NFL Player’s Unfiltered Comments on Abortion: ‘Ultimate Form of Racism’

You may or may not know the eugenics-based origins of Planned Parenthood, but the truth of it is not negotiable. Planned Parenthood founder Margaret Sanger had a plan eliminate the “less than” when she created the abortion giant that exists today. One group of people that didn’t sit well with her? African-Americans. And still today, black babies are killed in overwhelming numbers at Planned Parenthood clinics across the country.

Most famously, Sanger wrote this:

“We do not want word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population,”

Baltimore Ravens’ Tight-end Benjamin Watson is speaking out about it.

“I do know that blacks kind of represent a large portion of the abortions, and I do know that honestly the whole idea with Planned Parenthood and Sanger in the past was to exterminate blacks…and it’s kind of ironic that it’s working,” Watson said in a recent interview, referring to the more than 19 million black children that have been aborted since Roe v. Wade passed in 1973.

Watson, a married Christian with 5 children, has been outspoken about his pro-life views in the past, and feels it’s important to continue this crusade to speak out for the unborn. He says he knows many people in the NFL that agree with him, but refuse to step into the public eye about it. Because he is the minority that will be vocal, his message is even more important.

He has received some vocal support from big names like Tony Dungy, though:

I applaud my brother @BenjaminSWatson for speaking the truth on a controversial issue. Thank you. https://t.co/jZKGr5LJDn

“To me, being pro-life means that you hold all life very dear and you understand that all life was created by God and that because of that, life has internal, intrinsic value, whether it’s capable of living on its own at that point or whether it is capable of living on its own at the end of its life,” he said.

After the videos that exposed Planned Parenthood’s grotesque practice of dismembering, storing and selling unborn baby body parts two years ago, Watson addressed the issue in a way many pro-lifers could resonated with. He said that while the sale of human body parts was certainly horrific, it is the “legal practice that allows this to even be a possibility” is the real problem.

Planned Parenthood clinics are notoriously located in low-income, minority areas where many African-Americans reside, making it easier and less expensive for them to conclude that abortion is the answer. Planned Parenthood makes much of it’s money from abortions so targeting areas where they can score the most abortions is important to their business model.

The organization doesn’t like to talk about their eugenics-obsessed founder, but they sure are living our her ultimate dream.
