Today I'll be going to Planned Parenthood.
Surprised? Don't be. It has to happen.
Today I'm going to stand up and fight for the rights of women.
A girl and her mother went into Planned Parenthood, the Tempe Planned Parenthood, right by the light rail and one of my favorite restaurants, Pita Jungle. Earlier, a young man, Tyler Kost had committed a despicable crime against the young girl-- rape. Her mother walked with her into the rather hidden corner clinic in order to have an abortion.
But can you guess what the Planned Parenthood counselor told the mother and her daughter?
The "counselor" told the mother and the young girl, the victim of rape, not to report the young man that violated her. Her reasoning? It would be "too much of a hassle." Tyler Kost (the rapist) went on to assault several other girls before finally being brought to the authorities. You can see his charges in the link below... but he has 27 charges against him. At least 27 times, he was able to scar girls.
Wait, wait, wait... not only is that a felony on Planned Parenthood for NOT reporting but-- aren't they the ones who are supposed to be focused on women's health and equality? Is this not terribly troubling?
Why, why on earth would anybody ever allow a rape to seem like a normal part of life? Why would another woman tell a young girl that it's not a big deal--and allow the perpetrator to continue on in his ways?
She might say, "It's just this one time, just this one girl." Well, that lines up with Planned Parenthood's philosophy I suppose, individuals do not have inherent worth, someone else must decide another's worth. Not only is there everything wrong with that but also-- what makes us believe this felony was only committed once?
The protection and safety of all women is the reason I am going to Planned Parenthood. There will be a press conference with Center for Arizona Policy, Alliance Defending Freedom, Susan B. Anthony List, and several other organizations who are fighting for the rights of those who cannot speak for themselves. Sign the petition & come stand with us.
As I've said in a previous post--I am a feminist. I believe that women are of great value, ought to be protected. The war on women is real. Just different than what they would like you to believe.
