The part about the babies not being white (true) is interesting to me because of this widespread idea (myth?) that the anti-choice movement is about increasing the white birthrate. Here in Ohio half the abortions are Black women, very likely due to their economic situation. Abolish abortion and we'll be overrun with babies of color born to women who can't afford reproductive care including contraception if they ban it or make it expensive or difficult to access. More affluent white women will just go abroad, or to Canada.
Agree Anastasia.. but there are lots of poor white women as well. In horrible situations where the same will happen. I just think it's messed up to have them pretend they care about kids.until they are born. Then they dont wanna hear it. All babies ,no matter their color, matter. The government doesn't have to the right to make decisions for all pregnancies.Nevermind creating such an awful situation.
Of course there are poor white women, but those middle class white women they think should be popping out babies are outnumbered by poor women of color. Like I said, here in Ohio 50% of abortions are black women.
