Baltimore Ravens tight end <a href=\"\/news\/nfls-ben-watson-planned-parenthood-founder-wanted-to-exterminate-blacks\/\">Ben Watson<\/a> recently discussed his view of Planned Parenthood&#8217;s &#8220;engagement&#8221; of minorities in an interview with Turning Point Pregnancy Resource Center.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;&#8230; [H]onestly the whole idea with Planned Parenthood and [Margaret] Sanger in the past was to exterminate blacks, and it\u2019s kind of ironic that it\u2019s working,&#8221; said Watson. &#8220;We are buying it hook, line, and sinker, like it\u2019s a great thing&#8230; abortion saddens me, period;\u00a0but it seems to be something that is really pushed on minorities and provided to minorities especially as something that they should do.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As Live Action News <a href=\"\/news\/researchers-abortion-should-be-listed-as-a-major-cause-of-death-in-statistics\/\">recently reported<\/a>, researchers from the University of North Carolina (Charlotte) found that minorities are impacted significantly by abortion:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">&#8230; [W]hen added back into death statistics, abortion accounted for just 16.4% of white deaths, but 61.1% of black deaths and 64% of Hispanic deaths\u2014 more than three and four times, respectively\u2014 the latter ethnic groups\u2019 combined death tolls \u201cfrom all diseases of the heart and malignant neoplasms.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">They further found that \u201cfor Hispanic[s] and blacks, abortion deaths were 79.3 and 57.5 times the number of homicide deaths, respectively.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Dr. Kenyn Cureton of the Family Research Council told LifeSite News that he believes a counter-effort is necessary: &#8220;If Planned Parenthood leaders are encouraging their constituents to vote, certainly pastors and church leaders should do the same if we ever hope to protect human life in our laws.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Planned Parenthood&#8217;s involvement in\u00a0the upcoming presidential election is not limited to their endorsement of Hillary Clinton.
