2010 Rally for Life in TN- and Eugenics -- the evil roots of abortion


 TN  Rally for Life 2010.....thoughts
TN Right to Life had another good rally on Sunday, January 24th. I could not find anything about it in the MSM. I don't know why I bother to look. They never cover it or do so with such a short clip that if you blink you miss it. I saw nothing in the papers.  I remember one year writing an angry letter to the Tennessean stating that 1,000 people showed up on a cold January Sunday afternoon on the steps of the Capital with the Bishop of TN and Richard Land among others addressing the crowd and not one word in the Tennessean but let 20 pro aborts show up and they are all over it. He wrote back and apologized and said they would try to do better in the future. But of course they don't. Nary a word. 

Oh well, I attend every year and it is always inspiring. Hard to keep topping yourself. This year it was indoors at the Sheraton. I appreciated the comfort of being indoors but sometimes it is more exciting to be outside on the Capital steps. I am not good at estimating but the room was STO so maybe 7-800 in attendance. There were a couple of  people doing private videos  there, one who was making an HBO documentary.  Citizen  documentaries are replacing the MSM anyway.

The speaker was Rev Walter Hoye from CA who gained notoriety in the pro life world when he was arrested for peaceful sidewalk counseling in front of an abortion mill. It was quite a story. As an African American pastor, he said one sentence that I cannot forget.....he talked about the African American community being so hard hit by abortion that they are not replacing themselves. "For every 100 births to African Americans, there are 77 abortions." Wow, what a sobering thought!  But that is exactly what Margaret Sanger intended when she founded Planned Parenthood. She would be proud. Here is an article about the documentary Maafa 21. It should be required viewing by all members of Congress....


Eugenics -- the evil roots of abortion
A documentary and expose' on the abortion business has caught the attention of some members of Congress.
The documentary, Maafa 21,  traces the history of Planned Parenthood to its founder, Margaret Sanger, who believed in eugenics -- controlling and eliminating certain population groups, especially including minorities such as African-Americans. Mark Crutcher of Life Dynamics produced the film. He says the project has proven itself effective after having been shown and discussed by a number of churches and media outlets.

"We're seeing committed people who are on the pro-choice side coming over saying, 'This thing has totally, completely turned me around on the abortion issue. I never knew any of this stuff was going on. I never knew anything about this eugenics and black genocide aspect of abortion,'" explains Crutcher.
The documentary has been shown to members of Congress and their staff twice, and it has made an impact as the producer says the film flies in the face of the argument that a woman has a right to do what she wants with her body.
"Every day in this battle we hear them say, 'Well, this issue is not really abortion. The issue is do we trust women in privacy and reproductive freedom' -- and all that nonsense. [But] what you quickly see when you study this is that's just marketing hype," Crutcher comments. "The reality is that abortion is about eugenics and black genocide."
He adds that an irrefutable argument for that is made in the documentary, Maafa 21.
