That's funny, but would have been more accurate of it to have said "I'm endorsing breathing provided it is regulated and government grows to support it!"

I went over to Canada and brought a toilet years ago when I remodeled the bathroom.  I told the U.S. Border guy that I went to over to purchase the toilet and it was in the back.  It was the fastest interview I have ever had.  One question and I was gone.   lol

I'm wondering if Planned Parenthood will be called upon to stop selling fetuses that they only crush the brain and drag out to preserve the other vital organs?
Hoaxers Fail to Nail Planned Parenthood in New Video

David Daleiden’s new undercover video shows a push to get a top doctor to alter how abortions are done—but she mocks the idea of turning a profit on fetal tissue.
It has only been one week since the last Planned Parenthood sting video was released but Center for Medical Progress founder David Daleiden is already back with a sequel. The first of many, apparently.

The first CMP video of a now year-old conversation among Daleiden, another CMP actor, and Planned Parenthood official Deborah Nucatola was edited to suggest that Planned Parenthood sells fetal body parts for profit, though the full footage revealed that Nucatola was actually discussing the legal practice of fetal-tissue donation and its associated processing costs.

This new video makes a similar claim. Allegedly filmed in February of this year, it shows CMP actors—including Daleiden—posing as a tissue-procurement company executive in a meeting with Mary Gatter, a Planned Parenthood medical director, at a restaurant. The video has been edited down to a roughly eight-minute runtime and full footage of the conversation had not been released as of 9:30 a.m. Tuesday.

...  since reporters aren't around anymore doing their jobs - it appears others have taken their place.

Actors, undercover people, reporters...   whatever you wish to call them - the telling issue is the responses they get from their questioning of the people selling dead baby parts!

Yeah like The Donald - we can't PC/ sugar coat what is going on - they are bartering for dead baby parts

Kind of makes you wonder if the Planned Parenthood organization is looking out for the female or more interested in selling baby parts huh.

I'm curious when the FBI will be showing up in Monroe...   there was a suicide in the Jail - and apparently they investigate those now?

The incident remains under investigation by members of the sheriff’s detective bureau.
http://www.monroenews.com/news/2015/jul/22/jail-inmate-found-hanging-cell-dies/

or is that another one of those "only if you are black" things...

The Texas Rangers, an investigative arm of the Texas Department of Public Safety, and the FBI are investigating. FBI spokeswoman Shauna Dunlap said the bureau is monitoring the investigation and once it's complete will review the evidence to determine if any federal laws were violated. The Waller County district attorney says the case is being examined as thoroughly as a murder investigation and will be turned over to a grand jury.

I see the FBI and media still haven't shown up to investigate the jail hanging here in Monroe...

but the media is trying to enter race into the suicide of a trouble young lady - who's own family left her in jail for 3 days!
http://dfw.cbslocal.com/2015/07/27/history-of-racial-tension-where-bland-died/

Imagine leaving your family member in jail for 3 days! - and then claim how special or loved she was...     although I'm sure they will profit now from her death as they will get an attorney and extort a settlement from the local government.

That happened in Texas...and she was from Illinois...so maybe that had something to do with with her 3 day stay.

Or maybe the bail was higher than her family could afford. (assuming she could even be bailed out since she wasn't from the area)

But leave it to the local grand dragon to point stuff out when it come to race.  8*

Wasn't aware that you can't get bail if you don't live in the community...
but from stories posted the bail was set at 5K - so she was eligible.

and as far as getting $500 for Bond if you can't afford the bail (usually 10%)...  out a family member - that's pretty sad if they couldn't scrape that up in a day... let alone 3.

and you'll note it wan't me - but CBS that is playing that race card - if you actually chose to read before spouting off on

What's sad is your assumption that just because YOU can afford $500...that everybody else can as well.

I don't know the first thing about bailing anyone out since I've never had to experience the process.

There's a good chance her family never had to do that either.

Let's face it...that cop never should've taken that traffic stop that far.

Throwing someone in jail for changing lanes without signaling is beyond reason.

As for the race card...there are plenty of stories about the tragic incident...but you seemed most attracted to the one about race.

No matter...it's just one of those personal issues you seem to have but I have my own issues to contend with so I'll refrain from throwing those stones.
