An anti-abortion billboard is causing a lot of controversy in New York. Contrasts between groups in the U.S. "pro-life" anti-abortionists and associations that defend the right of choice by women are very turned on, and often border on violence, not only verbal. This time the thrust came from Texas Association - Life Always - who has installed a huge poster depicting a beautiful black girl, "under which stands the inscription:" The most dangerous place for un'afroamericana is the womb " and an arrow.
The reference is to the NY headquarters of leading American chain of abortion clinics, Planned Parentwood, adjacent to the building that houses the giant billboard in Soho, one of the coolest cities. The Big Apple, the city more "European" of the United States, a liberal by definition, a spot like that is considered an affront and an undue violence against abortion rights of American women.
The message of Life Always, then, is addressed to the African American community, in which the use of abortion would be - the association estimates Texas, led by Pastor Stephen Broden - "three times higher than the general population." Immediate counter-offensive by Bill de Blasio, a lawyer who deals with protecting the rights of New Yorkers for the Municipality, which has branded the initiative as "gravely offensive to women and minorities." Another comment came from hard Mary Alice Carr, spokeswoman for the National Institute for Reproductive Health, which CNN said: "They attack women because they choose abortion, and at the same time destroy the family planning program.
Their hypocrisy is big and ugly just like this bill. " For its part, the complaint Life Always a true "genocidal plot" sponsored by the recourse to abortion among the black population. "That represented on the poster is a true reality and tragic," said the pastor Broden. However, it seems destined to be short-lived the manifesto of Life Always, there are those who swear that as soon as possible is removed.
"Common decency demands it - says indignantly Christine Quinn, City Council President of the Big Apple - Define the practice of abortion is a genocidal plot is not only absurd, but it is offensive to women and communities of color."
