Lawyer Barry Arrington <a href="http://www.uncommondescent.com/intelligent-design/posted-without-commentary/">posts a quote</a> which he ascribes to Margaret Sanger in 1922: "Slavs, Latin, and Hebrew immigrants are human weeds ... a deadweight of human waste. Blacks, soldiers, and Jews are a menace to the race." The quote has three suspicious aspects which would make any reasonable person think twice before posting. First, the ellipsis. Have two unrelated quotes been grafted together? Second, the lack of a detailed attribution. Where, precisely, did she say this? What speech or journal? Third, the longstanding record of quote fabrication by political and religious extremists; see, for example, They Never Said It or The Quote Verifier. When Arrington is informed by a contributor that the quote is apparently <a href="http://www.plannedparenthood.org/files/PPFA/OppositionClaimsAboutMargaretSanger.pdf">bogus</a>, how does he respond? Does he withdraw it, or at least say he will do more research to make sure it is accurate? No, so far he has completely ignored this information. Arrington's efforts were applauded by co-blogger V. J. Torley. Whether it concerns biology, or climate science, or history, all they have to offer is lies. <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> Posted by Jeffrey Shallit at <meta content='http://recursed.blogspot.com/2013/04/they-offer-nothing-but-lies.html' itemprop='url'/> <a class='timestamp-link' href='http://recursed.blogspot.com/2013/04/they-offer-nothing-but-lies.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' itemprop='datePublished' title='2013-04-16T06:22:00-04:00'>6:22 AM</abbr></a> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/email-post.g?blogID=20067416&postID=536192641290974192' title='Email Post'> <img alt='' class='icon-action' height='13' src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_email.gif' width='18'/> </a> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=20067416&postID=536192641290974192&from=pencil' title='Edit Post'> <img alt='' class='icon-action' height='18' src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif' width='18'/> </a> <div class='post-share-buttons goog-inline-block'> </div> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-2'> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-3'> </div> </div> </div> <div class='comments' id='comments'> <a name='comments'></a> <h4>24 comments:</h4> <div id='Blog1_comments-block-wrapper'> <dl class='avatar-comment-indent' id='comments-block'> <dt class='comment-author ' id='c2199344436790581351'> <a name='c2199344436790581351'></a> <div class="avatar-image-container avatar-stock"><a href="https://www.blogger.com/profile/05074136019151416282" target="" rel="nofollow" onclick="" class="avatar-hovercard" id="av-2199344436790581351-05074136019151416282"><img src="//www.blogger.com/img/blogger_logo_round_35.png" width="35" height="35" alt="" title="sbh"> </a></div> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/profile/05074136019151416282' rel='nofollow'>sbh</a> said... </dt> <dd class='comment-body' id='Blog1_cmt-2199344436790581351'> John J. Pasquini appears to be the source of this quotation in the form “[Slavs, Latin, and Hebrew immigrants are] human weeds … a deadweight of human waste … [Black, soldiers, and Jews are a] menace to the race”. He attributes this to Birth Control Review, April 1933. Not a word of this appears there, however, and anyway, Margaret Sanger was not the author of any of the material appearing in that issue. Margaret Sanger apparently did quote Luther Burbank referring to “criminals and weaklings” as weeds in “Is Race Suicide Probable?” (Collier's 15 Ag 1925). The phrase “this dead weight of human waste” appears in Pivot of Civilization referring to people in “alms-houses, reformatories, schools for the blind, deaf and mute, in insane asylums, in homes for the feeble-minded and epileptic”. She used the phrase “a menace to the race” in a rejected passage for “We Must Breed a Race of Thoroughbreds” referring to “the diseased, the sickly, the poverty stricken and anti-social classes of society, elements unable to provide for themselves”. As far as I can tell the references to Slavic, Latin and Hebrew immigrants, blacks, soldiers, and Jews are all Pasquini’s, not Sanger’s, and do not appear to be justified by the contexts. </dd> <dd class='comment-footer'> <a href='http://recursed.blogspot.com/2013/04/they-offer-nothing-but-lies.html?showComment=1366123096432#c2199344436790581351' title='comment permalink'> 10:38 AM, April 16, 2013 </a> <a class='comment-delete' href='https://www.blogger.com/delete-comment.g?blogID=20067416&postID=2199344436790581351' title='Delete Comment'> <img src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon_delete13.gif'/> </a> </dd> <dt class='comment-author ' id='c8534706336266375154'> <a name='c8534706336266375154'></a> <div class="avatar-image-container vcard"><a href="https://www.blogger.com/profile/17336244849636477317" target="" rel="nofollow" onclick="" class="avatar-hovercard" id="av-8534706336266375154-17336244849636477317"><img src="https://resources.blogblog.com/img/blank.gif" width="35" height="35" class="delayLoad" style="display: none;" longdesc="//4.bp.blogspot.com/_BQtYCYJpONQ/SXpZysDt3mI/AAAAAAAADUE/fGZJ2RCv5H4/S45-s35/48763844_719faff265_m.jpg" alt="" title="John Pieret"> <noscript><img src="//4.bp.blogspot.com/_BQtYCYJpONQ/SXpZysDt3mI/AAAAAAAADUE/fGZJ2RCv5H4/S45-s35/48763844_719faff265_m.jpg" width="35" height="35" class="photo" alt=""></noscript></a></div> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/profile/17336244849636477317' rel='nofollow'>John Pieret</a> said... </dt> <dd class='comment-body' id='Blog1_cmt-8534706336266375154'> Arrington has now issued an not-retraction, saying: When I saw the quote originally posted here, I researched it and found an attribution to a source.

That said, the general views expressed in the quotation were in fact held by Margaret Sanger.

Sanger could be a serial killer and it wouldn't change the fact that arrington's sources are Always frauds. </dd> <dd class='comment-footer'> <a href='http://recursed.blogspot.com/2013/04/they-offer-nothing-but-lies.html?showComment=1366237021514#c6241552384841157384' title='comment permalink'> 6:17 PM, April 17, 2013 </a> <a class='comment-delete' href='https://www.blogger.com/delete-comment.g?blogID=20067416&postID=6241552384841157384' title='Delete Comment'> <img src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon_delete13.gif'/> </a> </dd> <dt class='comment-author ' id='c5218615516022138812'> <a name='c5218615516022138812'></a> <div class="avatar-image-container avatar-stock"><img src="//resources.blogblog.com/img/blank.gif" width="35" height="35" alt="" title="Mangster"> </div> Mangster said... </dt> <dd class='comment-body' id='Blog1_cmt-5218615516022138812'> Diogenes, what you say is fine and all, but if someone says something false about a serial killer, it seems a little odd to defend the serial killer against the false charge without reminding your readers that the person is still a serial killer. </dd> <dd class='comment-footer'> <a href='http://recursed.blogspot.com/2013/04/they-offer-nothing-but-lies.html?showComment=1366249615588#c5218615516022138812' title='comment permalink'> 9:46 PM, April 17, 2013 </a> <a class='comment-delete' href='https://www.blogger.com/delete-comment.g?blogID=20067416&postID=5218615516022138812' title='Delete Comment'> <img src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon_delete13.gif'/> </a> </dd> <dt class='comment-author ' id='c8958923319467855295'> <a name='c8958923319467855295'></a> <div class="avatar-image-container vcard"><a href="https://www.blogger.com/profile/15551943619872944637" target="" rel="nofollow" onclick="" class="avatar-hovercard" id="av-8958923319467855295-15551943619872944637"><img src="https://resources.blogblog.com/img/blank.gif" width="35" height="35" class="delayLoad" style="display: none;" longdesc="//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiNkImam1pqBpNm10aQaV9DuOj8UKIzWx9f_RrzayjH3QV3wywGkqt7XthVOr-6sW9yBRBZo9m_cLBM9TwXY2ijhU8ky2MITZXpCIgYLJW6SIUBRWXuVZhOrPIztCApg/s45-c/Diogenes+in+Barrel+by+Jean-L%C3%A9on+G%C3%A9r%C3%B4me-Face+250x250.jpg" alt="" title="Diogenes"> <noscript><img src="//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiNkImam1pqBpNm10aQaV9DuOj8UKIzWx9f_RrzayjH3QV3wywGkqt7XthVOr-6sW9yBRBZo9m_cLBM9TwXY2ijhU8ky2MITZXpCIgYLJW6SIUBRWXuVZhOrPIztCApg/s45-c/Diogenes+in+Barrel+by+Jean-L%C3%A9on+G%C3%A9r%C3%B4me-Face+250x250.jpg" width="35" height="35" class="photo" alt=""></noscript></a></div> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/profile/15551943619872944637' rel='nofollow'>Diogenes</a> said... </dt> <dd class='comment-body' id='Blog1_cmt-8958923319467855295'> Oh, OK.

Now, before you whitewash it, let's see how the website whitewashes it: "This passage has been repeatedly extracted by Sanger's detractors as evidence that she led a calculated effort to reduce the black population against their will... The argument that Sanger co-opted black clergy and community leaders to exterminate their own race not only gives Sanger unwarranted credit as a remarkably cunning manipulator, but also suggests that African-Americans were passive receptors of birth control reform, incapable of making their own decisions about family size; and that black leaders were ignorant and gullible." Also, John wrote: "Pointing out the hyperbole is not "defending" the bad ideas/actions of the victim of the hyperbole". I agree with that, and that's why I didn't claim that Shallit was defending Sanger, but merely that he let her escape criticism. </dd> <dd class='comment-footer'> <a href='http://recursed.blogspot.com/2013/04/they-offer-nothing-but-lies.html?showComment=1366291497455#c4769688442365418577' title='comment permalink'> 9:24 AM, April 18, 2013 </a> <a class='comment-delete' href='https://www.blogger.com/delete-comment.g?blogID=20067416&postID=4769688442365418577' title='Delete Comment'> <img src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon_delete13.gif'/> </a> </dd> <dt class='comment-author ' id='c9145567644550052235'> <a name='c9145567644550052235'></a> <div class="avatar-image-container vcard"><a href="https://www.blogger.com/profile/15551943619872944637" target="" rel="nofollow" onclick="" class="avatar-hovercard" id="av-9145567644550052235-15551943619872944637"><img src="https://resources.blogblog.com/img/blank.gif" width="35" height="35" class="delayLoad" style="display: none;" longdesc="//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiNkImam1pqBpNm10aQaV9DuOj8UKIzWx9f_RrzayjH3QV3wywGkqt7XthVOr-6sW9yBRBZo9m_cLBM9TwXY2ijhU8ky2MITZXpCIgYLJW6SIUBRWXuVZhOrPIztCApg/s45-c/Diogenes+in+Barrel+by+Jean-L%C3%A9on+G%C3%A9r%C3%B4me-Face+250x250.jpg" alt="" title="Diogenes"> <noscript><img src="//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiNkImam1pqBpNm10aQaV9DuOj8UKIzWx9f_RrzayjH3QV3wywGkqt7XthVOr-6sW9yBRBZo9m_cLBM9TwXY2ijhU8ky2MITZXpCIgYLJW6SIUBRWXuVZhOrPIztCApg/s45-c/Diogenes+in+Barrel+by+Jean-L%C3%A9on+G%C3%A9r%C3%B4me-Face+250x250.jpg" width="35" height="35" class="photo" alt=""></noscript></a></div> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/profile/15551943619872944637' rel='nofollow'>Diogenes</a> said... </dt> <dd class='comment-body' id='Blog1_cmt-9145567644550052235'> What's to "whitewash" about that quote?
