Live Action has debuted their second video in The Rosa Acuna Project, designed to show how Planned Parenthood uses manipulative counseling and lies to push teenage girls into getting abortions. This video, which takes place in Milwaukee, WI, is horrifying.
The lies told by the counselor are flagrant and and reprehensible. A girl goes in wanting to get information and is given nothing but lies. And why? Because the Planned Parenthood counselor isn’t a counselor at all, but a salesperson with goods to sell. And those goods are the murders of unborn children, even if it is at the expense of a frightened, confused young girl looking to find help.
The counselor was told that the teen was between six and eight weeks pregnant. When asked if there is a baby, she is told that there is only “fetal matter… no arms, no legs, no heart, no head, no brains”. This is a blatant lie.
At six weeks, there is already a heartbeat and a head. Muscles and skeletal structure are beginning to form. At seven weeks, the arms and legs are beginning to form, and both hemispheres of the brain have become more developed. At eight weeks, the baby has fingers and toes. Nerve cells in the brain are starting to branch out and connect with each other.
But according to the Planned Parenthood counselor, all of this is non-existent. All that exists is “fetal matter”.
The counselor even goes so far as to try to talk the teen out of adoption, calling all of the aborted children “burdens”. The counselor clearly was making the case that, if not for abortion, we would have millions of unwanted children, presumably with no homes. Of course, as Live Action points out in the video, there are far more couples seeking babies to adopt than children who actually get adopted.
Like I said, Planned Parenthood doesn’t have counselors. They have salespeople. Notice how this woman uses a technique you might recognize if you’ve ever bought a vehicle from a dealership, ever. It’s the “buy it now, because this offer won’t be available tomorrow!” technique. The salesperson tries to rush you into doing it right away, because they know you’re less likely to make the deal if you wait until later. It’s awful when you consider that this is someone who is supposed to be helping girls make the best decision for them. They’re going to Planned Parenthood scared, confused, angry maybe… and they’re being manipulated and taken advantage of. Planned Parenthood receives millions in taxpayer funding, and yet they still operate on an abortion-first basis out of greed and bloodlust.
This is not only unethical. It’s illegal. As Live Action points out,
Wisconsin law requires women to receive medically accurate information before obtaining an abortion. The America Medical Association indicates in its Code of Ethics that “the physician’s obligation is to present the medical facts accurately to the patient.”
Lila Rose, UCLA student and president of Live Action, says the new footage further confirms the deceptive and manipulative practices of Planned Parenthood: “Planned Parenthood has an abortion-first mentality that is driven both by ideology and the desire for money,” says Rose. “Since women will often choose against abortion if they learn the scientific facts about the unborn child inside the womb, Planned Parenthood distorts basic facts in an attempt to perform more abortions.”
And this isn’t the first time Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin has shown a fondness towards breaking the law. Just last February they were caught in another of Live Action’s undercover stings covering up the sexual abuse of a minor.
I say this every time Live Action comes out with another of their undercover investigations of Planned Parenthood. This is an evil organization. They manipulate young girls, they peddle in eugenics, they cover up the sexual abuse of minors, and they do it all for blood and money, and all with taxpayer subsidies. Thank God for the work of Live Action and Lila Rose, for uncovering the evil and wickedness of this bloodthirsty organization.

Have a policy disagreement all you want, but when you start talking about PP in terms of good and evil, you’ve lost me.
PP provides invaluable services to women and men in rural and urban communities.
I saw this first on Hot Air, and wanted to thank you for your pro-life postings. My wonderful wife was born to a young woman who gave her up for adoption in 1960. Abortion was not legel, but this happened in San Diego where a back alley abortion could have been provided just across the border in Tijuana. I thank God daily (and several times a day whenever I read your blog) that her birth mother did not go across the border.
There are ALWAYS loving people who would adopt. My wife was only the first to be adopted in her family. Her older sister adopted 3 children as her husband could not father a child, due to scarlet fever as a child, and their oldest son adopted their first child after he and his wife tried to have a baby for several years.
I speak out abortion as often as I get the chance, mostly because I spent so many years in support of it. Some day I plan to put it into a book entitled “I Once Was Liberal, But Now I See; People and Their Journey From Left to Right.”
I’m so glad for young people such as yourself who have not spent their youth as “leftists.”
Thank you!!
Being pro-life, I’m grateful for things like the Rosa Acuna Project and Live Action for peeling back the shell surrounding Planned Abortionhood. This latest video makes me sick, as I live just outside Milwaukee. And Democrats, who support PP and the deaths of the unborn, call themselves the party that ‘cares’. There’s a word for that, starts with an ‘h’, ends with a ‘t’ and has 9 letters, and I won’t type it because this is a family blog.
I don’t think the choice of the term “fetal matter” is accidental. There is an obvious similarity to “fecal matter” which, despite being one letter/word/concept different, puts the idea of “unwanted waste” into the mind, even if just subconsciously.
Planned Parenthood also came out recently endorsing the “right” for people with HIV to not inform their sexual partners of it.
Just about everything they do is deplorable.
