I would have. Williams be absolutely wrong. It's ridiculous to say abortion is wrong then continue on and say well if we did then crime would drop and if only done for those reasons, morality aside.
Bennett was saying the discussion (from the book Freakonomics) that abortion is bad because, saying so many working bodies were not born that we can't support Social Securtity, is not a good way to promote Pro-Life.
He stated that using this could cause people to take the opposite stance.
If all black babies were aborted, it would lower the crime rate. (Notice how wacky it sounds? He has explained that he took the most ridiculous example he could think of). He then stated the reprehensable, etc.
His crime was using the word, "Black".
I get the same thing when I talk like my sister. When I go with her to get a good deep conditioning at her favorite shop, I forget I'm not black.
Then I get around other people who don't know what my family ties are. I find myself sounding like those old liberal whites in the 60's. You know, "Some of my best friends are black." types.
I'm saying, "You know, my sister, my nieces, my husband's nieces, my Great-Niece and........all black!" (it sounds stupid doesn't it?)
The only thing with me is that I'm actually related to my family. I'm not parading them out to prove I'm not a racist.
I do understand the racism in the country. But it's hard sometimes to be forced to think about color so as not to offend someone.
I don't see black. I see the color I have to pay a tanning bed shop for.
