...or so Planned Parenthood tries to tell you. Hey, there's a consensus on that, and after all, there's $350 million/year in government money to be made in the abortion game!
You decide...the video below was made undercover by Live Action, a UCLA student group.
Lila Rose, the 21-year-old UCLA student and Live Action president, says medical lies and manipulative counseling are routine at Planned Parenthood, the nation's largest abortion chain."
They will do or say anything in order to sell more abortions to more women, whether it is covering up sexual abuse or lying to women about medical facts," says Rose. "Our team has visited dozens of Planned Parenthood clinics undercover. Planned Parenthood, while claiming to support patient self-determination, operates with an 'abortion-first mentality.'"
The video is the first in Live Action's "Rosa Acuna Project," a multi-state undercover audit documenting Planned Parenthood's abortion counseling.
Take a look:
In the undercover video, when the two women ask a Planned Parenthood counselor if the pregnant woman's 10-week-old unborn child has a heartbeat, the counselor emphasizes "heart tones," and answers, "Heart beat is when the fetus is active in the uterus--can survive--which is about seventeen or eighteen weeks." On the contrary, embryologists agree that the heartbeat begins around 3 weeks. Wisconsin informed consent law requires that women receive medically accurate information before undergoing an abortion.
The counselor then says, "A fetus is what's in the uterus right now. That is not a baby." Dr. Prohaska, the abortion doctor, insists, "It's not a baby at this stage or anything like that." Prohaska also states that having an abortion will be "much safer than having a baby," warning, "You know, women die having babies."
The video comes one month after the widely reported resignation of Planned Parenthood clinic director Abby Johnson. Johnson left her leadership position at Planned Parenthood in Bryan, TX after watching a 13-week old fetus being aborted in her clinic on ultrasound. She said during a recent interview, "Planned Parenthood really tries to instill in their employees and the women that are coming in for abortions that this is not a baby." In another interview, she noted, "They don't want to talk about when your baby has a heartbeat," because "they don't want to give the woman information that could give her a connection with her baby."
Bravo to Miss Rose for her valiant effort here. And thank God for the younger generation, more cynical and tech-savvy then their teachers and parents, who seem driven to shine a light on the hypocrisy and abuses of the system.
May they thrive. And may Planned Parenthood be cut off from federal funding for this horrific deception...

That is powerful. It says a lot.
I wish that it was just Planned Parenthood that did such things. It's that mentality that causes so much trouble in the obstetric community for those of us who have had, or are dealing with, a high-risk pregnancy before the point of viability. More than one woman has been told, "Just terminate the pregnancy now..." instead of doing everything in their power to save the baby(ies).
