But this is unacceptable logic. Days after the advertisements were posted, an order came from the Assistant Secretary of Health to remove them. The fact is that in passing judgment on the lives of their babies, women who choose to abort are often passing judgment on their own lives as well. The risk is even worse for African-American women, who are 4.7 times as likely to get breast cancer after the age of 50 if they've had an abortion. And that's the third secret.
Abortion is racist.
It has been ever since Margaret Sanger plotted to shrink the black population in this country by convincing blacks to limit their families through any means necessary, including contraception and abortion. Her Negro Project never reached any official status, but it may as well have. The whole U.S. black population is around 31 million. So what could have been 25 percent of black America is wiped out without a trace. Even though blacks make up only 12 percent of the nation's population, they account for 30 percent of its abortions.
