It has been well documented that the eugenics movement in the United States began in the early 1900s, and even inspired eugenicists in Nazi Germany. However, the WASP establishment did not make population control a high priority until after WorldWar II, when blacks and Catholics began multiplying at rates much higher than contracepting Protestant whites.

Serious action by the U.S. government commenced in 1965 when the Supreme Court declared the prohibition of the sale of contraceptives to be unconstitutional (Griswold v. Connecticut), so government social workers could legally distribute contraceptives in ghettos. The Catholic hierarchy cooperated in 1968 by allowing Catholic theologians to dissent with impunity from Humanae Vitae, the authentic Church teaching prohibiting artificial contraception. Catholic couples then began contracepting with tacit approval of priests and bishops, and now contracept at about the same rate as non- Catholics.

The big push by government to regulate population growth occurred in1972 when John D. Rockefeller 3rd, Chairman of the Commission on Population Growth and the American Future, dictated in a letter to the President and Congress of the United States “that the gradual stabilization of our population would contribute significantly to the Nation’s ability to solve its problems” and emphasized recommendations offered by his Commission directed towards “enabling individuals to avoid unwanted fertility.” In addition, the Commission had recommended “that present state laws restricting abortion be liberalized along the lines of the New York State statute, such abortions to be performed on request (emphasis added) by duly licensed physicians under conditions of medical safety.” Taking the cue from Mr. Rockefeller, a prominent member of the power elite running our country, the Supreme Court just ten months later amazingly found in the penumbras of the Constitution a women’s right to abortion (Roe v. Wade).

The stage was then set for the undeclared, but legal targeting of undesirable unborn babies. The result has been some 40 million babies being killed by legalized abortion since 1973. Annually, the toll is about 1.3 million. At this rate, about 35 percent of all U.S. women will have an abortion in their lifetime.

A statistical analysis of racial populations and abortions in the United States reveals disturbing evidence of genocide. Despite minorities comprising only a quarter of the population, they account for more than half of all abortions. Minorities abort at a rate of 10.7 per 1,000 population, which is more than three times the rate of only 3.3 abortions per 1,000 population for non-Hispanic whites. These exterminations are not hidden in some foreign territory as happened in Nazi Germany but occur in each Catholic diocese throughout the United States.

Minority populations and total abortions for individual states corroborate this genocidal practice. For example, the District of Columbia with a minority population of 73.1 percent has an abortion rate of 17.8 per 1,000 population. In comparison, the sixteen states (VT, ME, NH, IA, WV, ND, MN, NE, ID, MT, KY, WI, SD, UT, WY and OR) with minority populations less than 10 percent have a combined abortion rate of only 2.4 per 1,000 population. There is also a strong correlation between high urban densities, where most minorities live, and high abortion rates. Catholics are not exempt from this holocaust, as there appears to be no significant differences between the rates of abortion for Catholics and non-Catholics within each race and Hispanic origin.

It seems that the judicial, executive and legislative branches of the U.S. government have conspired to promote the mass slaughter of unwanted unborn, and especially minority babies. Supposedly, this “genocide by choice” forestalls a feared explosion of minorities and drain on the Federal social services budget. The Federal government’s facilitation of minority abortions is simply racial and ethnic cleansing — American style.

Hispanic Hoax — The concept of race used by the Census Bureau reflects self-identification and considers the category Hispanic to be an origin, not a race. Since some 90 percent of Hispanics identify themselves as white, the Census Bureau’s white race comprises a significant number of Hispanic minorities. The percents of white Hispanics are found in the Statistical Abstract of the United States 1998.

Hence, when the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports that 40.5 percent of abortions are accounted for by nonwhites, the perception is that only about 40 percent of abortions are by minorities and the remaining 60 percent by the majority (non-Hispanic) whites. However, if Hispanics are not included with whites and instead classified as a separate minority race, as is done in this statistical analysis, then minorities account for over 50 percent of all abortions, despite comprising only 25 percent of the population.

Diocesan Population Characteristics — The racial and Hispanic breakdowns for each diocese are obtained from the U.S. Dept. of Commerce’s County and City Data Book by simply summing the white, black, Indian, Asian, Hispanic and total populations for each county within each diocese (as listed in The Official Catholic Directory), and prorating the totals to reflect the population totals published in the Catholic Almanac.

The Catholic percent of the total population for each diocese is also obtained from the Catholic Almanac. The Catholic percents for blacks is based on the Statistical Profile of Black Catholics, published by the Josephite Pastoral Center in 1984, and adjusted by Catholic percents for individual dioceses. The Catholic percents for Indians, Asians and Hispanics are estimates based on discussions with priests from national minority offices of the Catholic Church, with adjustments made for reasonableness, and prorated according to the total Catholic percent for each diocese.

Abortion Data — The Alan Guttmacher Institute (AGI) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) are the two best sources of data on abortions in the United States. AGI conducts extensive surveys with hospitals, clinics and physicians identified as abortion providers from all 50 states and the District of Columbia and is considered the best source for the numbers of abortions nationwide. AGI numbers are used by the U.S. Dept. of Commerce in its Statistical Abstract of the United States. CDC, in addition to state totals, also publishes racial breakdowns of abortions from 36 states and Hispanic breakdowns from 22 states, as reported by central health agencies from each state. CDC acknowledges that its data accounts for less than 90 percent of the abortion numbers reported by AGI. Therefore, in this analysis, total abortions for each state are obtained from AGI and racial and Hispanic breakdowns from CDC. For states not reporting racial and Hispanic breakdowns to CDC, these breakdowns are based on averages of the states that do report this type of data.

AGI reported abortions performed in each Standard Metropolitan Statistical Areas (SMSA) for 1987 in its Abortion Factbook — 1992 Edition. About 95 percent of all abortions occurred in SMSAs and only about five percent in the remaining rural areas. This information is helpful in determining the geographical distribution of abortion within each state.

Urban Density Factor — Urban density factors are calculated for each state, SMSA and diocese by dividing the populations by an urban density determined by multiplying the populations of cities over 50,000 by their densities. Applying regression analysis, a strong correlation is found to exist between states and SMSAs with high urban densities and high rates of abortion for their respective populations.

Catholic Abortions — Official documents of the Roman Catholic Church, such as the Catechism of the Catholic Church, Evangelium Vitae and Living the Gospel of Life: A Challenge to American Catholics, strongly condemn abortion. However, Catholics in America appear to abort at about the same rates as non-Catholics. As a matter of fact, regression analysis results in a slight correlation between high Catholic percents of a population and high abortion rates, but this can probably be attributed more to the urban influence, where many Catholics live alongside minorities, than to being Catholic. Discussing a survey of characteristics of abortion patients, AGI states that “Catholics are as likely as women in the general population to have an abortion,” . . . “Factors that are associated with low abortion rates include . . . identifying with a religion other than Catholicism,” . . . “The surprise, since Catholic dogma is more visibly opposed to abortion than is that of most other religions, is that identification as a Catholic does not result in a low relative abortion rate.” Forbes magazine concurred with these results in an article that stated “Roman Catholics are more likely to abort than Protestants.” In my study, therefore, Catholics are assumed to abort at the same rate as neighboring non-Catholics of the same race or Hispanicism.

Abortion Estimates — The estimates of abortions within each diocese are based on average abortion rates for the various races, an urban density factor for each diocese, statewide abortion totals and an estimate of the occurrence of abortion within that diocese. The 25 dioceses, in which the most Catholic abortions occur, are tabulated below.

Nationwide, the abortion rate is 5.1 per 1,000 population. Blacks and Hispanics abort at a rate of 12.6 and 8.9 per 1,000 population, respectively, while non-Hispanic whites abort at a rate of only 3.3 per 1,000 population. Since a significant number of these minorities are Hispanic Catholics, the rate of Catholic abortions is 5.1 per 1,000 population, the national average. Due to the unavailability of female populations between ages 15 and 44 for the several groupings, abortion rates in this analysis are based on total populations. To obtain approximate rates of abortions per 1,000 women of child bearing age, which is a popular standard, simply multiply the rates in this article by 4.4.

†Among Catholics nationally, it is estimated that about 55 percent of abortions are performed on non- Hispanic whites, 36 percent on Hispanics and the remainder on Catholics of other races.

The above estimates are based on the best information available to the public and the use of standard statistical methods, and are believed to be reasonably accurate. This data, however, is not intended to represent an actual survey of numbers of abortions.

Statistical reports of pro-life (anti-abortion) voting records of members of Congress have been sent to the American Catholic bishops for the past eight years. These reports have documented the scandalous negative correlation between populations with high Catholic percents and pro-life legislators. They have also identified the Catholic legislators supporting legalized abortion in the United States.

Catholic Voters — There is a strong correlation between the percent of Catholics in a state and the election of proabortion U.S. legislators. For example, in the five most Catholic states (RI, MA, NJ, NY and CT) all ten of the elected senators in Congress are pro-abortion, including four Catholics (Edward Kennedy, Chris Dodd, John Kerry, and Jack Reed). In 2002, U.S. senators and representatives from these five states had a pathetic, average 15 percent pro-life voting record, while U.S. legislators from the five least Catholic states (TN, SC, AL, AR, and NC) had a respectable, average 71 percent.

Catholic Legislators — Pro-abortion Catholic politicians in Congress make a public mockery of the Catholic teaching that abortion is a grave evil. The most egregious Catholic supporters of legalized abortion have been Senators Kennedy (MA), Dodd (CT), and Barbara Mikulski (MD) and Representatives Charles Rangel (NY), William Clay (MO) and George Miller (CA), all of whom have voted consistently pro-abortion since the 1970s. Since the mid-1990s, virulently pro-abortion Catholic legislators include Senators Patty Murray (WA), Richard Durbin (IL), Tom Harkin (IA), Tom Daschle (SD) and Jack Reed (RI), and Representatives Ed Pastor (AZ), Nancy Pelosi (CA), Anna Eshoo (CA), Rosa DeLauro (CT), Lane Evans (IL), Marty Meehan (MA), Frank Pallone (NJ), Robert Menendez (NJ), Sherwood Boehlert (NY), Luis Guttierrez (IL), Karen McCarthy (MO), Maurice Hinchey (NY), Xavier Becerra (CA), Nydia Velazquez (NY), Lucille Roybal-Allard (CA), Jose Serrano (NY), Ellen Tauscher (CA), James McGovern (MA), Loretta Sanchez (CA), Ciro Rodriguez (TX), William Delahunt (MA), Peter DeFazio (OR), Ed Markey (MA) and Carolyn McCarthy (NY). These public sinners should have been excommunicated by their bishops long ago, or at least denied the Eucharist until they repent.

The Uncle Tom Syndrome — Since the early 1900s, the eugenic, population control crowd have targeted blacks. In order to mask their objective of reducing the black population, they have engaged black leaders to do their bidding. Now that Hispanics have been added to the hit list, both pro-abortion black and Hispanic politicians have been promoted by the Democratic party to provide pro-abortion leadership in heavily minority congressional districts. Many Catholics, who historically represented traditional morality, have also submitted to the Democratic pro-abortion agenda to advance politically. And pro-abortion female politicians have become desirable commodities as role models for girls and young women troubled by unplanned pregnancies.

In 2002, of the 36 black congressmen (there were no black senators), only J.C. Watts was pro-life and his fourth district in Oklahoma was 80 percent white. Fourteen of the 19 Hispanic congressmen (there also were no Hispanic senators) were pro-abortion, including 14 of the 17 Hispanic Catholics. All but one of the 13 female senators was pro-abortion and all 41 Democratic female reps were pro-abortion, while the 18 Republican female reps were moderately pro-life. Another solid block of pro-abortion politicians are Jews, who are no strangers to a holocaust. Twenty-five of the 26 Jewish representatives and all ten Jewish senators were pro-aborts.

Pregnant minority women, who are the target of the eugenics crowd, are being enticed into the slaughter houses by their minority political leaders, under the mantra of “a woman’s right to choose.” Pregnant Catholic women are subtly deceived into thinking that abortion is a viable option, since their priests and bishops rarely mention the grievous evil of abortion, probably in fear of offending women who may have had an abortion or simply to be politically correct. Brainwashed by the proabortion, secular media and hedonistic milieu of today, and often given no moral guidance, is it any surprise that these troubled women opt for abortions?

As a result of government policies, over 40 million legal surgical abortions have been performed in the United States since 1973. Half of these abortions have been procured by minorities, who have been undeclared targets for population reduction. Collateral damage has resulted in an estimated eight million Catholic women having their unborn children killed in utero. Yet, our Catholic bishops have essentially remained silent. The secular and Catholic media seem to believe that the only holocaust deemed politically correct to mention was perpetrated over 50 years ago by the Nazis, who killed an alleged six million Jews. Rarely do you read about the holocaust perpetrated on 20 million black and Hispanic unborn babies in the U.S. during the past 30 years, and nowhere do you read about the eight million Catholic abortions.

The U.S. Catholic bishops have been flooded with documentation of the American abortion holocaust being implemented by Catholics in each of their dioceses, in the vain hope of stirring them out of their complacency. Without the U.S. Catholic bishops providing courageous moral leadership, which to date has not been forthcoming, the pro-life movement in America is doomed.
