On one hand, babies are immunized and saved, on the other , African babies are aborted, fulfilling Planned Parenthood founder Margaret Sanger's vision of population control of unwanted minorities

Some of the wealthiest men in the world descend like avenging angels on the populations of the developing world," wrote Population Research Institute president Steven Mosher, a frequent critic of Gates and Buffett. "They seek to decimate their numbers, to foist upon vulnerable people abortion, sterilization and contraception."

I was discussing this with a pro choice professor who made a similar case that birth control and abortion are often pushed on minority and poor communities in and outside of the U.S. Can you say genocide??

It never ceases to amaze me when people make the absolute most mind-numbing, misconceived, ill-thought out comments.

First: of ALL the money that the Gates foundation and Buffet have already given, less than 1% was to Planned Parenthood. The rest went to education, medical programs (not sterilization/abortion/contraception).

Second: If all of the people who want to stop abortion really thought it out, they would do things differently.

To start, think things through. This means that you have to provide food, shelter, parenting education, education, job assistance, parenting assistance and child care for the new mothers.

Next you have to provide a means to feed, clothe, educate and teach the child of the new mother. You need to do this on YOUR dime not Gates'. It is after all your idea to stop the murder of minority children.

Let's then continue with an apology, and reparations to the women of Puerto Rico who were sterilized against their wills by the American government (1950’s). But remember that said reparations will come out of your tax dollars as well and not the current budget.

How is that you are more than willing to lie about what it is that the Gates Foundation does? Or is it that everyone else is either lying or deluded and only you and your like-minded jihadis see the truth?

If you wanted to really do some good, rather than simply impose your twisted morals and logic on others, you would:

1) Stop flapping your lips,

2) Put your money where your mouth is: start adopting kids from all of these third world countries and get every one of your cronies to do the same,

3) You would only make honest and accurate statements. You would demand that the current Republican Government accept the USA's guilt for what the then Republican Government did to The Puerto Ricans.

** Side note: The Tuskegee Syphilis experiments: lasted from @1932 to 1972. The victims still await a real and meaningful apology from the Government.

4) You would stop brow beating people and start trying to convince others of the rightness of being like you by you actions, not by misleading them.

What does the Gates Foundation have to do with population control, sterilization, abortion, etc? It's an education foundation to improve the public school system of America...

You sound like an anti-abortionist to the extreme. The Gates Foundation is a project developed by Bill and Melinda Gates, later joined by Warren Buffet to attempt to better the world in education and healthcare.

It's easy to argue a point when you rework facts to serve your purpose.

Planned Parenthood was not founded by Margaret Sanger. It was founded by Mary Ware Dennett.

The origins of Planned Parenthood are admittedly radical, as one might expect for its time, but its principal goal was NEVER to impose eugenics.

Reproductive rights were a highly controversial issue in the early 1900's. One might say that its opposition is equally radical today, as it is fighting standing laws and legislation based - not on scientific argument - but religious faith.

It's all a matter of perspective, is it not? It's important to have all the facts and be forthcoming in such discussions.

Here's what the Gates Foundation health mission is:

The foundation's global health mission is to help ensure that lifesaving advances in health are created and shared with those who need them most.

We focus on accelerating access to existing vaccines, drugs, and other tools to fight diseases that disproportionately affect developing countries, and we support research to discover new health solutions that are effective, affordable, and practical for use in poor countries.
