Even Planned Parenthood Isn’t Proud of Abortion
So Planned Parenthood and the ACLU are making noise in Virginia because they have license plates there that people can get that say “Choose Life,” but they don’t have license plates that support abortion.
Planned Parenthood and the ACLU want license plates that say “Trust Women” and “Respect Choice.” Now both of these general statements I support. I trust that all the little women killed by the violence of abortion didn’t want to have their lives snuffed out and I respect the life choices that a preborn child would have taken away from them if they were aborted. What Planned Parenthood means by these terms is very different. What they really mean is:
Trust women to make the right decision whether to allow their child to be killed by abortion.
Planned Parenthood, even in their abortion advocacy, rarely uses the word “abortion” because even they are ashamed of it or know that the public would react strongly against them if they talked that way. Instead they use general words like trust, rights, choice, and freedom.
Opposing human abortion doesn’t mean that one doesn’t “trust women.” I support laws against the rape of women, does that mean that I don’t “trust men”? I also support laws against grandparents poisoning their grandchildren, so does that mean that I don’t “trust grandparents”? Of course not. Whether human abortion, or rape, or stealing should be allowed has nothing to do with trust and everything to do with what harm occurs as a result of those actions.
The second phrase “Respect Choice” is a cover for:
Respect the choice to kill a living human being by abortion.
There is generally universal respect for choosing life (although some opposing the Tim Tebow ad make me wonder). It is the choice to choose abortion that Planned Parenthood and the ACLU are trying to fight for. Choosing abortion is not generally respected in our country (even as abortion is legal), which is why it is done in such a private manner. The reason why that choice is not respected has nothing to do with animosity against the women choosing abortion and everything to do with what abortion action is — the ending of a human life.
Consider this: there is strong support for the choice to remove a tumor — that is a life-affirming choice. Nobody needs convincing to respect that act. Abortion is different for the simple fact that the result of an abortion is not life but death. I respect healthy choices that are positive, and being asked to respect a choice to kill another human being is something I will never do.
Interestingly enough, Planned Parenthood in their own way doesn’t respect the choice of a human abortion. If Planned Parenthood did respect that choice, they would:
- Proudly tout their growing number of annual abortions (now at over 300,000 a year in the United States) instead of playing it down
- Proudly use the word “abortion” instead of all their other slick slogans
- Proudly use the word “abortion” when advocating for taxpayer-funded abortion
- Say things like “abortion is great”
Rarely, though, does any of this happen. In fact, Planned Parenthood is assuring the public that funds raised from the sale of these proposed license plates will go to a “special account” used to cover nonabortion services. Why have a special account? Wouldn’t having a special account to keep money from going to hip replacements or hand surgeries be silly? All this shows that even the number one abortion provider, Planned Parenthood, knows that human abortion isn’t just another medical procedure.

Of course there not proud of it. They are supposed to be laying out all options on the table. Obviously they are pushing the abortion agenda under the veil of “Women’s Rights and Choices.” If they posted the talking points above, they would go out of business.
“Trust Women” is a stupid slogan. Having two X chromosomes doesn’t make you automatically trustworthy! Just because somebody is a woman doesn’t mean she won’t backstab you at work, key your car, shoplift, abuse her kids, cheat on her husband, drive drunk, etc.
The very existence of the practice of abortion is proof that some women can’t be trusted, and some choices don’t deserve respect. It’s ironic, to say the least, that the abortion movement would then pick “Trust Women” and “Respect Choice” as slogans.
Unfortunately, by also using the term “pro-choice,” pro-lifers in the media are aiding and abetting the pro-abortion groups in continuing the deception that being pro-abortion is not a bad thing. Let’s have some guts and be black and white: Pro-life is pro-life/anti-abortion. Pro-choice is anti-life/pro-abortion.
I am ashamed of this…. of course planned parenthood isn’t proud of abortions! I understand the ideals of pro-life but can we please be realistic…. I am pro-choice but that DOES NOT make me “pro-death” I personally would never choose an abortion but I would not dare tell someone who lives in a DEMOCRACY that they did not have the right to decide whether or not they should have to keep the fetus. I’m sorry but the last time I checked we have an over population problem, an oil crisis, millions of people starving while the richest countries in the world suffer from obesity and other diet related issues. welfare in this country is out of control and women CHOOSE to have babies not to bring life and love into this world but to get more cash from the TAX PAYERS. if all abortions were outlawed who is going to pay for all those children? what kind of lives are they going to be subjected to? unloved and neglected…. sounds to me the perfect recipe for a misunderstood criminal who will know no different. continuing on this thought what about the women who are going to get an abortion no matter what and end up killing themselves or contracting some disease from some dirty equipment. you cannot stop abortion, you create a blackmarket that is forced to be criminal and “backalley with a coat hanger”. I’m sorry but this is reality! as someone mentioned above… planned parenthood isn’t proud of abortions but they are trying to give women all options. obviously abortion should not be the “easy solution” but it is a fact of life. I just wish people would stop living in this fantasy world where good and evil are so “black and white” Lorraine is doesnt take guts to be “black and white” it takes a closed
mind… who is anyone to claim they KNOW what is good and evil…life is complex and you can never know any one womens circumstance and you better believe that the women who have chosen that route will think about it for the rest of their lives but that is THEIR choice. If you feel strongly against abortion then educate your sons and daughters and give them the life lessons and morals to be smart enough to make the right choice but stop trying to make decisions for EVERYBODY based on your own circumstance.
TL, you are using faulty logic to support a heinous practice. I recently downloaded Planned Parenthood’s income tax returns. Do you know how much money they pull in each year? It’s about 80 times the amount the National Right to Life Committee receives. With that kind of money at our disposal, those of us involved in helping the poor and disadvantaged could really make some major changes in the world. To use funds to help women kill their unborn children instead of to help get them into a better place in life where they might be able to keep their precious offspring is the real tragedy we’re facing. PP takes the “easy” way out. The hard work of making the world a better place takes much more effort.
Try opening your mind to a fresh perspective on choice. Ruminate on it for a day or so. If we all brainstorm together, I’ll bet we could eliminate the “need” for abortion altogether. It’s a terrifying choice to have to make. We all sympathize with the plight a woman faces with a crisis pregnancy. I do, especially, having experienced it firsthand. To give life is an honor, a privilege men don’t have. You can view it as such or, as many feminists do, as something that’s unfair. I think it’s an honor. Men can’t perpetuate the species without our wombs. Wow. Now that’s power!
“I personally would never choose an abortion”
– Why is that?
“of course planned parenthood isn’t proud of abortions! ”
– Planned Parenthood refuses to endorse the goal of lowering abortions and also says that choosing abortion is not worse than choosing life. They are caught because they know that abortion are life are not the same but they also don’t want to admit that publicly because if they admit life is better then they would need to take measures to encourage people to select life.
“who is anyone to claim they KNOW what is good and evil”
– So I guess you don’t have any authority to call a murderer or rapist wrong?
Your logic is very faulty.
Whether or not to have an abortion is a very personal and very private decision a woman makes. That is between the woman and her doctor.
It is nobody else’s business.
Keep abortion safe and legal. We will never go back to the coat hangers and the uterine infections that resulted from illegal, unsafe, and life-threatening back-alley abortions.
As long as there are unplanned and unwanted pregnancies, incest and rape, there will always be abortions.
Get over yourselves. The law on this is clear. Did you realized abortion was completely legal in our nation’s founding years? It was only made illegal when the newly created medical profession was trying to eliminate the midwives from the playing field.
KEEP ABORTION SAFE AND LEGAL.
Just when you thought veteran muckraker Kevin Sherlock hung up his radioactive laptop for good, he releases two books in 2010 on immigration that do nothing to soften his image. “Ellis Island Scrapbook” is kinder and gentler (relatively speaking) and “When America Did Immigration Right” is meaner and harsher. Both books cover the Ellis Island Era, when we actually had standards to keep out loafers, criminals, wage-depressing contract workers, illegals, criminals and moral degenerates, and those who hated American institutions and would not assimilate.
Both books are aggressively and cheerfully pro-American, both celebrate Judeo-Christian heritage, and both explain what it took to become an American in an era when the American people expected assimilation and frequently backed it up physically. The books argue the Ellis Island approach with updated techniques could make Americans much safer.
These books underwent subject expert scrutiny and passed with flying colors. These books have the endorsement of Congresswoman Michele Bachmann, Arizona sheriff Joe Arpaio, and talk show host Rusty Humphries. They also have the appreciation of Americans ranging from Minutemen and tea partiers who like his patriotism and attacks on the Nanny State to blacks who appreciate the spotlight Sherlock put on anti-black hatred (especially by feminists and progressives) and the accomplishments of American blacks, to Orthodox Jews and Eastern Orthodox Christians who appreciate how Sherlock attacked jihadists, Nazis, and Reds who murdered people of their blood. Sherlock is an immigration restriction advocate who celebrates Hispanic culture instead of slighting it; he is a Catholic and has some Spanish heritage.
“Ellis Island Scrapbook” covers abortion in Europe in the 1800s and 1900s, explains why abortionists feared execution, spotlights Nazi abortionists who attacked Slavic and Jewish women, and covers the impact of bisexual racist Margaret Sanger on immigration. (She railed against the poor, blacks, Catholics, Jews, American Indians, and Hispanics. She argued for forcibly sterilizing the poor.)
“When America Did Immigration Right” covers the relationship of “white slavery” and abortion in America, and also covers the impact of Margaret Sanger on immigration and the abortion trade. Sherlock discusses La Sanger like guys at a bar would, pointing out she was essentially a globetrotting bisexual whore who lied about her credentials as a nurse (she didn’t have a nurse’s license, setting an example for many Planned Parenthood staffers), she hated the poor, and she chased a series of Euros (males and females) ranging from starched English degenerates to Stalinist comrades who treated her like the easily available slut she was. He also covers the fight against “white slavery,” which actually targeted most girls, regardless of age or religion of parents.
Each book has 260 color and black & white pictures, and numerous maps. “Ellis Island Scrapbook” has more European history and vignettes; “When America Did Immigration Right” has more American history and an analysis of why the present day immigration can be called “Gilligan’s Island,” not “Ellis Island.”
Check out the Brennyman Books website for info on both books. Sherlock is at his teaching and conversational best. You will not be bored!
