Pro-Lifers Flooded Social Media Sending a Message for Life to Planned Parenthood on its 100th Anniversary

By Rachel Alexander Published on October 18, 2016

The Stream is winding down its coverage of Planned Parenthood’s 100th anniversary with a roundup of the best social media posts about the anniversary andΒ The Stream‘s own #100forLife campaign against it.

Planned Parenthood and its supporters tweeted with #100YearsStrong, and many pro-lifers borrowed it to engage in some intense debates. One writer from Teen Vogue (where she ran an interview of Planned Parenthood CEO Cecile Richards) engaged us back. While some became a bit agitated, such as one Planned Parenthood supporter who said she would “slit her wrists” before voting for Republicans, for the most part the banter remained respectful.

 

Some pro-Planned Parenthood tweets and pro-life replies
Planned Parenthood: “We are celebrating #100YearsStrong and calling on you to upload videos wishing us a happy 100 year anniversary. Please DM us your videos!” (Did they mean videos of abortions?)

“We’re #100YearsStrong and loving every minute.” (Were the babies loving every minute?)
Planned Parenthood: “Health, passion, freedom, strength and care for 100 years.” (Oops they forgot “abortion.”)
Cosmopolitan tweeted: “8 people whose lives were saved by #PlannedParenthood.” (Versus 7,217,365 babies’ lives terminated?)
Cecile Richards: “We’re proud of our legacy, and we’re just getting started.” (Upping the number to billions and trillions of abortions?)
“I still smile remembering how much warmth and love I felt from every single PP employee.” (Where’s the warmth and love for the babies?)
“Proud to have donned the #PPFAΒ escort vest.” (How do you sleep at night?)
Planned Parenthood: “To celebrate being #100YearsStrong, we’re sharing your stories to #StopThePPStigma.” (Stories about having abortions?)
Planned Parenthood: “Planned Parenthood staff having a blast…” (Blasting fetuses?)
“I would slit my wrists before voting for this Republican party.” (We believe you, since youΒ strongly support terminatingΒ babies.)
“Just 3 days until Planned Parenthood turns #100YearsStrong! Get your party hat on! 🎉Β “
