32 Planned Parenthood centers shut down in 2017

PARKER, Colorado — The empty retail space next to a Discount Liquors and Smoker Friendly used to house a Planned Parenthood, but no more.

The Planned Parenthood Express Clinic in Parker, Colorado, is one of the 32 Planned Parenthood centers that shut down this year, according to a study released this month by the pro-life American Life League.

Jim Sedlak, executive director of the American Life League, said there is “mounting evidence of Planned Parenthood’s decline” and “renewed optimism that the end of the organization may happen sooner than our most optimistic estimates just two years ago.”

“The evidence is clear: The American people are fed up with Planned Parenthood,” Mr. Sedlak said in a statement. “The revelations about its business model and its callous disregard for the lives of human beings are taking their toll on the organization’s acceptance.”

A spokesperson for Planned Parenthood could not be reached for comment before press time.

Executives at the giant abortion provider cite no single reason for the decline in facilities. Some point to the passage of the 2010 Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, which they say has resulted in more patients who are enrolled in Medicaid and fewer who pay out of pocket.

Businesses routinely close underperforming locations.

It is great, but this is just strategic business planning on their part.

“Winning for the unborn.”

If we can win on abortion, we might be able to turn the tide.

Turning the hearts of the fathers (and mothers) towards their children...

Yeah, That Parker, Co. location was small and probably not used very much. Many of the other front range locations are larger and are located in larger population centers.

It’s going out of business even with Roe vs. Wade. Imagine if we overturn it!

They spend millions upon millions in advertisings against pro-life politicians in order to keep their public funding rolling in.

Praise God.

And continued prayers lifted for Rep. Jim Jordan and the other true conservative Congressmen.

Two recent incidents that may serve as anecdotal evidence of their desperation:

- Leaving Trader Joe’s 3 weeks ago, noticed a white beta male and black female canvasing patrons for donations to PP. They must have sensed I wasn’t a good prospect, and looked away as I passed.

- Walking the streets of West Chester, PA 2 weekends ago, was asked by a young black female if I’d like to make a donation to PP.

Without stopping or looking at her, I replied “No, you can kill babies on your own.” My date said the collector’s expression was priceless.

Makes you wonder what they’re paying these people to collect money, and whether it’s even profitable.
