LIFE ISSUES NO. 2798

EDWARD ALLRED

Who is the most notorious abortionist in the United States today?  I think if you would ask most informed pro-life people, they would probably point to one of the late-term abortionists.  They might mention Dr. “Tiller the Killer” in Wichita who kills pre-born babies as old as eight months along.  Another culprit is the infamous Dr. Brian Herne in Boulder, Colorado.  Or we could go to Dayton, Ohio, and the originator of the partial-birth abortions, Brian Haskell.

I wouldn’t necessarily argue as to who is the worst of these butchers, but I could propose another who is notorious for a different reason.  His notoriety is not from doing late-term abortions, but from the huge number of babies that he and his allied string of abortion centers have killed over the years in California.  His name is Edward Allred.  He runs the nation’s largest, privately held chain of abortion chambers.  His medical group, which is incorporated, I presume for tax reasons, generates $70 million a year, and from this he nets $5 million personally in profit.

What does he do with his money?  Well, he owns the Los Alamitos Racecourse in Orange County, California.  I’m told he’s the largest breeder and racer of quarter horses in the United States—he owns 500 of them.

I’ve mentioned what his income is from abortions – I don’t have any figures on what he makes off of gambling at his racetrack, but it must be considerable, because people can now call in bets to his race track by telephone; and he, accordingly, provides some of the only late-night gambling on horse racing to millions of homes out there.

He’s a well known, aggressive racist.  In the past, he has pointed with pride to the fact that his killing centers are located in areas which have large minority populations.  This is particularly true in areas settled by Hispanic immigrants from south of the border—Mexico, Honduras, etc.  He has made no bones about saying that he wants to kill as many unborn Hispanics as possible.  You see, he has publicly said that, in his judgment, that there are too many Hispanics  in California.

This guy is certainly bad news, and no one has been able to stop his activities in the last several decades.  So, as a rather dubious nomination, I would extend his name out to anyone’s consideration as to who is the most notorious baby-killer in America.
