Planned Parenthood creates yet another disgusting web site
When you are involved in the fight against Planned Parenthood, at times you may think this organization certainly could not get any worse. This "non-profit" organization receives over $330 million in government funding each year and kills over 280,000 babies each year. It creates sleazy web sites such as www.teenwire.com and puts out absolutely filthy TV commercials. Planned Parenthood sells sex. It doesn't matter what type of sex; it sells it all. No responsibility, no respect, no concern for the salvation of others. Planned Parenthood is disgusting.
Planned Parenthood is an organization that does Satan's work.
WARNING: The following web site address is for one of Planned Parenthood's most recent web sites that are not appropriate for anyone at any age. Yet, Planned Parenthood feels this site is appropriate for teens. The only reason we are bringing this web site to your attention is because this is the kind of material that PP attempts to put in the eyes and minds of our children.
This organization is after your children and after their souls. If you do not feel comfortable with looking at any type of Planned Parenthood material, then please do not click on the following link: www.takecaredownthere.org
Join in the fight and help shut down this organization once and for all. Sign the petition, let your congressional representatives know we don't want our tax dollars to go into the hands of this baby-killing organization, write letters to the editor of your local newspaper, investigate your local schools to see if PP is involved in its sex education programs and start a local protest!

Planned Parenthood's Teen Savvy Conference in Dallas tomorrow!
Each year Planned Parenthood holds its Teen Savvy Conference in Dallas, TX. This conference is primarily targeted towards young children, ages 11 and up, from lower-income families.
Planned Parenthood's description:
Teen Savvy is an annual day long youth workshop for young people, ages 11-17, who participate in summer programs offered by Dallas social service agencies…The purpose of Teen Savvy is to provide education to help teens identify problems that impact their successful transition into adulthood, promote self-esteem and offer referrals to those teens in trouble.
Does PP mention that it will be pushing pornography and sexually explicit information on the children? No. Why would PP warn adults about that? In the past, PP has distributed copies of It's Perfectly Normal, and it is quite possible that PP is not even getting parental consent for the children who attend.
This year Planned Parenthood will be scandalizing young children at T.W. Browne Middle School, 3333 Sprague Dr. in Dallas, Texas, tomorrow, July 24, beginning at 8:30 a.m.
Pro-lifers have protested this event in the past and because of their witness, groups of children have turned away after the adults realized what kind of material these young children will be receiving from Planned Parenthood.
This year, pro-lifers in Dallas will be out there again. Groups that will be protesting include DCAPP Members, Texans Opposed to Planned Parenthood, Catholic Pro-Life Committee, Texans for Life Coalition, Catholics Respect Life, Texas Life Chain, Operation Outcry North Texas, Operation Save America Dallas and New Wave Femmes.
If you are interested in more information about protesting, please contact JoAnn Murray via telephone at (972) 442-1127 or (214) 728-2504 or via e-mail at joannmurray@verizon.net.

Planned Parenthood holds Operation Rescue hostage at clinic
Seriously folks, when you think Planned Parenthood can't get any more stupid, it pulls something like this that really makes you wonder about its standing as a national "health organization." Not only does Planned Parenthood kill innocent children every day – 5,572 each week – it now holds pro-lifers against their will.
Last weekend, local pro-lifers were protesting outside of the Planned Parenthood facility in St. Louis, Missouri. Operation Rescue's Truth Truck, driven by Mark Gietzen, pulled into Planned Parenthood's parking lot, which by the way, is perfectly legal. What did Planned Parenthood do? Security guards at this facility closed the parking lot's iron gates so Mark and the Truth Truck could not leave Planned Parenthood.
Talk about stupid.
So what happened? Mothers who were considering abortion could see the truck parked in Planned Parenthood's parking lot and obviously could see the pictures of aborted babies. Operation Rescue President Troy Newman said, "By locking the Truth Truck into their parking lot, they were accomplishing our work for us!"
Women were seeing the truth about abortion – something Planned Parenthood would never tell them.
So, yes, after the police arrived, Planned Parenthood had to release the truck. In our country, you can't hold someone against their will, but you can kill people – as long as they're inside their mother's womb.

Planned Parenthood fighting personhood
In the past, Planned Parenthood has gotten involved in statewide efforts to convince people not to vote pro-life. It gets particularly involved when a personhood initiative is on the ballot. Planned Parenthood spent time and money in South Dakota when personhood was on the ballot there and now Planned Parenthood plans to fight Colorado's personhood initiative.
If Colorado's inititative passes in November, it will be the first state to declare that personhood begins at fertilization. What is Planned Parenthood doing about it? Many things, including holding strategy and planning sessions. Next Wednesday, July 30, from 6 to 8 p.m., at its new killing center in Stapleton, PP will host a movie night to discuss strategy.
Planned Parenthood says,
We all know Colorado will take center stage in this year's election. This offers YOU a unique opportunity to create a meaningful impact in our community as an informed, proactive voter! Do you have questions on the details of November 4? Have you heard about Amendment 48 regarding the definition of personhood? Come out and learn more!
If you are in town, feel free to stop by and hold up some signs to send the message that Planned Parenthood will not sabotage this ballot initiative, because life does begin at fertilization, and we must support Colorado for Equal Rights!

An update on Planned Parenthood protest in Woodbridge, Virginia
Two weeks ago, we reported that Planned Parenthood Advocates of Virginia had scheduled a workshop for young people in a public library in Woodbridge. This was actually a training session for young people to help do PP's dirty work – that is, recruit more customers for Planned Parenthood's business.
The following is a report from Marie Hahnenberg, researcher at American Life League.
Last week, a group of local pro-lifers here in Virginia protested a Planned Parenthood training session for young people. Where was it held? A public library. What an ideal spot for an organization that is looking for young people. As a group of us stood outside the Chinn Park Regional Library, holding signs that read, "Planned Parenthood Steals Souls" and "Face It. Abortion Kills," we had many people give us confused looks. They were probably wondering why we would be standing outside a local library holding signs about Planned Parenthood.
Well, people soon found out why we were there. One young woman stood out amongst the others because she was in shock and complete disbelief. She asked why an organization that kills babies would be meeting at a public library.
"That's because Planned Parenthood is after young people, such as you," I told her in response. After about 10 minutes of talking, she asked how she could get more involved with pro-life activities. Praise God! Awareness and education are essential to winning this fight. Our young people must be educated in the truth, since 70 percent of PP's customer base is under the age of 25.
Apparently, Planned Parenthood employees even had a group of men stand in the parking lot to watch our every move, as if we had anything to hide. Actually, it's Planned Parenthood that is afraid. It doesn't want to cause controversy – it just wants to continue its business – killing more children, sexualizing more young people and not have any controversy over it. Well, we cannot just sit by and allow this organization to continue killing 5,572 babies each week! We must take action and do something about it.
Although we did not stop Planned Parenthood from meeting, we did notice that only four young women came to this training session. Who knows how many others walked away after seeing us out there. You never know how many lives we could have saved by just witnessing to the truth.

'Roe' has been saved
We have seen how effective protesting really is. We have also noticed how effective it is when you hold a sign that sends a message you are trying to convey. One sign we have decided to promote is one that tells a story that not even Planned Parenthood can deny –Norma McCorvey (Jane Roe) in the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision, now recognizes that she was wrong about abortion and is pro-life.
Our "Roe Has Been Saved! She's Now Pro-Life" signs are bright pink – the same color Planned Parenthood uses in its signs and T-shirts. This makes for a great protest sign because it actually looks like Planned Parenthood's "Save Roe!" sign, and when people read our sign, which could be your sign, they get a totally different message – which is quite a message!
For a special limited time, we are selling these for only $5.00. If you are interested, visit our pro-life store at: http://americanlifeleague.stores.yahoo.net/roehasbeensa.html.

YOU made a difference!
Action does make a difference. Doing something actually does work. Thanks to all of you for all that you do to help protect the preborn and defeat Planned Parenthood. We want to send a special thanks to those who took the initiative and made the phone calls at the time Habitat for Humanity was doing business with Planned Parenthood in Florida. Because of you, Habitat for Humanity broke its agreement with Planned Parenthood, and PP was left hanging.
Also, a special thanks to all of you who took action and called the Walmart Supercenter in the state of Washington recently when Planned Parenthood attempted to pass out literature on its property. Because of you, Planned Parenthood was defeated once again and not able to carry through with its plans.
So please, keep it up! Praise God for you – the local activist. Godspeed!
