Bill Bennett

By now, you've probably heard that self appointed right wing cultura czar Bill Bennett said if you aborted all black babies, the crime rate would drop. Its astonishing to me that people don't seem to realize that what's so wrong with what Bennett said is the assumption that black people are inherently more criminal than any other race. There is no way to frame that other than as an offensively racist remark. But its part and parcel for today's conservatives.
