  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

The Planned Parenthood of Great Rivers will offer free medication abortions and vasectomies during the first two days of the Democratic National Convention (DNC).

The Great Rivers Planned Parenthood, which covers parts of Missouri and southern Illinois, will provide abortion pills and vasectomies at a mobile health clinic on Monday and Tuesday blocks away from the convention site in Chicago, exemplifying how abortion politics will dominate the Democratic convention this year, the New York Times reported Friday. According to the NYT, there is already a waitlist for free vasectomies.

Planned Parenthood of Great Rivers advertised the mobile health clinic on their Instagram and LinkedIn accounts, captioning the post: “Beep beep! Here we come, Chicago! Planned Parenthood’s mobile health clinic will be in the West Loop with Chicago Abortion Fund (@chicagoabortionfund) and The Wieners Circle (@wienerscircle) on Monday, August 19, and Tuesday, August 20, providing FREE vasectomies and medication abortion. Emergency contraception will also be available for free without an appointment.”

The DNC attendees, whether they are delegates or not, can access the medication abortions or vasectomies, according to the NYT. In addition to the mobile health clinic, physical Planned Parenthood locations near the convention will also be offering abortions and vasectomies.

Yes, a new low to promote abortions at a political convention. These are not the democrats of old but that is what many prefer. Sad too that GOP has compromised on this issue as well.

There is no indication that these groups are doing it at the DNC's invitation. They have chosen to do so as an advertisement.
Did any groups offer premiums or advertise outside of the RNC? Perhaps the NRA? Did Smith and Wesson provide bullets for participant goodie bags? I don't know, but if they did it would also be private activity unrelated to the convention.

And good advertisers know their market. These guys sure do.

Unrelated? If you say so.

It is horrifying to me, what is accepted as 'normal' behavior today in America.
We can no longer call ourselves a Christian nation.
And to me, that is very sad.

Remember, vasectomies don't cause abortions--they prevent them.
Remember, vasectomies are contrary to Catholic teaching - - faithful Catholics don’t promote them.

Remember, this is not a Catholic forum, and I don't "promote" anything. I respect the decisions my friends make, realizing that no one is sinless and faithful Catholics shouldn't "should on others."
Let's not derail the topic, which is about private and non-profit businesses setting up shop and advertising in the vicinity near Chicago's convention center.

I know this is not a Catholic forum. I was just reminding people about Catholic teaching on vasectomies.

As to you not promoting anything, if you say so.

And the topic is about doing particularly immoral things in conjunction with the Democratic Party convention.
