Afterthoughts

After the March, I noticed that the March for Life wasn't reported on the mainstream news media. I wasn't surprised about that, of course. I was surprised to find out that 90% of Down Syndrome babies diagnosed prenatally are aborted. That is Eugenics. That is Genocide. Why doesn't the news report this stuff? See this article:

News Media Ignores March for Life

Having two children with genetic illnesses, I have given much thought to the practice of eugenics in our society. Margaret Sanger, founder of Planned Parenthood, was a big Eugenicist in her day. She wanted to "exterminate coloreds, the poor and the unfit." Have we really come any further than the bigots of her day? I don't think so-- we exterminate babies in the womb based on genetic information. Read the KIDS blog for more information on the prenatal killing of Down Syndrome kids.

Something that those practicing eugenics don't seem to realize is that none of us is genetically perfect. We all have mutations, polymorphisms and flaws. Most of us walking around are just lucky that our genetic defects aren't as prominent. We may have an increased risk for many types of cancer..... should we have been exterminated in our mother's womb because we MIGHT suffer and die from a rare cancer or illness?

Look at the picture of my three boys and tell me which one you think I should have gotten rid of. Can you tell by looking at them which of the three have two genetic illnesses? Can you see Shwachman-Diamond Syndrome or Mitochondrial Disease? Which one has a life not worth living because of genetic illnesses?

I think the news media ignores the Right to Life movement because it can't look at the ugliness of eugenics and it can't face that we are no better now than we were 100 years ago when Margaret Sanger preached her gospel of eugenic hatred....then Hitler did the same..... We are no better off than when Martin Luther King, Jr fought for civil rights for blacks. I wish that people could look at Planned Parenthood for what it really is-- and look at where it started. Its founder wanted to exterminate blacks! Now they build clinics in poor neighborhoods -- when have you see a PP clinic in a rich neighborhood?

In NYC, 41% of all black babies are aborted. 41%! We need to be the voice for the voiceless and we need to let people know the truth about the mission of Planned Parenthood.
