I came across this is little story today, it's not breaking news. I suspect that a member of the housekeeping staff knows something about the bomb threat that required the sweep for weapons.

QuoteAccording to police in Secaucus, the bomb threat — which later was determined to be bogus — was called in to Hudson Regional Hospital on July 18. During a search, bomb detection dogs led investigators to an unlocked office closet containing dozens of firearms.
Among the weapons were 11 handguns and 27 rifles or shotguns, according to police. The closet also contained a .45 caliber semi-automatic rifle with a high-capacity magazine that was determined to be an assault rifle, and a 14-round high-capacity handgun magazine.
The arrested the guy the next day.
What the heck do you think this guy was doing? It sounds very ominous that he was keeping those weapons there.

That doesn't appear fiscally responsible or morally sound, IMV.
Why wouldn't birth rates rise if women are denied access to abortion?
I don't know. I didn't say anything about decreased funding. Only a put loud thought of if the money that was going to abortions,can go somewhere else as some predict a increase in births because of abortion law changes.
I didn't say they would not.

Federal funding of PP does not, by law, go to pay for abortion services.

Yes you did suggest decreased funding for PP by suggesting that the PP monies should be used for something else... that's the consequence of your suggestion. I'm certain that your are aware that tax dollars do not fund abortions at PP... those tax dollars fund all of the important health care that they provide to poor and vulnerable Americans. That makes me wonder if you are intentionally misrepresenting those facts with your "loud thought".

Yes I suggested it go somewhere else. I didn't say where or how or even if it could.
I stated no facts or sources as I did not make any claims of facts.
How can I intentionally do something that I did not do?
I think you are making assumptions about me in regards to what you think my beliefs are. Associated with what you precieve as a conservative.

Well, you can THINK that I've made assumptions about you but, just like your belief that the article about Trump is unacceptably biased, you'd have to provide some evidence of those assumptions in these threads.
Logic dictates that if you take money from one pot and put it into another pot that you have decreased the money in one pot. That's simple reasoning.THAT was your "loud thought"... to take money from PP for support of children. It doesn't matter if you said how or if it's possible... that's what you suggested.

I'm always surprised when health professionals seek to discuss issues (like abortion) with authority while not knowing basic facts about the issue.

Yes. I said "I THINK". Did I say "I know"? Somewhat evidence do I need to provide when I didn't make a statmentnof fact. "Think" doesn't mean "know".
I suggested it, you gave your opinion. It

I was not saying anything g against Planned Parenthood. They provide many needed services other than abortion.
I just wondered if allocating the funds that would have gone to abortion,as some predict there will be more births because of the changes,that money can be put towards parents with children that were not aborted.
I have no idea how that would work.
