".....Note the astonishing admission Gatter makes mid-conversation:
Let me explain to you a little bit of a problem, which may not be a big problem. If our usual technique is suction, at 10 to 12 weeks, and we switch to using an IPAS [manual vacuum aspirator] or something with less suction, in order to increase the odds that it will come out as an intact specimen, then we’re kind of violating the protocol that says to the patient, “We’re not doing anything different in our care for you.” Now, to me, that’s kind of a specious little argument, and I wouldn’t object to asking Ian — who’s our surgeon who does the cases — to use an IPAS at that gestational stage, in order to increase the odds that he’s going to get an intact specimen.
Since, according to federal law (and several state codes), “no alteration of the timing, method, or procedures used to terminate the pregnancy [may be] made solely for the purposes of obtaining the tissue,” this would seem something more than “a little bit of a problem.” Not to mention that Planned Parenthood’s shtick about putting women’s health first would seem to be undermined by the organization’s lying to them for its own material gain. Then again, is it any shocker that an organization happy to hawk baby livers is willing to go wobbly on its contract obligations? Of course not. Whatever other good work Planned Parenthood may do — pap tests, HPV vaccinations, urinary-tract infection treatments, etc. — the moral rot at its core has become inarguable.
And that rot, which any morally sensate person must by now recognize, looks particularly galling when one remembers that Planned Parenthood’s billion-dollar business is funded, primarily, by taxpayers. As of June 30, 2014, when Planned Parenthood released its 2013–14 Annual Report, the organization boasted $1.4 billion in net assets and $1.3 billion in total revenue. “Government Health Services Grants & Reimbursements” constituted $528.4 million, 41 percent, of its revenue stream — the single largest portion."..............
"Black lives matter? Apparently not in New York City.
A “Pregnancy Outcomes” report from the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene reveals in 2013, more black babies were aborted than born in the city.
A chart on page 7 shows 24,108 “non-Hispanic black” babies were born while 29,007 faced “induced terminations” — or abortions............."
