Bennett's Offensive Comments

OK, I'm not easily offended, which is good because I have an Asian husband and an AA daughter, but what William Bennett said on his talk show was WAY out of bounds.
Bennett, on his radio show, “Morning in America,” was answering a caller’s question when he took issue with the hypothesis put forth in a recent book that one reason crime is down is that abortion is up. “But I do know that it’s true that if you wanted to reduce crime, you could, if that were your sole purpose, you could abort every black baby in this country, and your crime rate would go down,” said Bennett, author of “The Book of Virtues.”
Man, this guy used to be our Education Secretary.
