Having a Komen foundation affiliate give a grant to a PP clinic to conduct breast cancer screenings in a community where there is no other option for such a free screening is a far cry from saying DAII raises "money for a foundation that sponsers Planned Parenthood."

Why not listen to these women before you judge whether you would
want to support the Komen foundation. The first speaker worked for the
Komen foundation. She had breast cancer.

Yes Susan B Komen does support Planned parenthood.
Race for the Cure is just a part of Susan G Komen fundraising.

I used the word "support" - the original claim was that Komen was "sponsoring" Planned Parenthood, and was thusly sponsoring abortions.

That does not appear to be the case however.

Falla, how long are you going to support women and children being brutally raped, sodomized and. massacred with your 20% or so?

Shall I post links and pictures to this effect?

Thanks.

In a document on that page however, I did find a listing of the various national chapters of the Komen Foundation which sent money on to PP for Breast cancer screenings - no Houston, Texas nor Houston area chapters are listed as having done so.

DAII appears to not have sponsored any abortions with his gay little run thing.

They give money to PP NOT for abortions but because sometimes PP is the only way poor women in rural areas can get the free screenings

And yet, there are questions (from the St. Louis Archdiocese at least) about the controls that may or may not be in place over how the funds are used. Also of particular note - not all, perhaps even most Komen chapters send NO funds to Planned Parenthood whatsoever.

Hey. we're all adults here. Do what you will with what understanding you have.
I still couldn't contribute to this foundation. Especially after listening to the three
ladies on the video. If you're conscience allows it, go for it!
