Conservative commentator Ben Shapiro, appearing Friday as the keynote speaker of the annual
March for Life on the National Mall in Washington,
shared with his audience a head-scratching scenario about abortion and Adolf Hitler.
“The argument, I guess here, would you kill baby
Hitler?” he started off, in a clip posted to Twitter. “And the truth is that no pro-life person on earth would kill baby Hitler. Because baby Hitler wasn’t Hitler — adult Hitler was Hitler. Baby Hitler was a baby.”
Shapiro, who is
Jewish, offered a suggestion: “What you presumably want to do with baby Hitler is take baby Hitler out of baby Hitler’s house and move baby Hitler into a better house, where he would not grow up to be Hitler.”
