The Pro-Murder folks HATE this movie.

Spoiler alert: "Unplanned" tells the truth.

Objective reviews have this as a good showing of what PP is all about.

The rabid reviews are really out there.

P.S. Thanks for the Spoiler Alert.

:) LOL

MPAA slapped an 'R' rating on Unplanned because it showed an abortion.

But I thought abortions were just normal medical procedures, you know, like a tonsillectomy?

Well, technically, it was palefaced bureaucrats who committed industrial scale mass murder in the 1970s. Planned Parenthood would NEVER have gotten as far as it did had Roe v. Wade not been legalized by the Supreme Court. We would have had it revoked earlier had that idiot Kennedy not swung the vote in favor of keeping it back during the 1990s.

And nice to see Unplanned’s doing very well in the box office. The movie definitely deserves it, in order to spread the message. We shouldn’t just repeal Roe v. Wade, we should go even further, to create a Constitutional amendment outright banning abortion, just like with slavery. Of course, then again, we tried something similar with alcohol, and that just led to the rise of organized crime. It’s not going to be an enjoyable film, but it’s definitely necessary thanks to abortion having a huge chokehold.

And funny you should make that comparison between the Holocaust and Roe v. Wade, because in France, Simone Veil was instrumental in getting France’s own version of Roe v. Wade passed, and had the audacity of actually using her status as a Holocaust survivor to get it passed. Morbidly cynical and sick, that’s all I can say about that...

Well, the original animated film most certainly was suitable for children (heck, the Crows arguably were a positive depiction of blacks since if it weren’t for them, Dumbo wouldn’t have gotten the confidence to fly). Bear in mind, this was BEFORE Disney started turning left during the 1990s and back when Disney was a truly wholesome family company, and espoused truly conservative views.

Don’t know about the remake, though.

Dunno would have been aborted in today’s progressive world.
