Des Moines, IA -- The dangerous abortion drug RU 486 has killed 13 women and injured thousands more, but leading abortion business Planned Parenthood continues to violate FDA guidelines about its usage. A pro-life group says the abortion center is not giving women the complete drug but mixing dosages.

Why does this not surprise me? Planned Parenthood is an evil organization that has no regard for human life whatsoever. Their federal funding should be immediately cut off and they should be shut down!

There is no difference between RU-486 and the Birth Control Pills millions of women take each and every day.

I would like to throw a liberal argument back in their face.

“RU 486 should be banned. If it saves JUST ONE LIFE of a child, or young women, it is worth it.”

Idiots.

Class-action lawsuit would solve this problem.

Planned Parenthood Offers Walk-in Abortions In Iowa With Webcam Doctor
Wednesday, September 10 2008
Release: Immediate

http://irlc.org/what-s-new/press-releases/planned-parenthood-offers-walk-in-abortions-with-webcam-doctor/

DES MOINES—September 10, 2008— Planned Parenthood of Greater Iowa is now offering no appointment, walk-in abortions at its clinics without a physician on site. How will they do this? By offering dangerous RU 486 chemical abortions at all of their locations, with a Des Moines-based abortionist consulting by webcam.

More Profitable for Planned Parenthood, More Dangerous for Women

It gets worse. Planned Parenthood does not follow FDA Protocol for RU 486. Planned Parenthood gives women a cheaper combination of the pills in an RU 486 abortion, against the recommendations of the Food and Drug Administration, which makes these abortions more profitable for the abortion group and more dangerous for women.

Planned Parenthood gives women a single RU 486 pill, instead of three recommended by the FDA, then ups the dosage of the less expensive prostaglandin, Misoprostol, which expels the baby.

Planned Parenthood also cuts back the number of appointments the FDA recommends for an RU 486 abortion from three to two, which also increases Planned Parenthood’s profits by reducing office and staffing expenses.

Women Facing Their Abortion Alone

RU 486 abortions are less messy for Planned Parenthood and more traumatizing for women, because the women are forced to deal with the blood and the dead baby at home – alone. RU 486 abortions take longer and are bloodier than a surgical abortion.

In 2007, a woman in Lincoln, NE almost bled to death after Dr. Meryl Severson, Medical Director for Planned Parenthood of Council Bluffs and Nebraska, performed an abortion on her. An attorney for Planned Parenthood blamed the victim, saying she “knew the risks.” You can bet the Planned Parenthood attorneys will use the same defense in Iowa, when women start dying or suffering serious injury from RU 486 in Iowa.
