Pink Ribbon Scandal: Pro-Life Groups Speak Out Against Komen

Graham commented, “Komen is racing to find a cure while supporting an agency that increases the occurrence of breast cancer. An organization devoted to ending breast cancer and improving women’s health can hardly do so while supporting an abortion giant.”

Komen is spending millions to kill babies.

Thanks be to God that someone, finally, has organized an effort to push back.

[normy]

Thank God this is being exposed.

Guess I’ll head over to the LIVE in New Hampshire open thread before and after the debate. See you there?

“Komen is spending millions to kill babies”

I haven’t donated to Komen in years since I found out that it had been coopted by the baby killing industry. ‘Kind of sad, really since I know so many who are cancer survivors. We need an organization that is purely devoted to finding a cure for breast cancer instead of murdering the innocent.

Has anyone approached the Komen Foundation and lobbied them to stop funding Planned Parenthood?

[wagglebee]

I think Komen has been very effective in convincing the public that they are the ONLY group working to cure/prevent breast cancer, but this is simply false.

Additionally, Komen's supporters believe that our opposition to Komen is because we somehow don't care or don't understand. The TRUTH is that I don't know a single person who hasn't had a wife, mother, grandmother, sister or aunt who has been afflicted. We understand that EVERY PENNY donated for breast cancer prevention and research MUST be spent on this and nothing else.

If people want to give money to Big Murder that is certainly their right, but they should do so under the believe that it is somehow preventing breast cancer. Big Murder has NEVER PERFORMED A SINGLE MAMMOGRAM.

How can you want to save lives and kill lives at the same time?

[wagglebee]

Komen knows what the problem is, they claim the money is for breast cancer screening; however, manual exams DON'T COST ANYTHING, nor do referrals for mammograms, and BIG MURDER HAS NEVER PERFORMED A MAMMOGRAM (they don't even have a machine).

Not till after 8 but I’ll say hi

More and more people are questioning the Komen Foundation’s association with Planned Parenthood. Hopefully the questions will continue.

I found their site and they released a statement a few months ago about that association. They insist that none of their contributions to Planned Parenthood are earmarked towards abortions.

I admit that I don’t know much about either organiztions. Are Planned Parenthood’s departments so compartmentalized that they keep their various functions separate from each other?

Even IF they are, it is IMPOSSIBLE that the funds don't get commingled. With ANY organization, a sizable portion of money goes to cover overhead and that means that the more of Komen's money that can be spent on overhead they more money PP can put toward killing babies.

[BykrBayb]

I wonder if their goal is to kill babies, or to increase incidents of breast cancer. They’re succeeding at both.

Same pair of pants . . . different pockets . . . It's disgusting that we'll be drowned in this "pink" madness for the entire month while money goes to help cruelly slaughter and mutilate unborn and newly born American children. Disgusting.

[BykrBayb]

I go out of my way to avoid supporting Komen because they support breast cancer instead of research.

[Figment]

Even if your contribution is earmarked for mamograms only, that just frees up other money for abortions. You give to planned parenthood, you give to abortion

[Figment]

Same if you’re giving to United Way through your payroll deductions. You can designate whatever you want to a local charity, but you are donating to planned parenthood. Give directly to your favorite charity, not through these umbrella groups

While I agree with everything said here, I’d like to also point out that SGK also supports embryonic stem cell research. That’s just another form of abortion. Human beings are being destroyed, and to add insult to injury, embryonic stem cells have produced NOTHING - no treatments or cures for any disease. Yet, SGK insists on pursuing this. Hmmmm.....
