Washington Post: Planned Parenthood’s “services” save taxpayers money

“The fight also isn’t about cutting spending. The services Planned Parenthood provides save the federal government a lot of money. It’s somewhat cold to put it in these terms, but taxpayers end up bearing a lot of the expense for unintended pregnancies among people without the means to care for their children.”

Editorial on one of the reasons Planned Parenthood should be supported and not defunded

Woman says her baby was “happy” to be aborted

One British woman was told that her baby might be disabled. She went to see a Reiki practitioner about the pregnancy and decided to have an abortion.

I still couldn’t come to terms with it, so I went to see a Reiki master and spiritual healer – I felt there was no one else to turn to for impartial advice; all my family and friends were emotionally involved.

I asked if the healer’s spirit guide could connect with the foetus. She said she had a very strong sense that the baby wasn’t 100 per cent perfect and that he was happy to go to the other side, but would be back again soon.

Immediately I felt enormously relieved because I’d been feeling so guilty. …

Twelve weeks pregnant, I returned to my GP who sent me to hospital. I couldn’t bear to look at the scan, but the nurse let slip that my baby was a boy… I didn’t have to go through any counselling. But the only way I got through the termination was knowing that the spirit of my foetus had forgiven me and that he was going to come back.”

Abortion clinics are businesses, don’t like protesters

From Lauren Bianchi, of the pro-choice group FURIE:

“I don’t know exactly when escorting started but it was a response to an awful wave of terrorism, when antiabortion protesters would chain themselves to the doors to keep people from getting in. Clinics are businesses. They don’t want people standing around outside. [Activists] thought they should be allowed to have clinic-defense protests. When I was an escort, I was told that patients can’t tell the difference [between protesting factions].”

Abortionist under oath describes “small coffins” for aborted babies

From a summary of testimony partial-birth abortion ban:

No sentiment is detected in Dr. Westoff’s description about the baby’s “tiny face and a relatively large head” and how stabbing the head with scissors or her own finger causes it to look “a little wrinkly and collapsed, but the facial structures are not disturbed at all by that procedure.” Even the “small coffins” and “little hats” available to “cover the back of the head where the incision had been made” [if the woman wants to see the baby after the abortion] are discussed with a insouciant air.

Emotions appear only when the question arises of fetal pain. Even then, the emotion is anger that the question was asked.

Abortionist: we hire people based on political commitment

Susan Poppema, abortionist:

“We choose people to work [at the clinic] based on their political commitment as well as their medical capabilities. We can teach people what they need to know medically, but we cannot teach them political commitment; we can encourage it, but we can’t teach that as well.”

Woman who had two abortions: I need to mature and grow

A woman who had 2 abortions said:

Ultrasound of baby at 7 weeks. This baby would've been torn apart and dismembered in an abortion at this stage. — Ultrasound of baby at 7 weeks. This baby would’ve been torn apart and dismembered in an abortion at this stage.

“This is not right for my soul’s growth at this time. You can basically say to the child, I’m not equipped to help you grow up right yet. I’m not grown up myself. I choose not to let you into my life for your benefit. I need to mature, I need to grow.”
