What makes choosing an abortion for sex selection radical? That has been going on for a long time.
If, in fact, they are successful in depleting the number of baby girls born, I can see serious problems in the future with "not enough women to go around", and it may affect the sex-crime rate. Just sayin'...
What is the gender war that Dems have accused Republicans of and all of a sudden we see something like Planned Parenthood performing gender specific abortions? It makes me wonder but then I only know that the early progressives in the last century were in favor of things like that.
YUP! The Repugs have devalued women so many more people prefer male babies...
First, every and all abortions could potentially be gender specific if they mother somehow knows the gender.
Second, what does it have to do with a gender war? Are you assume one gender would be aborted more often than another? And a political party would support that? Why?
Does one of the parties support giving tax money to Planned Parenthood? If they do then they must be willing to go along with abortion by gender. Have you failed to see any indication of girls being aborted for what ever reason. Go ahead and watch some of the videos on this thread.
The Dems are the ones that accuse the Republicans of a war on women and it seems to me that this very topic has been involved in what is really an attack on Catholics that will later be the same thing on all religions. Yes, I believe that this attack was on religion not on Catholic non-acceptance of abortion.
When my wife had her sonogram to determine whether the baby would be normal or not because I, the father, was a bit too old at the time of conception we could have found out about the sex but we wanted a girl and wanted it to be a time of joy when he turned out that way. I was really unhappy when that doctor turned his butt up to me and I saw his male tools. I really don't understand any other reason people would want to know the sex before birth but maybe the reason is to get rid of girls.
No one posted anything about fraud. This is about a horrific mind set that abortion can be allowed for sex selection. PP has been taped, without them knowing it, as allowing it and telling a woman how to do it. That is illegal in our country. That would be breaking the law.
The hell. It's right at the top of the OP. Except the OP thinks it's the 65+ crowd who's getting the abortions.
I know how to do it and I didn't even have to ask someone at PP. If you ask me I'll tell you how to do it too. That is answering questions, and it's not a bad thing. The bad thing in this case was the "sting" or "gotcha" that somone set out to get. They purposely put someone in a no win situation and they didn't do a damn thing but answer questions. Nothing wrong.
Tell that to 60 Minutes. They have won awards for their undercover investigations. I guess if it's a liberal investigation that makes it ok.
Prove they do. The law and accountants say otherwise.
Do they get the money? Is that not enough to say that they use it for abortions? It sure is for me, but then I don't lean left, either. How do those accountants know what federal money is used? Surely they just throw all their money into one pile and spend out of it. That is what happens with Social Security taxes that are thrown into the common pile by the Congress.
