San Francisco, Calif., Aug 8, 2005 / 22:00 pm
Christians and pro-life advocates are expressing shock and outrage today over an eight minute promotional movie, produced by the San Francisco area Planned Parenthood organization, which depicts violence against pro-lifers and abstinence educators.
The new animated feature, which appears on the website of Planned Parenthood Golden Gate, shows, among other scenes, a stuffy abstinence educator being drowned in a trash can, pro-life demonstrators outside of an abortion clinic being blown up, and one protestor being decapitated in the closing credits.
The promotional feature stars Dianisis, an animated, “superhero for choice”, who often repeats the catchphrase, “safe is sexy,” dispensing condoms and eliminating her enemies.
In a statement released yesterday, Jim Sedlak, director of STOPP, an anti-Planned Parenthood division of the American Life League said that, "In this post-9/11 era of terrorism, Planned Parenthood has recklessly crossed the line by promoting violence against people who do not share the organization's radical beliefs."
