Planned Parenthood and the tweet that maybe shouldn't have been [W: #109]

heh, if you look at it that way, it's kind of funny.

Or people are over-sensitive.

But it really didnt even register with me. It's a pretty common expression.

Tempest in a teapot IMO.

Her comment was stupid considering the organizations recent troubles. It's also just something she should avoid in general since PP has been known to cut off limbs and of course they make sure plenty of unborn children never get to the point in their life when they crawl.

LOL If you believe in such drama, no wonder you read so much into the comment. And yes....lots of pro-life people are all about the drama, since there is little fact or law to support them.

Everything I said I got straight from the comments of the tweet.

Oh and btw, the only fact they need is that it's human life and abortion providers are killing it. Just because you spend your time rationalizing killing doesn't mean your opponent needs anything more.

Yes I know. That's who I was referring too and their comments.

And just because they/you choose to place the unborn above women doesnt mean they/you are have any moral High Ground on the issue.

Treating all human beings equal isn't putting anyone above anyone else.

The fact that you're still telling this stupid lie despite being proven wrong over and over means you sure as **** don't have any kind of high ground.

There is no place to go in a discussion with a ideologue willfully ignorant and void of any compassion for differing points of view.

Changing the context of statements can change the entire meaning. Cleverly editing those statements to create a false picture is a cheap, desperate tactic and yet look how many Americans *still* choose to fall for such misinterpretation?
Click to expand...

No kidding. The entire interpretation of the videos (edited and unedited) by many in the prolife camp is just obscure.

But yeah. The videos are real. The fact that they were presented in a crazy edited form is just par for the course. They have to deceive to gain support. If they actually believed in the validity of their position, deception would not be such a usual tactic.

The problem is over the words limb and crawl that reference a body part and an infant behavior. Again, read the comments or even the one I provided you and it becomes crystal clear what people had a problem with.

The only people who are "trying" to make a big deal out of it are anti-choicers, and they're trying to attach some sort of grand faux pas signification. I say trying, because they're not succeeding. It fails on all fronts because it's a practice of laboring over dunghills.

If fussing over word choice is the best they have - we're in good shape.

Ignore the complaint of this individual case and look closer to what Planned Parenthood goes through quite regularly. One of their largest problems is that they are absolutely horrific when it comes to PR. They don't appear to have any understanding of good PR and instead spend their time either doing something stupid or saying something stupid and then being shocked when it comes back and shoots them in the face. Take the whole hacking cases a while ago for instance, instead of sitting back and letting law enforcement handle it they had to make sure they kept the door open for fault coming right back in their face by not appearing to have any control over the mouths of those people that represent them. When it was all said and done they somehow managed to take something that they could have been seen widely as a victim to into something where they appeared to be lying about the whole thing. This issue here is just more of the same where the person representing PP pays no mind to what they do as organization and plays loose with words they if she put any thought into she would know not to tweet.

Recent troubles caused by people trying to falsely portray them and the idiots that propagated the false narrative?

Those troubles?

Ah yes, how silly of us. It's not the abortions Planned Parenthood performs that pro-lifers take issue with, it's their PR. One could take PR lessons from the pro-life side, but those lessons would result in terrorism, so it's probably best that they don't.

It's both. You can't perform abortions and then in public act like what you do is not controversial or constantly do stupid **** that makes you look subhuman.

It's only controversial to those who don't understand science and those who can't mind their own beeswax.

It's a fact that the majority of abortions kill human life. What other science do you think I need? Let me guess, developmental arguments that you believe put no value on the unborn. Yeah, go ahead and tell me your value judgement is based on science and not opinion. :lol:

That's whatcha call an unfortunate choice of words given the year PP has had.

Being objective I think its a very true statement about "SOME" people especially the extremists as she identified. So many of them tried endless lies, dishonestly edited videos and tried to pass bills falsely claiming they were based on womans health that its near impossible to ever take those extremist even sightly serious every again on the topic. When some people are that blatantly dishonest they dont recover easy if at all.

They're not required to hold your point of view, and seeing as it's one side making the threats, committing arson and carrying out mass shootings, I'm glad they don't. All the violence has come from one side exclusively, and you're angry that Planned Parenthood didn't remember to keep one pinky out while drinking their tea.

Everyone has their reason for rationalizing terrorism, Henrin, and you've found yours. All terrorists think they're freedom fighters.

So you have your justification for the murder of innocent people then. If what you said sounds like every terrorist sympathizer who's ever lived, it's not a coincidence.

Innocent? How are they innocent? How many deaths do you think an abortion provider piles up over their career?

good thing that has nothing to do with PP or doctors who perform abortions. Its almost like you think honest educated and objective people buy that nonsensical lie and reframe. There reality is nobody in that category would ever take it seriously only laugh at its dishonesty.
