Ginsburg Didn't Want Just Baby Minorities Dead. She Wanted Them All Dead>>>

from Creative Minority Report 


Ginsburg Didn't Want Just Baby Minorities Dead. She Wanted Them All Dead.
Here's her original statement:
“Frankly I had thought that at the time Roe was decided, there was concern about population growth and particularly growth in populations that we don’t want to have too many of."
Now, LifeNews is reporting that the same reporter Emily Bazelon has written a follow up article, in which she clarifies those comments with Ginsburg.
“Emily, you know that that line, which you quoted accurately, was vastly misinterpreted,” Ginsbug said. “I was surprised that the court went as far as it did in Roe v. Wade, and I did think that with the Medicaid reimbursement cases down the road that perhaps the court was thinking it did want more women to have access to reproductive choice. At the time, there was a concern about too many people inhabiting our planet. There was an organization called Zero Population Growth.” She continued, “In the press, there were articles about the danger of crowding our planet. So there was at the time of Roe v. Wade considerable concern about overpopulation.”
Bazelon summarizes by saying, "Justice Ginsburg also made it clear today that the issue she had in mind when we spoke in 2009 was concern about population growth among all classes (and races)."
