Gloria Steinem Supports Abortion Because: “Forced Childbirth is the Single Biggest Cause...

FULL TITLE: Gloria Steinem Supports Abortion Because: “Forced Childbirth is the Single Biggest Cause of Global Warming”

“Forced childbirth is the single biggest cause of global warming,” Gloria Steinem said at a recent gala celebrating Planned Parenthood Greater Memphis Region’s 75th Anniversary.

Steinem, a prominent abortion activist in the feminist movement, gave the keynote address at the event, The Commercial Appeal reported. She used the opportunity to celebrate the nation’s largest abortion chain and push abortions.

Steinem began her 20-minute speech by promoting “reproductive rights.” She said: “Nothing but nothing is more important than ensuring our fundamental right to reproductive freedom. The principle that government power stops at our skin.”

She then went on to attribute global warming to “forced childbirth.” This comment reflects prior statements she made last year regarding Pope Francis and global warming. During an interview with Cosmopolitan, Steinem attributed global warming to the teachings of the Catholic Church on the sanctity of human life.

She said at the time, “…the human load on this earth is the biggest cause of global warming, and that is because of forcing women to have children they would not on their own choose to have…”

Steinem specifically linked global warming to Pope Francis: “I’m glad the Pope spoke out about global warming and it was very helpful, but does he know he’s causing it?”

Her answer to this is more abortions, and it fit right in with the Tennessee abortion affiliate’s goals for the evening. The Tennessee Planned Parenthood announced before Steinem’s talk that it plans to use the money raised from the event to build a second abortion facility in the area.

Steinem is exulted in liberal circles as an inspirational feminist. She constantly promotes abortion despite how abortion strips future women of their voices. This is one reason why many feminists identify as pro-life.

Patricia Heaton, a well-known actress from “The Middle” and leader with Feminists for Life, explained her pro-life view during an interview with The Blaze: “I find it impossible to subscribe to a philosophy that believes that the destruction of human life is a legitimate solution to a problem that is mostly social, economic and psychological. In reality, most women ‘choose’ abortion because they believe they have no other choice.”

Although abortion stops the heartbeats of thousands of females and continues to leave negative mental and physical effects on women, Gloria Steinem said in her speech that “there is no cause on earth more important” than giving women easy access to abortions.

Why don’t these libs that are so worried about the mere existence of humans causing global warming ever just kill THEMSELVES? If they really cared about the planet, that’s what they would do.

The biggest source of unnecessary pollution is importing millions of Muslims from third world countries then hiring more government air breathers to watch over them.

I’m shocked that the evil people are telling the truth about how they feel about life, I’ve said for years they want to get rid of people. They think they and their beliefs are the only ones worthy of inhabiting the Earth.

I think what she really means is poor, uneducated, people shouldn’t have children and global warming is as good an excuse as any to shame them into killing their own children.

Mizz Steinham and her severely twisted ilk are clinically insane sociopaths. To say something as irrational as this publicly and yet be allowed to walk freely among us is cause for deep concern.

This is a mental illness that could destroy this country if left unchecked and allowed to blossom. This bayotch is rubber-room bait.

It’s not forced, bitch. If you do the sex, you accept the consequences of YOUR action - a possible pregnancy.

A shameful and bigoted attack on the Catholic Church. Can you imagine if a public figure openly attacked Steinem’s Judaism like this?

Unbelievable that this is the ‘purpose’ to which she has dedicated her life.

I thought this vile b*tch had gone away. Obviously not. Still spewing hatred and death.

"Democrats are the party of DEATH!! 56 MILLION DEAD BABIES and women VOTE FOR MORE!!!"

Note that the states have never delegated to the feds, expressly via the Constitution, the specific power to regulate, tax and spend for abortions. This is evidenced in general by the following excerpts from the writings of previous generations of state sovereignty-respecting justices.

The reason that the feds are now in the abortion business is the following imo. Constitution-ignoring lawmakers, with the help of state sovereignty-ignoring, pro-abortion activist justices, are exploiting low-information women in conjunction with the ill-conceived 17th Amendment, and also the 19th Amendment.

More specifically, such women, along with most other citizens, are probably clueless about the federal government’s constitutionally limited powers, the consequence being that corrupt lawmakers are able to win the votes of such women with the constitutionally indefensible promise of federal abortion funding.

Remember in November !

Patriots need to support Trump / Pence by also electing a new, state sovereignty-respecting Congress that will not only work within its constitutional Article I, Section 8-limited powers to support Trump’s vision for making America great again for everybody, but will also put a stop to unconstitutonal federal taxes and likewise unconstitutional inteference in state affairs as evidenced by federal regulation and funding of vote-winning abortion.

Note that such a Congress will also probably be willing to fire state sovereignty-ignoring, pro-abortion activist justices.
