4. For the same reason women's health clinics are called "abortion clinics."

Abortions accounted for 3 percent of the nearly 10.6 million total services provided by Planned Parenthood clinics in 2013, according to its annual report.

Some services it provided in addition to abortions were:

4.5 million tests and treatment for sexually transmitted infections
3.6 million contraception related services
935,573 cancer screenings including breast exams and Pap tests
1.1 million pregnancy tests and prenatal services


Never mind that women's health clinics are staffed with doctors and nurses who provide health care in detecting cancer and other women's health issues, family planning aimed at preventing unwanted pregnancies, and prenatal care for those who have planned a pregnancy and want a healthy outcome - for some troglodytes crawling the Earth, women have been reduced to mere baby factories ripe for abortion at any moment. Ugh.
