Most pro-lifers don't just talk smack, they do what they can to make a difference.
You know Wenchy, if PP were to just stick with education and preventing conception I wouldn't have too much problem with them; however, the fact that they readily perform abortions and hold back info on crimes that may be involved in the pregnancy, etc. makes it another issue. In addition, I do not like my tax dollars going to help them perform abortions either, I'd much rather my tax dollars go to education, counseling, vocational training, etc.
As Libby pointed out, Margaret Sanger was a racist and advocated negative eugenics. This is part of the ideology that PP was founded on and I think that should be taken into consideration before one praises her efforts.
