Planned Parenthood Mysteries & Scandals

by: Malcolm A. Kline, April 30, 2008

The once-glowing image of Planned Parenthood (PP) has become tarnished in the wake of revelations that PP employees eagerly sought donations to abort black babies in several large states, as a reporter for the student newspaper at UCLA discovered. Now, black pro-lifers, many of them ministers, are taking on the abortion provider, ubiquitous on many college campuses, although the dissenters’ efforts receive little media attention.

“Planned Parenthood plants itself in inner city neighborhoods frequently next to schools,” Day Gardner of Black Americans for Life said in front of PP’s northeast Washington, D. C. offices on April 24. “There’s a school right there, ladies and gentlemen,” she said, literally pointing to PP’s neighbor, the School for Arts and Learning, a public charter school.

Later, in the late-morning news conference, a teacher from the school complained that the speakers were too loud for special education students attempting to take a standardized test. One of the attendees pointed out that that is precisely the group that Planned Parenthood targets.

Gardner herself made history as the first black semi-finalist in the Miss America pageant. She has been involved in the pro-life movement for a number of years.

Planned Parenthood gets about $300 million a year in federal subsidies. This largesse makes up approximately a third of the group’s budget.

President Reagan defunded Planned Parenthood, a ban that his successor, George H. W. Bush kept in place. President Clinton lifted the ban which the pro-life President George W. Bush never slapped back on.

“I am absolutely stunned when I talk to young girls who went into Planned Parenthood clinics and are told that what is inside them is not a baby and are injected with saline solution,” the Reverend Jesse Peterson said....

Let’s count the scandals -

Telling a “13 yr old” not to tell PP when she came in that her boyfriend was 22.

Not verifying the ages of girls who come in.

Telling a “donor” that indeed his donation could be used to specifically abort black babies.

Not having an independent Dr verify the “irreparable harm” that NOT having a late term abortion would cause.

I put this in the face of a blind supporter of “choice”.

She said that that money doesn’t go to abortions, but toward other services.

I said - hey, if you pay for my food, housing, and utilities, I’ll go buy a corvette and you can tell me that you didn’t by the car for me.

PP is an evil organization and I can never fathom how doctors, nurses etc can participate in this most evil of actions ever committed by man.

That said: donations to help black women get abortions was not to get rid of black babies but the “HELP” poor black women have access, like ‘whitey’ = It wasn't ‘racial’ but for ‘equality’ and, I think if one researched it, the evidence would point to the black activists demanding equal access...

For them now to try to turn this around as a black genocide accusation is blatant and disingenuous. Besides that, if they still want to claim it was a deliberate action to kill black babies = then let them look at their “friends’ the democrats, who called for this “equality” - and let's remember, no one was forced to have an abortion - the hue and cry has been to have equal access

The caller kept specifically saying that the donation was for aborting black babies, and the PP employee kept saying “you want to make a donation specifically for black women.” There was a kind of disconnect or refusal to acknowledge what the caller was actually saying.

This should be old news. PP was started as a way to cleanse the gene pool (blacks and other undesirables), and blacks make up 40% of their customers.

The abortion provider threw a null pointer error trying to process the term “aborting black babies”. She couldn’t contemplate that she was in the baby killing business. The only thing ever echoed back to her is that she is in the fetus removal business.

you are right. It goes into one pot and they divvy out of it - their choice. And if the feds give that much, how much of the remainder comes other governmental (tax payer) entities - state, county, municipal????

Plus they’ve had “surplus revenue” (ie, PROFIT) of billions in the last year.
