New Planned Parenthood Video: Parents Didn’t Know Baby Organs Were Sold
brietbart ^ | 12 Aug 2015 | John Hayward

Posted on 08/12/2015 3:07:46 PM PDT by Morgana

The latest video from the Center for Medical Progress is not an undercover sting operation, but rather an interview with former blood and tissue procurement technician Holly O’Donnell, who worked for a biotech company called StemExpress.

StemExpress has been referenced in several previous videos as the primary customer for tissue and organs harvested from children aborted at Planned Parenthood clinics. In this video, O’Donnell alleges that such harvesting was often undertaken without the knowledge or consent of the pregnant women.

O’Donnell says that the pressure from her employers to procure valuable fetal tissue made her mission to harvest organs not an “option,” but a “demand.” She charges that techs working Planned Parenthood clinics didn’t always take the time to actually make that demand of the abortion mill’s clients: “If there was a higher gestation, and the technicians needed it, there were times when they would just take what they wanted. And these mothers don’t know. And there’s no way they would know.”

How many long prison time felonies has PP done so far that we know of from these videos, or investigations done because of them?

1. Selling organs for profit.
2. Selling organs without consent
3. 2nd term abortions
4. Partial birth abortion
5. Delivering and murdering live babies
6. Changing medical treatment of women for profit from organs

Is this the video the Federal court wanted to stop?

Well hopefully the “mothers” know now. The greatest damage might be the fact that a lot of pregnant women have seen and will see the videos and maybe, just maybe, they will have second thoughts.

Maybe. Or maybe, failing any moral compass whatsoever, they will think, “Well, since I had to have this abortion, now maybe some good will come from it”.

Do women who recently had late term abortions have any rights now to sue? To demand anything? I know that sounds horrible since these women decided to murder their babies, but some may have been coerced by doctors (amazing how hard the push is from medical personnel to abort children with disabilities) or men.

If someone on the inside at a particular clinic testifies that EVERY second trimester abortion was used for parts, does a woman who had that done to her baby have some standing to sue?

The whole thing is so goulish. Perhaps it will convince women to keep their babies at least to term. Adoption is a good thing.

Sorry I ran into news from today saying how wonderful stem cells were and cured polio so I had to look. Second link refutes necessity.

http://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show/cruz-accidentally-gives-away-the-game
As msnbc’s Emma Margolin reported yesterday, Cruz also intends to “prosecute” the health care organization over fetal-tissue research.

“For a century, Americans have helped heal and care for millions in need. Our values propelled extraordinary innovation. America made the world better,” states a narrator in the 30-second spot. “So how did America become a country that harvests organs from unborn children? And who has the courage to stop it?”

“Ted Cruz will prosecute and defund Planned Parenthood,” the narrator continues. “Help Cruz restore American values.”

https://www.lozierinstitute.org/history-of-fetal-tissue-research-and-transplants/
Vaccine development: Early attempts at growing viruses used cultures of mixed human fetal tissue, not individual cells, e.g., for growth of poliovirus, 1949.[18] Later, poliovirus was produced in human fetal cell lines (WI-38, 1961,[19] fetal female lung; MRC-5, 1966, [20]fetal male lung). Now most manufacturers of polio vaccine use other cell types including monkey cells, and most do not use fetal cells.

The first individual human cell (not tissue) grown in the lab was a tumor cell in 1951,[21] because the growth character of cancerous cells made them easiest to grow. In the 1960’s and 1970’s, cell culture work operated under an assumption that younger cells were better, grew faster, lived longer, so fetal cells obtained from abortion were used. These cells adapted to lab culture and continued to grow, becoming known as a “cell line” because they developed as a lineage from different, specific cells grown in the lab. A few human fetal cell lines (WI-38, MRC-5) are still in use for some vaccine production.[22] However, newer cell lines and better culture techniques make this reliance on fetal cells an antiquated science. In addition, the CDC and other leading medical authorities have noted that “No new fetal tissue is needed to produce cell lines to make these vaccines, now or in the future.”[23]

A clear example of the lack of necessity for further fetal tissue is development of the new vaccine — rVSV-ZEBOV — against Ebola virus. The successful results of the field trial, published July 31, 2015, were very welcome in the fight against this deadly disease.[24] This successful Ebola vaccine was not developed using fetal tissue or fetal cell lines, but rather with Vero, a monkey cell line, demonstrating again that medical science has moved beyond any need for fetal tissue in useful medical research.[25]

I suspect that some will not be happy. After all, some women might have expected the remains to be treated with respect versus dissected and pieces-parts sold for money.

“The women I worked for were… cold. They don’t care,” O’Donnell recalled. “They just wanted their money. They didn’t care that a girl was throwing up in the trash can, and crying… and even, there were times to when the patients would ask me, they would come in and be crying and say, ‘Should I do this? Should I be doing this?'”

Just thought this part needed to be highlighted.

I can’t imagine that any of the matricide mommies would give a rats butt, or arm or leg except that it were THEY who were not getting paid.

How long before pregnant women prolong their pregnancies to make the organs more valuable and demand payment for these valuable baby parts they are carrying around?

The word “parents” is surely thrown around by liberal nowadays for “people” who are anything but parental.

You forget they were told “it’s just a clump of cells” or “just a mass of tissue”. Now the cat is out of the bag. Now those women know. It’s over for PP.
