Planned Parenthoods latest, profanity-laced ad did not resonate with supporters as it had hoped.
Launched earlier this month, the Planned Parenthood of New York City ad campaign promoted abortion and promiscuous sex with the slogan Protect our freedom to f.
But on Friday, Planned Parenthood took down the ad campaign, supposedly because it stirred up more shock and outrage than support, according to The Federalist.
The campaign video, which dropped 20 f bombs in 45 seconds, was taken off Planned Parenthoods YouTube channel sometime Friday evening, and the campaign fundraising website now redirects people to a generic donations page. LifeNews also could not find any references to the campaign on Planned Parenthood of NYCs social media accounts.
The abortion giant had hoped the profanity would resonate with young adults.
Gerard Caputo, CEO of BBH NY CCO, which created the ads, previously told AdWeek that Planned Parenthood of New York City wanted a campaign that is not easy to ignore.
Freedom to F is meant to speak to a younger generation more empowered than ever and hopefully willing to help, Caputo said. It all starts with the courage to do something different and we believe we have already succeeded.
SIGN THE PETITION! Congress Must De-Fund Planned Parenthood Immediately
But it gave the opposite impression.
Reacting to the ad earlier this month, Tony Perkins of the Family Research Council wrote: As offended as you are by the language, I think we should all be more offended that our tax dollars are paying for it! If Planned Parenthood wants to put its perverse vulgarity on display, thats their right. But they shouldnt have a right to make Americans foot the bill for it.
Planned Parenthood is the largest abortion chain in America. Its most recent annual report showed a record income of $1.46 billion, with about half a billion dollars coming from taxpayers.
Some of those tax dollars are used to support Planned Parenthoods risky sex education program, which it pushes on vulnerable young school students across the country. Others are used to subsidize its massive abortion practice, which aborts about 320,000 unborn babies every year. And those actions are more horrible than any ad campaign, no matter how profane.
This is a giant abuse of women. One would think women enjoy having an abortion. Women need to fight PP. PP is no friend to. Women as to PPand the Democrat pattern, they are simply cash cows. Outrageous.
that’s crazy talk!
Actually what PP did wrong was think that they understand modern culture. It is not finding a “better word.”
PP is a bully. That a look at what happened when the pink ribbon breast cancer laddies decided not to pay tribute money to PP. PP did an all out bullying campaign that hurt “women’s health.” far more than anything PP ever did to help women’s health.
PP has increasingly grown out of touch with the general population, which is why state laws are not causing them to have to close so many abortion mills.
This is a social pendulum that is swinging the other way and soon PP will be about as relevant as buggy whips, except among a few perverts.
I guess they did that to themselves.
They’ve once again revealed what’s most important to them. F*cking is more important than human lives.
I actually viewed that sickening video - the unethical/amoral trying to convince the misinformed/under-informed that murdering babies is not nearly as important as their next orgasm.
I expect the jihadis will start bombing these ‘health centers’ before the real Americans will...
It gained them all kinds of free press in coverage of the outrage.
It did it’s job.
Hint, its not about the sex, its about the unborn baby murders.
I heard that maybe if they run out into the street and shake their fists up at heaven to show Gd their anger at Him having made babies come from sex, He might respond. Maybe that would be smarter, since then they wouldnt have to kill all those babies. They need more righteous anger at the universe.
After they scream at Gd for wanting sex to never make babies, there are some other things they could hassle him about:
- Why cant you eat gallons of ice cream every day without getting fat?
- Why do you have to breathe air to survive? Its so annoying when you want to scuba dive or have a respiratory infection.
- Why cant we fly with our arm power?
- Why do we get wrinkly and weak as we age?
- Why cant we drink alcohol all day without getting drunk?
- And that whole dying thing. What is up with that??
This mentality is no different than the Dont kill the job! mentality of certain trade groups.
