The Uniform Anatomical Gift Act (UAGA or the Act) was passed in the US in 1968 and has since been revised in 1987 and in 2006. The Act sets a regulatory framework for the donation of organs, tissues, and other human body parts in the US. The UAGA helps regulate body donations to science, medicine, and education. The Act has been consulted in discussions about abortion , fetal tissue transplants , and Body Worlds , an anatomy exhibition. The 1968 UAGA set a legislative precedent for the donation of fetal organs and tissues and has been in the background of many debates regarding abortion and fetal tissue research.Everyone, here is the same story that was posted earlier.
According to the revised uniform anatomical gift act.which was created primarily to facilitate organ donation, aborted fetuses may be donated for research.This is just so sad for a variety of reasons, the first and foremost of which is the intentional killing of an unborn child. Prayers for all those involved in this (for the repose of the soul of the children, for the mothers - that they may have a conversion of heart, repent, heal, and be able to forgive themselves; and for the doctors/others involved that they may have a conversion of heart, repent and remove themselves from these evil practices and are able to move on from this (i.e. leave abortion ‘business’ altogether).
As a side note, I don’t know why but either that first thread was removed, or for some reason - maybe as I’m just not one who posts that often - I cannot see the original thread now.
gilliam,I am certain planned parenthood attorneys are right on top of this and scrutinizing the video for loopholes.Today, Governor Jindal announced he is directing the Louisiana Department of Health and Hospitals to launch an investigation into Planned Parenthood after reports surfaced alleging some Planned Parenthood affiliates are using partial birth abortions to sell fetal body parts.
A video surfaced showing a Planned Parenthood Federation of America senior director describing how some Planned Parenthood employees are actively engaging in illegal partial birth abortion procedures and attempting to conduct these abortions so that they leave body parts intact so that they can later be sold on the open market.
Governor Jindal said, “Today’s video of a Planned Parenthood official discussing the systematic harvesting and trafficking of human body parts is shocking and gruesome. This same organization is seeking to open an abortion clinic in New Orleans. I have instructed Louisiana’s Department of Health and Hospitals to conduct an immediate investigation into this alleged evil and illegal activity and to not issue any licenses until this investigation is complete. I am also asking the FBI to assist DHH in investigating this alleged criminal activity by this organization.”
They’ve used dead babies to generate power so it’s just another day, another dollar. (I forget if that was in the UK or Oregon).People who will kill babies certainly would have no problems selling for profit the bodies of their murder victims.
You mean after they swear up a storm and get totally smashed?gilliam,I am certain planned parenthood attorneys are right on top of this and scrutinizing the video for loopholes…
I dunno but attorneys can be pretty shrewd and many times it all comes down to an INTERPRETATION of the law. Donating aborted fetuses is legal according to the UAGA. She as much states in the beginning of the video that the providers have clients who wish to do this. It is probably a legal document.You mean after they swear up a storm and get totally smashed?![]()
“In health care, patients sometimes want to donate tissue to scientific research that can help lead to medical breakthroughs, such as treatments and cures for serious diseases," Eric Ferrero, the group’s vice president of communications, said in the statement.
I only watched the video once so I didn’t pay attention to the editing. Does it seem heavily edited to anybody? It didn’t seem to jump around that much to me and her statements taken in isolation are very damning even without context (I can’t imagine a context that would make what she is saying into something good or even neutral).“Women at Planned Parenthood who have abortions are no different. At several of our health centers, we help patients who want to donate tissue for scientific research, and we do this just like every other high-quality health care provider does – with full, appropriate consent from patients and under the highest ethical and legal standards,” Ferrero continued.
This is exactly as have posted numerous times. They are using the UAGA as a legal basis and the fee quoted is not very large. Anyone who has studied the organ donation laws knows about this provision.If anybody’s curious, here’s an carefully worded article from a liberal source.

Here is a bit of the statement from Planned Parenthood, pretty much what you would expect:
