You Can Now Get Botox at Planned Parenthood

Post by R7ehr »

File this under news I never thought I’d see. This week Planned Parenthood Mar Monte—the largest affiliate of the national sexual and reproductive healthcare provider, with locations across mid-California and Northern Nevada—announced a new strategy for closing its massive $100 million dollar revenue gap left by federal budget cuts. They would start offering Botox. Also, IV drips and soon, according to an exclusive story in the Wall Street Journal this week, fillers and laser hair removal

They should just close. Be better off without them.

Makes sense. Botox kills off tissue. Kind of fits their overall mission.

Removing all doubt. It’s about the Benjamins.

Do you think there should be a lot more unwanted and unplanned pregnancies? Without them, the abortion rate would go up.

I believe every child is a gift from God. With that said, fornication ie not part of God’s plan.

The youth in my church are somehow able to avoid getting pregnant until marriage.

That’s like saying we should just kill the poor, because that would make the poverty rate go down.

Are you equating birth control with killing?

We are not going to be able to keep a major portion of the population to refrain from having sex outside of marriage. Planned Parenthood is primarily about birth control. With less access to birth control, there will be more unwanted pregnancies.

If birth control prevents implantation then yes it’s killing.
If it’s tube ties, barriers, no problem.

I don’t think myself or R7ehr are advocating getting laws changed.

They really should call it Planned Non-Parenthood.

The original idea was that couples could wait a while before having children, space the ages of their children, and decide how many they wanted — planning. I'm unaware of how much that is the focus of their current operation.
