I don't get what's so bad about that scene. But then again, I don't get offended by the littlest things like most online people seem to.

I remember that episode and I don't really find it that offensive. They probably shouldn't have just thrown the word around,but I honestly didn't know that Planned Parenthood did abortions. Obviously I'm naive when it comes to that subject, but I've never had or wanted kids.
