Description | For a $15 credit card charge, any woman or teenaged girl can order a T-shirt online from Planned Parenthood emblazoned with the words, "I Had An Abortion."
Jim Sedlak, executive director of American Life League's STOPP International said, "Planned Parenthood's new t-shirt confirms that the abortion chain lacks any sense of integrity, tact, and compassion. This shirt's message celebrates an act of violence that is traumatic for women, and worst of all, kills an innocent child."
Pro-life groups believe that this is just the latest attempt by Planned Parenthood to push its pro-abortion agenda.
"This latest stunt goes right along with the philosophies which have produced such items as a 'Choice On Earth' holiday card and a Florida advertisement which said, "Give the gift that stops giving ... a gift certificate for a holiday vasectomy at Planned Parenthood,'" said Sedlak.
News of the sale of the shirts brought widespread outrage from religious and pro-life groups.
"The day women are proud of killing their children is the day we wonder where we are as a society," says Kim Gordon, director of Iowa Right to Life.
