Disgusting bumper sticker
It is one of the first bumper stickers that I have ever seen that I wanted to rip off the car. It was so vile.

"Planned Parenthood???What's so planned about abortion?"
:mad:

1. I've heard of that one, it makes me sick!
They really don't get that Planned Parenthood does more than abortion and is very helpful in preventing abortion at times.

2. Lots!
See, you have to decide if you want to terminate the pregnancy first. Then you have to find a provider (hopefully your lucky enough to find one who operates in your state), then you have to go for an initial consultation, then you have to go back (depending on state law) 2 to 3 more times to get information and make sure you're certain, then you have to go back yet again to have the procedure performed. I mean, just arranging the transportation takes planning!

4. Uhhh
PP's purpose isn't to plan abortions or the need for them.
They provide free and low cost healthcare and education to MEN and women, as well as being purveyors of choice.

6. Sorry
My post was tongue-in-cheek, in case you couldn't tell. I realize that Planned Parenthood does much more than act as an abortion provider / referrer.

7. Sorry
The :sarcasm: smiley is effective for that...
Seems I have lost most of my sense of humor these days when talking about women's choices...and fear they will become a thing of the past in the near future.
My apologies...didn't mean to jump on you.:hug:

3. You can't let it get to you
Those anti-choice freaks are just crazy scum. Like they give a damn about babies after they're born.

10. Those make me sick
If these fundies have their way, the day will come when women will have to line up with their used tampons and pads so they can have burials for all of the little "choices" that didn't quite make it to fertilization.

11. I hug my choice every day. Do they think this offends me?
Of course she was a choice. I never considered not having her (not that it was my choice to make anyway) but nonetheless, it was a choice. I'm afraid I'm not quite connecting with the obvious attempt at an insult by these people. Didn't they choose NOT to take a coat hanger to their little stepford kids? Ok, then they're a choice.

12. My reply to that:
Yes; I hugged myself today. Did you?
(then I went and hugged my baby boy; who was the result of my 3rd unplanned pregnancy)
