An Anti-abortion billboard under fire again



We read:
"An anti-abortion billboard campaign using a likeness of US President Barack Obama to target African-American women has angered women's groups in Chicago.

Some 30 billboards declaring "Every 21 minutes our next possible leader is aborted" are being placed in predominantly African-American neighbourhoods in Obama's adopted hometown.

The Texas pastor behind the campaign by Life Always said he wants to "encourage reflection" about the high abortion rate among African-Americans. "For too long the scourge of abortion has been hidden behind political correctness," said Stephen Broden, who is African-American. "Liberal interests have deceived our women into believing that the answer to poverty is to murder their babies."

Planned Parenthood of Illinois called the billboards "an offensive and condescending effort to stigmatise and shame African-American women while attempting to limit their ability to make private, personal medical decisions".

It is certainly true that black women are big users of abortion

How does a billboard "limit their ability to make private, personal medical decisions"?

Free speech for me but not for thee, apparently.

Are they also pleased that Hitler's parents didn't go in for abortion? For every "good" person that might have been aborted, a possibly equal number of "bad" people never got to be born either.

The fact is, producing babies, from multiple and often unknown fathers, is the 3rd largest industry in the black community, right behind #1, dealing drugs, and #2, suing White America. Every time a black female spits out another kid, that's an automatic increase in her welfare check.

Why the American people should not be allowed to vote;

"As President Barack Obama sought Monday to explain to the nation the U.S. military action in Libya which he authorized, past associations between Libyan dictator Moammar Gadhafi and U.S. Muslim organizations, some of which have been linked to Obama, are attracting attention. …

In 2009, the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) asked the Libyan ruler for what was estimated to be tens of millions of dollars to distribute one million copies of the Koran to Americans, particularly government officials. …

The meeting was said to have been one of several between leading American Muslims and Gadhafi. They included leaders of the Nation of Islam, with which Barack Obama was associated in the 1990s, specifically in assisting with the organization of the 1995 Million Man March. …

A minister and attorney has asserted that [rabidly racist Nation of Islam leader and openly admired associate of Obama's 20-year spiritual mentor Jeremiah "G-d America" Wright, Louis "Calypso Louie"] Farrakhan was a major influence on both Obama and the black community. E. W. Jackson, bishop of the Exodus Faith Ministries, cited Obama's role as organizer and "enthusiastic supporter" of the Nation of Islam leader during the so-called "Million Man March" in Washington in 1995.
"Obama clearly has Muslim sensibilities," Jackson, who does not claim a personal friendship with Obama, said. "He sees the world and Israel from a Muslim perspective. His construct of 'The Muslim World' is unique in modern diplomacy. It is said that only The Muslim Brotherhood and other radical elements of the religion use that concept. It is a call to unify Muslims around the world."

3:35 PM Stalin did a lot to get rid of Hitler, so are you calling him a "good" person? A pity his parents didn't choose abortion or at least use a condom more often.
