To dismiss the evidentiary value of this quote is to ignore the proposition for which it was offered in proof, that Sanger clearly was an avid proponent of eugenics, regardless of the policy area in which that support was manifested.

I think I see the point. This (see below) is definitely pro-eugenics and we should not support this policy. We should have 'open-doors' when it comes to immigration except on security issues. I was mixing eugenics up with euthanasia.

“Keep the doors of immigration closed to the entrance of certain aliens whose condition is known to be detrimental to the stamina of the race, such as feebleminded, idiots, morons, insane, syphilitic, epileptic, criminal, professional prostitutes, and others in this class barred by the immigration laws of 1924.”
