The Fake Abortion Clinics Of America: Misconception

VICE


(These fucking assholes need to be protested every day just like the fundies target Planned Parenthood)





Women across America who are seeking abortions are accidentally booking appointments at Crisis Pregnancy Centers — pro-life, government-funded religious centers that don't provide abortions, but instead try to talk women out of terminating their pregnancies. VICE News investigated the misleading practices used by Crisis Pregnancy Centers to draw in women with unplanned pregnancies, and the misinformation that is spread to discourage them from pursuing abortions.

We weren't ready for child at the time and I only had to deal with two old blue hair fundies in the parking lot who didn't like what I had to say

This was years and years ago, that place they showed next door wasn't there at that time. I'm seriously thinking about making a sign and protesting that place when I have time on Saturdays. Just one big sign saying

SHAM-
These Fundies Don't Provide Abortion Services

Commercials always feature some cheery voice saying, "We discuss all of the available options!"
