Planned Parenthood's dirty little secrets
The Daily Campus ^ | 9/18/08 | Colleen Kopp

Posted on 09/20/2008 11:34:42 AM PDT by wagglebee

Planned Parenthood, an organization that claims to promote women's health and well-being, has a deeply stained history of racism, hatred and lies.

Margaret Sanger, the founder of Planned Parenthood, summed up the purpose of her organization with this statement: "More children from the fit, less from the unfit."

It sounds like something out of Nazi Germany, like eugenics or creating a master race. Sanger founded the American Birth Control League in 1923, which later became the Planned Parenthood Federation of America, Inc. She was a passionate advocate for eugenics, a movement that essentially tried to wipe out any human being deemed genetically "unfit."

Another well-known fan of eugenics? Adolf Hitler.

In Sanger's autobiography, she wrote, "The eugenists wanted to shift the birth control emphasis from less children for the poor to more children for the rich. We went back to that and sought first to stop the multiplication of the unfit. This appeared the most important and greatest step towards race betterment."

She continued, "Birth control itself, often denounced as a violation of natural law, is nothing more or less than the facilitation of the processes of weeding out the unfit, of preventing the birth of defectives or of those who will become defectives."

Most of the people Sanger named "defectives" or "unfit" were minorities. One of her goals was to "exterminate the Negro population," a phrase she used in a documented letter to an associate while discussing the future of the organization. Sanger's words should send shivers down spines.

Although Sanger dedicated her life to providing birth control for the "unfit" of the nation, Planned Parenthood still hails their founder as "one of the movement's great heroes." People have not forgotten the horribly racist principles Planned Parenthood was founded on. An April, 2008 protest in Washington D.C. addressed the racism still found in Planned Parenthood today. Day Gardner, President of the National Black Pro-Life Union, said we "must wake up and stand up to this racist organization that purposefully plants abortion facilities firmly in black and minority neighborhoods and urban communities - sometimes, right next-door to schools."

Statistics show that African-American babies make up 20 percent of live births, but 36 percent of abortions. Rev. Jesse Peterson told the crowd at the protest, "before you go to bed tonight, more than 1,500 babies will be killed in a black woman's womb."

Douglas R. Scott is the president of Life Decisions International and the author of "Bad Choices: A Look Inside Planned Parenthood." In his article "Killing More Minorities than the Ku Klux Klan," he said, "If a bigot really wanted to make sure there are fewer people of color, he would not join the Ku Klux Klan's crusade; he would join Planned Parenthood's. After all, Planned Parenthood is much more effective than the Klan was at the height of its terror. Planned Parenthood is killing more people than the Klan ever did -- and doing it in the name of "freedom of choice" and the "betterment" of minority populations."

On their Web site, they claim that "for more than 90 years, Planned Parenthood has promoted a commonsense approach to women's health and well-being." Oh, really? Sanger was still passionately pushing her "extermination plan" in 1941, which was 67 years ago.

Next week, starting on Sep. 24, 2008, 40 Days for Life will begin its 24-hour presence outside abortion clinics across the country. During the 40 days, pro-life organizations, including many students and young adults, stand peacefully outside numerous Planned Parenthoods and other abortion clinics. Some people use the time to pray; others walk up and down the sidewalk. According to the campaign's Web site, last year, because of the 35,000 people who participated nationally, more than 500 mothers chose to keep their babies, abortion workers quit their jobs and clinics closed down and ceased performing abortions.

Planned Parenthood must be stopped. The racist intentions of this organization continue to leave an ugly scar on American society.

And leftists like Obama SUPPORT this.

There are multiple reports that PP gives out birth control pills at the smallest possible dosage (that can be called “the pill”).

Those “pills” have far more than the usual 2% failure rate.

Guess what service they gladly provide after that “failure”.

And I’ve heard that PP is supposed to report suspected sexual abuse but doesn’t do so. Somebody called them and pretended to have a pregnant 14 year old girlfriend, and they were told that all abortion services were completely confidential.

It’s one thing to have confidential matters for adult women, but a 14 year old girl being pregnant suggests that someone violated the age of consent laws.

Abortion: Black genocide - By Jessie Lee Peterson http://www.worldnetdaily.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=56202

The alarming numbers on abortion:

Since 1973, when abortion became legal there have been more than 14 million black babies killed in the black woman’s womb;
Since 1973, more than twice as many blacks have died from abortion than from heart disease, cancer, accidents, violent crimes and AIDS combined;
More than 1, 450 black children are aborted each day in the United States.

Wanna guess what PPI and the WHO determined was the cheapest form of birth control to promote in the 3rd world?
Hint#1: It’s the same reason the AIDS rate is so high in the 3rd world.
Hint #2: Sin against nature.

White liberal women let it slip every time abortion is discussed . They want abortion readily available not for themselves or their daughters , but as anti-crime social engineering . It ain't easy to listen to them for that long , so I recommend pouring white wine or Hennessy down their necks . Seems to tame them some .

But.... they will simply bestow the title “open minded” on themselves and move on.

The most close minded people I ever met were those talking about open mindedness and expanding their horizons. The biggest racist bigots I ever met were those talking about the oppressed in America. The worst sexists I ever met were feminists. And the most self hating, oppressive of free speech and religion, not caring a rats ass about their fellow man, the ones with a true contempt in the idea of self determination were those talking about “the children” while preaching socialism.

People like Sanger are the complete opposite of what they are made out as. These people are reinvented in history. They are not about freedom, respect, they don’t value life, or a woman’s health for that matter. They are not noble, moral, or fighting for some right, they are simply like all other hedonists that subscribe to socialism: Godless, self hating, not believing in self determination or freedom and on an eternal quest for physical self gratification in complete disregard of all consequences. But no worries, the obvious racist innuendo’s of the likes of Sanger are buried quickly because the heathens and saveges out there will simply reinvent her.

Planned Barrenhood (without the assistance of any other American abortuaries) kills more Americans EVERY TEN DAYS than have died in the war on terror (and that includes the deaths of 9/11/01).

How much longer will it be until the liberals finish aborting themselves out of existence?

"In Sanger's autobiography, she wrote, "The eugenists wanted to shift the birth control emphasis from less children for the poor to more children for the rich."

No matter her intentions (and certainly not that I agree with them), the irony is, the exact opposite occurred.

I understand your point, but again, the fact is, with the advent of the Great Society and the Welfare state, Sanger's plan failed and royally. The growth of an amoral underclass, many of whom are considered minority, as well as the declining birth rate among the more educated and affluent, proves it.

Barrack Obama is doing the bidding of Planned Parenthood and Margaret Sanger.

However, Margaret Sanger would turn over in her grave to know that a 'negro' was running for president. She had a plan for eliminating Catholics, Indians (American natives), and negroes.

She even had something called the Harlem Project to target some 'negroes'.

Of course, in the time of Margaret Sanger, she had a vision of using black ministers (Jesse Jackson, Sr. for example) to help decimate blacks via abortion.

African Americans have a much higher percentage of abortions than other groups, and it is clear that the African American community in America would have more clout if they had not about 40% of the babies since 1973...

Incidentally, Obama is a big fan of Planned Parenthood and enjoys 100% support of that organization... Wouldn't both Margaret Sanger and Adolf Hitler be proud... An African American helping to wipe out African Americans by promoting abortions to the extreme...

So why are 98% of blacks willing to put up with the disproportional murder rate of blacks by abortionists? I am left to conclude that blacks don’t like themselves.
