The abortion movement — especially NARAL Pro-Choice America –has been railing against\u00a0pro-life pregnancy\u00a0resource centers for women for years. As Calvin Freiburger recently highlighted<\/a>, the pro-abortion media is currently up in arms about the Idaho state health department informing women of where they can receive free ultrasounds, because all of the locations are crisis pregnancy centers.<\/p>\n

NARAL naturally\u00a0couldn\u2019t resist the chance to knock CPCs by tweeting this ThinkProgress article<\/a> from Alex Zielinski…<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

SERIOUSLY? Idaho is telling women to go to #antichoice<\/a> #CPCs<\/a> to receive #reprohealth<\/a> care: https:\/\/t.co\/hpsRZSUXKy<\/a> @alex_zee<\/a> #ExposeCPCs<\/a><\/p>\n

\u2014 NARAL (@NARAL) August 4, 2016<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

(Freiburger debunked<\/a> NARAL\u2019s<\/a> lies<\/a> about CPCs in a three-part series, focusing on ultrasounds here<\/a>.)<\/p>\n

The most significant admission in\u00a0Zielinski\u2019s anti-CPC rant is that Planned Parenthood locations weren\u2019t included on the state’s list because they don\u2019t provide free ultrasounds<\/em>. No, Planned Parenthood charges for theirs, along with everything else, despite supposedly being a resource for “women’s healthcare.”\u00a0None of Planned Parenthood\u2019s services are free, and while they do<\/em> routinely perform ultrasounds<\/a> before abortions, the purpose of those ultrasounds are not to fully inform the woman but\u00a0to date the pregnancy (to know which procedure to use) and guide the abortionist on performing the abortion\u00a0correctly, to lessen the mother’s own chances of injury or death. And, of course, abortion is Planned Parenthood’s most\u00a0lucrative<\/a>\u00a0trade — otherwise,\u00a0this national and world leader<\/a> in abortions wouldn’t\u00a0see<\/a>\u00a0pregnant women as a way to make a profit.<\/p>\n

\"DefundAd-400b\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Planned Parenthood has\u00a0yet to meet<\/a>\u00a0an abortion regulation it\u00a0wasn\u2019t willing<\/a>\u00a0to fight — even\u00a0informed consent laws, including ultrasounds. Twenty-five states have some sort of law<\/a>\u00a0requiring\u00a0that a woman be given the opportunity to view her ultrasound before an abortion, and Planned Parenthood all too often opposes these laws<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Planned Parenthood has denied<\/a> women<\/a> the chance to see their ultrasounds (even when required to do so by law). They’ve also lied to women<\/a>\u00a0about fetal development. As\u00a0Planned Parenthood already regards itself<\/a> as above the law, this shouldn’t be surprising.\u00a0The reality is that Planned Parenthood doesn’t get their money when\u00a0women\u00a0change their minds<\/a>\u00a0about abortion after being fully informed and seeing their babies’ ultrasounds. That\u2019s the side the abortion movement doesn\u2019t like to deal with or even acknowledge.<\/p>\n

How is\u00a0Planned Parenthood’s opposition to\u00a0informed consent laws<\/a>\u00a0helpful to\u00a0women\u2019s health?\u00a0How is it pro-woman or pro-choice if women are only encouraged toward one option — abortion? It\u2019s not, which is why Planned Parenthood isn\u2019t actually pro-woman or pro-choice at all.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
