Komen, Race for the Cure and Abortion

It’s about the time for the Race for the Cure. It’s a fundraiser for the Susan G. Komen foundation. They fund research, screening and treatment of breast cancer.

Too bad that they also give money to Planned Parenthood which is the largest abortionist in the world.

And be sure that every dime that goes to Planned Parenthood frees up other monies so they can promote and fund more abortion.

If you want to see for yourself, Google “race for the cure” abortion. You will find out they indeed do fund Planned Parenthood and don’t plan to stop.

Here are a few of the links I came across in a quick search:

Abortion Breast Cancer

This is from Colorado Citizens For Life:

Since Breast Cancer Awareness month is coming up, we need to discuss the abortion-breast cancer  (ABC) link…and also talk about the abortion industry’s effort to conceal it.  Here are some key points:

All six of the criteria necessary to confirm a cause-and-effect relationship between abortion and breast cancer have been met.  (Eight medical organizations have now acknowledged this risk.)

The first study confirming the ABC link was published in 1957, 60+ years ago.  Since then, at least 72 epidemiological studies (those assessing disease trends in large populations) have been conducted around the world.  Eighty percent of them show abortion increases breast-cancer risk.

The only quantitative and comprehensive analysis of all the scientific literature on this subject found an overall 30% increased risk for post-abortion women.  A National Cancer Institute study, conducted in America by a pro-abortion researcher, revealed even more disturbing findings:  a 100% increased risk for those who’d aborted when they were under 18 or over 29…and an 800% increased risk for those with a family history of breast cancer who’d aborted as teenagers.

Now consider:  Planned Parenthood (PP) has done more than 3 million abortions since 1977.  In light of the ABC link, this means the nation’s largest abortion chain may be liable for another 22,500 deaths.

That’s why pro-life people are so upset that Komen/Race for the Cure officials around America have taken some $3,000,000 raised by well-meaning supporters…and given it to abortion businesses.  (For example, the Aspen affiliate is giving PP $22,947.  The Denver affiliate is sending grants to PP in Aurora, Ft. Collins, and Greeley and to another abortion facility, the Boulder Valley Women’s Health Center.)

Thanks for thinking,
