Virtuous, my ass

"But I do know that it's true that if you wanted to reduce crime, you could, if that were your sole purpose, you could abort every black baby in this country, and your crime rate would go down," said Bennett, author of "The Book of Virtues."

Then Bennett went on to do some serious backpedalling and try to do some damage control by clarifying that his statement was meant to show that abortion as a means of crime control is reprehensible.

aha!  what i want to know is, who is arguing for abortion as crime control?

as a sociologist, i can say that in all probability, if you aborted every baby of any single ethnicity, religion, sex, topographical, geographical, socio-economic status, etc (see where i'm going with this?  any single any division of anything), well the crime rate would go down.  no shit sherlock.  that's because crime exists at all levels in all levels  of the social-stratosphere, so to say.
