Paging Brett "The Hitman" Hart ... please pick up a white courtesy phone!
As always, if you'd like ON or OFF my wrasslin' ping list, let me know
yep.
and even if you don’t care about abortion itself,
it certainly can INCREASE the chance of breast cancer.
...so, even an atheist,
should refuse to support Komen,
as long as they are affiliated with Planned Parenthood.
=
( fighting breast cancer, by FUNDING something,
that significantly increases the chance of breast cancer?
...that type of insanity is unique to liberals. )
>>... and Komen is bed with the Nazis at Planned Parenthood<<
Yep, abortionists.
Of course, they have always been political. You would think men don’t ever get cancer at all and only womyn need money and research.
I just drool over John Cena, but I think he’s very misguided in his support of Komen’s foundation. Good thing to be against cancer in any form, bad thing that her foundation supports killing babies before they are born! (Planned Parenthood probably thinks the unborn are “cancer”).
Lots of folks don’t dig deep enough to really find out about the charities or “good causes” they support. And, sadly, there are probably a lot of good charities that have very shady/disappointing parts. Nothing is ever as it seems...
Please put me on the wrestling ping list. Thanks!
Abortion supporters get no support from me
Yes, the whole thing is sullied now with the blood of innocents.
Even before the shiite hit the fan on this thing, I was sick of all the incessant pink marketing. Now I try to avoid buying anything with that damn pink on it.
Because nothing makes the case for abortion like the WWE.
Strange since the McMachons are so Republican.
Why support baby killers?
Me too.
It was always a marketing gimick, just a brand.
Once they made the NFL stars looks like pinkos all last year, I had enough.
BTW where is that cure?
Much love and respect for all taken down and survivors of BC, but a good alibi doesn’t make bad people impervious to scorn or examination.
Well if you kill them before they are born they don't get breast cancer.
I wish the same would happen with the Democrats for their in again-out again of God and Israel in their platform.
Since they’re men, shouldn’t they champion finding a cure for prostate cancer and leave the breast cancer to women? Or does no one really care at all about men’s cancer?
Cena doesn’t wear panties like the rest of those wrestlers. Ok, he wears jorts, but at least he isn’t in panties.
