Cardinal George of Chicago, also president of the US Council of Catholic Bishops, recently related support for abortion to support for racism. He compared the Dred Scott decision to Roe v. Wade.

Most importantly, both decisions effectively reduced one segment of our society to a sub-human status resulting it terrible injustices against blacks and the unborn.
