Planned Parenthood's $2.4 million renovation includes better security

Planned Parenthood of South Central Michigan celebrated completion of a $2.4 million expansion and renovation project with an open house for invited guests. The project at the West Michigan Avenue facility in Kalamazoo was funded through a $4.6 million capital campaign that exceeded its goal by $100,000. Among upgrades to Kalamazoo's Planned Parenthood clinic is a new and enlarged waiting room. About $2.2 million was used to build a new, 7,600-square-foot facility in Battle Creek. Kalamazoo Gazette

Stopp Planned Parenthood notes that pictures of the renovated facility reveal three stained glass windows inscribed with the words Life, Choice and Hope. "How ironic that they proclaim 'Life' in the first panel, and 'Choice' – their code word for killing innocent babies – on the next. The last panel appears to signal arrival at a totally illogical conclusion: Killing little innocent preborn babies somehow leads to 'Hope.'"

Meanwhile, Alternatives Women's Care Center (which I believe is right across the street from this PP facility) struggles to pay off a balloon payment. They've been given an extension, but could have really used the extra $100,000 that PP didn't need.
