However, it seems to me that most are equally disturbed about the moral and ethical natural laws that they feel are violated in the harvesting process that was exposed in the videos.
Most dont need to see the uncut version to make a moral ethical judgement about this.
If they find PP did nothing wrong legally will it make the clips we all saw any less disturbing?
And will it justify or validate the practice of harvesting and selling fetal tissue?
It seems to me that it comes down to how you view the dish of fetal parts that they are picking through. Do you see it as a disrespected chopped up baby, with arms, legs, eyeballs staring back at you, or do you see it as nothing but a tissue sample?
If they find that PP did everything legal, should the Tissue issue just go away?
So, is this a moral issue for you or is it merely a legal issue?

In another post it was argued that people are only outraged over weather Planned Parenthood was involved in the illegal activity of selling body parts as a commodity, and it isnt about what they actually do with the aborted fetus. However, it seems to me that most are equally disturbed about the moral and ethical natural laws that they feel are violated in the harvesting process that was exposed in the videos.
I acknowledge that we have not seen the full unedited video. So there could be more to the story. But, as I have participated in different threads, it seems to come down to a persons moral compass. Most dont need to see the uncut version to make a moral ethical judgement about this. If they find PP did nothing wrong legally will it make the clips we all saw any less disturbing? And will it justify or validate the practice of harvesting and selling fetal tissue?
It seems to me that it comes down to how you view the dish of fetal parts that they are picking through. Do you see it as a disrespected chopped up baby, with arms, legs, eyeballs staring back at you, or do you see it as nothing but a tissue sample?
If they find that PP did everything legal, should the Tissue issue just go away? Or should the law be changed? Should it be allowed only for important medical research? Or should random companies be allowed to use these parts however and in whatever research they deem important for their business? Or should it be disallowed all together?
So, is this a moral issue for you or is it merely a legal issue? If it is ruled that PP complied entirely with the law, will it make a difference in how you feel about what you saw in those videos? Im trying to sort this out for myself, so thought I would ask how others are viewing it.
I think I liked my head buried in the sand over this issue better.
I welcome the Mods to relocate this if needed. Thanks

Abortion is both a moral and ethical issue of such magnitude that the choice can only be left up to the woman who will have to live with the consequences of the decision for the entirety of her life.
Period.

Did PP say the vids were not real?
I thought they were suing the film makers for privacy laws, not for falsely making a vid.

However, I would have a hard time with knowing someone was making money on it or that it was used for non medical purposes.

I wonder how many would sign the donation form if they watched the video first?
