Musician Tom Petty’s estate donates to Planned Parenthood

The estate of late musician Tom Petty has donated $150,000 to Planned Parenthood and is encouraging others to do so as well.

The donation was announced via an Instagram post, stating, “The Tom Petty estate is proud to strongly support Planned Parenthood’s efforts to preserve important healthcare in the USA by donating $150K to Planned Parenthood Federation, Planned Parenthood Gulf Coast, and Planned Parenthood Greater New York.”

Before his death, Petty participated in at least one fundraiser for the abortion giant.

Though “healthcare” is mentioned in the post, Planned Parenthood is committed to abortion access, with “health care” used as a known euphemism for abortion.

The post continued by noting that Petty’s widow, Dana, has worked at the abortion corporation.

“Tom’s widow, Dana Petty, worked for Planned Parenthood for over a decade in various roles, including as a counselor, and Tom was quite proud of that fact,” it concluded. “It is in this spirit that we encourage everyone to support the important access to rape kits and counseling, early screenings for cancer and of course the right to choose whether or not to become a parent.”

Of course, Planned Parenthood is not a health care provider upon which Americans rely; over the years, the number of abortions committed by the abortion giant has reliably increased, while legitimate health care services have steadily decreased. This trend was borne out yet again in its latest annual report, which revealed that contraceptive services, cancer screenings, preventive care visits, adoption referrals, and client numbers have decreased. Prenatal care meanwhile has plummeted 80% since 2010.

Abortion procedures increased since the previous annual report, and overall, Planned Parenthood’s abortion numbers have increased by 20% in the last 10 years, and by 100% since the year 2000. The number of abortions reported in the latest annual report — 392,715 — is a record high for the abortion corporation.

But it appears in life he may have supported it. Disappointing to say the least.

Psalm 106:38
New American Standard Bible

38 And shed innocent blood,
The blood of their sons and their daughters
Whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan;
And the land was defiled with the blood.

From the article:

“Tom’s widow, Dana Petty, worked for Planned Parenthood for over a decade in various roles, including as a counselor, and Tom was quite proud of that fact,”

At least that’s what they’re claiming in the article

Tom said “Before I abort myself. with what will someday be referred to as a George Floyd-esque cocktail of fatal drugs, I just want to encourage everyone to support abortion for everyone, all the time, under all circumsntaces!”

I just spent 10 minutes and could not find a single instance of when Tom Petty made a statement supporting abortion rights.

Sounds like another Mrs. (ex-)Bezos. Leftist scum spending their husbands' money against their wishes.

I don’t know exactly what he thought but I always wonder if people have looked into and read a Bible and considered Eternity

Revelation 20:12-15

I've tried to copy from the links and see if I can properly modify the HTML and save it in the 📲 📱 cellphone for posting - they're being shared rather rapidly, praise the Lord ✝️🙏🛐

I hated all my toil in which I toil under the sun, seeing that I must leave it to the man who will come after me, and who knows whether he will be wise or a fool? Yet he will be master of all for which I toiled and used my wisdom under the sun. This also is vanity. - Ecclesiastes 2:17-18

Spend it on righteousness while you have it, or your descendants will spend it elsewhere.

He was a worthless drug addict, high while performing, but since he had millions of Lucite-brained, glue sniffing fans, who appeared to enjoy his banal and interminable noise-sequences, he made money.

Then, true to form, he donated this fraction of his estate to perhaps the most nihilist organization on the planet.
