>>Now imagine abortion being nearly impossible to get. Then you have a victim of rape, or accidental pregnancy of any other kind, where the birth is forced upon her. What life can she afford for that kid? What education, what upbringing? What are the chances the kid will end up the wrong side of the street? Much larger.

>That is exactly the point of discussion here. I see it this way. Once the fact that percentage criminal acitivity is higher amongst blacks is acklowledged, you'll have to opportunity to investigate why it is that higher. Up until now, no-one wants to acknowlegde the statistical fact, and therefore blocking the path to look into solutions. If the american government steps over the racism sensitivity and look at fact and are not scared to be called racists, they'll be better able to lay the finger at sore spots. The obvious ones (single females getting pregnant without a future), might be adressed by making anti-conception more accessible. Also special programs targetted at certain groups (with high crime rates) might reduce the problem. The discussion about abortion should be held again (I'm not sure if abortion is legalised entirely yet in the US) as the abortion rates in the US are terrible high.

I didn't see anywhere in the original sentence any will to go deeper into the why and how, it was only "every black baby", not the social circumstances. And of course the problem is exactly there, in the economics of a ghetto, of low education, of inaccessibility of health services etc.

The kind of crime we're talking about is poor man's enterprise. The whole thing is much more complex, and blurting out a patently race-stained remark is a perfect diversion, which serves only to move the discussion into the "is America still racist" direction, and away from the actual causes. Which is economics, distribution of wealth, etc.
