Planned Parenthood Director Leaves, Has Change of Heart



Watching something like that must leave a horrific, indelible image in your mind.

I can imagine her change of heart - who could continue to support the practice after watching a living, breathing, human baby torn to shreds?

Start slow applause. Louder, and then, even more loud.

I've seen 2 abortions in real life, and a few ultrasounds of them being performed.

Still pro choice. I've also witnessed a friend try to kill herself by consuming a bunch of sleeping pills and vodka because she was pregnant and the protesters outside of her local planned parenthood scared her. Yes, she had some issues, but she was trying to get a LEGAL procedure done, but instead tried to take her own life because she couldn't bear to be a mother at 15. She ended up getting an abortion anyway, much later than she could have originally.

jet thanks for posting your experiences. all women most certainly know what an abortion when they have one. no woman, no matter what the circumstance should ever have to seek out and risk her life with a back alley abortion, a coat hanger or suicide, as answer to end an unwanted pregnancy. abortion for that reason alone should remain safe, legal and affordable for all class of woman

Since when did adoption become a dirty word? Most of us know an adopted person and they are doing just fine in their adopted home. Planned Parenthood won't push for adoption since abortion brings in more money for them.

There is nothing militant about Phil Kline, he stays within the law. He tried to investigate Tiller for doing abortions on underage girls and not reporting if they were sexually abused. He had a good investigation going until Morrison (Tiller's friend) was voted in. Morrison would not go ahead with the investigation.

not all adopted children do well in their adoptive homes. most I have talked despite growing up in a household where they were taken care of they still felt they were missing something, that they didn't quite fit in. they feel unlike their parents. it isn't until they are older and if they meet their biological parent that the puzzle of how they feel come together. they then see their mannerisms and parts of their personality. it is a rare and special woman that gives up her child for adoption. a percentage of women who don't/can't perhaps should have aborted make for terrible mothers. their children are often abused or are subject to a life of neglect, crime, drugs and poverty. many grow up to repeat the values they were taught, continuing the cycle of welfare, adding to the jail and prison population. again the tax payer pays for it all one way or the other

Some children do not do well so let's kill all of them. Not a good rational. See how stupid we get when we play God. And some want to kill the children of the poor just because they may grow up and go to jail.

Abortion is a money-losing proposition for Planned Parenthood. Only the very well-to-do pay the actual costs. The rest are heavily subsidized by the generous contributions of compassionate individuals, organizations, and corporations.

Planned Parenthood makes information about adoption available to pregnant girls and women who seek advice. For example...
