Seriously? The story being touted for the 5 o'clock news.

Apparently fewer WHITE babies are being born than ever before. Tune in to Eyewitness News 5 in Oklahoma City at 5 to hear about the "Minority" baby boom.
Apparently it is a slow news day.

...making race an issue about anything just pisses me off.
Of course I'm really pissed off at everyone right now, so this is not surprising.

It's the only thing that makes sense. Only it makes you wonder when will they start making it illegal for everyone but whites to have more than one child?

That's why they don't want contraceptives. You're right on. Just saying it doesn't make it wrong. Them thinking it is wrong, but they have come out and SAID this.

Of more white babies. Ab-only doesn't work and they know it. This finding also explains the anti-contraception and total abortion ban they're going for.

If you had set up this Country to actually RUN the way the founding fathers aspired to, you'd have nothing to fear. There would be equal protection under the law no matter WHO was in the majority.

Just not from the view of the news, who are probably going to use it to try and scare white people. But as with every other major shift, there are going to be all kinds of... consequences for lack of a better term, socio-economic, political, etc.
