Methinks those investigations are in the works.

I wasn't aware only PP did this.

Doctors and other clinics no longer prescribe contraceptives?

Do schools no longer have sex ed?

I do think that abortion is pretty barbaric. It reminds me of how ancient cultures used to get rid of unwanted babies by exposure. Or some cultures practiced child sacrifice.

In context of the culture, it wasn't seen as bad or evil. I am hesitant to label any of the people that did this as bad or evil, even though the act seems barbaric to me.

I see abortion the same way. Our culture has pretty much made it an acceptable practice, and it's easy for people to dismiss the value of life when it comes to an unborn child. Many of these children are well past the point where it's not arguable if they are alive or not. But we've been conditioned to live in technicalities, forgetting the aspects of life and instead saying things like, "It's not 'alive' unless it's born." The people who believe this aren't necessarily bad or evil, but I do think that in order to justify the acts they do need to fool themselves.

It also disturbs me that the racist origins of Planned Parenthood come from the desire to limit the amount of black and/or poor babies. It was Sanger's "Final Solution".

In a few decades (hopefully not a few centuries), the whole abortion thing may be seen as horrible as we see slavery today.

Many of the children and grandchildren of the Rowe v Wade generation are already appalled and are behaving much more responsibly than did their me first free love forebearers.
Pro-choice people outnumber pro-life people by 47% to 46%, and have been making gains.

U.S. Still Split on Abortion: 47% Pro-Choice, 46% Pro-Life

Open your ****ing eyes. There is a massive contingent of this country that isn't getting sex ed and that doesn't have access to affordable contraception.

We pay record of dollars in education, and kids aren't getting educated?

Throw more money in!

As for affordable contraception, generic oral route costs $9 a month.

Thats 3 cents a day.

You look at both as "sub-human".

Not to mention the fact that you're a disgusting human being.
Getting birth control from there is now supporting slavery to you people? Where do you get this stuff, it's comic gold!
