Call for abortionists to stop racial profiling

HT: JivinJehosphaphat

Stop racial profiling of abortion clinics
When a black motorist is stopped without cause, simply because of the color of his or her skin, people from all walks of life are understandably incensed.

Yet, when abortionists disproportionately set up shop in predominately African-American neighborhoods across Michigan, preying on vulnerable black women caught in an unwanted pregnancy, not so much as a whimper of outrage is heard. Not even in the black community does anyone seem to take notice or, if they do, work to expose this dirty little secret. ....

Of the 36 abortion clinics in Michigan, doesn't it seem unusual that nearly one-third are located in our three largest black-majority cities? ....

Beyond this, more than 80 percent of all abortion clinics are located in the 10 counties that boast the highest number of African-American residents. While these same 10 counties represent about 57 percent of the state's total population, they represent more than 92 percent of the African-American population. ....

If this isn't racial profiling, then what is?

No wonder African-Americans, while representing about 12 percent of the nation's population, account for 30 percent of all abortions. ....

When African Americans are concerned, the abortion industry obviously puts aside it's "safe and rare" mantra and instead replaces it with one that appears to embrace "numerous and near."

While we're at it, let's not forget that Black women are disproportionately likely to die from complications once they're on the abortion table.
