Abortion was settled, made legal, and enshrined in the Ohio constitution a year ago. Democracy, the people spoke. Yet sometimes the people need reminded of the unintended consequences of their decisions. I ran across the following speech made on the floor of the Ohio Senate a year ago October. Worth a moment of your time and consideration:
Unintended consequences are real.
This is not healthcare - this is extermination

Abortion is killing the black community.
The abortion industry has nefarious roots in hatred and racism. Margaret Sanger, the founder of Planned Parenthood, was a eugenicist who systematically targeted “inferior races” for decades. She opened her first clinic in a black neighborhood in Brooklyn.
This horrific moment was just the beginning. Abortion is still a lucrative business scheme in America.
Since 1973, this predatory industry has claimed the lives of 20 million black children in the nation.
Ohio’s black women and babies have felt this evil year after year. And it continues today.
The black community accounts for just over 13% of Ohio’s population, yet according to the Ohio Department of Health in 2022, 48.4% of abortions performed in Ohio were on black women. (excerpt)
