As if abortion wasn’t bad enough, it seems Planned Parenthood, one of the leaders of abortion on demand, has systematically targeted African-American children for abortion. The reasoning behind such tactics? The national office of Planned Parenthood gave the following statement:

The (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) revealed that a shocking number of teenage African-American girls — nearly half — carry a sexually transmitted infection,” reads the statement. “This compares to an overall average rate for all teenage girls of at least one in four.

“The largest increases in the teen birthrate were reported for non-Hispanic black teens, whose overall rate rose five percent in 2006. In addition, African-American women are more likely to die of breast cancer than the general population.”

Hmmm…rather than teaching these kids about the dark realities of promiscuity (something Bill Cosby is now campaigning the African-American community about), Planned Parenthood’s solution is to abort more African-American children. Finally, the African-American community, activists, and churches are beginning to take notice that abortion is not a ‘white’ social issue, but rather a tragedy of unprecedented proportions.

If you think this is just an exaggeration, read this account and you’ll see the darkness and prejudice of pro-abortion Planned Parenthood:

But an investigation, undertaken by students at the University of California at Los Angeles newspaper, The Advocate, revealed troubling responses from Planned Parenthood staffers when asked by an actor, posing as a “donor,” if he could earmark his contribution for abortions for “black babies” only.

In one example, Autumn Kersey, vice president for marketing at Planned Parenthood of Idaho, is asked whether a donation can be specified “to help a minority group … like the black community, for example.”

“Certainly,” Kersey says in a taped response in which she sounds genuinely encouraged by the offer. “If you wanted to designate that your gift be used to help an African-American woman in need, then we would certainly make sure the gift as earmarked for that purpose.”

The caller responds: “Great, because I really faced trouble with affirmative action, and I don’t want my kids to be disadvantaged against black kids. I just had a baby; I want to put it in his name.”

Kersey responds, “Absolutely.”

The “donor” proceeds to proclaim that “the less black kids out there the better,” followed by, “understandable, understandable,” by Kersey, who laughed as if he were joking.

“Excuse my hesitation, this is the first time that I’ve had a donor call and make this kind of request, so I’m excited and want to make sure I don’t leave anything out,” she is recorded saying.

Kersey’s and other statements were culled from calls to Planned Parenthood clinics in six states. In each, the staff person answering the call expressed an interest in taking the donations despite the caller’s overtly racist commentary.
