I'm not sure why folks don't comprehend this. What does planned parenthood do? Well 5% of their funding provides abortions......but a FAR FAR larger amount provides birth control. So what happens if you lose that?

Abortions go up. A LOT.

So I don't get it, these attacks on planned parenthood seem to be a excellent way to cause more abortions to occur. Its not like planned parenthood is the only place to get an abortion. Or don't people think about the unintended consequences at all?

The abortion rate is declining at fairly rapid rate.

Can't poor people go to the local county health clinic for help with birth control if Planned Parenthood closes? Planned Parenthood isn't in the majority of counties in America. Where are those people who are living there going for birth control?

Ofcourse, that's the intention of these fake Christian conservatives. If you want to decrease abortions, increase access to birth control not restrict it.

These sycophants are nothing more than propagandists doing what they're told.

This is the leftist mantra at the moment and it is simply not true. There are many, many other options for free birth control which is cheap even when the government is not paying for it. The proposals in congress are that the funding going to Planned Parenthood go to these other providers. Defunding PP will not make one shred of difference in the number of pregnancies and honest people will admit it.

This is all about continuing to fund the number one baby butcher in the country.

Liberals need a blatant lie as a basis for their argument because the truth on this issue is unpalatable.
