PP will be talked about more and more now that they are taking this to court.
And that's a good thing.
More women may be inclined to use their services.
Since, you know they're not all abortions.

The grand jury cleared Planned Parenthood of misusing fetal tissue, opting instead to indict Daleiden and Merritt, who made the videos and are accused of using fake driver's licenses to get into a Houston clinic.
Quote:
Both Daleiden and Merritt, who are from California, were indicted Jan. 25 on a charge of tampering with a governmental record, a felony punishable by up to 20 years in prison.
Daleiden also was indicted on a misdemeanor count related to purchasing human organs that carries up to a year in prison.
If the states would truly fund healthcare for low income folks, I'd be fine with UN funding PP. Let the folks who support them donate.
I am conflicted regarding who pays for birth control. I never used it. And I'm not sure that it is a health issue. Even though when I inquired about from my Dr., he said leave it alone and DH gets a vasectomy. I am conflicted about abortion after the 3 trimester. But, I am told by people who know, sometimes it is the best thing to do. My neice had to carry a baby all knew was dead until "Nature took its course" due to where she lived. IMO, the churches who teach birth control is a sin can support all their flock, not the USA taxpayer.
Abortion is a very personal thing. One size does not fit all. The government needs out of it. It is between a woman, her G-d, her Doctor and her family. I'm not ready to call every woman who had one a tramp or a *****. Both the sides fighting this issue need to find common ground and stop shooting folks they do not agree with.
Let me understand this, some right-wing group makes a phony video to incriminate PP and PP brought it on themselves? I guess should a bank gets robbed, they brought it on themselves for having money on hand.
Addressing the first post, the operative word is "alleged." The anti-abortion extremists have proven that their videos can't be taken at face value.

My church teaches life begins at quickening.
You don't want to fund birth control but you're willing to fund the outcome of not having birth control, seems penny wise and dollar foolish.
If PP went away tomorrow there would still be abortions, there were abortions before Roe v. Wade and there will continue to abortions if the SCOTUS decision was changed. The focus should be on preventing unwanted pregnancies, you are addressing the symptom not the disease and it's a shame because no one wants people to have abortions.

It has been my up close and personal experience that PP has been in the trenches for at least 60 years fighting within the anti abortion folks. They should have seen this coming a mile away. The employees who went to lunch and got sucked in by these zealots should have been trained the first day on the payroll to look out for chit like this.
My daughter had a medical problem . Her dr was very close to DH work so he took her to the dr quarterly. Those anti abortion people were picketing and assaulting people 50 years ago at her dr office building due to abortion provider being in the building. Daughter would cling to her dad and plead, oh daddy, don't make me do this quarterly for 3 years. The antis will never see another POV. Never.
Anybody with half a brain knows it. When the anti folks think it is ok to shoot people they see as going against the will of whatever God they believe in, it is instructive.
In the 50+ years I have been following this and giving money to PP, etc. nobody has ever tried to find common ground. IMO, it is as bad as the NRA telling us we are all entitled to have a rocket launcher in the back yard.
