2. The worst part of Bennett's comments
was his assumptions that Afro-Americans are responsible for a significant percentage of crime in this country. His entire hypothetical bullshit was not based on a serious statistical breakdown of crime in the US. Sadly that is what all but Al Sharpton missed.
Aborting the babies of an ethnic group which only represents 12% of the population is like a teacup in the ocean. The entire premise was based on bullshit.
The major crime committed by Afro-Americans is smoking some herb. US prisons are full of poor people -black and white- who had no money to find decent lawyers. The real big crimes are committed by rich white men. Sadly Bennett et al have bought into the illusions promoted on MSM for decades about Afro-Americans and crime.
Tell him to produce the stats then we'll all be able to decide who to abort.
