Planned Parenthood superhero terminates Christian protesters

Planned Parenthood superhero terminates Christian protesters. Also drowns promoter of abstinence in animated video pushing 'safe is sexy' message.

An online animated video sponsored by Planned Parenthood's San Francisco-area branch features a superhero character drowning an abstinence promoter in a trash can and blasting into oblivion several pro-life picketers protesting in front of one of the organization's facilities. The eight-minute "Superhero for Choice," posted on the Planned Parenthood Golden Gate website, has a bespectacled black woman in San Francisco morphing into a red-suited flying enforcer, bent on making the world safe for the organization's values.

Viewers see three teenagers talking with an ugly green-faced man sporting a top hat and bow tie who tries to tell the kids abstinence is the only sure way to protect against sexually transmitted diseases and unwanted pregnancy. The teen girl rebuts the man, naming several birth-control methods.

Retorts the little green man: "Those are instruments from the devil's toolbox!" The superhero arrives in time to fill a trash can with water and dump the pro-abstinence character into it, slamming the cover down. After the man's muffled voice eventually dies off, the superhero tosses the teens a "safe sex kit," reminding the kids: "Safe is sexy!"

The "Superhero for Choice," dubbed Dianisis, next confronts a group of protesters in front of a Planned Parenthood facility. They, too, are ugly and have green faces, carrying signs that say, "Pray for thy sins." Religious protesters get blasted. The superhero character uses a "condom gun" that catches each protester in a prophylactic bubble, which subsequently explodes. Though she admits the protesters have a First Amendment right to picket, she glories in the fact that people can now visit the Planned Parenthood facility unimpeded.

The flying superhero then travels to Washington, D.C., where she puts a giant condom on the Washington Monument and confronts a Southern senator who is stricken with "misinformed conservatism." The woman's final stop is a village in Africa, where she talks to a doctor working to stem HIV/AIDS and to make sure "every child is a wanted child." The superhero remarks before leaving: "I have an appointment with the Rev. Jerry Falwell – that schmuck."

Jim Sedlak, executive director of American Life League's STOPP International, decried the Planned Parenthood animated piece. "With its latest marketing gimmick … Planned Parenthood is glamorizing violence against people of faith," Sedlak said in a statement. "The hatred and religious bigotry demonstrated by Planned Parenthood in this video are shocking and offensive."

Sedlak says the video could encourage people to act out the violence shown. "In this post-9/11 era of terrorism, Planned Parenthood has recklessly crossed the line by promoting violence against people who do not share the organization's radical beliefs," said Sedlak. "Planned Parenthood's actions are reprehensible, because there is no guarantee that someone viewing this video might not act on its suggestions and instigate violence against people of faith." Commented blogger Dawn Eden: "Now, I ask you, if the American Life League's website featured a cartoon depicting an ALL superhero blowing up nonviolent Planned Parenthood activists, would Planned Parenthood just shrug it off?

"I think we all know what would happen. There would be an uproar." American Life League wants heads to roll over the video. Said Sedlak: "American Life League demands that Planned Parenthood publicly reveal the names of all persons involved in the development and posting of this outrageous material and immediately dismiss all individuals involved from their positions as employees or volunteers. We also demand that Planned Parenthood issue a public apology without delay to pro-life Christians everywhere for inciting violence against them." While Planned Parenthood refers countless women for abortions across the nation, the word "abortion" is not mentioned in the film. Planned Parenthood Golden Gate is a consortium of eight clinics in the San Francisco Bay Area. Repeated calls to the organization's administrative offices were not returned by press time.

'A Superhero for Choice' confronts abstinence promoter.

Religious protesters get blasted.

I try to be Christlike when it comes to these people, but I have to believe they're possessed. No way could they be this stupid... could they?

I hear the echo of this part of Romans nearly every time I'm confronted with a Leftist initiative. That Guy is a poster boy for the truth of it.

Rom 1:22: Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools

Rom 1:23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.

Rom 1:24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: Rom 1:25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.

I wonder why don't they just drop the pretense and hand out an iPod shuffle with every abortion

I've still got a live link to the cartoon on my blog.

There's tons of information about the model for Dianysis - the CEO of PPGG, who appears to have engaged what could appear to be a little stock manipulation and kickback scheme:

I've still got a live link to the cartoon on my blog.

Yes, I see the dude that did the soundtrack has the whole 40 MB downloadable file on his site. I bet this wont last too long either-his site traffic is probably going through the roof.

download it while you can.

download it while you can.

[UnbelievingScumOnTheOtherSide]

Yes, I got it.

There is a higher quality Quicktime version (84MB) if you go to his unprotected directory.

I'm trying to get Bill Bennett to pick up on it.
I've had good luck with getting emails on the air before.

But the talk shows MUST get this before his server is inundated! email email email!

[UnbelievingScumOnTheOtherSide]

When his site goes down, it needs to be plastered all over newsgroups and P2P.

Amazing these bozos in their echo chamber couldn't see a problem with it.
It shows they can only hate, not debate!

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

That's just unbelievable. I don't even know where to begin to tear that piece of drivel apart as there's so much messed up about it.

Let me tell you a little something about Planned Parenthood, I HATE THEM!!! They ruined my life, at least the one on Mott in NY did. I was taken to the one in Smithtown Long Island, I was 9 weeks pregnant, I wanted the child, he didn't, the woman at Smithtown was kind to me, and listened as I told her my story. She stood by my side and told me not to have the abortion done, that I was NOT a candidate and that no reputable place would touch me with a ten foot pole. That was Wed. April 22,2003. On Sat. April 25,2003 he took me to another Planned Parenthood, the one on Mott. We had agreed that if they wouldn't do it then the baby would come. I went into the back, sure I would come out pregnant, but came out empty. There are things that led me to going to that second Planned Parenthood that I don't choose to discuss on this board, but I did talk freely about to the "counselor". She was all for me having the abortion, even though I told her I wanted my baby. She just kept pounding me, and pounding me, making me feel like I had to do this, because what kind of life would my child have with a father like that, why would I want to damn my child to such a life. It made no difference to her that I wanted my baby, she just cared that he didn't. I remember my feet being put into he stirrups, crying, the doctor asking me if I wanted to go through with this, me saying no, that I wanted my baby but that I was being forced against my will to do it. He looked at me told me to stop crying and proceeded to put me to sleep. When I awoke I was screaming for my baby, begging God to please let me find out that it hadn't really happened. My blood pressure was 170/130, the people were panicking, and I was dead inside. I chose to cut my self on occasion's were the pain was too much to bare. I went to group therapy, but still the nightmares continue. My daughter will never know what it is to be held, I will never hear her laugh, see her smile. My life is broken and empty in so many ways. Planned Parenthood can make all the jokes it wants, but in my eyes they, at least on Mott Street, are the devil. I became pregnant again 4 months after the termination and now have a beautiful 14 month old son, but my heart still aches for my lost child. Planned Parenthood may never know the damage they caused to my life.

[UnbelievingScumOnTheOtherSide]

On the other hand, maybe nobody cares and they'll never be brought to account?

[Zechariah_8_13]

I'm so sorry to hear about your experiences. May God give you comfort, and please know that there IS healing through Jesus.

Welcome to FR. Enjoy your stay.

LOL! Somehow I doubt the Venture brothers would be much help here!

Good point although I think Brock Samson alone could take care of her with one hand, or knife, behind his back. B-)

Seriously though, I heard some clips of this on Savage's show, and I was speechless. I cannot even imagine the perverted brainstorming sessions the writers had when creating this tripe. They should all be ashamed of themselves...yeah, right.

Yeah, I think seriously, the crux of the matter is that we lost a lot of the idea of shame in our society. Yes, there are times that we need to quit the use of shame if the offender and/or the person who has made a mistake shows the willingness to repent, redeem, change, or whatever you want to term it and live the good life, but there were times that you didn't make things like this cartoon in polite society. Sure, you might have had things like this in the past but they were very, very underground and you had to know somebody who knew somebody and so on to see it. At one time, if something like this broke out into the main eye of the public, that's when the shame and condemnation came out and it stopped this stuff in its tracks.

I guess that's why I admire the Victorian and 1950's era so much, yes, people can and were just as bad then but at least polite society at large had spoken and unspoken rules of what was good behaviour and in many cases, it discouraged a lot of that, imperfect as the system was. I'm not for turning the clock back on things like technology and civil rights but in the way people treated each other with respect and civility I'd be all for it.
