Abortion and eugenics
Abortion and eugenics are often very strongly related. Abortion is commonly used to kill those babies who happen to suffer from Down Syndrome [1][2][3] and other physical and mental issues, to remove said physical and mental issues from the human race. Eugenics is essentially the unethical removal of those with physical and mental issues to "purify" the human race.
Margaret Sanger, eugenics and racism
Margaret Sanger was an American feminist and eugenics activist who founded the American Birth Control League. She retired from the organization in 1940 and it eventually became Planned Parenthood. Her main success was in bringing discussions of Birth Control into the public arena. She blamed large families for all of the ills of society,[4] and argued that a major reason to promote birth control was to stop abortions.[5] She was vigorously denounced by the Catholic Church because of her position on birth control.
Minority Communities and Planned Parenthood

"Each day 1,786 African American children are aborted." According to the U.S. Census of 2006, African Americans are at 1.96 birth rate which is beneath the replacement level of 2.1.[7] At the continued rate, racism by abortion will decimate the black population of the U.S.
According to writer George Grant, the author of Killing Angel:
"During the 1980s when Planned Parenthood shifted its focus from community-based clinics to school-based clinics, it again targeted inner-city minority neighborhoods...Of the more than 100 school-based clinics that have opened nationwide in the last decade [1980s], none has been at substantially all-white schools....None has been at suburban middle-class schools. All have been at black, minority or ethnic schools.” [8]
Planned Parenthood itself reported that its abortions on minorities in 1991 were 42.7% of its total abortions.[9] However, during that time period, minorities comprised only 19.7% of the U.S. population.[9]
According to Cybercast News Service: "An analysis by the Cybercast News Service compared the location of Planned Parenthood abortion clinics with population data from the U.S. Census in 2000. The results appear to bolster the charge that the organization targets black communities."[10]
