Buggy, suggest you check your facts before going down this road and imply racism on the part of people who are pro-life. In most states there are people open to adoption of babies of any race or condition. Your guess does not correspond with the facts. One of my daughter's close friends adopted black triplets who were far from being models of health. They have grown into bright, heathy people who will go to college and will, in all probability, be contributing members of society.I am familiar with this situation since I donated a Prego triplet stroller given at her shower (no, I did not attend).
Having raised twins, I question her sanity in making such a decision, but that was her business. She was and is a Mormon and if you think you cannot find a good home for any child, visit your local LDS church.
