Pro-lifers spoke to abortionist Randall Whitney in his car. According to him, an aborted baby:
“Would not have been a full baby…It is not a being..It is not a baby. The baby is when its born, it is separate from its host…[when the pro-lifer mentioned God] I grew up in the church…It’s not a human being…
Former Pres. of Planned Parenthood Gloria Feldt on abortion and why women have them:
“I have spoken and read letters from hundreds of women about their experiences with abortion, and one thing I know is that abortion is almost always a profoundly moral choice. Women and men plan their families because they have respect and reverence for human life. Women who choose abortions do so because they love children…”

An abortion clinic worker describes how some clinics don’t offer any pre-abortion counseling to pregnant women:
“I actually took the counseling portion of the program for granted until I learned that some very compassionate, professional clinics don’t offer counseling to their clients. It could be a trick to save time (clients always complain about how long the process takes) or minimize cost (we ARE in a recession), and it could simply be what has worked and continues to work for individual clinics.”

It is sad to think that some women go to a clinic and get no guidance to make such a weighty and important decision. The clinic worker doesn’t mention it, but another reason to save time is that if women are rushed through their abortions quickly, more women can be scheduled and the clinic can make more money.

A Planned Parenthood worker who got pregnant and chose to have an abortion said the following:
“I felt this entity within me, flooding me with immense strength and love… While pregnant, there was also the feeling that I was never alone. I spent a lot of time lying on my bed with my hand on my belly letting the buzz of contentment vibrate through me….
I am selfish and I know it. I want to travel the world and be a perpetual student. I know that, from my perspective, having a child would mean giving up many of my dreams, and until I am as joyful about the prospect of becoming a parent as I am about my other pursuits, I can’t give a child what he/she deserves. But the pregnancy helped me see why others would choose parenthood. My pregnancy experience struck a very basic primal chord within me, and I was amazed by the creation occurring within me. .…
Having an abortion is not always traumatic. If you can get beyond societal shame and expectation, you might find a message just waiting to be discovered. I never turned away from the fact that I would be ending a potential life. Facing and accepting this was the most important thing I could’ve done to prepare myself for my abortion. This might sound strange to some, but I actually talked with the being inside of me. I made peace with it. I knew that there was a reason for this pregnancy and it wasn’t about becoming a mother.”

Remains of an abortion at ten weeks. Did she make peace with her baby only to do this to her?Share on Facebook
“Abortion is not like having your tooth pulled or having your appendix out. It involves the termination of an early form of human life. That deserves some gravitas.”
Pro-choicer and former president of Catholics for Free Choice Frances Kissling

In an old post from 2009, a clinic worker describes how she feels about her job:
“I don’t know about you, but sometimes I feel our work can be incredibly isolating….for me and my co-workers, it can sometimes feel like we’re alone. No one wants to hear about where you work or what you do. Often family and friends don’t even want to know about your day. Maybe it’s a sign I’ve been doing abortion work a long time because I just simply don’t talk about my day anymore. And I hardly notice that I don’t. Who’s going to understand, anyway?”
“For 10 years I have been an ultrasonographer and have witnessed the development of pre-born children. I am convinced that if every mother could see her baby on ultrasound, the abortion argument would be over.
A look through the window reveals the true victim of abortion. This is why our presentations are often censored. For example…
In 1990, I testified on fetal development before the House and Senate subcommittee considering the “Freedom of Choice Act.”
I brought an ultrasound videotape of fully formed fetuses as young as eight weeks after conception. Representative Don Edwards (his D – CA) tried to prevent me from showing the videotape.”

Today, pro-choicers fight tooth and nail against allowing women the option to see their babies on ultrasounds in abortion clinics. Pro-choice organizations don’t just fight laws REQUIRING women to view the images, they fight just as hard against laws that say an abortion provider must offer the woman a CHOICE whether or not to see them. Even offering women a CHOICE to view an ultrasound is against Planned Parenthood and NARAL Pro-Choice America’s agenda.
