Anti-Abortion Group Releases 2nd ‘Gendercide’ Video Showing Planned Parenthood’s Alleged Sex-Selection Abortion Assistance

On Tuesday, Live Action, a pro-life group based in San Jose, California, released the first part of its series on sex-selection abortion, the process of terminating pregnancies based on an unborn child’s gender. Part one of the “Gendercide: Sex Selection in America,” series showed a Planned Parenthood counselor in Austin, Texas, allegedly giving advice on how to obtain a gender-based abortion.
The second part, released this morning, allegedly showcases a similar conversation recorded at a NYC-based Planned Parenthood office earlier this year. In the undercover clip, an employee allegedly helps a woman (an actress brought in by Live Action) determine if her child is a female so that a requested sex-selective abortion can take place.
A description of the YouTube video, posted by Live Action, has more about the conversation that is sure to trouble pro-life activists:
In the video, Planned Parenthood social worker Randi Coun advises the woman on an early, definitive method to tell the gender of her child in the late first or early second trimester: “So if you were to have what’s called a CVS test, which is, do you know what that is?” she asks, referring to the genetic Chorionic Villus Sampling test. “It’s done between 11 and 13 weeks, so it is a test that you could do now.” CVS tests have a risk of miscarriage of about 1 in 100, which Coun did not mention, and are typically done to test for genetic disorders in a pregnancy.
Coun also reassures the woman that she can carry her pregnancy farther into term before her abortion. “An abortion at any stage up to 24 weeks is considered a safe procedure,” she asserts. ” It’s not that it’s unsafe, or that there’s a lot more risk involved, it‘s just there’s more steps involved and it’s just a little more complicated.” Planned Parenthood’s Margaret Sanger Center in New York City does abortions up to 24 weeks of pregnancy and is the organization’s national headquarters.
“I can tell you that here at Planned Parenthood we believe that it’s not up to us to decide what is a good or a bad reason for somebody to decide to terminate a pregnancy,” Coun adds concerning the woman’s request for a sex-selective abortion. Planned Parenthood CEO Cecile Richards yesterday opposed a ban on sex-selective abortions on the grounds that it would “limit [a woman's] choices as she makes personal medical decisions.”
Watch the undercover interaction, below:
As The Blaze previously reported, Planned Parenthood responded to the first video and condemned gender-based abortion — but the group declined to ban the procedure at its clinics. The U.S. House of Representatives will be voting on a potential sex-selection ban, which could carry prison terms of up to five years.

That way, they won’t have to have their baby sucked out of the womb.

Ever heard of ADOPTION! There are waiting lists in this country for babies and most families have to go overseas because America is too busy killing our future. I worked with a organization that counciled young women on avoiding abortion and set up direct adoptions. Parents wait years for a baby, why/ The number one reason given by young women why they chose to kill their babies over giving them to a loving home…vanity! “I don’t want to get fat”.

Posted on May 31, 2012 at 5:02pm@LLOYD DRAKO, you state “Walkabout: actually, a much smaller proportion than 1/3. And the vast majority of abortions, whether by PP or otherwise, thankfully, are performed before there even is a brain.”
The brain begins to develop at week 5. It is unfortunate that when we learn about sex ed in our school systems that they do not teach the truth about the developing child in the womb. There is a brain, it is just not “fully” developed, but the brain is there. Please see: http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/002398.htm. From my personal experience as a young adult I never really understood how quickly everything starts developing so I do understand your ignorance. Please do not take that the wrong way, I was ignorant as well. Thankfully I never had to be faced with an unplanned pregnancy during my ignorance or I would be very ashamed and regretful at this point in my life.
Although most abortions do occur before the 9th week of pregnancy when you truly understand the development of a fetus even at 9 weeks is is killing a baby. http://www.guttmacher.org/presentations/abort_slides.pdf
We live in a word today where women think that it is their “right” to abort a baby if they chose. It is their body, why should anyone tell them what to do with it. Well, there is the problem right there, it is a BABY inside your body. It is not a mole you don’t like or a hair you want removed. It is a life plain and simple NO MATTER WHAT GENDER THE BABY IS IT
Report Post »A Lynn
Posted on May 31, 2012 at 5:11pmone more thing about the “woman has the right to choice” Firstly, what about the choice of that child? I was a baby that was NOT aborted and given up for adoption. I am glad that my birth mother gave me the choice to live and make decisions for myself when I was unable to do so. Secondly, the right of choice is trivial because sure, we have the right to choose what food we eat, we have the right to choose what music we listen to, we have the right to choose a lot of thing but we do not have the right to choose to kill another person. IF you choose to murder you go to jail. No one has the right to choose to kill a baby.
We have become such a self entitled society that we think everything is within our rights. We live in a “It is my body, I should be able to do what I want to it” and although I DO agree with that…kill yourself, drug yourself, put holes in yourself….that is YOUR RIGHT but the decision to abort a baby is no longer about YOU it is about the baby inside of YOU.

The brain that appears at week 5 is not the brain to which Walkabout was referring, the one that is sucked out in late-term abortions. That’s why the decision to abort, if it is to be taken, ought to be taken as quickly as possible.
No, a baby is not like a mole or unwanted hair. We do indeed live in a society of entitlement and selfishness, but I do not think forcing women to have unwanted children, even if with the prospect of adoption, is a sound idea.
No, neither you nor I nor anybody else would be here having this discussion if our mothers had chosen abortion, but that is neither here nor there with regard to a woman’s right to have one.
There are, as you say, two lives involved, but one is actual and the other is potential. Very hard choices have to be made, and I do not see who is better qualified to make them than the pregnant woman herself.

Posted on May 31, 2012 at 8:18pm@LLOYD, I am glad we can agree on many things but the issue i have is that you state it is a “potential” life. Most people feel that when the heart starts beating that it IS a life, not a potential life. (I personally believe life begins at conception but we will leave that out of the argument) The heart starts beating about 5-6 weeks pregnant which is 3-4 weeks after conception. Generally in an unplanned pregnancy the woman will find out she is pregnant when she has her first missed period. At this point she is considered to be about 5 or 6 weeks pregnant and the heart is already beating.
I am not sure what your opinion on “when a life is a life” but a heart beat is pretty hard to deny that it IS a life at that point and not a “potential” life.

Your comment is simply untrue. I think it is a moot point though because EVEN IF they did not actually perform abortions they support them strongly. Read it from their own website if you do not believe me: http://www.plannedparenthood.org/health-topics/abortion/in-clinic-abortion-procedures-4359.asp
“Abortions are available at many Planned Parenthood health centers, clinics, and the offices of private health care providers. Use our health center locator to find the nearest Planned Parenthood health center that offers abortion services. If there is not a health center nearby that provides the abortion services you need, call your nearest center for a list of referrals.”
Also here are some statistics directly from planned parenthood: http://www.plannedparenthood.org/files/PPFA/PP_Services.pdf
In 2010 Planned Parenthood PERFORMED 329,445 abortions.
