Forced Abortion on Poor Ethnic Women in Holland?



( As reported by Lifesite.net)

ROTTERDAM, Holland - Marianne van den Anker, an alderman in the Rotterdam city council in charge of public health and security has proposed forced abortion and forced contraception for teenage mothers whose origin is in the Antilles and on drug addicts and people with mental handicaps.  The alderman suggested that such mothers are nearly always guilty of child abuse.

While several reports have referred to van den Anker and her Leefbaar Rotterdam party as "right wing", the alderman is the furthest thing from the right side of the social conservative spectrum.  In addition to being pro-abortion, van den Anker has set up a program in the schools to counter intolerance of homosexuality. (see her website here for that info -Dutch only unfortunately )

Van den Anker told the NRC Handelsblad paper that children from these mothers run an "unacceptable risk" experiencing "violence, neglect, mistreatment and sexual abuse."  She added, "The exceptions, and there are some, can be counted on a pair of hands."

Her announcement of her plan came during a workshop on child abuse where she pressed her case for forced abortion saying, "What do you think of a 24-year old Antillean mother who visits the doctor, is 19 weeks pregnant, has three existing children , then abuses one of her children in the hospital, before announcing to the doctor that she wishes to proceed with her pregnancy , even though she doesn't know who the father is, has no idea how she's going to raise another child, take care, feed and dress the child, and on top of that is HIV positive?"

______________________________________
No matter if they call this Dutch Politician a "right winger" or a "Left winger" she is merely expressing the ultimately logical end point for the thinking of abortion advocates. Those who are enamored of abortion will advocate for its use as much as possible and, if one is convinced that abortion is a good thing, it will always end up being used for the purpose of a cleansing or Eugenics. If it is a positive good, after all, why NOT use it to "cure poverty" or end "abuse"?

This is where a respect for life would put an end to such dangerous rumination. If a baby was humanized instead of dehumanized as some lump of "unviable tissue" people would find it harder to destroy that life.

Once again, Europe shows its utter lack of morals.
