The "Planned Parenthood" Myth

The "Planned Parenthood" Myth

By Dr. John E. Russell

Planned Parenthood is a misnomer.
It should be called
"Planned Un-Parenthood."

Planned Parenthood was started by Margaret Sanger, who was an avid supporter of Adolph Hitler's involuntary sterilization, human experimentation, eugenics and forced abortion. She believed that blacks, southern Europeans and Evangelicals were inferior and they were a major target in her eugenics program--the "purification" of the human race by selective breeding.

The Southern Baptists published an article by Sheila Massey, who said that more American Blacks would be aborted than born by the year 2015. This is a form of genocide. Sheila Massey founded African-Americans for Life in 1991. Massey gives the reason for the organization:

Black Christians, in particular, should actively oppose abortion, because it affects African-Americans disproportionately. While blacks constitute 8 percent of the United States population, 37 percent of abortions are on African-American women.
In 2015, we will be dying at a faster rate than we are reproducing. The main message is that we have to be educated and informed about what is happening.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
[For this genocide] judgment is going to begin first in the African-American house of God.
("Pro-lifer Sheila Massey reaches out to African-Americans," Light, November-December, 1994).

Mrs. Judie Brown, President of the American Life League, cites that although 26% of Planned Parenthood's customers are minorities, 46% of them receive abortions!

Planned Parenthood sells birth control devices at a profit although IRS has ruled it to be a non-profit organization. Planned Parenthood was expected to generate $85,000,000 in revenue from the sale of birth control pills in 1997. (Brown)

Brown also states that Planned Parenthood was expected to perform 135,000 abortions in 1997.

According to the GAO, Planned Parenthood recommends abortion 618% more frequently than other similar organization. (Brown)

Planned Parenthood transports high school girls during school hours so that they can get abortions without their parents' consent. A school nurse cannot give children even an aspirin without parents' permission. However, Planned Parenthood gets by with giving children birth control advice along with condoms, and finally, abortions! All without parents' permission! (Brown)

Planned Parenthood does not inform its clients that abstinence is the only way not to contract HIV.

There have been over 45,000,000 legal abortions in the U S since 1973. Planned Parenthood and our President say they have been trying to prevent "unwanted pregnancies" and to reduce the number of abortions.

Planned Parenthood is a misnomer. It should be named "Planned UN-Parenthood." According to Mrs. Brown, It recommends, percentagewise, for pregnant women,
To adopt, less than 4%
To begin prenatal care, 5%;
and To abort, 91%.

Planned Parenthood pressures minority women into sterilization. (Brown)

Planned parenthood receives one-third of its total income ($150,000,000) from American taxpayers. (Brown)

This funding must be stopped immediately! It is just not right!
