Quoting myself: "If you were to abort a large portion of babies from lower income families, crime would be reduced. Blacks are disproportionately represented in the poor income bracket; therefore, aborting black babies would lead to reductions in crime."

I don't know if he meant it this way, but if he did, I would agree with the statement. An analogous argument would be: "if you put all anglers in jail, there would be less sexual harassment." I have no doubt it's true--most anglers are men, and men make up 99% of sexual harassment perpetrators. The fact that angling has nothing to do with sexual harassment doesn't negate the validity of the statement.
