Los Angeles, CA (LifeNews.com) -- A second report from a student-run magazine at UCLA finds more Planned Parenthood abortion businesses accepting overtly racist donations. After the first report showed a Planned Parenthood in Idaho accepting money from someone who wanted to reduce the number of black babies, centers in Oklahoma and New Mexico followed suit.

The Advocate magazine told LifeNews.com on Wednesday that it released another video exposing the racist attitudes at the nation's largest abortion business.

Posing as a donor, UCLA law student James O’Keefe called facilities in Oklahoma and New Mexico and asked to make a donation specifically to be use to kill African-American unborn children.

The abortion center staff are more than happy to accommodate his request, with one Planned Parenthood employee saying, "for whatever reason, we'll accept the money."

The magazine told LifeNews.com that Irene Gray of Planned Parenthood in Albuquerque, New Mexico took the call from O’Keefe last summer.

Gray replied in sympathetic tones, “Yes, yes, it’s a strange time for sure” to the caller’s rant about affirmative action and how he thinks there is a need for fewer black people because they compete with white Americans for admission to schools.

When asked if the organization takes donations specifically to abort black babies, another Planned Parenthood staffer from Tulsa, Susan Riggs, answered, “We can definitely designate it for an African-American.”

Lila Rose, editor of The Advocate, told LifeNews.com, “This new video demonstrates a disturbing trend of racism at Planned Parenthood."

“Planned Parenthood has no shame in accepting donations intended to purposely abort minority populations," she added.

Rose says the donations are yet another reason for federal and state governments to stop providing Planned Parenthood with taxpayer funds.

"It’s a jolting reminder that abortion is a big business, regardless of what the politicians and the special interest groups say and given that Planned Parenthood receives over $300 million in federal funding every year, it’s time Congress investigate these extremely disturbing business practices,” she explained.

Rose called on groups like the ACLU and NAACP to call Planned Parenthood on the carpet for the donations and ask them to stop promoting racism.

Nobody should be surprised by this. That is the reason Margaret Sanger founded the organization.

I cannot believe that these people did not hang up on this prospective “donor.” But then again, anyone in the business of murder probably doesn’t have a problem with a little thing like racism or hate, eh?

Used to be, if people wanted to express their racist attitudes they had do dress up in ridiculous costumes and run around in the dark. Now days all they need is a credit card.

Man who cares? We all know that anyone who supports abortions is either seriously misinformed or soulless. It’s no great secret that some 30 million black babies have been aborted in the last few decades. Calling Planned Parenthood racist is akin to calling Adolf Hitler or Pol Pot a slob.

Pray for an end to abortion and the conversion of America to a mindset of life!

I suppose it’s useful to get current confirmation, but since Planned Parenthood was founded by racist eugenicist Margaret Sanger, a connection it has never denied, and in fact celebrates from time to time,

and the stats on abortions performed over the years indicate that the incidence of abortions of blacks per thousand live births consistently runs between 200% and 300% higher than the incidence for Caucasians,

[table 112], this report is merely a blinding glimpse of the obvious.

What's amazing is that Planned Parenthood still brags about its founder, Margaret Sanger, who openly and stridently advocated "racial hygiene." They still call their corporate awards "maggies" in her honor.

Read Jonah Goldberg’s “Liberal Fascism” ——it’ll make the hair on the back of your neck stand up straight-—and stay there. “Liberalism” has some very sick and bizarre roots.
