Lila Rose V. Planned Parenthood
I’ve got to run to an all-day meeting. Watch the video – it’s UCLA student Lila Rose posing as a young teen pregnant by a mid-20s guy. Planned Parenthood tells her to lie to cover up what would be a rape charge.
Here’s the lenghthy LAT story on the subject, Antiabortion Movement Gets a New Twist. Excerpt:
The girl’s voice in the videotape is tiny and tentative. She is talking to a nursing aide in a Planned Parenthood clinic in Bloomington, Ind. The girl wants an abortion.The aide explains that the girl will need a parent’s consent because she is only 13.
The girl balks; she does not want to name the father.“Cause, I mean, he would be in really big trouble,” says the girl. Her boyfriend, she explains, is 31.
The aide drops her head into her hands.
“In the state of Indiana,” says the aide, “when anyone has had intercourse and they are age 13 or younger . . . it has to be reported to Child Protective Services.”
There is a 60-second gap in the tape, according to the running timer on the video. What happens next is meant to be explosive.
“OK,” says the aide, “I didn’t hear the age. I don’t want to know the age. It could be reported as rape. And that’s child abuse.”
“So if I just say I don’t know who the father was, but he’s one of the guys at school or something?” asks the girl.
“Right,” says the aide, who has just stepped into a carefully laid trap.
Good stuff from a brave young woman.
