Catering By Jill (Richmond, Virginia)
I am sorry that you are so un informed. I am an adoptive parent and not a supporter of abortion but believe that planned parenthood offers women more options than abortion. Constitutionally it is a womans right to seek those services, usually a last option of despartation not a birth control device as some simple minded boobs like you believe, planned parenthood helps woman not get pregnant in the first place. It offers woman and men the options that are available to them including adoption, in a thoughtful manner letting those people make their own choices. Hopefully contraception is the choosen form of birth control by most. Get a grip on your emotion and when you can offer an alternative I respectively request the you take your simple minded less than christianed spirited vile assertations and stick kindly up your pompus ass and spin.
PS. Next will you persecuting the blacks or the jews?
-- Jack B. Halpern, Catering By Jill (message to Life & Liberty Ministries)
LDI COMMENT: Hmmm, name-calling. Halpern states that Planned Parenthood gives its customers "the options that are available to them including adoption'." Yet Planned Parenthood admitted to surgically killing 264,943 not-yet-born human beings in 2005 alone (up 3.9 percent from 2004). In 2004, only 1,414 customers were referred to adoption agencies, but no referrals were noted in the group's 2005 Annual Report. In fact, the word "adoption" cannot be found anywhere in the Report. If a customer wants an abortion, Planned Parenthood will commit the act--for a price. If a customer wants to have the baby, she is referred to an organization willing to help her. Furthermore, Planned Parenthood's abortion referral rate is more than ten times that of other "family planning" offices.

I will not be threatened by scumbags like you. I will not stop supporting Planned Parenthood and if you threaten me with any kind of boycott action or publication of my name without my permission, I will sue your ever-loving pants off, you ignorant, slope-minded, caveman mentality, non-humanistic human beings. I will destroy you. Do not threaten me. You do not know who you're screwing with. You take your lowbrow, redneck, trashy letter--you leave your [answering] machines on 'cause you're afraid of talking to people, and you take my message, you chicken shit, afraid to speak to a person. Yeah, that's why you have machines 'cause you know that people don't like the lard likes of you. And yeah I do think that you're like the Ku Klux Klan or something like that. You take your personalities and you take your causes and you stuff them so far up your ass that the sun won't shine in there and maybe somebody can come do an abortion to get 'em out for you. But don't you ever threaten me again. You threaten me I will sue you until your [unintelligible] head falls off. You put me on your Boycott List. Let's play, bubba...I won't be threatened by redneck scum like you.
-- Jack B. Halpern, Catering By Jill (phone call to LDI)
LDI COMMENT: Hmmm, more name-calling. At least he's consistent, albeit in a bad way. Halpern wrote to LDI after receiving a letter from us requesting that Catering By Jill end its support of Planned Parenthood so it would not be added to The Boycott List, which he refers to as a "threat." LDI does not add a business to The Boycott List without first contacting the potential boycott target. Along with the letter requesting that funding of Planned Parenthood end, LDI sends information about the group. Our goal is not to boycott businesses; our goal is to end funding of Planned Parenthood. We much prefer that a business leader agree to make Planned Parenthood ineligible for future funding so we never have to publicly name the company. We believe it is only right to educate business leaders about Planned Parenthood in the event support was being given out of ignorance or a misunderstanding of the group's activities. In fact, many corporate leaders have told us they had no idea Planned Parenthood was involved in such horrific activities. (Recommended Resource: What's Wrong With Planned Parenthood?)
As for the answering machine, we do not have the resources to hire a receptionist. Moreover, even if we did have the resources doing so would be somewhat unwise since the vast majority of calls we receive are of a nature that they do not require a live answer. We return calls to people who require a personal response. Besides, if a person had answered the phone when Halpern called (shortly after midnight on a Sunday morning), he or she would have been subjected to Halpern's verbal abuse.
Two final thoughts: 1) We are, indeed, "non-humanistic human beings;" and 2) We have not killed any black human beings. Planned Parenthood has killed far more black human beings than the Ku Klux Klan. In fact, a racist would love to fund Planned Parenthood because the group is doing far more damage to the black community than any other entity throughout all of history. Now which group is like the Klan? (Recommended Resource: Black Genocide)
Citybikes Worker's Cooperative (Portland, Oregon)
Thank you for your letter of the 20th, in which you advised us that our company would be included on your boycott list if we continued to lend our support to Planned Parenthood. On behalf of my co-workers, we do appreciate the advance notice of your upcoming Boycott List.
We are a worker-owned cooperative. Our business decisions are made by consensus, including decisions on how we invest a portion of our annual profits back into the community. We proudly chose to support Planned Parenthood last year and will likely do so again should the opportunity arise in the future.
We await the updated edition of your Boycott List. Should you choose to include us, please be sure to list us by our official business name: Citybikes Workers' Cooperative.
-- Beth Hamon, Citibikes Workers' Cooperative (letter to LDI)
LDI COMMENT: Hamon chose to ignore all of the points made in our letter to the company.
Citybikes Worker's Cooperative (Portland, Oregon)
Thank you for yours of Nov 1st. Let me clarify our position for you:
1) We are proud to be on your boycott list.
2) We are even prouder of our support for Planned Parenthood.
3) We've been receiving your empty threats for years. Unless you're prepared to actually picket our shop, you might want to save the paper and remove us from your pathetic little list.
Your "boycott" hasn't hurt our business one bit. Meanwhile, we will continue to support the work of Planned Parenthood.
-- Beth Hamon, Citibikes Workers' Cooperative (postcard to LDI)
LDI COMMENT: Aren't numbers one and two basically the same? In any case, in number three, Hamon refers to a statement in letters sent to the company that "boycott targets may be subjected to picketing and other legal activities." First of all, the sentence clearly includes the word "may." There are many boycott targets. Frankly, Citibikes has not warranted being picketed--not yet, anyway. Furthermore, there is no way for Hamon to know how much business she has lost because of the boycott. Nevertheless, she continues to feign a position of strength and heroic defiance in her allegiance to those who kill.
Citybikes Worker's Cooperative (Portland, Oregon)
1. We will continue to support Planned Parenthood.
2. Your threats of picketing and boycotting are EMPTY and carry no meaning, as evidenced by our record sales and our location in one of the most progressive cities in the USA.
3. We are honored to be counted among those who you call enemies.
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!
-- Beth Hamon, Citibikes Workers' Cooperative (note to LDI)
LDI COMMENT: See above.
Coco Rouge (Chicago, Illinois)
Get fucked you all have rotten souls.
It is an unacceptable and unAmerican practice to try and bully people into your beliefs.
-- Erika Panther & Jeremy Brutzkus, Coco Rouge (letter to LDI)
LDI COMMENT: Well that's rather strange. We don't recall ever trying to bully anyone into believing anything.
Crush (Portland, Oregon)
Yes, teens are having SEX. get [sic] over it you IDIOT!!
LDI COMMENT: The owner of this business chose to express a viewpoint by scribbling messages across the letter and every piece of literature we had mailed to the company. The quotation above was scribbled across the letter. Printed across our brochure titled, "On The Record: The Philosophy of Planned Parenthood" was the following message:
I support them [Planned Parenthood] even MORE after reading this. THANK YOU!
LDI COMMENT: Written across literature that presented the most up-to-date statistics about Planned Parenthood:
here's [sic] your crap back.
-- unsigned, Crush LLC (scribbled messages sent to LDI)
LDI COMMENT: One point for the attempt at using sarcasm in a clever way, but minus ten points for the lack of an intelligent argument.
Ex Floreus (Lake Forest, Illinois)
Hi. My name is Kim Merlin. I own Ex Floreus. It's a company in Lake Forest, Illinois. My address is 760 North Western Avenue, Lake Forest, Illinois, and I just got your letter and I am proud to support Planned Parenthood and will continue to support them financially, physically, emotionally and spiritually. So you can take me off your crappy little mailing list and I hope that you tell every single person who calls that plan--that I support Planned Parenthood. Thank you so much.
-- Kim Merlin, Ex Floreus Inc. (phone call to LDI)
LDI COMMENT: Merlin seems to have an elementary predisposition toward sarcasm. In any case, we are happy to educate people about Merlin's support of an organization that kills children.
