I would suggest more black lives have been lost to PP than the civil war and the time up until after the civil rights movement.

Surface wise, they MUST be helpful, but can you support the recent activities and even the early ideological reasoning that they used? I doubt not.
Why, oh, why can liberals and progressives support abortion when yet they will literally scream if some one kills a kitten?
I just don't get it. "All Life matters."
Well, yes, I do get it. It is a twisted form of the "ME" philosophy:
"Abortions make life much easier for me and my friends after a little mistake."

It's not like conservatives are being logical or anything.....this sums it up nicely:
And of course federal funds are not allowed to be used for abortions!!
Planed parenthood needs to just be stricly prevention then and send all abortions to doctors who have to do it pro bono . th egovernment could mandate this easily.
ALso Planned parenthood founder was a racist by her own statements and admissions So claiming th ehigh ground should not be a option for them at all.

This is good
It takes the Young Turks to expose a plot by Sarah Palin and Fox News !!!!
A little hard to follow however.
They keep cutting off the good parts.
Good video just the same.

I have been saying this to many people on social media (Facebook, etc.) who start spewing on about PP. The VAST majority of women go there for cheap, fast OB/GYN services. Abortions are such a tiny fraction that it's laughable the way people are reacting and "want it shut down".
Does cheap OB/GYN services wash away the stain of what they are doing to life that should be constitutionally protected......These stains cannot be washed away and I love watching progressive liberals defend and justify it. I am anti-abortion but not for religious reasons.......I value life......A unborn child is alive....Right.

Of course, Palin is going to make little sense.
As a preface, I have been to Planned Parenthood multiple times in my life, and no time to get an abortion. The first time was as a young teen and I had had sex for the first time. I wasn't sure if I was going to have sex again for a long time. I just did not know. At the time, my mother was in ungrad Poly Sci at Berkley, didn't have much money. She suggested I get birth control, in case it happened again. Condoms are not 100% and a pregnancy at that age would be disasterous. She gave me and the boyfriend BART fare and $20 to go to Planned Parenthood. I, in fact, chose to wait a few more years to have sex again, but PP was a fantastic resource. I have been back a few times over my life when I didn't have insurance for yearly exams, birth control, std testing. Oddly, they never pushed me to do anything, I just got a LOT of good advice from them and low cost NECESSARY services.
Here is the video that shows how ridiculous conservatives are about this:

The small minority of southerners who owned slaves were racist. Not every southerner was racist. Prove every southerner was racist.
Why not? It's not a racist symbol anymore.

Without Abortions Planned Parenthood would not be able to be in business. That is why the whole 3% is BS. Over half of their revenue is from on obortion procedures. This is why most people have a problem with PP.
On top of that a lot of their employees are insensitive when it comes to other people's opinion of what a fetus actually is. Those videos show just how insensitive some of those employees are.
BTW, I am somewhere in the middle on the whole abortion issue, but those videos and the way they talk about aborts fetuses is extremely offensive. I do believe the videos were heavily edited, but regardless, the people on those videos have no business working in that field!
