Unplanned: a pro-life movie that we need to support

Yesterday the pro-life movie Unplanned was released in the United States. It's a film based on the true story of Abbey Johnson who was employed by Planned Parenthood but eventually came to support the pro-life view. Get ready for the abortion activists and groups along with the liberal MSM to criticize and trash the movie. We won't. We need to support it.

The film narrative is about the work Abbey Johnson; she was the youngest person to ever be a clinic director for Planned Parenthood. Her job was to sell abortion. She also promoted the work of the organization in other communities and for that she was given the Planned Parenthood Employee of the Year Award.
