<\/div>

One of the most important, life-preserving rules in fire safety education is this: \u201cWhen the house is on fire, DO NOT go back inside.\u201d\u00a0 \u00a0The rule is often repeated and stamped in brochures with underlines and bold lettering because instructors know that it is human nature to cling to homes, to stuff and to the memories that they inspire.\u00a0 Fire safety instructors know that even if it means risking their lives and the possibility of becoming nothing more than ashes, most humans will want – with all that is in them – to get back into that building and SAVE THEIR THINGS.\u00a0 And so, the instructors proclaim this rule with urgency \u201cWHEN THE HOUSE IS ON FIRE DO NOT GO BACK INSIDE.\u201d<\/p>\n

While I am certain that Planned Parenthood defenders are gravely mistaken and while I vehemently oppose their battle to protect an organization that kills, corrupts, victimizes and lies \u2013 I GET IT.\u00a0 Their house (Planned Parenthood) is raging with fire and the displaced defenders are watching helplessly from the yard concerned less with the reality that flames of exposure and destruction are sweeping every inch of the building and more with the erroneous idea that if their house becomes rubble their \u201cstuff\u201d will too.<\/p>\n

To its defenders Planned Parenthood is the allegorical home of FEMINISM.\u00a0 Never mind, that the rights and freedoms of hundreds of thousands of little women are denied by their abortion procedures each year.\u00a0 Never mind, that Planned Parenthood is silent even accommodating, while young girls are victimized, willingly returned to abuse and exploitation.\u00a0 Never minding those hypocrisies, many feminists in our nation have long associated women\u2019s freedom with Planned Parenthood.\u00a0 And because they so value the precepts of that cause, they are willing to GO BACK INSIDE, denying the fire to protect their \u201cstuff.\u201d\u00a0 Planned Parenthood is also considered home to social justice initiatives, health care access for the poor, and political identity.\u00a0 However, those often positive causes and ambitions have very little to do with the institution that is Planned Parenthood.\u00a0 As long as the organization can deceive its supporters into thinking that it is residence to their causes, Planned Parenthood can create for itself a well-meaning army of resistance against those who question its practices.<\/p>\n

Planned Parenthood, like fire safety personnel, understands the human condition and the sometimes blinding desire to associate a place and things with self.\u00a0 Accordingly, they have tricked their following into defending them even after mounting evidence that they compromise and deny the very causes which feminists and other social activists support.<\/p>\n

The reality that the facade of Planned Parenthood is burning away, exposing the abhorrent frame and foundation of the business to America \u2013 matters not to those who think their STUFF and the glory of their personal cause is trapped inside.\u00a0 And so, though the house is on fire, defenders would rather plug their noses to the smoke, ignore the charred debris and bright orange sparks that are floating to the ground around them – and while it is foolishness to those at a distance \u2013 THEY WANT TO GO BACK INSIDE.\u00a0 If only these exhausted guardians knew that their \u201cSTUFF\u201d is not buried in Planned Parenthood\u2019s house.\u00a0 The organization is not the home of feminism, nor the residence of social justice.\u00a0 Passionate individuals do not need to risk their lives, call into question their sanity or waste their time rushing to the doors of this burning building.\u00a0\u00a0 They have, within themselves, all that they need to continue their advocacy for the causes in which they believe and they do not need the help of Planned Parenthood to do it.<\/p>\n

The house of Planned Parenthood is indeed on fire and I am begging of its defenders \u201cDO NOT GO BACK INSIDE.\u201d<\/p>\n

Note to the radical pro-abortion blogs that love to take everything out of its reasonable context to make extreme accusations: This article’s mention of Planned Parenthood on fire is clearly an analogy<\/a>. In no way is arson against Planned Parenthood supported. Live Action is a 100% non-violent organization and does not associate with anyone who does not share that commitment.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
