Sick with a Child
Margaret Sanger
The following excerpt is written by Diane S. Dew:
Margaret Sanger:
Editor of The Birth Control Review from 1917 to 1938.
Founder of Planned Parenthood, the largest abortion provider in the world.
Her goal in life:
Sanger admitted her entire life’s purpose was to promote birth control. An Autobiography, p. 194
Helped to establish the research bureau that financed “the pill,” she contributed toward the work of the German doctor who developed the IUD. “Ernst Graefenberg and His Ring,” Mt. Sinai Journal of Medicine, July-Aug. 1975, p. 345, in Margaret Sanger: Father of Modern Society, by Elasah Drogin
Sanger espoused the thinking of eugenicists — similar to Darwin’s “survival of the fittest” — but related the concept to human society, saying the genetic makeup of the poor, and minorities, for example, was inferior. Pivot of Civilization, by Margaret Sanger, 1922, p. 80
On mandatory sterilization of the poor:
One of Sanger’s greatest influences, sexologist/eugenicist Dr. Havelock Ellis (with whom she had an affair, leading to her divorce from her first husband), urged mandatory sterilization of the poor as a prerequisite to receiving any public aid. The Problem of Race Regeneration, by Havelock Ellis, p. 65.
On eradicating ‘bad stocks’:
The goal of eugenicists is “to prevent the multiplication of bad stocks,” wrote Dr. Ernst Rudin in the April 1933 Birth Control Review (of which Sanger was editor). Another article exhorted Americans to “restrict the propagation of those physically, mentally and socially inadequate.”
Sanger featured in Life magazine, 1937, “Margaret Sanger celebrates Birth Control Victory.”
“The most merciful thing that a large family does to one of its infant members is to kill it.” Margaret Sanger, Women and the New Race (Eugenic Publ. Co., 1920, 1923)

So, that was then, and this is now: I took this photo a few days ago…
This poster was plastered all over town in one of the most affluent neighborhoods north of Washington DC, staring at every migrant worker waiting for a bus-ride home.
Is the girl portrayed in the poster frightened? disturbed? inconvenienced? scared?
Perhaps she’s “sick with a child? infected with another being invading her body?
Perhaps the child is a parasite which she needs to be liberated and rescued from?
Where is her husband, boyfriend, father, mother, sister, brother… Is she all alone? why?
Who made her alone?
Why does she need to call for help? why would strangers help her? what do they want from her in return?
Why is it all about her?
What if the child is scared? who does “it” call? same number?
Is she… was she… herself a parasite who got away — did she infect another woman with her coming to being at one time?
She is certainly not blessed and beaming with radiance, is she?
Where’s her maiden dress aglow in fertile beauty?
Is she a criminal for being poor? is that her crime? is there an abortion magazine for her? celebrating her helplessness in high glossy adverts?
Is she one brown-skinned burden too many? dammit!
Can’t she be culled down like the deer population munching on our pristine manicured gardens?
We do say that the deer population needs to be thinned down to remain healthy, why is that taboo when referring to humans?
What a world we have come to, what an insane little pathetic farce of a world, steeped to the hilt with the venom of self-deceit.
Too many silly questions, but someone’s gotta ask them, right? No?
Perhaps they can help answer our questions: Optionline
Or maybe these shiny people, Margaret’s followers, can help plan our future: Planned Parenthood. They must be doing something right, look how far they’ve reached into middle earth!
