Look, abortion is bad...racism is bad...but this is the STUPIDEST argument I’ve ever, ever read. It’s over the top things like this that sets your cause back.

Dr. King said:
"Abortion and racism are both symptoms of a fundamental human error," stated Dr. King. "The error is thinking that when someone stands in the way of our wants, we can justify getting that person out of our lives. Abortion and racism stem from the same poisonous root, selfishness."

To which you responded:

Are you saying that racism (trying to hold other races back) IS NOT based in selfishness? Are you saying that abortion (killing a baby for convenience) IS NOT based in selfishness?

You actually think that this is "stupid" and "over the top"? If you want to see stupid and over the top maybe you should go back and read what the RINOs in WAnkerville say.

In other words it is not your cause, is it Hildy?

Please be sure to read all the posts. I’m not entirely sure you were pinged to all the posts about you. I’ll just sit here and eat popcorn for the time being, but if the temptation gets too great, I reserve the right to jump in.

Well, abortion in America has snuffed a phenomenal 50,000,000 victims, which even slavery didn't do. So the analogy isn't perfect, but few analogies are.

Her main point--- that both involve the absurd concept that the victim is somewhat subhuman, or "not a person in the full sense of the word" --- is exactly right. Remember the concept that a slave is 3/5 of a person for the purpose of the census?

Can you point out exactly what parts Dr. King wrote that are “stupid” and “over the top?”

Ah...so those noble, noble abortionists would make a liviing turning children into medcal waste, but they'd never let a racist thought enter their heads, right?
