Oh! Okay. That makes sense.

The thing that pisses me off so much about pro-lifers in general is that they're all for the woman remaining pregnant and not killing the fetus but they're the first to demand cuts to welfare, planned parenthood, medicaid, wic, and anything else that might help that mother give her child a better life.

Ms. Kendall did what she had to do in a very difficult situation and anyone that would make threats or judge her clearly has no compassion or experience in the area. My heart goes out to her.

I haven't had a chance to read all of the cited articles, but I'm questioning whether I have the stomach to do so. Stanek doesn't seem to even TRY to provide "snips" that have ANYTHING to do with the accusations she makes before said screenshots. At first, I was concerned I missed something and reread it... It's like she says, "this is blue," but then shows yellow or pink. All I can do is assume that her publishing vehicles elect to not edit and/or fact check because they're marketing her name as brand association. doesn't... make...sense... I'm gonna stop trying before I give myself a headache.
