“… upon pain of the highest displeasure, to assent to no law by which the importation of slaves should be in any respect prohibited or obstructed.” — King George III ¹

An Early Violation of Conscience

“In 1562 John Hawkins, an English navigator, seeing the want of slaves in the West Indies, determined to enter upon the piratical traffic. Several London gentlemen contributed funds liberally for the enterprise. Three ships were provided, and with these and 100 men Hawkins sailed to the coast of Guinea, where, by bribery, deception, treachery, and force, he procured at least 300 negroes and sold them to the Spaniards in Hispaniola, or Santo Domingo, and returned to England with a rich freight of pearls, sugar, and ginger.” —  Paul McWhorter, CEO, Son of the South ²


Queen Elizabeth I ordered Sir John Hawkins in 1652 to begin the slave trade and, joined by his cousin, Sir Francis Drake, they began bringing Negroes from Africa to the New World. ³ The British Crown then spent years forcing their colonies in North America to accept slaves. For example, the British Crown overruled the Georgia Colony’s (i.e., the “Province of Georgia”) strong objection to the slave trade, which from 1735 to 1751 ⁴ had banned slavery as a moral evil, an economic blow to the White working class, and a security threat, given the imminent danger of slave uprisings, especially with the Spanish territory of Florida, ruled by the Captaincy General of Cuba, the Viceroyalty of New Spain next door. ⁵ However, motivated by the enormous profits generated from the Atlantic “Triangular Slave Trade” that operated from the late 16th to early 19th centuries, ⁶ the Norman ruling class of England put their pen to paper and ordered that slavery, regardless of how regrettable, repellent, revolting, revulsive, repugnant, repulsive and reprehensible the practice was to the conscience, not be abolished in the colonies. ⁷ So on on Monday, December 10th, 1770, while in council King George III issued under his own hand the following command to the Governor of Virginia:

“… upon pain of the highest displeasure, to assent to no law by which the importation of slaves should be in any respect prohibited or obstructed.” — King George III

“He Has Waged Cruel War Against Human Nature Itself …”

“While the first load of slaves sailed up the James River in Virginia in 1619 and thus [introduced slavery in America], few learn about the first slaves that arrived in the Massachusets Colony set up by the Christian Pilgrims and Purtians. When The slave ship arrived in Massachusets, the ship’s officers were arrested and imprisoned and the kidnapped slaves were returned to Africa at the colony’s expense.” — David Barton ⁸


In 1772 the Virginia Assembly earnestly discussed the question: “How shall we get rid of the great evil?” Thomas Jefferson (the principal author of the United States Declaration of Independence, a slave owner himself and the third President of the United States from 1801 to 1809), ⁹ Henry Lee III (the 9th Governor of Virginia and Father of Robert E. Lee, General of the Confederate Army), ¹⁰ and other leading men anxiously desired to rid the colony of the slave trade stated: “The interest of the country manifestly requires the total expulsion of them (i.e., the enslaved Black population) back to Africa.” ¹¹ The Virginia Assembly pleaded with King George III to remove all restraints on their efforts to stop the importation of slaves, which they labeled “a very pernicious commerce.” ¹² Clearly, in this matter, the colony of Virginia was not alone as they represented the sentiments of all the colonies. King George III knew this, but nevertheless choose to stand “in the path of humanity,” evaded a reply and “made himself the pillar of the colonial slave trade.” ¹³ The comport of the King caused Thomas Jefferson to write as follows in his first draft of the Declaration of Independence:

“He has waged cruel war against human nature itself, violating its most sacred rights of life and liberty in the persons of a distant people who never offended him, capturing and carrying them into slavery in another hemisphere, or to incur a miserable death in their transportation thither. This piratical warfare, the opprobrium of infidel powers, is the warfare of the ‘Christian‘ King of Great Britain. Determined to keep open a market where men should be bought and sold, he has prostituted his negative [his right to veto laws] for suppressing every legislative attempt to prohibit or to restrain this execrable commerce.” ¹⁴

Unfortunately, this paragraph was removed from the Declaration of Independence before the committee submitted it to a vote of the Congress.

How Shall We Get Rid Of The Great Evil?

“Mr. Obama has issued a veto threat on that bill, saying House Republicans’ cuts are unacceptable, and Senate Democrats said the non-spending provisions of the bill — such as restrictions on Planned Parenthood and on Obama administration rules and regulations — will also have to be struck.” — The Washington Times ¹⁵


Abortion is the deliberate termination of an innocent human life. Like slavery was, abortion is legal in all fifty (50) states, through all nine (9) months of pregnancy, for virtually any reason at all. ¹⁶ Like slavery was, abortion is now mainstream terminating at least 1.2 million lives a year or 3,285 lives everyday. ¹⁷ Like slavery was, abortion is justified by defining the child in the womb as a “non-person” in order to exempt and exclude the child in the womb from the protection of “persons” (i.e., human beings) guaranteed under the United States constitution. ¹⁸ Like slavery was, abortion is considered by many as a “Right,” invisibly documented in the constitution of the United States of America and inexplicably defended by United States Supreme Court. ¹⁹ Like slavery was, abortion is backed by publicly elected officials, even to extent that the President of the United States of America was and is willing to shutdown the entire United States government to protect the taxpayer funding of Planned Parenthood, the largest abortion provider in the country. ²⁰ Like slavery was, abortion is very profitable. ²¹ According to Planned Parenthood’s Annual Report for 2009-2010, Planned Parenthood boasts a total budget of $1.04 billion and enjoys an excess of revenue over expenses (i.e., profits) of 18.5 million dollars. ²² Planned Parenthood continues to report $513 million in current assets and $570 million in property, equipment and an endowment while showing $184 million in liabilities for buildings and other debts. ²³ Further still, Planned Parenthood reports 46% of her total budget comes from taxpayer dollars in the form of government funding. ²⁴ Like slavery was, abortion is for many a violation of conscience at the highest level of our humanity, a cruel war against human nature itself and a great evil. ²⁵ Like slavery was, abortion is being ruthlessly shoved down our throats by corrupt men and women who are in power and utterly devoid of conscience. ²⁶ Like slavery was, abortion is, to our immeasurable and illimitable shame, the product of Christians “At Ease in Zion” who foolishly trust in the “Mountain of Samaria” instead of the “Mountain of Transfiguration.” ²⁷

“How shall we get rid of the great evil?” — The 1772 Virginia Assembly, earnestly debating the question of slavery. ²⁸

Today, like slavery was, abortion is “a very pernicious commerce.”

Today, like King George III stood, President Barack Hussein Obama stands “in the path of humanity and made himself the pillar” of America’s abortion business.

The question before us now, is the same question the Virginia Assembly earnestly debated in 1772, “how shall we get rid of the great evil?” So what did they do? Four (4) years later, on July 4th, 1776 the thirteen (13) British colonies, followed the dictates of their own conscience, separated themselves from the amoral authority of King George III and boldly declared themselves independent. ²⁹

Today, Let Us Do The Same!

The United States presidential election will be held on Tuesday, November 6th, 2012. This date will mark the 57th quadrennial presidential election in which presidential electors, who will actually elect the President and the Vice President of the United States on December 17th, 2012, will be chosen. The incumbent President, Barack Hussein Obama is running for his second and final term during this election. This year, this time, on this “Election Day,” let us follow the dictates of our own conscience, resolutely separate ourselves from Barack Hussein Obama and boldly declare America independent from the blood thirsty business of abortion. Come this election, regardless of party affliction, regardless of religious denomination, regardless of the means by which we were procreated, method of reproduction, age, race, sex, gender, physical well-being, function, or condition of physical or mental dependency and/or disability, let us all take our BIBLES to the ballot and VOTE GOD! ³⁰

Brothers, we really need to talk.

UnExpected Outcomes (1)

“In 1960, [Democratic] Senator John F. Kennedy defeated sitting [Republican] Vice President Richard Nixon in the bid to become President. The Black vote swung the tide!”
 — Alveda King, Niece Of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. ¹

Why Black America Votes Democractic

“Nearly all (95%) Black voters cast their ballot for Democrat Barack Obama. Among Latino voters, 67% voted for Obama while 31% voted for Republican John McCain. Among Asian voters, 62% supported Obama and 35% voted for McCain. In contrast, white voters supported McCain (55%) over Obama (43%).” — Pew Research Center Publications ²


The first Black man to vote in America was Thomas Mundy Peterson. He was a member of St. Peter’s Episcopal Church and is buried in its graveyard. Mr. Peterson voted in the Perth Amboy mayoral election on March 31, 1870, one day after adoption of the 15th Amendment to the United States Constitution. ³ The 15th Amendment was the final of three (3) post-war Civil Rights amendments and the first ever constitutional expansion of voting rights that recognized Black Americans. It is important here to note that out of the 56 Democrats in Congress at that time, NOT A SINGLE ONE voted for the 15th Amendment. ⁴ Ever wonder why Black America votes Democratic? Ever wonder why Black America votes for the party founded by the Ku Klux Klan? Every wonder why Black America votes for a party that authored “Black Codes” (i.e., “Jim Crow” legislation) making it illegal for Black Americans to hold office, own property, travel without permission, serve on juries, marry interracially, vote and own weapons? Ever wonder why Black America votes for a party that vigorously opposed the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965?

Here’s the story.
Please listen to Alveda King in her own words:

This Was The Last Straw For The Republican Party

“It wasn’t until Harry Truman garnered 77 percent of the Black vote in 1948 that a majority of Blacks reported that they thought of themselves as Democrats. Earlier that year Truman had issued an order desegregating the armed services and an executive order setting up regulations against racial bias in federal employment.” — Brooks Jackson, FactChecked.Org ⁵


“My grandfather, Dr. Martin Luther King, Sr., or Daddy King, was a Republican and father of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. who was a Republican. Daddy King influenced a reported 100,000 Black voters to cast previously Republican votes for Senator Kennedy even though Kennedy had voted against the 1957 Civil Rights Law. Mrs. King had appealed to Kennedy and Nixon to help her husband, and Nixon who had voted for the 1957 Civil Rights Law did not respond. At the urging of his advisors, Kennedy made a politically calculated phone call to Mrs. King, who was pregnant at the time, bringing the attention of the nation to Dr. King‘s plight. Moved by Mrs. King’s gratitude for Senator Kennedy’s intervention, Daddy King was very grateful to Senator Kennedy for his assistance in rescuing Dr. King, Jr. from a life threatening jail encounter. This experience led to a Black exodus from the Republican Party. Thus, this one simple act of gratitude caused Black America to quickly forget that the Republican Party was birthed in America as the anti-slavery party to end the scourge of slavery and combat the terror of racism and segregation.

[Black Americans] quickly forgot that the Democratic Party was the party of the Ku Klux Klan. Banished from memory was the fact that the Democratic Party fought to keep Blacks in slavery and in 1894 overturned the civil rights laws of the 1860’s that had been passed by Republicans, after the Republicans also amended the Constitution to grant Blacks freedom, citizenship and the right to vote. Forgotten was the fact that it was the Republicans who started the HBCU’s [Historically Black Colleges and Universities] and the NAACP to stop the Democrats from lynching Blacks. Into the dust bin of history was tossed the fact that it was the Republicans led by Republican Senator Everett Dirksen who pushed to pass the civil rights laws in 1957, 1960, 1964, 1965 and 1968. Removed from memory are the facts that it was Republican President Dwight Eisenhower who sent troops to Arkansas to desegregate schools, established the Civil Rights Commission in 1958, and appointed Chief Justice Early Warren to the U.S. Supreme Court which resulted in the 1954 Brown v. Board of Education decision ending school segregation. Meanwhile Democrats in Congress were still fighting to prevent the passage of new civil rights laws that would overturn those discriminatory Black Codes and Jim Crow laws that had been enacted by Democrats in the South.

There would have been no law for President Lyndon Johnson to sign in 1964 had it not been for the Republicans breaking the Democrats’ filibuster of the law and pushing to have that landmark legislation enacted. No one batted an eye when President Kennedy opposed the 1963 March on Washington by Dr. King. Hardly a ripple of protest was uttered when President Kennedy, through his brother Attorney General Robert Kennedy, had Dr. King wiretapped and investigated on suspicion of being a Communist. Little attention was paid to the fact that it was a Democrat, Public Safety Commissioner Eugene “Bull” Conner, who in 1963 turned dogs and fire hoses on Dr. King and other civil rights protestors. No one noted that it was a Democrat, Georgia Governor Lester Maddox, who waved ax handles to stop Blacks from patronizing his restaurant. Nor was heed paid to the fact that it was a Democrat, Alabama Governor George Wallace, who stood in front of the Alabama schoolhouse in 1963 and thundered: ‘Segregation now, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever.’

None of those racist Democrats became Republicans. During this time of turmoil, completely forgotten was the fact that it was Democrat Arkansas Governor Orville Faubus who in 1954 had blocked desegregation of a Little Rock public school. To their eternal shame, the chief opponents of the landmark 1964 Civil Rights Act were Democrats Senators Sam Ervin, Albert Gore, Sr. and Robert Byrd, a former Klansman. All of the racist Democrats that Dr. King was fighting remained Democrats until the day they died. How can anyone today think that Dr. King, my uncle, would have joined the party of the [Ku Klux Klan]? There is a law of unexpected outcomes. Who could have predicted that the Black exodus from the Republican Party to the Democratic Party in the 1960’s would have also ushered in decades of destruction which continue to plague our communities today?” ⁶

Cost-Benefit Analysis

“Cost-benefit rule imputes little value to democratic processes of decision making, preferring calculation to consent as the basis of public choice. It ascribes no special importance to the ideals of democratic freedom and justice, reserving ideal status instead for the purportedly objective and efficient decision. Ultimately it is right reason, not democratic participation or values, that is cherished and nourished under cost-benefit government.” — John Bryne, Confronting Values in Policy Analysis: The Politics of Criteria ⁷


Cost-Benefit Analysis (CBA) or Benefit-Cost Analysis (BCA), is a numbers game for calculating and comparing benefits and costs of a project, policy or decision. There is but a single purpose for either CBA or BCA:

To determine if the investment required by a project, policy or decision outweighs its perceived benefit.

Today, as I look at the political landscape, I wonder if the Republican National Committee (RNC) has performed its own CBA or BCA and determined that the cost of winning the Black vote outweighs the benefit of having the Black vote? I can easily see the Democratic Party’s nominal investment in the Black community paying large dividends today. I can easily see Margaret Sanger’s hate filled, racially motivated and eugenic minded investment in her Negro Project paying large dividends today. I can easily see Planned Parenthood’s cheap, sleazy and illegitimate investment in Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.‘s legacy by awarding Dr. King the Margaret Sanger award in 1966 paying large dividends today. I can easily see President Barack Hussein Obama’s 100% approval rating from Planned Parenthood paying large dividends today. ⁸

Election Day, Tuesday, November 6, 2012 is seven (7) months and eighteen (18) days away from today and what’s not easy for me to see … is the Republican Party’s response to the Democratic Party’s investment in Black America.

Or am I just blind to the obvious?

 

Brothers, we really need to talk.

Black American Perspectives (7)

Black American Perspectives (7)

Genocide is defined as “the deliberate and systematic destruction, in whole or in part, of an ethnic, racial, religious, or national group.” — Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide, Article 2 ¹

Raphael Lemkin Coined The Word: “Genocide”

“Genocide does not necessarily mean the immediate destruction of a nation, except when accomplished by mass killings of all members of a nation. It is intended rather to signify a coordinated plan of different actions aiming at the destruction of essential foundations of the life of national groups, with the aim of annihilating the groups themselves … Geno—Chide has two phases: one, the destruction of the national pattern of the oppressed group; the other, the imposition of the national pattern of the oppressor.”” — Raphael Lemkin, Axis Rule in Occupied Europe ²


Raphael Lemkin (June 24, 1900 — August 28, 1959), a celebrated Polish lawyer of Jewish descent coined the word “Genocide” in 1943 (while the Holocaust was occurring) from the root words Genos (Greek for family, tribe, or race) and —chide (Latin for killing). When the German army invaded Poland in their September Campaign of 1939, Lemkin escaped from Europe and eventually reached safety in the U.S., where he taught at Duke University. ³ In 1942 Lemkin moved to Washington D.C. to join the War Department as an analyst and documented Nazi atrocities in his 1944 book, Axis Rule in Occupied Europe. It was in this work, Lemkin first used the word “Genocide” in print. ⁴

Raphael Lemkin And The 1948 Convention on Genocide

“Genocide is effected through a synchronized attack on different aspects of life of the captive peoples.” — Raphael Lemkin ⁵


On December 9th, 1948, the United nations adopted the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide as General Assembly Resolution 260. On
January 12th, 1951, the ninetieth (90th) day following the twentieth (20th) country to “deposit an instrument of ratification or accession” (i.e., to ratify the convention), the Secretary-General of the United Nations transmitted a copy of the convention to each Member of the United Nations announcing that the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide had met the requirements for enforcement. ⁶ Here is the “heart and soul” of the Convention:

Article 2 ⁷ of the Convention defines genocide as:

 “…any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, as such:

(a) Killing members of the group;

(b) Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group;

(c) Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part;

(d) Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group;

(e) Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.

Article 3 ⁸ of the Convention defines the crimes that can be punished:

(a) Genocide;

(b) Conspiracy to commit genocide;

(c) Direct and public incitement to commit genocide;

(d) Attempt to commit genocide;

(e) Complicity in genocide.

Surprisingly or not, the United States of America was not among the first twenty (20) countries to ratify the Convention. In fact, it took forty (40) years from the Convention’s adoption in 1948, for the United States of America to ratify the Convention with certain “Reservations,” “Declarations” and “Understandings (i.e., provisos, salvos and quid pro quos) on November 25th, 1988  ⁹

What Took America So Long To Ratify The “Genocide” Convention?

“You knew about it and you did nothing. You knew about the super-exploitation and inhuman hardships inflicted upon the Black people and you did nothing. Your inaction, your indifference in the face of oppression means that it was policy.” — “William L. Patterson, “We Charge Genocide, Civil Rights Congress, New York, 1951 ¹⁰


With the exception of President Dwight D. Eisenhower, all presidents since Truman have endorsed ratification of the Genocide Convention. ¹¹ However, on June 16, 1949, when President Truman sought the Senate’s advice and consent to ratify the Genocide Convention, a small group of Southern senators blocked the process. Among those senators were Southern segregationists who believed in segregation (i.e., a very strict separation of Blacks and Whites). ¹² According to legal historian Lawrence LeBlanc, these good ol’ boys masquerading as U.S. Senators asked, “Could the convention be considered applicable to racial lynching?” ¹³ In addition to being concerned about their constituent’s practice of lynching Negroes in their spare time being labeled as “Genocide,” these senators also balked at the term “mental harm” being considered genocide, because their sacred segregation laws might also be considered genocidal. ¹⁴ Their fears were not unfounded or without a basis in fact. In 1951 the singer and civil rights activist Paul Robeson ¹⁵ joined labor and civil rights activist William L. Patterson ¹⁶ in a petition to the United Nations that accused America of genocidal treatment of Black Americans. ¹⁷ The petition read: “We maintain that the oppressed Negro citizens of the United States, segregated, discriminated against and long the target of violence, suffer from genocide as the result of consistent, conscious, unified policies of every branch of government.” ¹⁸

Again, What Took America So Long
To Ratify The “Genocide” Convention?

Professedly, there were several concerns, one of which was lynching Negroes. Apparently, if lynching Negroes could be defined as genocide, then genocide could not be defined as a crime in America.

Today We’re Still Charging “Genocide”

“Frankly I had thought that at the time Roe was decided, there was concern about population growth and particularly growth in populations that we don’t want to have too many of.” — Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Associate United States Supreme Court Justice ¹⁹


According to the National Vital Statistics Reports of 2009, in 2005 there were 587,000 Live Black Births, 452,000 Induced Black Abortions and 292,808 Black Deaths from all causes, excluding induced abortion. ²⁰ If we do the math we have 587,000 Live Black Births against 744,808 Black Deaths (i.e., 452,000 Induced Black Abortions + 292,808 Black Deaths from all other causes) which equates to a Black Life Deficit of a Negative 157,808. ²¹ Abortion, which has taken the lives of more Black Americans than heart disease, cancer, strokes, accidents, diabetes, homicide, and chronic lower respiratory diseases combined, is the number one (1) cause of death in Black America. ²² In the last forty (40) years Black Americans have suffered the loss of over twenty (20) million lives to abortion alone. ²³ Still further, these numbers do not include those of us aborted by abortifacients such as ellaOne ²⁴ or by “private physicians’ procedures.” According to the latest report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and please keep in mind that the CDC’s report legally excludes the numbers from California (the state that performs the largest number of abortions in the country), Maryland, and New Hampshire, Black Women accounted for 40.2% of all abortions in the United States of America. ²⁵

Frankly, in light of sitting United States Supreme Court Associate Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s admission above and if according to the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide, “killing members of the group, causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group, deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part, imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group and/or forcibly transferring children of the group to another group” qualifies as an act of genocide, then Today, on the basis of the documentation detailing the impact of abortion in Black America alone, We’re Still Charging “Genocide.”

Black American Perspectives (6)

Black American Perspectives (6)

“Science without conscience is but the ruin of the soul.”
— François Rabelais, Pantagruel (1532) ¹

The Tuskegee Syphilis Study

“The future of the Negro lies more in the research laboratory than in the schools … When diseased, he should be registered and forced to take treatment before he offers his diseased mind and body on the altar of academic and professional education.” — Thomas Murrell, M.D.,, U.S. Public Health Service, 1910.” ²


The Tuskegee Syphilis Study is arguably the most infamous bio-medical research study in the history of our country. In 1932, the U.S. Public Health Service (PHS) launched its “Study of Syphilis in the Untreated Negro Male.” ³ While the study promised free medical care to hundreds of sick and desperately poor sharecroppers in Macon County, Alabama, the U.S. Public Health Service lied to the brothers convincing them that they were being treated, not studied.

Radiation Experiments On Black Americans

“Many African Americans’ distrust in today’s medical establishment can be attributed to Tuskegee.”” — Dr. Carl C. Bell, Executive Director of Chicago’s Community Mental Health Council ⁴


As far back as the early 1900s doctors believed radiation could turn a Black man White, as seen here by a New York American newspaper ad, dated Sunday, January 10th, 1904. ⁵ However, Ebb Cade, a 55-year-old Black truck driver, became the first American to be injected with plutonium under the direction of the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) and the Department of Energy (DOE). ⁶ On Saturday, March 24, 1945, Mr. Cade was admitted to the U.S. Army Manhattan Engineer District Hospital in Oakridge, Tennessee for treatment of bodily injuries resulting from a car accident. The extent of his injuries were so severe that his doctors did not expect him to live. Nevertheless, Ebb was recovering miraculously, that is until the AEC paid him a visit on Tuesday, April 10, 1945. ⁷ The documents show that Mr. Cade was injected with 0.29 microcuries of plutonium 239, a dose equal to 1,030 rems or 41.2 times what the average person receives in a lifetime. ⁸ Just like the Tuskegee Syphilis Study, Ebb thought his doctors were caring for him.

Black Americans And The Return Of The Brain Cutters

“In the tradition of Freeman’s mutilation of children and aggressive adults, he [University of Mississippi neurosurgeon Orland J. Andy, M.D.] simply operates and operates and operates until the child causes no more trouble.” — Peter R . Breggin, M.D., Psychiatrist ⁹


University of Mississippi neurosurgeon Orland J. Andy, M.D., a believer in Psychosurgery, performed many types of brain ablations, including thalamotomies (destruction of the thalamus, which controls emotions and analyzes sensations in the brain), on Black American children as young as six (6). ¹⁰ According to Harriet A. Washington, J.M., a [Black] boy of nine with normal intelligence, is described as “hyperactive” and “aggressive” by his doctor. To make J.M. easier to manage, he is scheduled for brain surgery. Peter R. Breggin, M.D. says: “Holes are drilled through his skull and electrodes are passed deep into his brain to coagulate both sides of the the posterior section of the forebrain, the emotion-regulating center of the brain. Nine months later, the operation is repeated on one side.” ¹¹ At this point Andy reports that J.M.’s behavior is improved. However, a year passes and J.M.’s symptoms reappear, so he is subjected to more brain surgery. This time to the fornix, another portion of the brain’s emotion-regulating system and as you and I would expect, J.M. is even easier to manage. Nevertheless, in the end, Andy admits that “intellectually” J.M. is deteriorating. ¹² I just can’t imagine what behavior Andy witnessed in a nine (9) year old boy that moved him to repeatedly cut out portions of his brain.

Culture Without Conscience Is But The Ruin Of A Country

“Each country will have to decide its own form of coercion and determine when and how it should be employed. At present, the means available are compulsory sterilization and compulsory abortion. Perhaps someday a way of enforcing compulsory birth control will be feasible.” — Alan Frank Guttmacher (1893-1974), former president of the Planned Parenthood ¹³


According the Alan Guttmacher Institute (AGI), 67% of Black pregnancies are unintended. ¹⁴ According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), while only 12% of the U.S. population, Black women accounted for 40.2% of all abortions in 2008, Black women obtained the highest percentage of abortions after 13 weeks gestation and while abortion rates for others have decreased, abortion rates for Black women have increased. ¹⁵ To get an idea of the impact of abortion in Black America, consider the number of Black Americans lynched in the U.S. between 1864 and 1968: 4,946 or 47.7 per year and compare the number of Black Americans lynched to the number of Black babies aborted between 1973 and 2011: 17,653,000 or currently about 470,000 per year and you’ll understand that the ratio of Black babies killed by abortion to Black Americans killed by lynching is 3,569 to 1. ¹⁶ The abortion numbers in Black America alone are genocidal, but when you learn that 49% of the 6.7 million pregnancies in the United States each year (3.2 million) are unintended, that at least 1 million abortions are performed annually, ¹⁷ that the total number of abortions in the United States from 1967-2011 is over 55 million, and that the 55 million babies aborted are more than the population of the seventy-two (72) largest U.S. cities (54,899,885 for 2011), you’re getting the picture. ¹⁸ However, when you realize that after forty (40) years abortion is still legal in America and that Planned Parenthood, the largest abortion provider in the country, is supported by $487 million U.S. taxpayer dollars, ¹⁹ you’ll have more than a picture. You’ll know that abortion is just the latest syphilis study, radiation experiment and brain surgery in Black America and that we as country, are a corrupt and callous culture without a conscience facing ruin.

Brothers, we really need to talk.
