Since ILA censors opposing points of view, it's important to set the facts out correctly. Figures at bottom.

Can anyone tell us why the right wing has such concern when it comes to abortion? They would not want to take care of the children born in poverty, nor would they support the mother through the very arduous birth process. What they do is what all moralists do, preach and act holier than thou. Help or act as a Christian is beyond them.


"Abolition of a woman's right to abortion, when and if she wants it, amounts to compulsory maternity: a form of rape by the State." Edward Abbey

Abortion is the hypocrite's crutch, it requires nothing of the moralist, especially the male moralist - living, the child would get no support from them. It is an empty abstraction, a phony control over another person, they cry crocodile tears but do nothing substantive for living people. Bring all these children into the world and see how fast the hypocrites rise up and raise them and support them? Every few seconds a living, breathing conscious child dies in the world of preventable causes, and the moralists do not protest those deaths, in fact they hate the UN, an organization that tries to help these children. Did any of the so called pro-life people protest the bombing and killings in Iraq? Heck no, they are simply hypocrites.

Say what you like, pro life people care not for the living child, ironic huh. Life is a powerful force you needn't worry about it, in the end it is the pro-choice who are pro-life, you are simply pro-controlling another person's life. Manage your own life and keep out of other people's lives, this is still a free country in spite of religion based hypocritical politics. Judge yourself.

"In the 1950s, about a million illegal abortions a year were performed in the U.S., and over a thousand women died each year as a result. Women who were victims of botched or unsanitary abortions came in desperation to hospital emergency wards, where some died of widespread abdominal infections. Many women who recovered from such infections found themselves sterile or chronically and painfully ill. The enormous emotional stress often lasted a long time." HISTORY OF ABORTION

==================================

"Planned Parenthood Receives 15% Of Its Annual Revenue From Abortion Services. According to data from the most recent Planned Parenthood Annual Report:

Abortion accounted for 3 percent of total services (approximately 328,308 of 10,943,609 services)

At an average cost of $500, total revenue from abortion services was approximately $164,154,000

Revenue from abortion services was less than 15 percent of the total annual revenue, which was $1,100,800,000" [Planned Parenthood Annual Report 2008-2009, accessed 2/17/11]

I see you don't dispute my numbers. Thank you for that

You will notice that I pointed out the difference between OPERATING revenue and TOTAL revenue. Of course I understand the need for some to make it seem like Planned Parenthood doesn't make a boatload of money on abortions. They must keep up appearances after all.

That is why they throw out the lame argument about only 3% of their "services" being abortions. It is designed to confuse the gullible

PS this thread is proof that I have ZERO power to censor anyone.

Using your loose definition of censorship you must be saying that any newspaper that doesn't publish a letter to the editor is practicing censorship
 
here is the 2014-15 annual report.....no breakdown is given for revenue from abortion services.....
it mentions 43% for government health services grants and reimbursements (which in many states could include funding for abortions), 24% for non government health services revenue which obviously could include abortion revenue and 27% for private contributions and bequests which may include contributions to fund abortions.....

it also shows 64% of its expenses are for medical services.......
