The saddest birthday party ever
On Oct. 16, 2016, Planned Parenthood will celebrate its 100th anniversary. This is the organization that is responsible for more than 67 million abortions.
That's a lot of birthdays that will never be celebrated. In fact, Oct. 16 is the saddest birthday ever.
Planned Parenthood is the nation's No. 1 abortion provider, performing one in three of all abortions in our country each year. The last annual corporate report from Planned Parenthood took credit for performing 323,999 abortions in the U.S.
You may have read that abortion clinics are closing at a significant rate. This is not random and the closures are not inconsequential. They are the product of a business model, which maximizes revenues by closing smaller clinics (often ones that do not perform abortions), adding chemical abortions and by constructing mega-clinics, which allows Planned Parenthood to perform massive numbers of abortions at a central site.
In their 2014-2015 annual report, Planned Parenthood revenues exceeded $1.3 billion. That's a lot of money for a birthday party.
You might note a clinic closing, but we at Lake County Right to Life are saving our celebration for the day when the killing of babies stops and birthdays can be celebrated.
