Sickening!

Evil continues its march. What kind of person goes to get an abortion because they are offering a free Ipod? Does Apple know about this? I certainly wouldn't want my products being used in such promotions regardless of how I felt about the issue personally.

[Ma3lst0rm]

Here is the link to the ipod abortion promotion:

Here is where you can comment to Apple about it.

"Just like any other business, a key target group for Planned Parenthood is young people,” Scott said. "And once a teenager is hooked, he or she can prove to be a good source of income for many years to come.”

That is just sick! It infuriates me to hear and read about things like this.

[Ma3lst0rm]

I just sent this to Apple:

"My daughter was just asking for an Ipod and I was considering purchasing it but after seeing the Ipod promotion at the Planned Parenthood web site I've reconsidered. It is just totally in bad taste regardless of your political persuasion and I'm surprised that Apple would allow such a politically explosive association to be made concerning one of its most popular products. I understand that Apple may not have complete control over such promotions but I’m sure Apple does have control over how such Promotions associate themselves with Apple products and their brand names."

It's disgusting on many accounts--in fact, the very thought of this makes me want to vomit.

Giving away stuff that teens and young adults my age are obviously interested in.

Their reception of federal and state tax dollars to fund this Satanic marketing ploy.

Seeing them not as human beings, but as cash cows ripe to milk.

And as a 20 year old college student, I know enough people that will take this sick deal hook, line, and sinker.

They need to be stopped now. The obvious first step is to defund these sickos and without delay.

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

...but the abortion business has come up with a corporate marketing plan to lure teens with free iPods and movie tickets.

A lucky drawing to entice people to kill their babies. How nice. /s

A Professor is lecturing his class and states that:

"There are no absolutes. There is no black and white, only grey"

To which a student raises his and and asks,

"Are you absolutely sure?"

[Wiseghy]

I'm no fan of PP. However, they are NOT enticing folks in for an abortion, as the article seems to imply. They seem to be trying to get them to come in use their "community" services for counseling on birth control & safe sex.

I'm not certain why they seem to care so much about building "floor traffic". I admit, it's gross if they are trying build relationships with young people if they only want to perform abortions, however I suspect the reality is more complex.

[monkeyshine]

Sickos.

Holly Patterson

The following testimonial was on the PPGG "shared stories" section, now removed toarchives ; found from this website:

From a long time happy customer who says that she first came to PP when, at 11 yrs old, her 17 year old boyfriend sexually assaulted her. Her wording is that of someone who has bought into the PP schtick hook, line, and millstone:

It Keeps Us Safe

I was raped at 11, by my 17 year old boyfriend. I chose not to tell my parents because I didn't think their involvement would help, that was the right choice for me. [emphasis mine] Planned Parethood helped me deal with the aftermath of the rape allowing me to deal and cope as best as I could in my own way. I was 14 when I decided to start having sex, the day I made that choice I made an appointment to get birth control pills. I'm 17 now, I've been with my current boyfriend for about two years. During that time i've been HIV and STD tested four times. Right now I'm sitting in the waiting room while my boyfriend gets the results for his HIV test. We love each other so we're responsible and Planned Parenthood helps us to do that.

- name withheld -

As noted in the article, PP is looking for long term victims, oops, customers.

I looked at the card you can print out, a smart guy could get a load of movie passes if he simply got every female he knows to go and whizz on a pregnancy test...

One of the sickest things I've ever heard of. "Kill your baby, get an Ipod."

Abortion is not about saving women’s lives!

Studies Find Abortions Have Long-Term Adverse Effects

Total Abortions since 1973

45,951,133

------------------------------------------------------------

Why the drop after 1960? (in deaths of women from illegal abortions)

The reasons were new and better antibiotics, better surgery and the establishment of intensive care units in hospitals. This was in the face of a rising population. Between 1967 and 1970 sixteen states legalized abortion. In most it was limited, only for rape, incest and severe fetal handicap (life of mother was legal in all states). There were two big exceptions — California in 1967, and New York in 1970 allowed abortion on demand. Now look at the chart carefully.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Abortion Statistics - Decision to Have an Abortion (U.S.)

· 25.5% of women deciding to have an abortion want to postpone childbearing

· 21.3% of women cannot afford a baby

· 14.1% of women have a relationship issue or their partner does not want a child

· 12.2% of women are too young (their parents or others object to the pregnancy)

· 10.8% of women feel a child will disrupt their education or career

· 7.9% of women want no (more) children

· 3.3% of women have an abortion due to a risk to fetal health

2.8% of women have an abortion due to a risk to maternal health

----------------------------------------------------------------------

So how many women’s lives have been saved by abortion?

Only about 3% of abortions since 1972 were reported to be “due to a risk to maternal health.” A reasonable person would recognize that not all of those cases represent a lethal risk. But let’s say they did. That means that nearly 45 million fetuses were butchered to save the lives of about 1.3 million women. Or put another way; 35 babies are killed to save each woman.

Abortion was legal in all 50 states prior to Roe v. Wade in cases of danger to the life of the woman.

I have been repeating his for a decade--- abortion and birth control will be the death of western civilization. Does anyone honestly believe that if 43 million abortions had not been performed by these monsters that we would have such a flood of illegal aliens?
