NARAL Attacking October Baby Film Over Pregnancy Centers
LifeNews.com ^ | 4/12/12 | Steven Ertelt

NARAL is attacking the pro-life October Baby film currently playing in hundreds of movie theaters across the country because proceeds from ticket sales benefit pregnancy centers providing women abortion alternatives.

As NARAL writes:

The makers of the movie “October Baby” are donating a portion of their profits to a network of anti-choice groups. These groups – known as “crisis pregnancy centers” – are anti-choice operations that pose as abortion clinics. . . .

[ . . . ]

Dave Andrusko of National Right to Life responds to the attacks:

It’s no secret that pro-abortionists are thugs and hypocrites who will do most anything to shut down Crisis Pregnancy Centers (CPCs) and stifle free speech at every turn. Not satisfied with shoveling in state and federal money by the truckload, they work overtime to make sure not a dime—directly or indirectly—goes to CPCs. All this, of course, in the phony-baloney guise of making sure women receive “accurate information”—this from the same folks who will go to ANY length to kill informed consent legislation.

So, what do you do if you have zero tolerance for anything or anybody that might make women think about having an abortion? Or help them to care for their baby if they choose life? Resort to coercion, of course, under the pretense of furthering “truth.”

The title of the piece is “Connecting the Dots on ‘October Baby’ and CPCs,” and it appears on NARAL’s “Blog for Choice.” (Yes, I get the irony of pro-censorship types flying under the flag of “choice.”) You can read the anything-but-subtle threat at www.blogforchoice.com/archives/2012/04/connecting-the-1.html.

The logic (such as it is) is that familiar blend of bloated guilt-by-association paranoia mixed with the thrill of smothering the baby—in this case October Baby—in the media crib. The anticipation gives them goosebumps.

. . . and panicky.

In an article published last Saturday [Jan. 21] , Casey Martinson, a Planned Parenthood Director of Public Affairs, wrote:

". . . I’m sorry to say that the sky is falling on Roe v Wade. It’s been falling incrementally for the past four decades, and it fell further, faster, in 2011 than in any year before. According to the Guttmacher Institute, state legislatures passed 94 new laws restricting abortion in 2012. Not only is that a new record, but it shatters the previous record of 34 new laws passed in 2005 by a lot.

"Furthermore some of the restrictions that have been passed in recent years are actually in violation of the protections afforded by Roe v Wade, designed that way intentionally to seed a Supreme Court challenge to the 1973 decision. For example, Nebraska, Idaho, Oklahoma, and Kansas have all passed laws banning abortion after 20 weeks. Many more have tried. And if you look at who is sitting on the bench of our current Supreme Court, there are only three solidly pro-choice votes – the National Abortion Federation rates Justice Kennedy as “mixed” and Justice Sotomayor as “unknown.” The idea that Roe v Wade could be overturned is not Chicken Little."

Abortion-rights blogger Jill Filipovic writes “2011 was a really terrible year for abortion rights. Really, incredibly terrible.”

Planned Parenthood cried that “2011 was a rough year for choice.” (which we all know means abortion) and said, “It’s no secret 2011 has been a crazy year for us. The attacks on PP have been relentless…”

NARAL has the same outlook on the bleak future of abortions rights that Planned Parenthood does, publishing articles headlined “…Report Shows State-Level Attacks on Choice Skyrocketed in 2011; Analysis Shows 2012 Could Be Even Worse

LOL!!!

Awwwww, the meanies are putting restrictions on burning gestate babies alive with saline solution, and tearing living gestate babies into pieces, and boring a hole in the base of their skulls so a suction tube can be inserted to decerebrate them, *ALL* while they are still ALIVE and with NO palliatives.

Just think of all the fun they’ll miss sacrificing these little humans to their satanic deity made in their own likeness and image, the goddess of “choice”.

A lot of October babies are in the trash can behind Planned Parenthood offices.

It’s not anti-choice, it’s a different choice.
Don’t they believe in diversity?
