Forced sterilization was actually a policy (or at least a legal option often carried out) of many western countries in the early 1900s and I for one would not like to see it return.
done well into the 70's or even 80's 90's for retards in some states in US I'm pretty sure.
I mean, tuskegee was only exposed in what, the sixties?
also hitler got all that eugenics stuff from movement in britain/US.
Err tuskegee was not forced sterilization. And I'm pretty sure it ended in the 60s. There may have been a few cases afterwards, but not nearly as many. The holocaust kind of put people off the whole thing.

yeah it mostly ended in the 60's.
I just meant it wasn't over in 1901. actually I think it started about then and got rolling in the 20's.
tuskegee goes to ethics, and it was a racial thing which is the basis of eugenics (kill nonwhites and inferior whites, in a nutshell).
