The evolution of #PlannedParenthood. From saying "abortion kills life after it has begun" to telling women abortion laws prevent treatment of ectopic pregnancy and miscarriage.

Planned Parenthood pamphlet from 1952
Dr. Alan Guttmacher, then president of Planned Parenthood said in 1968: “When an abortion is easily obtainable, contraception is neither actively nor diligently used.”
"if one of your friends is pregnant, ask her to let your child feel the baby move . . . a baby grows in a special place inside the mother, called the uterus."

The "pro-choice" lies have begun anew after the Dobbs Decision, trying to redefine what an abortion is to scare people into thinking pro-life laws prevent treatment for ectopic pregnancy or miscarriage/removal of a dead fetus.
It's hard to believe that medical doctors are actually misinterpreting abortion restrictions, which generally specifically exclude treatment for miscarriage or #ectopicpregnancy, to delay or prevent care in such cases.

PSA: Saying no one has the right to intentionally kill an innocent human being, even a prenatal one, does not mean I don't care about pregnant women.
Think about it this way: if Twin A from a set of conjoined twins wants to have separation surgery even though it's safe to stay conjoined and separation would certainly kill Twin B, it doesn't mean I don't care about Twin A if I want to prevent the surgery...
Yes, it's really hard going through life conjoined, but it doesn't justify killing your twin to be free of the burden.

So my #prolife friends who haven't read #TheHandmaidTale have a better idea about the slippery slope some people in the US think we're on after the #DobbsDecision, in the novel Serena Joy was a public figure who helped bring about a theocracy ruled by men, in which 1/5
homosexual and premarital sex were punishable by death, and women weren't allowed to read or write and couldn't have their own money so they'd be dependent on men. Because Serena and her husband haven't been able to have children, they are allowed a Handmaid, 2/5
a woman who has somehow "sinned" against the theocracy and is known to be fertile. The Handmaids are ritually raped by the men to whom they are assigned in order to get them pregnant as surrogates for the infertile wives. 3/5

Abortion activists are sharing photos of what appear to be blobs of tissue that they say are six-to-eight week #embryos. I have my doubts, as information on the internet indicates an #embryo is fairly developed by eight weeks. sciencephoto.com/media/493758/v…
true, an embryo is quite tiny, but even at 7 weeks, a lot can already be seen
Eight-week fetus from an ectopic pregnancy. (At the eight-week stage of development, an embryo is now medically considered to be a fetus).
