#132: Bad Pro-Life Video Mocks Scarlett Johansson / Donald Trump's Pro-Life Views

TOPIC 1: Satirical Pro-Life Video Depicts Scarlett Johansson in KKK Robe for Promoting Planned Parenthood

The Life Report team discusses this question: assuming for sake of argument that PP is in fact a racist organization, is it wise for pro-lifers to make satirical videos like this? Why or why not?

TOPIC 2: Donald Trump's Pro-Life Views are Grounded in Irrelevance

Donald Trump, when he was running as an official GOP presidential candidate, explained his pro-life convictions this way to CBN:

"A friend of mine, his wife was pregnant, in this case married, and she was pregnant, and he was going to—they were going to—he didn't really want the baby. And he was telling me the story, he was crying as he was telling me. They ended up for some reason—amazingly, through luck, because they didn't have the right timing—he ends up having the baby. And the baby is the apple of his eye. He says it's the greatest thing that ever happened to him . . . And I am pro-life."

The Life Report team explains why this has got to be the worst attempt ever at grounding the view that abortion should be legal. We close by explaining how YOU could use stories like this to start conversations on abortion with pro-abortion-choice people.

@BenjaminWirtz What evidence are you referring to?

[BenjaminWirtz]

I doubt Trump's sincerity on his pro-life conviction I see that in a lot of Politicians they say whatever they think will get them votes.. Yes commercials satirizing the other side actually makes you look worse. I know it is not part of the biggest issue but they have still found evidence of planned Parenthood today being racist, but even so putting a KKK robe on a PP supporter is counter productive.
