I’m a little vague on the modern/post modern arguement here. No offense was taken.

I agree that this isn’t a problem confined to Blacks, but I do believe there is a lot to be gained from focusing on that segment of abortions.

Nothing plays in this culture today, like something that involves race. I guess I’m guilty of using a play right out of the leftist play-book, but it is for a good cause this time.

May I recommend to you this ~6000 word essay? http://www.mises.org/reasonpapers/pdf/28/rp_28_8.pdf, It is a good discussion evoked by a full length book: Explaining Postmodernism: Skepticism and Socialism from Rousseau to Foucault

Here is an excerpt from the book:

And here is a great short explanation from the discussion linked for how postmodernist behave. DO:Nothing plays in this culture today, like something that involves race.

Yep. That is not a bug; it is a feature of postmodernism, as reflected in Instead of individual identity and autonomy—various race, sex, and class group-isms.

DO:I guess I’m guilty of using a play right out of the leftist play-book, but...

When you find yourself playing by your opponents rules, how can you ever imagine that will ever be good for you?
Be careful old friend. I think you may be thinking you are thereby hoisting your opponents by their own petard, but you are rewarding the cynical devils who always believed that you would prove to behave like them.

Your individualism is attacked whenever the individualism (and posterity) of any of you innocent brothers is attacked. No racial lines are immune; that some are more vulnerable is symptomatic of the deadly divisiveness of our opponents. In that lies a unifying fact.
