Pelosi to Receive Planned Parenthood Award Honoring Eugenicist

March 21, 2014 - 10:23 AM

Anybody here know who she was and what “eugenics is?

Well, here's http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Margaret_Sanger her bio and another link to eugenics http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eugenics.

For those too lazy to read, Sanger was a vocal protagonist of – hold your breath for this – Improving the genetic quality of the human race by increasing those with desired traits [whites] and reducing those with undesirable traits [blacks and other minorities].

So Queen Nancy gets praised by the organization for slaughtering more black babies than any other organization throughout history.

Well, 3 cheers for Pelosi, that good 'devout Catholic'.... protector of an organization that's also known for hiding cases of rape and incest.

Gotta hand it to Pelosi, that woman of such 'integrity, ethics and morals'.... she's the type to wear that award like a badge of honor.

Wonder what the Pope thinks of it?

 

I wonder if DEMOCRAT icon Senator Byrd's wife was there?

 

Doesn't this ever get old, even for you people? Criticizing Planned Parenthood because of Sanger's ties to eugenics is like criticizing the moon landings because of von Braun's ties to the Nazis. But the space program is no more a Nazi project than Planned Parenthood is a eugenics exercise.

And nobody seems to notice that if all parenthood were planned, there would BE no abortions. Why is it that those most in favor of "ignorant random unfortunate accident" pregnancies are most opposed to abortions? What benefit is there to maximizing the number of unwanted children?

 

The "benefit" is to the smug self-righteous who do NOT care about any "unborn babies", they simply want to be able to make "sluts" pay the price for having sex by denying them birth control.

Notice that now these people are "feeling their oats", they demand the ability to block women and girls from receiving the regular birth control Pill, the morning after pill, and many other contraceptives , BY LAW and onerous regulations, using the COMPLETELY bogus argument that these things cause "abortions".

 

I can't speak for everyone - just myself.

I don't give a damn if every girl or woman who wantd to use a contraceptive or "correct the mistake" when they don't use them does so. Let 'em!

What I DO oppose is using MY tax $$$ to pay for it! Or making it a requirement.

 

They thrive on murdering babies... so it's totally cool stuff.

 

Exactly. If you can't afford birth control you can't afford the child that comes from having sex. Besides using some medications for other purposes why should I or anyone else pay for your sex? No one pays for my wife's birth control. I do.

 

Wrong, that comparison is totally invalid. Sanger built it, whereas Braun did not build the US space program. If baby killers don't want to be associated with Sanger they should denounce her and build an organization that has no ties to her. Any and all criticism tied to her is valid...

 

Planned Parenthood has nothing to do with eugenics. The organization's only ties to her are historical. Criticism of Sanger is not criticism of Planned Parenthood.

And I notice you were careful not to explain why you wish to maximize the number of unwanted children. Imagine my surprise, that you ignore the actual mission of an organization while you seek to smear it with guilt by association. How delightfully honest of you. You wouldn't happen to be a Christian, would you?

 

This thread proves without a doubt that some do not know that only a very small number of planned parenthood clinics provide abortion services, always love to see them demonstrating in front of one that does not and not even know they look foolish.

 

Where is it said that you should only be responsible for the consequences you planned?

 

They have taken over 7 million lives in their time. The largest murdering group in the United States. They have killed more then all of the casualties we inflicted in all of the wars we were in combined. Except that every life PP took was innocent and robbed of choosing their path in life.

 

It's hardly guilt by association if they name their own awards after her now is it?

 

Not that this matters to the topic at hand, but did you know that Nancy Pelosi 'represents' California's 12th congressional district, which consists of four-fifths of the city and county of San Francisco?

In other words, she isn't reelected every few years by a significant number of Californians.
She is reelected every few years by a significant number of San Franciscans.

I'm just saying…

 

Wouldn't you rather be responsible for consequences you planned, than for those you didn't? Personally, I think all parenthood should be planned.

 

And that in of itself is a loss for you as an individual male. Why should you be the one to tote the woman's responsibilities, especially in this day and age where we're maligned regardless. We're looked at as a piece of crap, then if we do something right, we're seen as "white knighting."

So really, I speak to all men: What are we doing to ourselves?

 

Yes, it is. Sanger was a proponent of eugenics, which was a Big Thing in her day. She also founded Planned Parenthood. But Planned Parenthood has nothing to do with eugenics.

Now, maybe I'm misunderstanding the intention here. It SOUNDS to me like people are saying that Planned Parenthood is somehow a bad (or worse) thing because the founder ALSO had ideas no longer in vogue. The award is named for the founder, and the founder's name is used because she founded the organization. NOT because she was a proponent of engenics.

 

As close as feasible, she's elected by the same number of constituents as all Representatives. In states with large populations, each Representative's district is a relatively small part of the whole state. Which California Representative IS elected by a significant number of Californians? Can we say "none", boys and girls?

 

Several points here.

A small percentage of Planned Parenthood's services used are for pregnancy termination.

Second, why is it that folks have to drag race into this? Why? is it necessary to the conversation. to any point being made?

 

She actually founded the American Birth Control League....

Um mentioning Sangers pasts and her hatred of Blacks is hardly randomly bringing race into a topic. Sangers words and deeds brings race into the topic.

 

Yes. That is why I take personal responsibility. But with that comes responsibility for your mistakes too. Surely you don't think negligence cases should all be dismissed?

 

Yeah, hasn't she been dead for like 80 years?

Isn't it (*)(*)(*)(*)ing odd that using someone who has been dead for so (*)(*)(*)(*)ing long, whose possible views are not related to the current Planned Parenthood, yet is trotted out as a cheap argument every chance it can be?

It is like Car and Driver criticizing the new Volkswagen TDI's performance because of Hitler's involvement in the creation of Volkswagen. For (*)(*)(*)(*)s sake, the two things have nothing to do with each other.

 

If they have no ties to Sanger why do the have a yearly celebration of her why do they name an award after her

 

Does VW celebrate Hitler every year?
Does VW give out an award every year with his name on it?
