Bill Bennett was right

Unless you've been under a rock the last few days, you've heard about the remarks made by former Sec. of Education Bill Bennett. On his radio show, he said:
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. That would be an impossible, ridiculous, and morally reprehensible thing to do, but your crime rate would go down.

You know what? He's right. He'd also be right if he said the same about white babies, poor babies, male babies, etc. If you erase a significant portion of your population, crime would have to go down - simple math. But he was an asshole for saying it, because he knew his audience would take it the way the Left has taken it, that he's implying that all blacks commit crime, which we don't. So be upset with what he implied, not with what he said.

Hello fellow Chaz!

Just passing through, but thought I'd point out this cool coincidence.

My "Chaz" is short for "Charles Zachary". You?
