Abortion Propagandist Exposed

Posted by John Zmirak on July 08, 2008

An American film-maker funded by abortionists traipses around Latin America with a camera, pretending she’s doing a neutral documentary--but in fact making a partisan film designed to help restore U.S. taxpayer funding for abortion and sterilization. She tries to catch bishops and pro-lifers saying politically incorrect things that wouldn’t play well in the U.S. But one pro-lifer catches on, and confronts her on camera. (YouTube took down this video, until a whirlwind of protest brought it back.)

John:
Thanks for pointing to this video.
I have always wondered what motivates anybody to throw their conscience overboard and promote the killing of an unborn or “partially” born child other than greed? And I am wondering if there is really that much money in that business. We all know that the talk of “choice” and “saving mothers lives” etc. are just empty phrases (at least compared to the fate of the unborn). In our US society I cannot think of any case short of endangering the life of the mother, where the consequences of an unwanted pregnancy (at most 9 months of inconvenience) would outweigh the moral obligation towards the unborn life the woman carries. Are those that promote abortion not really furthering a much more sinister agenda?

I know it’s difficult to comprehend, Mr. Hoermann, but there are those of us who believe that our bodies belong to ourselves not your church or your state.  There are those of us who find pregnancy repulsive and children pointless. Can anyone explain to me why the human race must continue to exist? The Voluntary Human Extinction Movement must drive you mad.

Why Industrialisation does a much better job at reducing the population.

I know it’s difficult to comprehend, Mr. Hoermann, but there are those of us who believe that our bodies belong to ourselves not your church or your state.

The time to exercise control of your body is before you decide to spread your legs, not after.  Then it’s time to exercise control of your body, and that of the life inside you.

Abortionists are morally bankrupt.  I’m actually in favor of early term abortion being legal, but I don’t try to couch this view in warm and fuzzy lies.

I’m curious, do any abortionists actually carry through the logic of “my body, my choice?” I.e., your body, your choice...your responsibility?

When do abortionists start owning up to their own position and absolving men legal responsibility for the children who are the sole purview of their mothers?

There are those of us who find pregnancy repulsive and children pointless. Can anyone explain to me why the human race must continue to exist? The Voluntary Human Extinction Movement must drive you mad.

Okay, so you’re probably taking the piss, but I’d still like my questions answered by abortionists.

I’m not an abortionist.  Actually they are rather unnecessary.  Self-abortions are easy and safe if one know what they’re doing.  But what the hay…

You do know that (1) abortion is not limited to single women and that (2) even the best birth control, which is taking control fails. Your allusion to “spread your legs” is degrading and pornographic, but you’re hardly the first to use that term.  Mostly I hear it from self-righteous infertile women.

Since I don’t believe in “choice” I’m not the one to reply to that.  Those of us who believe in self-ownership and buy into “choice"--which is an ad agency term that reformers paid for-- were opposed to Roe and knew that as soon it came down, that the state would find ways to intervene in personal business.  We were right.  The state owns the female body. if and when the draft cms back it will own everybody’s

I don’t believe that men should be coerced into taking responsibility for their spawn. It would be nice but not mandatory. If a woman is dumb enough pop one out, then she should pay for it.

“The Voluntary Human Extinction Movement must drive you mad.”

Then, by all means, please expedite the process by one generation and off yourself, Marley.

You’ll also be doing us the service, much appreciated on our part, of ridding the comment section of your nonsense.

And? 

and that (2) even the best birth control, which is taking control fails.

You are aware that, even the best equipment can’t protect football players from on-field injuries.  Despite they’re best efforts, sometimes they just get tackled.

Your allusion to “spread your legs” is degrading and pornographic

I’m going to go way out on a limb here and guess you’ve got some odd priorities.

Since I don’t believe in “choice” I’m not the one to reply to that.

Semantics, given the following.

Those of us who believe in self-ownership

Abortion isn’t the place to start with self-ownership.

I don’t believe that men should be coerced into taking responsibility for their spawn.

But in the meantime, the illogical and immoral status quo serves your interests so I doubt you squawk about it much.  Btw, loved the tendentious way you avoided the obvious fact that if one has all the power, one has all the responsiblity as well (men’s responsibility); I notice you didn’t suggest a father’s right to veto or anything.

Marley:
I certainly do not want to infringe upon your right to find pregnancy repulsive and children pointless. The first course of action would be to avoid natural behavior that is designed to create children. If you want to the pleasures of the act but not the consequences, have yourself ”fixed” in a way that the pregnancy will not happen. And I agree with you wholeheartedly that your body belongs to you and not the state or the church. However, in this society, we all have a pact with each other, where we protect the weaker from violence and harm inflicted by the stronger, and I am sure you are not only a beneficiary of this policy, but also an ardent supporter. So I think that our differences come down to the simple fact that I consider the unborn child my equal, worthy of all the protections I claim for myself, while you see it as something beneath even an animal that is protected by anti-cruelty laws. This brings me back to my original question: What are the real goals of people, who promote this absolutely amoral and inhumane view and instill it in people like you? I am sure you did not get it from your parents.

I regret any pain this may cause some pain to writers here but…

It is entirely possible that Reinhardt is one hundred percent ethnic German. But from her looks I think not.

It is entirely possible that Dr. Morgentaler, recently feted for bringing abortion to Canada, is one hundred percent ethnic German, but I think not

How about Alan Guttmacher? Alum of Brandeis,

Somehow our ‘elder brothers in faith’ seem to be disproportionately involved in this nasty business.

Voluntary Human Extinction Movement?  How hopeless.  The future belongs to the procreative as Malcolm Muggeridge was wont to say.

“I know it’s difficult to comprehend, Mr. Hoermann, but there are those of us who believe that our bodies belong to ourselves not your church or your state.”

Of course I know it’s difficult to comprehend, Mr/Ms. Greiner, but the point of the post is this:

“PRETENDING she’s doing a neutral documentary--but in fact making a partisan film designed to HELP RESTORE U.S. TAXPAYER FUNDING for abortion and sterilization.”

Dishonesty, aimed at swiping people’s money to send overseas for causes they object to.

In other words, business as usual in America.

I admire Mr. Polo’s manliness in dispatching that Reinhardt skunk - he knew her works, called her on them, called her on her feminine guile, then sent her on her way.
