That's what caught my eye, too.

I know you two arent opposed to the action this lawsuit carried. It is how it was carried out, and by who. Now abortionists who have this suit thrown in their face when they are counseling a patient will be able to tell the little girl "Yes, but the plaintiff never had cancer, so...".

It would have been better if it had been brought by one of the people who had been through a trial or test by the NCI, one who had an abortion and cancer.

The more information the better.

Exactly.

It will be interesting to see how abortion providers react to this. IOW - abortion providers will now have to perform a kind of information-vs-profit analysis. If they tell the truth, they lose business. If they withhold the truth, they face a lawsuit.

Just wait 'til some tiny 12 year old whose parents were scared out of getting her an abortion by these nuts, dies from pregnancy/childbirth complications, or permanently loses her fertility due the trauma on her underdeveloped body from carrying a baby to term. Then we'll see the "ABC" crowd on the other side of some huge lawsuits.

hormonal birth control

What type of tumor was it? Estrogen or hormonal?

Don't hold your breath waiting for these "ABC" cheerleaders to grasp the difference between correlation and causation. Won't happen. You'll just turn blue.

Same problems back in the days of the innoculation threads. The difference is the ABC guys at least have a good cause (the ending of discretionary abortions) at their root, the innoculation guys were just luddites and freaks.

"I want to know who I can sue"

They know, they just don't want to admit it. Thus, I plan to make sure to use it when referring to their statements so that it's in their face every time.

I don't think they'll get smart, they are fat and lazy because they live of the government and their supporters in powerful institutions.

It was strawberry jam.

Money quote:

Tests on "simply 100 percent" strawberry jam revealed that the spread contained less than 30 percent actual strawberries and the blueberry version contained just 43 percent berries, the lawsuit said.

The premium jam also contains fruit syrup, lemon juice concentrate, fruit pectin, red grape juice concentrate and natural flavors, according to the J.M. Smucker Co. Web site.

Lame tactic. Attack the people instead of the the problem. Show proof of CAUSE not just correlation. That means something that shows HOW and WHY abortion leads to breast cancer and that other lifestyle factors aren't playing into it.

I'm not living off the government or a powerful institution. I work for a software company that happens to be run by morons doing everything in their power to put us out of business inspite of having the market leader in a tasty sector of telecommunications. I'd like to see abortion become a thing of the past, I don't think it's an activity healthy societies participate in. But I know logic and I know the studies you've linked to don't prove what you want them to prove what you want them to prove. The best they've done is shown a correlation which is completely meaningly in both legal and medical terms.

Unfortunately, a teen cannot and refuses to see much beyond a weeks worth of future. The fact that she may get breast cancer in the future will not affect the decision of most teens on abortion. The parents of the teen MAY be in a better position to help with input into that decision but planned parenthood is doing its level best to make sure they never find out.

Well, the chancellor troll has arrived to spew more death-camp propaganda.

I thought it was a raspberry beret, the kind you find at a second-hand store...
