This is a universal feature of the left. See e.g. how Sweden is bashing Israel. The same Swedes bend over backwards to import fundamentalist Muslims from the Third World and silence the reports of such immigrants raping Swedish women and girls. Some say that a Daily Mail article was censored in Sweden because it criticized the policy of Sweden to accept the age of immigrants based on their words only and claimed that Alexandra Mezher's alleged killer is older than 15. To me, he seems to be in his mid-20s.Maya Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10877457709995369246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25206081.post-70779994961372779552016-02-23T04:03:29.195-08:002016-02-23T04:03:29.195-08:00In the light of Planned Parenthood's stance on...In the light of Planned Parenthood's stance on HIV, I am unfortunately not surprised that they are rogue against other abortion providers seen as competitors.<br />In my country, abortions are done in maternity hospitals together with births, gynecologic surgeries and diagnostic examinations. I think this is a good model; in it, abortions do not occupy a large share of the activity of any single doctor.<br />Maya Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10877457709995369246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25206081.post-25931701815137071562016-02-19T18:52:52.290-08:002016-02-19T18:52:52.290-08:00I'm making a third comment as each deals with ...I'm making a third comment as each deals with a different topic. I've noticed that in the U.S. the left tends to be very sympathetic to bad players and hostile to good people, including the victims. E.g. I pointed out to a leftist friend, an academic, that the leftwing intelligentsia seems very sympathetic to violent criminals once they're in court or prison, but is filled with unreasoning rage at the thought of law-abiding gun owners, and gets upset at reports of people engaging in legitimate self-defense. My friend agreed and said it does seems nearly universal.<br /><br />Similarly, when the death of Osama bin Laden was announced, I saw another lefty academic go apoplectic, attacking the U.S. government, and several others appearing to agree (although perhaps they were just intimidated!)<br /><br />This craziness is not innocent.Charles N.

And he died rather painfully. As far as am concerned, the partner is a murderer."<br /><br />I think that a prosecutor could indeed make a successful criminal case against someone who knowingly spread a fatal disease. I think it should happen.<br /><br />PP and ACLU are promoting something that ought to be criminal.Charles N.

This person has nothing but contempt for Planned Parenthood, and told me PP works to drive independent clinics out of business. PP observes when some provider enters an underserved area, allows them to fight the difficult battles unsupported, and then, if the clinic is a success, moves in, undercuts them, and drives them out of business. PP then provides what this person thinks is inferior and less caring service. Another abortion provider I happened to meet had a similarly negative opinion of PP, and I understand this is fairly common. Charles N.
