North Carolina GOP Senate candidate says Planned Parenthood and pro-choice politicians are conspiring to murder newborns
Greg Brannon, an OBGYN in North Carolina, believes the reproductive health provider is scheming to kill infants

North Carolina GOP Senate candidate and OBGYN Greg Brannon believes that Planned Parenthood wants to legalize infanticide.
As Tim Murphy at
Mother Jones reports, the Republican frontrunner shared his theory at a November fundraiser for a chain of crisis pregnancy centers in his state:
Well how far will (it) go? Last year, February 29, 2012, the Journal of Ethics in Australia, they debated that. They said we already know abortion is fine, why stop in the womb? Why not three months after. Why should we end the responsibility at that point? It could happen in America. Floridas trying to do it right now and so is Georgia. Planned Parenthood. Because we allowed that slippery slope. Every human being deserves life, liberty, and property.
Brannon, it seems, is referring to an incident last year when a representative from the Florida Alliance of Planned Parenthood Affiliates was questioned at a committee hearing about how a Planned Parenthood physician would respond to a baby is born on a table as a result of a botched abortion. She replied that politicians should not legislate protocol in medical emergencies, and that, We believe that any decision thats made should be left up to the woman, her family, and the physician.
