"Prenatal care. These are the kinds of services folks depend on Planned Parenthood for.”
- Planned Parenthood CEO Cecile Richards
Planned Parenthood is spending millions of dollars in advertising right now, saying they support “choices” for pregnant women, but nothing could be further from the truth…
Despite Planned Parenthood’s claims, Live Action’s investigative team found that prenatal care is virtually non-existent for mothers who actually want to keep their babies. We documented it in our NEW investigative video, which you can see HERE:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ekgiScr364Y
Our investigators contacted all 41 Planned Parenthood affiliates in the United States, reaching out to 97 facilities, and discovered only FIVE offered any sort of prenatal care at all.
By turning away pregnant women for prenatal care, it’s obvious Planned Parenthood has one priority - and supports only one option - for most women: abortion.
But that doesn’t stop Planned Parenthood from lying to the public about its prenatal services. In fact, this is all part of Planned Parenthood’s strategy to protect its $550 million in taxpayer funding -- by downplaying the 887 preborn children they dismember, poison, and starve to death every day.
With the fight to defund Planned Parenthood in full force in Congress, we need to act quickly and share this information with more Americans so that, they too, know the truth: Planned Parenthood is not a “health care provider,” they are an abortion corporation.

And for your friends who aren’t on Facebook, email them this link.
In the following weeks, Live Action will be releasing more videos exposing Planned Parenthood's relentless focus on abortion and the lack of authentic health care. Live Action’s groundbreaking investigative report will shatter the narrative and the myths Planned Parenthood so desperately want the American people to believe.
Now is the time to deal a crippling blow to the abortion giant - the lives of preborn children are depending on us. Together, we can put an end to Planned Parenthood’s lies and the state-sponsored killing of children.

Their ONLY business, is abortion.
That's not what their spokesperson says:
AMY GOODMAN: You know, in the United States—I was listening to CNN and one of the critics of Planned Parenthood, when someone said, at least in the United States, what—abortion services that are provided in the country are something like 3 percent of the services that Planned Parenthood provides at the clinics?
DAWN LAGUENS: Planned Parenthood provides a full range of reproductive health services. About 97 percent of those services are preventive health services.
AMY GOODMAN: So, he asked, "So, why do they bother providing abortion?"
DAWN LAGUENS: Well, abortion is part of the full range of women’s healthcare. And it’s a legal right. [...]

The fact that I declined your challenge doesn't prove otherwise.

Yes, PP claims to do all kinds of good in the world.
There's a story coming up in which Shkrelli tells us how much good he has done, as well. Did you expect PP to tell you how corrupt they are? Did you expect Shkrelli to tell you how evil he is? Do you expect Bush or Cheney, even now, to tell everyone how evil they are? Do you expect Hillary or Bill to tell us how dirty and how bloody all of their money is?
Abortion is the number one killed of children in the United States.

> Did you expect PP to tell you how corrupt they are?
You had written: "Their ONLY business, is abortion." Their spokesperson contradicts that. You may of course choose not to believe her. However, Live Action, the anti-abortion group you've quoted in this journal contradicts your comment. You quote Live Action as saying:
Our investigators contacted all 41 Planned Parenthood affiliates in the United States, reaching out to 97 facilities, and discovered only FIVE offered any sort of prenatal care at all.
They're saying that PP offers prenatal care, by which I'm assuming they mean something other than abortion.
Did you expect Shkrelli to tell you how evil he is? Do you expect Bush or Cheney, even now, to tell everyone how evil they are? Do you expect Hillary or Bill to tell us how dirty and how bloody all of their money is?
Mr. Shkrelli has been charged with securities fraud; Messrs. Bush and Cheney have been indicted for war crimes; the Clintons' dealings have been investigated. I see political motivation in the proceedings against all those people. Another thing they have in common is that none of them have been convicted of wrongdoing. We may of course form our own, perhaps unflattering, opinions of them. It appears to me that your opinion of PP is largely based upon a distaste for abortion, rather than on solid indications of wrongdoing. The political motivation is there, but I hesitate to equate Live Action with such august bodies as the FBI and the Malaysian War Crimes Tribunal. As alluded to by another commenter, in a previous video they released, "parts of the conversation were strategically omitted" (quoted from the page linked below) in a way that tends to put PP in an unfavourable light.

There are only half a billion indications of wrongdoing on the part of Planned Parenthood.
Let's try this scenario on. You're a kindly, and wealthy old coot. I'm a businessman in the same town. I convince you that I'm somewhat needy, and that you could really help me, and my business. You indicate that you might help me with a loan, or with a grant, with the stipulation that I don't use your money to do certain things. Alright - you're a little eccentric, and you don't like automobiles. You sipulate that I can't fix cars with your money. BUT - my business is auto repair.
How am I going to convince you that I'm not using your money to repair cars?
That is where Planned Parenthood is at. Their BUSINESS is abortion, but they are taking half a billion dollars from Uncle, who has stipulated that his money may not be used for abortions.
A lot of people are being willfully ignorant here . . . .
Abortion is the number one killed of children in the United States.
