RALEIGH, North Carolina, October 28, 2015 (LifeSiteNews) – A bar is hosting a fundraiser for baby parts-trafficking Planned Parenthood with the theme “CHOPPED.”
An invitation poster on the bar's Facebook page featured a meat cleaver.
Both the theme, “CHOPPED,” and the meat cleaver have been taken down, but the original posting led to a flutter of tweets:
Twitter comments included:
“Wow…how sick can the fan base be.”
“Seems pretty fitting.”
“No shame! No remorse! Only makes it easier for us to protest them despite there propaganda!”
“That's just sick!”
The “CHOPPED” theme, sarcastically called “tasteful” by The Daily Caller, was intended to refer to a TV cooking contest in which the loser of each round is “chopped” from the show. The event features bartenders competing for the best cocktails.
The U.S. House of Representatives is investigating Planned Parenthood after The Center for Medical Progress released a series of videos that showed Planned Parenthood officials discussing pricing of aborted baby parts.
“I think a per-item thing works a little better, just because we can see how much we can get out of it,” one Planned Parenthood abortionist said.

The undercover videos reveal that Planned Parenthood engages in the practice of illegally modifying abortion procedures (“we deviate from our standard” protocol) to ensure “live” parts or even whole babies.
It is illegal to modify abortion procedures to obtain body parts, but intact aborted babies fetch higher fees.
In the undercover videos, unsuspecting Planned Parenthood abortionists talk about how best to “crush” a baby in the womb so as to harvest his or her desired organs. Planned Parenthood leaders talk about profiting from the sale of aborted babies, one saying she wants a good price because, in her words, “I want a Lamborghini.” Other videos show Planned Parenthood technicians dissecting a baby freshly pulled from his mother's womb.
At one point in one of the videos, the investigator adds up the “net” profit for Planned Parenthood from one baby's body parts, totaling $300, and the Planned Parenthood official is pleased.
A Planned Parenthood abortionist is shown discussing her practice of partial-birth abortion, a procedure made illegal under the George W. Bush presidency.
Another video shows a technician for the research company StemExpress, one of the companies that buys baby parts from Planned Parenthood, talking about a baby who came intact and alive. The technician saw the baby's heart beating, as another technician excitedly said, “This is a really good fetus, and it looks like we can procure a lot from it.”
It is illegal to profit from the sale of aborted babies.
Planned Parenthood explained that their baby parts trafficking is “a humanitarian undertaking” and that they charge only for expenses.
The Obama administration said the videos are “entirely inaccurate” but would not explain what inaccuracies the videos contain, nor how they would know the videos are “entirely inaccurate.”
White House secretary Josh Earnest finally admitted he was merely repeating Planned Parenthood's press statement.
Both StemExpress and Planned Parenthood have sought to stop the release of more undercover videos.
