Susan G. Komen and Planned Parenthood

For those who haven’t heard, Susan G. Komen stopped giving funding to Planned Parenthood. Planned Parenthood does provide breast exams and referrals for mammograms so this is a blow for them.

I have absolutely no opinion on this matter at all so I’m going to give my friends who are pro-choice the same advice as I give my pro-life friends with regard to Planned Parenthood: put your money where your mouth is. Just as I tell my pro-life friends to donate to crisis pregnancy centers and community health clinics to eliminate the need for Planned Parenthood, I’m going to tell my pro-choice friends that Planned Parenthood is already dealing with this situation and is asking for donations to continue breast care services. Donating to them is a proactive way to deal with the situation — kvetching about “those evil pro-life freaks” is not.
