OPINION:
The Planned Parenthood of Keystone in Pennsylvania, located in the town of Trexlertown, put up a tweet — and rapidly deleted it — that called for Disney movie makers to include a princess character who’s had an abortion.
It takes a twisted mind to go this low.
And the $1.3 trillion omnibus just passed by Republicans funded this vicious agency?
Despite the fact Republicans have vowed to defund Planned Parenthood — and President Donald Trump has agreed?
The tweet, from Planned Parenthood Keystone, @PPKeystone, went like this: “We need a disney princess who’s had an abortion We need a disney princess who’s pro-choice We need a disney princess who’s an undocumented immigrant We need a disney princess who’s actually a union worker. We need a disney princess who’s trans.”
Yes, let’s fill the little minds of the nation’s youngest and most vulnerable with dreams of abortion and a real hunger for progressive politics.
The tweet was removed within the hour. But not before Chet Cannon, @Chet_Cannon, grabbed a screen shot and media outlets jumped to report. Snopes, meanwhile, has soared to add its two verification cents and is currently investigating, whether the screenshots “of a purported Planned Parenthood tweet [that] circulated that appear to suggest a controversial idea for a Disney heroine” is genuine or fake. Talk about dancing around an issue.
For the last 13 or 14 hours or so, the site’s reported “Research in Progress.”
Let’s just save Snopes some time here and conclude — of course it’s real.
This is how Planned Parenthood thinks. Abortions aren’t just a right. They’re a way of life — a true free-thinking, independent’s woman’s way of dealing with something unwanted. Like birth control, only less regular.
And feeding that thought into the minds of the little girls — the 4-, 5-, 6-, 7-year-olds who worship the Disney princesses and dream of similar lifestyles is not a crime of abuse to Planned Parenthood, but rather a service to humanity.
It’s sick — it’s a sick person who would think to tweet such a thing.
But then again, the entirety of Planned Parenthood’s abortion mission is based on deranged thinking. Yet America still funds this group. For shame.
