A new billboard, three stories high, has gone up in New York and has the proaborts sputtering. The billboard tells the simple truth:
“The most dangerous place for an African American is in the Womb.”
Evidently Planned Parenthood, which operates 78% of their abortion centers in inner-city neighborhoods is having a reaction akin to a vampire caught in the open at dawn. They are accusing Billboard sponsor, Life Always, of playing the race card:
“These billboards are offensive and disturbing. The creators are using divisive messaging around race to restrict access to medical care.”
New York Public Advocate Bill De Blasio is in danger of having a cerebral vascular accident, demanding that the billboard be taken down:
“This billboard simply doesn’t belong in our city. The ad violates the values of New Yorkers and is grossly offensive to women and communities of color.”
Actually, Mr. De Blasio, with 60% of Black pregnancies having ended in abortion in our fair city during 2009, the consciences of decent New Yorkers have been shocked, and people want to know why 1,500 black babies are aborted for every 1,000 born alive. How then, can this billboard be representative of anything but the genocidal truth? This ad does not violate the values of New Yorkers. We like our free speech, and we like it when racism and genocide are uncovered in our midst, and then eradicated.
“Grossly Offensive” describes a Public Advocate who doesn’t think that a 60% abortion rate in blacks deserves some advocacy in order to get a reduction.
De Blasio said: “The ad violates the values of New Yorkers and is grossly offensive to women and communities of color.”
Mr. De Blasio, I am a New Yorker. You may have the title Public Advocate but you do not speak for me or my values. If you take offense at a genuine effort to protect black children, that is you, not me, speaking. With all due respect the loss of humanity, black humanity, unborn humanity, people of color humanity — the loss, the destruction, is outrageous, disgusting, and inhumane. Speak for yourself. Stick to affordable housing and secondhand smoke issues. In my judgement you don’t know anything about values of New Yorkers and you were not elected to represent them.

The facts speak for themselves. The idea that this Billboard is designed as a racist ploy or to attack African-American women is a diversion from facing the truth. Are the readers familiar w this quote:Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg notified the nation Roe V Wade was important because Roe was the case that was going to enable us “to get rid of the populations we don’t want too many of”.
The news out of New York City IS shocking. According to the Bureau of Vital Statistics 41% of the pregnancies in the City end in abortion. Even more shocking is the fact that more African-American babies are aborted than are born alive. For every 1,000 African-American babies born in New York City, 1,489 die by abortion. In New York City,for every conception in the African-American community, 60% end in abortion. 46.7% of the abortions in New York City are performed on African American women when they are only 27% of the NYC Population. Why is this? Some thing is VERY wrong! It should ENRAGE ALL New Yorkers that this loss of life is happening under their watch! I thought that NYC was a progressive City where we can freely discuss matters of importance. Is this perhaps an inconvenient truth? Justice demands an answer.
Much is known about the pain of childbirth but that sign is about the pain of abortion. Can you imagine how many women who have had abortions will look at that beautiful little girl and feel that pain. God is at work in that sign.
What about following up that billboard with one with statistics?
You’re right, Yank!!
It’s 6:06 pm and the sign is down.

The friends of Margaret Sanger thank Rev Sharpton, Letitia James (city council) and Planned Parenthood.
Thanks for the link, Mary. This is disturbing:
We received a complaint that some people who objected to the billboard were harassing the wait staff of a nearby restaurant,” said Hal Kilshaw, a VP for Lamar Advertising. “We heard that there would be a protest tomorrow. There were concerns about problems for people who live or work in the area. That’s why we chose to take it down. We are not taking the copy down because we don’t think the copy should have been accepted in the first place or that it is too controversial.”
How ridiculous. Why would anyone “harass” waiters in a nearby restaurant and connect that to a billboard unrelated to that restaurant? That’s so absurd it’s ludicrous. Obviously the billboard was stunningly effective; if it had not been there would have been little reaction from Sharpton and his cronies.
I do hope they do not give up on using this ad. It’s the opposite of “grossly offensive,” it’s beautiful, poignant and perfectly illustrates just who isn’t being allowed to live.
So is Lamar Advertising going to give the billboard sponsor a partial refund? If I spent that kind of money (I used to work in advertising) to have my ad taken down after a day, you’d better believe I’d be screaming for a refund.
