Support PlannedParenthood,You Are Simply Not a Decent Person

This just showed up on my FB feed

The latest Planned Parenthood video is out. This time, it’s revealed that living babies with beating hearts are being sold and dissected.

One might think this is big news. One might think this is the biggest news going on right now. One might think the whole country should stop in its tracks and focus intently on this story. One might think that any decent human being would be overcome by a bitter, violent, passionate anger at these Planned Parenthood revelations. One might think we’d all be moved to do something. Do something, damn it. Do something.

But one is clearly not familiar with how this country works. Indeed, the first couple of Planned Parenthood videos garnered some interest, but the large collection of bored, emasculated narcissists in our culture have responded with an increasingly loud yawn with each successive installment.

If polls are to be believed, Planned Parenthood is actually still a pretty popular organization, and out of the people who saw the videos, less than half now have a more negative opinion of the child butchers.

Less than half.

Dear God, forgive us.

Of course, the media hasn’t helped matters. If you rely on mainstream “journalists” for your information, you probably didn’t hear a single word about the most recent footage, even though it contains blockbuster, earth-shattering news. You’ve likely been inundated with stories about Donald Trump and maybe Hillary Clinton, but not the continued wholesale slaughter and sale of infants.

Social media hasn’t been any better. Yesterday, several hours after the video was released, here were the top trending headlines on Twitter:

“Jared Fogle to plead guilty to underage sex, child porn”

“Did Shaun King mislead Oprah about his race?”

“Deez Nuts joins 2016 presidential race”

“50 crazy things photographers do to get the perfect shot”

“Megan Fox and Brian Austin Green split after 11 years together”

“Dolphins safety carted off field with ACL injury”

Conspicuously, out of the top 20 hot topics, none of them had anything to do with a billion dollar conglomerate ripping the brains out of children’s heads.

(Incidentally, it’s interesting that Jared Fogle is being arrested for child porn at all. It’s legal to execute children and use their bodies for medical research, so why exactly is it illegal to use their bodies as sex objects? When it comes to vile, wretched, despicable creatures, child pornographers and Planned Parenthood employees are clearly in the same subspecies. What’s the moral reasoning behind funding one and locking the other in prison?)

That’s our society for you. Infatuated with personalities, obsessed with politics and celebrity, but bored with the little details like life and death and genocide. We are, collectively, a terminally ill cancer patient worrying about a pimple on her forehead, or a man complaining about the scratch on his fender while the mangled pedestrian he just hit dies bleeding on the pavement.

I just can’t take this anymore. This preoccupation with irrelevant minutiae. This insane self-centeredness. This absolute disregard for human life. It’s not just strange or curious or unfortunate anymore; it’s downright sociopathic.

Is that the problem — mass sociopathy? Or are we just callous? Selfish? Afraid? Stupid?

I don’t know. I imagine the truth is a mix of these things. I imagine when some historian writes the definitive book about us, it might actually be titled, “Callous, Selfish, Afraid, and Stupid: The Story of Western Civilization in the 21st Century.”

There are some exceptions, of course. Plenty of pro-life warriors are out there, fighting for life and liberty with all they’ve got, but they are not the majority. They are exceptions to the rule, and the rule is something entirely unconscionable and shameful.

So if you missed the last offering in the Center for Medical Progress’ ongoing “HELLO, BABIES ARE BEING MURDERED AND SOLD FOR PROFIT AND NOW MIGHT BE A GOOD TIME TO START GIVING A CRAP” series (not the official title), I’ll give you the rundown. It’s horrific and terrible, obviously, but its fatal flaw is that it doesn’t involve Kim Kardashian or fast food spokesmen, therefore it has little hope of gaining the sort of attention it warrants.

The video opens with Deborah Nucatola, the lovely Planned Parenthood executive we met in previous episodes, explaining how she “huddles” with her team each morning to determine which babies will yield the best harvest.

We go to Holly O’Donnell, a former “tissue procurement specialist” with StemExpress, who reveals that “fully intact fetuses” are often cultivated for parts.

Cut to a procurement manager discussing how sometimes women go in for abortions and “are out in three minutes” because, by the time they’re ready for the procedure, the baby is “already in the vaginal canal” and it “just falls out.” In other words, it’s alive and in the process of being born.

In the following clip, a director for Planned Parenthood tells an undercover investigator that if they “alter their process” (a direct admission of a felony) they can “obtain intact fetal cadavers,” which are then cut up and sold in different shipments. The dismembered baby, she brags, is “just a line item.”

Back to Deborah Nucatola describing how the child’s “presentation” can be changed in order to preserve the brain.

O’Donnell then relays a story about a time when she witnessed the “procurement” of a developed baby with a beating heart. Her coworker reportedly squealed that it was “kinda neat.”

Cut to a succession of officials at Planned Parenthood and procurement firms detailing how babies can be aborted without destroying the bodies or poisoning the organs. There is really only one way to do this: deliver the baby alive, then dissect it. This is plainly stated by one official, who reports that sometimes the hearts are still working after the abortion.

The most disturbing part comes next. We see footage of a baby in a dish moving its limbs, as O’Donnell tells us how she was instructed to take the baby with the beating heart, cut open its face, and extract its brain.

This isn’t just the sale of aborted children we’re dealing with; this is the dissection of living babies. Babies are being born alive and murdered for their organs. Meanwhile, the sole counter to this claim is that the children are actually murdered moments before birth. That’s obviously not a viable moral defense to begin with, and it isn’t true, either.

This is what we’re facing: a situation where the best case scenario is that babies are being brutally murdered while still in the uterus and then disassembled in petri dishes minutes later. Essentially, Planned Parenthood is caught with a bloody knife, standing over a dead body, and their whole excuse is that they didn’t just kill the victim — they killed him seven minutes ago. But even that, it turns out, is too high an ethical bar for Planned Parenthood to reliably jump over.

Instead, they take babies with beating hearts and dismember them.

Do I need to repeat that a hundred times for it to matter to our culture?

Babies with beating hearts are being dismembered and sold or parts.

Babies with beating hearts are being dismembered and sold for parts.

Babies with beating hearts are being dismembered and sold for parts.

I could write 50,000 sentences elaborating on that theme, but I’m not sure any of it can do any good if “babies with beating hearts are being dismembered and sold for parts” isn’t already enough to fill you with an urgent, holy rage.

I probably can’t explain why this is wrong if you really don’t understand instinctively. I can’t infuse a functioning moral compass into your mind. Either you have a conscience or you don’t. Either you are a decent person or you are not. Either you care about the lives of children or you don’t. Either you will put all of your political prejudices aside and condemn this unmitigated evil or you won’t because you are a moral degenerate.

Tell him/her you're making a donation to PP in his name and then de-friend.

[aurora]

Spread lies like this and you (the author, not the OP) are simply not a decent person.

[bowies]

Oh this reminds me, I have someone I need to defriend.

[debatethis]

I actually had a person I consider a friend tell me that abortions aren't ok, even in cases where the mother's life is at stake, because there is no greater honor than a mother laying down her life for her baby.

The rage I felt was indescribable.

[mrsukyankee]

Gross.

[NewOrleans]

Support women being mandated to risk fistulas, eclampsia, amniotic embolism, HELLP, and surgical complications and you are not a decent person. Squeeee! We could do this all day!

And obviously using stem cells to cure medical conditions is just as horrible as Jared with child porn!

Did you tell her that she has the right to make that choice for herself if that's what she wants? Or does she think everyone must have the exact same sense of honor?

Yes and yes. She doesn't think abortion should be legal, at all, ever, no matter how terrible the circumstances that led to considering an abortion.

Where is the legitimate source that counters all of this? I mean, if people are posting this with no facts whatsoever to back it up, then what can I post that says "You're an asshole, facts matter?"

She probably wouldn't take this well:

The biggest Matt Walsh pusher I have on my FB is a friend who I actually bought the pregnancy test for because she was 19 and a sophomore in college. It all turned out beautifully for her, now a happily married mother of three tight in her church circle. The resident cool mom because she's a bit younger.

Anyways, it makes me so mad every time she goes off on abortions because she is sitting there in a best case scenario making her decision THE decision.

I also want to know what kind of abortions people think will be offered if planned parenthood is defunded. Do they think less will happen? Do they think more ethical measures will be taken? Abortions aren't going away, why would anyone want to make them worse without some monitoring?!

It’s legal to execute children and use their bodies for medical research, so why exactly is it illegal to use their bodies as sex objects?

I'm torn between raging and laughing out loud at this.  And I need to go give more $ to PP.

Dear Matt."The Douchebag".Walsh,



Thank you.

[Aquatica]

I saw the source was "theblaze" and couldn't help but roll my eyes before even reading...

As delightful as the Josh Duggar Ashley Madison reveal was, I think I would be 100x more gleeful if something scandalous came out about Matt Walsh and knocked that smug bitch face right on his ass.

[decemberwedding07]

I have said it before and I'll say it again. I fucking HATE Matt Walsh.

[turboteal]

That article must have been the impetus for the post I saw from a former high school friend last night. Blech.

To debatethis's friend:

I think my fiance and my older son prefer me alive.

I asked her why, if she was so pro-life, she was insistent on the deaths of two people instead of just one. ::crickets::
