip) Dr. Susan Schooley, chairwoman of the Department of Family Medicine at Henry Ford Hospital, said the statistics make Detroit look “more like some Third-World country than someplace in the United States.”

You’ll be one of the pious people praying for civil order when the money runs out and the welfare hoards you’ve allowed to multiply at the expense of the productive people decide to take the model of government they’ve perfected in Detroit and make it a national condition. Look around Detroit and tell me that you’ll look forward to that: fire and police response takes an hour to two. Areas of the city are now dark, because they cannot afford to keep the streetlights on. Houses in some areas of the city can be purchased for pennies on the dollar of valuation 25 years ago.Detroit isn’t a one-off. It is what is coming to most of the large urban centers.

You pious people, who keep clutching your Bibles, spouting moral indignation, fire and brimstone, have lost not only the battle on abortion with your tactics, you’ve effectively lost the war for limited government, free market capitalistic enterprise and a cohesive American with your tactics, which have done nothing to achieve your stated goal: the preservation of life. Why and how have you lost? Your tactics have created a huge base of voters who vote in lock-step uniformity for candidates who espouse left-wing policies and positions, especially abortion on demand. Your only hope for success now lies in depending on poor turnout among their numbers.

I'd ask you to describe those tactics, but I see that you've already been zotted. I guess your own tactics weren't very effective vis a vie remaining a FReeper!

You just killed off one of the last reasons I still visited FR.

(And everyone here seems so happy about it.)

NVDave was one of the smartest, shrewdest conservatives around, and actually willing to share his advice here. Prolifically.

Sigh.

Yeah, it’s a sad thing that we pious bible thumping losers don’t believe in abortion. Or infanticide. Or genocide. If you believe his advice for a final solution is a great idea, don’t let the door hit ya.
