Pro-Abortion: What do you have to say about this disgusting statement?
"The most merciful thing that the large family does to one of it's members is to kill it." - Margaret Sanger, Founder of Planned Parenthood.
What in your right mind makes you vote for a president who is for the legalization of this disgusting act? Sure, protect women. But what about innocent babies who have no say whatsoever?

This statement is taken out of context from Margaret
Sanger's Woman and the New Race (Sanger, 1920).
Sanger was making an ironic comment — not a
prescriptive one — about the horrifying rate of infant
mortality among large families of ~~~early 20th-century~~~
urban America. The statement, as grim as the
conditions that prompted Sanger to make it,
accompanied this chart, illustrating the infant death
rate in 1920:
Deaths During First Year
1st born children 23% 7th born children 31%
2nd born children 20% 8th born children 33%
3rd born children 21% 9th born children 35%
4th born children 23% 10th born children 41%
5th born children 26% 11th born children 51%
6th born children 31% 12th born children 60%
~~~all I ask is that if you are going to call people (i.e. Your fellow citizens, brothers and sisters) who are pro-abortion "Disgusting", please at least educate yourself on the subject. It takes a compassionate intellect to understand the rights of the many, it takes no effort at all to make demands for the few.~~~

<Yawn>
The act is already legal, has been for decades. You can look that up.
The world did not end, and has gained children since then.
Abortions have been around since at least ancient Rome.
Illegal abortions kill both the child and the mother.
A pregnancy is not a live birth, it is the chance that a live birth would result, nothing more.
See: 'miscarriage', elsewhere.
Finally, you may never have an abortion.
I see no reason for you to decide that no one else may.

It sure beats making an unwed mother live with her 'consequence' and cutting off food stamps, Chip and everything else she might need. I know that is the right wing wet dream for some reason.

Margaret Sanger was a racist who wanted to keep "undesirables" (that meant Blacks, Eastern Europeans and others) from reproducing.

Well that's so crazy it makes me wonder if it's even true she said that is all I have to say about it. I mean maybe she did, but I don't know I have to wonder about that.
