The Storm’s WNBA game against the Chicago Sky on Tuesday night featured an ownership-led initiative in support of the nonprofit that provides reproductive health care. This marks the first time a sports franchise has partnered with Planned Parenthood, according to a spokesperson from the organization.

In addition to an online auction, the Storm pledged to give $5 from each ticket sold to Planned Parenthood of the Great Northwest and the Hawaiian Islands (PPGNHI). The announced attendance Tuesday was 8,358, which equates to about a $42,000 donation from ticket sales.

Absolutley disgusting. Complete left-wing garbel. PP makes enough money out of taxpayers dollars. Please Trump, take away funding from PP and put it into the solar panel wall. A celebration for whom? Not for those unborn!

Stand with Planned Parenthood? What a joke!

I think I would have rather been aborted than go to a WNBA game.

This is just more liberals crapping on sports by injecting politics

Oh, Lesbian{s}

That really does not clarify anything, I am not a grammar or spelling Nazi.

Absolutely appropriate. Complete center of America and opposed to right wing garble.

So, out of curiosity...what do unborn people generally celebrate, and what does that look like? Serious question, as I'm a little freaked out with where my imagination is taking me, please clarify ASAP. Thank you.

Happy to be alive....aren't you?

lol..depends on the day.

Come on, WCH, you know I'm gonna ask you to prove that unborn people are "happy to be alive". This is DB. You can't just drop stuff like that and expect people who spend their free time debating politics to go along with that.

Since they can't communicate yet, I'll speak for them.

Someone needs to.

Was going to go off about scientific proof and whatnot, but on second thought, I understand where you're coming from and why (if your sig is any indicator) and I don't feel like getting into this debate today. Primarily that's because I struggle with it, honestly, myself, as I understand why it is important (from my perspective) to support freedom of choice, but would never want to be faced with the decision myself...it's one of the few things in my general ideologies that I support but don't feel good about. That said, I know that "right", "what I think is right", and "what is right for me" are not always the same thing.

I think PP is an important service, though...it's too bad anti-abortion folks want to throw the good out with the bad. I know it comes down to "I don't wanna pay for...bla bla bla", but the reality is that the sex education and contraceptive options provided by PP reduce abortions. The all-or-nothing-ness we face in the world today ensures we keep shooting ourselves in the foot.

They are in the WNBA, so therefore they are lesbians.

I think that is what he's saying.
 
Re: Seattle Storm holds pregame rally supporting Planned Parenthood, amid mild protes

Absolutley disgusting.

What's absolutely disgusting, is the fact that you think rape vicitms deserve it.

All athletic women are lesbians....right?
 
Re: Seattle Storm holds pregame rally supporting Planned Parenthood, amid mild protes

Since they can't communicate yet,
NOT EVEN AS WELL AS MANY ORDINARY ANIMALS, it proves they are mere animals, not persons. It is a Stupid Lie to say anything about them that implies that unborn humans (including hydatidiform moles) qualify as people.

I'll speak for them.
WHY? Just like most other living things, like rats and spiders and mosquitoes and guinea worms and cockroaches, unborn humans have a Natural Biological Drive to survive. Nothing more need be said "for them". ABOUT them, however, it can also be said that unborn humans provably act worse than parasites, and that they have no more of a "right to actually survive" than rats or spiders or mosquitoes or guinea worms or cockroaches, regardless of whether the unborn humans in question are hydatidiform moles or fetuses. It is quite Natural for at least 2/3 of all human conceptions to die before birth!

Someone needs to.
PROVE IT. No one needs to blather Stupid Lies about unborn humans!

If PPH stopped providing abortions then everything would be fine in most people's mind. IMO my tax dollars shouldn't be used for ending lives.

Trouble is, that's a sticking point because of profits on their end.
