Anyone know the maker of those anti-choice commercials that are airing?

They seem to be targeting Black Americans.

In one of them, a Black woman is lamenting an abortion she had when she was young because she can no longer have a child. It doesn't come out an say it, but the suggestion is that her abortion made her sterile. The website name, from what I remember had the world "pregnancy" on it.

The second commercial involved a pollster asking people on the street what was the main cause of death in the Black community. He finally gets to a Black man before providing the answer: abortion. The commercial ends with another website name, though I. didn't catch it. Below that, in small letters, I did see another name, but again, I couldn't make it out.

Well, we know the right-wingers are targeting the Black community. The question is, why this approach? Are they back to raising fear levels in people in order to control them?

They've been pushing this all over the internet for a few years now, but, it has really picked up steam with widespread use of sock puppets and most posing as blacks on social media sites like Facebook.

Whenever you come across these sock puppets they should be reported.
