Planned Parenthood increases security after shooting

Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo announced the new security measures, which included increased patrols at Planned Parenthood locations across the state on Friday and visits Monday the more than 60 Planned Parenthood clinics and locations throughout NY to assist with security and emergency planning measures. “Here in New Hampshire, Republicans on your executive council cut off funding to Planned Parenthood”.

“We have security protocols in place to ensure the safety of our staff and patients”, said Betty DeFazio, director of community affairs and public policy for Planned Parenthood of Central and Western New York. The suspect in the shooting was reported to have said “No more baby parts” upon being arrested, echoing comments from politicians who have accused the women’s health care provider of profiteering from the sale of fetal tissue.

Planned Parenthood’s Syracuse clinic is reviewing its security in the wake of a violent attack Friday on a Planned Parenthood clinic in Colorado. Planned Parenthood had already been on alert against threats of violence.

“I think it’s fair to have a legitimate, honest, debate about abortion”.

Dear described by neighbors as “weird” and a loner eventually surrendered and is in custody after the latest deadly United States rampage.

“We don’t yet know the full circumstances and motives behind this criminal action, and we don’t yet know if Planned Parenthood was in fact the target of this attack”, Planned Parenthood of the Rocky Mountains President Vicki Cowart said in a statement.

Planned Parenthood, which offers various women’s services including contraceptives and abortions, has 700 U.S. clinics and has been targeted before. “We’re trying to take a common sense approach to our security and not turn every single facility into a fortress”.
