Where did she go, 'The Aryan Adoption Agency'? Does this sound like bunko to anyone?
Why do you think there are holes in that story? These are women who had abortions many years ago, not current college students.
Maybe you should do some research on what the common practices of adoption agencies have been in past decades. These are not current college students talking.
Let's say this woman was 100 years old. The Catholic Church and its affiliates was not avising women to have abortions in 1920 either.
Presumably the event was planned with the idea of countering the barrage of anti-abortion activism that pervades this country. How many people on FR would have a problem with a campus political or religious group staging an event which focused on the negative aspects of Islam?
She didn't say the Catholic Church advised her to have an abortion. She said an adoption agency told her they couldn't take her baby because it was half black.
I understand that. I reject the idea that Catholicism or strict anti-abortion beliefs had any effect on her, because she decided not to chose a Catholic agency and went ahead with the abortion after one bad experience. This doesn't sound like desperation to me. Sounds more like a convenient excuse.
My BS meter just got pegged when I read this line right here, she is so full of $%!T her eyes are brown.
I guess whatever you have to tell yourself to get to sleep at night.

She said that she had an abortion in a clinic with protestors outside and that she was in college when she had her kid murdered.
In other words the oldest she could be is roughly 55 right now.
But most likely younger than 50.
She claims to be Catholic from a devout Catholic household. Catholic adoption agencies have never had racial exclusion policies (heck, one of my high school teachers years ago was himself an adopted biracial child and he was born in Pennsylvania in the 1930s and raised Catholic by a white family), and every "devout" Catholic can easily get in touch with a Catholic adoption agency.
She is a complete and utter liar and I challenge her and any of her supporters to document her absolutely preposterous claim.
That's ridiculous. According to the details she provided the earliest she sought the abortion was 1973. It was already illegal then for adoption agencies to practice racially discriminatory policies or refuse children based on race.
What a liar this vile woman is.
It's not choice, it's a baby,
and when you kill it, it is murder.
Where does it say that the agency was Catholic? For all we know the agency told her that a biracial (black/white) baby would be impossible to place. Lots of states/agencies had policies back in the old days where black children (including half-black children) had to be placed with black parents. You said that your high school teacher was biracial, but not whether he was part black.
Of course, none of this excuses what she did. It was her own flesh and blood, she could have found a way to take care of the baby, even if she had to leave the child with the state.
Yeah, but have you SEEN these women? They don't exactly look like models! Not to mention their reprehensible views.
Ever notice most of the women that demonstrate at these pro-abortion rallies are women most men wouldn't screw if their life depended on it?
Why do you think she was referring to a Catholic adoption agency? Nothing in the article suggests that. If she was in college, in a white area, and didn't have a car (and few coelge students did in those days), and obviously didn't have access to the Internet, she probably had access to only one or two agencies, and had no real way of finding out whether policies were likely to differ at different agencies.
Let's take a step back here:
Do you believe that this is a Conservative website, or a Libertarian one? If you believe it is the former, why would you be debefending the free speech of NARL activists?
But it was possible, back when abortions had to be approved physician's committees, if you were a white woman, to state that the baby's father was black, and get the abortion approved.
The face of progressivism...
