When did i ever mention the word "abortion"?

My post has as much relevance to the topic as you making an issue about the alleged murderer's skin color.

Absolutely zero.

I have done so - and have no desire to make this an abortion thread.

I just question your hang-up on race.

Get off your high horse. Go ahead and do a search of my posts with references to blacks and crime and you'll see I've talked about that numerous times. But I do it in a non-racist manner. I don't do it to demonize black people, but to point out there are problems in their community that need to be solved. You're just as bad as the liberals who refuse to admit the problems in the black community and blame everything on racism, except you do it in reverse. This crime was committed by individuals against individuals. Race has nothing to do with it.

You're so big on telling Harrier to stay on topic, so if you want to make a thread about blacks being three times more likely to commit violent crimes, then do it in another thread. This one was started about a specific incident. And there is zero evidence that race played any part whatsoever in this incident.

So if I link to a heinous crime committed by a White person, what does that say about every White person in America? Nothing!

The links to random stories support the stats. I mean please don't act dense. We all know Blacks commit a disproportionate amount of crime in fact Blacks males are 7-10 times more likely to commit murder than any other group.

And if it is found that the mother is linked to these idiots, then what? Why is EVERYTHING about race with you? Everything is about bashing blacks.
