THINK I TOLD YOU ABOUT THIS - HERE'S THE OUTCOME.
Last week's Wednesday STOPP Report brought you the distressing news that Urban Outfitters was selling Planned Parenthood "Proper Attire" condoms on its website, and advertising them to young people as a "safe bet."
The condoms were in the "Toys and Novelties" section of the web catalog.
Only a day after we released the story and asked parents to contact Urban Outfitters and complain, the condoms were pulled from the website.
This protest is a case in point: Retailers should take notice that, if they choose to partner with Planned Parenthood or sell any of Planned Parenthood's products or services, there is a vast network of parents across the country who are ready and willing to protect their children from Planned Parenthood.
These parents want their teens to respect their sexuality and remain sexually abstinent until marriage, and want to do business with companies that support them in encouraging modesty and sexual abstinence until marriage. Parents want to know that they can allow their teens to browse a youth-oriented retailer's website without being exposed to Planned Parenthood's sexually oriented merchandise.
Thanks to all the parents and consumers who made contact with Urban Outfitters, and to the folks at Urban Outfitters who acted swiftly to stop the condom sales.

MAAFA
I don't know how many have purchased or viewed this revealing documentary about Black Genocide and how Planned Parenthood has targeted minorities throughout their "eugenics" oriented elimination of Negro and latino unborn babies.
You can do a search for MAAFA and find the website to order a copy. I did, received mine and viewed it and now plan to show it to my fellow parishioners.
It would be better if pastors would purchase a copy and show it in their school halls.

Parents Asked to Oppose Urban Outfitters Condom Sales
From ALL
Washington, D.C. (11 August 2010) – American Life League’s Stop Planned Parenthood project (STOPP) is mobilizing parents to counter Urban Outfitters Inc., the youth-oriented retailer selling Planned Parenthood’s “Proper Attire” condoms on its web site.
While condoms have an overall typical-use failure rate of 15 percent – with some studies reporting a failure rate as high as 36 percent for typical teen use – Planned Parenthood condoms scored at the very bottom in a February 2005 Consumer Reports study on condom effectiveness.
“By hawking Planned Parenthood’s condoms, Urban Outfitters has become part of the problem, not the solution,” said Rita Diller, STOPP’s national director. “The great majority of parents do not want a penny of their money going to an organization like Planned Parenthood, which works around the clock to undermine parental rights, sexualize children and protect their abusers.”
Billed as a “safe bet,” the item’s description in the Urban Outfitters online catalogue says, “Proceeds from Proper Attire condoms benefit advances in reproductive health.”
“Marketing condoms to young people and telling them it’s a safe bet is like giving them a revolver and inviting them to a rousing game of Russian roulette,” Diller said. “The only way to truly protect our youth from AIDS, other sexually transmitted diseases and out-of-wedlock pregnancy is to do everything in our power to encourage them to remain sexually abstinent until marriage.”
A recent CDC study shows that most never-married teens are sexually abstinent. Most of the teens said the number-one reason for abstaining is the fact that sex outside of marriage is against their religion or morality. The rise in numbers of sexually abstinent teens and the downturn in teen pregnancy rates coincide with the availability and popularity of abstinence education.
Parents are encouraged to explain to Urban Outfitters that, if the retailer continues to promote Planned Parenthood condoms, they will boycott its stores and products, and will let other parents know about the connection between Planned Parenthood and Urban Outfitters. Parents are also encouraged to tell Urban Outfitters that they do not want it marketing any sexually oriented products to their children.
You can call the Urban Outfitters corporate office at 800-959-8794 (toll-free) or 215-454-5500, or e-mail it at http://www.urbanoutfitters.com/urban/help/contactus.jsp.
American Life League was cofounded in 1979 by Judie Brown. It is the largest grassroots Catholic pro-life organization in the United States and is committed to the protection of all innocent human beings from the moment of creation to natural death.
