Quote:Also, federal d funding for abortion is already illegal. It's like side folks have a hard time keeping up with the conversation.

 

Doesn't really matter where the money goes, they are still propping up an abortion-performing entity. I guess we should  also trust PP to keep their word that their funding doesn't leak into other areas of their business. After all, they have proven to be very trustworthy in the past :thumbsup: .

 

Having not read the entire thread, has it already been brought up that the abortions performed by PP (and in general) are overwhelmingly minority?

 

Has it been brought up how poor PP's services (real mammograms, education, abortions, etc) are compared to most local women's health community centers? Or how the number of local women's health community centers enormously outweigh the number of PP centers?

"Even though Planned Parenthood has a total revenue of $1.3 billion — in 2013-14, PPFA reported an excess of revenue over expenses of $127.1 million, a revenue increase of $40 million from 2012) — it has consistently dropped the very services it likes to tout. The Family Research Council’s PP Fact Sheet, based on Planned Parenthood’s own annual reports, reveals the following:
 
From 2009 to 2013, cancer-screening and -prevention programs dropped by about half.
From 2009 to 2013, prenatal services dropped by more than half.
From 2009 to 2013, breast exams dropped by 41 percent. (PP does not do mammograms.)
In 2013, if a pregnant woman walked into a Planned Parenthood facility, she was 174 times more likely to receive an abortion than an adoption referral. In that year, PPFA performed 327,653 abortions while providing only 1,880 adoption referrals.
From 2011 to 2013, adoption referrals have decreased by 18 percent. According to Planned Parenthood’s 2013-14 report, out of total services for pregnant women (adoption referrals, prenatal services, abortion), abortion made up over 94 percent.
 
Prenatal care made up only about 5 percent of pregnancy services. Meanwhile, PP’s abortion numbers have consistently increased every year, from 289,000 in 2006 to 327,000 in 2013."
 

 

<div>"According to the pro-abortion Guttmacher Institute, 90 percent of the 8,409 “safety-net health centers” at which taxpayer-funded family-planning services were provided in 2010 were places other than Planned Parenthood. The vast majority of low-income women obtained subsidized family-planning services at:
• 3,165 federally qualified health centers
• 2,439 health-department clinics
• 1,324 other non-Planned Parenthood clinics
• 664 hospitals"

 
 
No one is going to miss PP.
