These charges are nothing but feel good bullshit worthy of 3rd world dictatorships,

The police have used similar tactics when they get recorded,

and would you all be just as quick to want the same type of charges brought against someone secretly recording what happens inside a KKK, Neo Nazi or cult meeting, or a woman recording her boss sexually harassing her because you "will not tolerate the criminal recording of conversations."?

Even a Texas grand jury indicted them but it was conveniently thrown out because the GJ exceeded their authority. The whole episode was an attempt to smear PP, start to finish.

They didn't lie. They exposed Planned Parenthood's callousness and cruelty.

lol, you just can't quit stupid. I know it's difficult for the puppet to see the fingers working it's arms and mouth, but I encourage you to try.

You repeating a lie does not make it a truth.

The only thing exposed was the illegal lengths anti choice activists will go to in order to concoct a frame job.

You certainly can tell when leftists are in sacred cow defense mode.

And the repetition of "liar" doesn't make me a liar. Yes, horribly illegal lengths: videotaping people saying horrifying things. My God, what have we sunk to?

Obviously no one has ever used under-cover videos to bring policy issues to light. Never.

Illegal enough to be indicted for multiple counts by a grand jury in Texas of all places.

But hey in your mind whatever it takes right? Ends justify the means. I wonder what line you won't support someone crossing?

you probably still believe that Acorn was willing to fund some pimp's whore business, don't you? You guy's really like to swallow O'Keefe's sputum whenever he offers it up. :D

Ok you actually support secretly videotaping people without their consent.... that privacy rights should not be respected in America? Why this constant pressure from the right to attack freedom? Torture cells set up offshore, federal/ISP spying of internet usage, civil forfeiture laws, the war on drugs, attacks on the free press, etc.... is there no freedom other than gun ownership or forcing religion to be taught as science in public schools that a conservative can muster up any passion for?

The 10 most livable countries are all vastly more liberal

You should turn your filter off, you are seeing something no one else does.

Planned Parenthood Investigations Find No Fetal Tissue Sales

"The videos served as a major rallying point for Americans opposed to abortion. They fueled a threat to shut down the government as well as a push in several states to cut funding to Planned Parenthood.

They also inspired a wave of investigations. After the videos' release last summer, a number of states quickly decided to look into whether the tissue sale the videos purported to show was happening within their borders.

Despite all the worry, state investigations have yet to find any evidence that Planned Parenthood was selling or profiting off fetal tissue. Twelve states have completed investigations into Planned Parenthood following the videos' release, according to the organization."

As I recall from my Bible studies, "thou shalt not bear false witness" is one of the 10 commandments while abortion is not mentioned at all.

The trick is in the editing and context.

If you have a good editor, you can mix and match bits and pieces of conversation to make it look like anybody says anything. taking things out of context makes makes them meaningless.

You know that you can't confuse them with facts.

In all fairness in a simple minded manor anti choice advocates equate abortion to murder so it falls under "Thou shall not kill".

Splicing in scenes & commentary of a miscarried fetus as an aborted fetus aids the cause, obviously. Conservatives have been fed insincerity & lies for so long that they think it's a normal diet.

Thou shalt not commit murder comes before that one... in case you forgot.

But then, it's easy enough to get around that with a few logic loopholes and brainwashing... just consider it a "clump of cells" until the first breath outside the womb (or later) and it won't be murder anymore! Yaaaaay!
