Anti-Choice Nutbags are going apeshit over misleading video about PP selling baby parts...

Here's a link to the doctored, edited video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=64&v=jjxwVuozMnU

It claims that Planned Parenthood is selling, for a profit, body parts of aborted fetuses. This claim is an obvious lie.

In fact, if you look at the unedited 3 hour video, they talk about getting reimbursed for the cost of donating organs and tissues to research facilities.



Here's an article about the misleading nature of the video.

I really, really fucking hate these backwards, good for nothing, so called "Pro-lifers". They are fucking scum who will tell all lies they can to try to make women's lives more difficult. They also seem to neglect the fact that this is done in accordance with the patient's wishes. No different than if you were to donate a loved one to science or medical reasons after they die. I don't doubt that medical facilities have nice spreadsheets with costs listed and how things are reimbursed on those as well. It seems callous and cold, sure, but also necessary.

about her church and it's theft of 300,000 babies from the opponents of the fascist Franco regime.

"Pro-Life" is such a bullshit term.

and all the profits they make feeding fear and loathing to the anti-choice crowd would be gone. The anti-choice people are the only ones making $$ off this crap.
