Planned Frankenhood (Planned Parenthood nickname)

Planned Parenthood is an organization that provides reproductive health and maternal and child health services. “Planned Frankenhood” is an infrequent nickname for the organization that uses the name from the novel Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus. “Franken-” implies the same unorthodox biological science that created Dr. Frankenstein’s monster.
 
Other Planned Parenthood nicknames include “Banned Parenthood,” “Planned Barrenhood.” “Planned Butcherhood” and “Planned Predators.”
     
 
Wiipedia: Frankenstein
Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus, is a novel written by English author Mary Shelley about the young student of science Victor Frankenstein, who creates a grotesque but sentient creature in an unorthodox scientific experiment. Shelley started writing the story when she was eighteen, and the novel was published when she was twenty. The first edition was published anonymously in London in 1818. Shelley’s name appears on the second edition, published in France in 1823.

Wikipedia: Planned Parenthood
Planned Parenthood Federation of America (PPFA), commonly shortened to Planned Parenthood, is the U.S. affiliate of the International Planned Parenthood Federation (IPPF) and one of its larger members. PPFA is a non-profit organization providing reproductive health and maternal and child health services. The Planned Parenthood Action Fund, Inc. (PPAF) is a related organization which lobbies for pro-choice legislation, comprehensive sex education, and access to affordable health care in the United States. In recent years, Planned Parenthood has begun to move away from the pro-choice label to words and phrases that more accurately reflect the entire range of women’s health and economic issues.
 
Planned Parenthood is the largest U.S. provider of reproductive health services, including cancer screening, HIV screening and counseling, contraception, and abortion. Contraception accounts for 34% of PPFA’s total services and abortions account for 3%; PPFA conducts roughly 300,000 abortions each year, among 3 million people served.

Frankenhood selling body parts from aborted human babies. If Killary has her way Dems will be selling organs to raise campaign funds.
