I didn’t know we even did that!

Hopefully..they’ll now go out of business.

Isn't ironic that the number one provider of abortion, has parenthood in the name of the organization?

Planned Non-Parenthood would be much more appropriate.

I don't believe that Planned Parenthood does abortions. They can recommend medical facilities in the area that do.

[GRANDPA]

Planned Parenthood performed 392,715 abortions in 2021-2022, the largest single provider of abortions in the United States, according to their own 2023 annual report.

You are such a dipwad.

They are the kings of abortion.

That’s what they do.

As usual you provide nothing to back your dipwad statements. Yes, they do some abortions.
Q: How much of Planned Parenthood’s services are dedicated to abortions? Does the federal government fund those procedures?

A: Abortions represent 3 percent of total services provided by Planned Parenthood, and roughly 10 percent of its clients received an abortion. The group does receive federal funding, but the money cannot be used for abortions by law.

FULL ANSWER
We received several questions on this topic during the recent budget debate in Congress, after Arizona Sen. Jon Kyl claimed this month on the Senate floor that "well over 90 percent of what Planned Parenthood does" is provide abortion services. That figure was wildly incorrect. Planned Parenthood says only 3 percent of its total services in 2009 were abortions. The other 97 percent of services were for contraception, treatment and tests for sexually transmitted diseases, cancer screenings, and other women’s health services.

If you don't understand how that shell game works, there is no hope for you.

Isn't it ironic that they call the mass murder of babies health care?

All they need is a few dipwads to dupe.

They do abortions..that’s what they do.

There's 2 ways to have an abortion provided by Planned Parenthood. Visit a clinic for a procedure. Or obtain an abortion pill

As usual you are wrong. But, you seldom if ever post the source of your brain farts and slanted opinions. So, here's what happening. https://www.dailysignal.com/2025/03/25/ ... arenthood/

Planned Parenthood performed 392,715 abortions[2] in 2021-22 – an increase of over 18,000 (5%) from the previous year, and an increase of 20%[3] over the past 10 reports.

..and both are done at Planned Parenthood.

Did you miss the part where Sangersteve post that Planned Parenthood peformed 392,715 abortions in 2021 and 2022 alone?

Yeah, and I have a pretty good idea how they came up with those numbers: The entire abortion process counts as one. "Got up, got out of bed, dragged a comb across my head" counts as three.

I guess if you think that zygotes are babies you may have a valid point.

Well, they damn sure aren't going to be Buick Rivieras, are they.

It's just a waste of time to argue with anti abortion fanatics. They live in the stone age.
