Bennett Under Fire for Remark on Crime and Black Abortions
How does this relate to Katrina? Black life is insignificant in America. Statements, views like this prove it. How else can the former US Secretary of Education and drug czar say such things?
Bennett Under Fire for Remark on Crime and Black Abortions: "Bennett said 'maybe,' before referring to a book he said argued that the legalization of abortion is one of the reasons the crime rate has declined in recent decades. Bennett said he did not agree with that thesis.
'But I do know that it's true that if you wanted to reduce crime, you could -- if that were your sole purpose -- you could abort every black baby in this country, and your crime rate would go down,' Bennett said, according to an audio clip posted on Media Matters for America's Web site. 'That would be an impossible, ridiculous and morally reprehensible thing to do, but your crime rate would go down. So these far-out, these far-reaching, you know, extensive extrapolations are, I think, tricky.'"
