Today, Live Action Films revealed an undercover Planned Parenthood video taken at the 5380 W. Fond du Lac Avenue , Milwaukee , location. In this video, the counselor can be seen and heard telling a woman who is reportedly 6 to 8 weeks pregnant that her developing baby has "no arms, no legs, no heart, no head, no brain." The counselor encourages abortion for economic reasons and downplays adoption.
"Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin is our state's number one abortion provider, both surgical and chemical. Planned Parenthood has proven they do not know, or they care to ignore, basic facts about human development," said Virginia Zignego, communications director of Pro-Life Wisconsin. "This is the third video showing Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin affiliates violating state law."
Wisconsin law requires women to receive medically accurate information before obtaining an abortion.
"As a sidewalk counselor at Milwaukee Planned Parenthoods, I have had post-abortion women fall apart in my arms, sobbing, immediately regretting their abortions. Nothing can prepare a woman for an abortion," said Peggy Hamill, state director of Pro-Life Wisconsin. "This new footage reconfirms that Planned Parenthood is not providing women with complete, accurate medical information about their developing baby, much less the after effects of the abortion 'procedure.'"
Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin Milwaukee received $1,064,574.28 in 2007 under Wisconsin 's Family Planning Waiver Program. Through this federal/state program, minors as young as 15 receive free birth control, without their parents' knowledge or consent. In total, Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin received more than $12 million in federal and state taxpayer funding last year.

Watching this video points out the validity and necessity of the Woman's Right to Know law passed in Oklahoma. It's important to a woman facing an elective surgery (abortion) to know what she is having removed from her body. When the reality sinks in that she is removing something with arms, legs, and a heartbeat, she is more likely to understand she is carrying a person. She is much less likely to abort. How heartless to lie about critical information like this as Planned Parenthood does in the video above. Kudos to Live Action Films for clearly demonstrating the necessity for this kind of legislation.
