Campfield v LaLonde debate funds Choices, a pro-life center

I have no problem with people funding Choices, a pro-life "resource" center which claims to be a place to go when you would normally go to Planned Parenthood. I do have a problem with my money going to Choices. Unfortunately, in my haste to see a debate between Campfield and anyone over the IQ of -10, I paid $25 to an Indiegogo campaign to "support" this debate with former local radio host J. Lalonde.

Indiegogo flatly denies any hope of a refund. The refund is completely up to the organizers, but I doubt I'll get one.

Lalonde posted on his tumblr about how this was basically a compromise. And I get that -- politics is built on compromise. Compromise isn't easy. This is probably why I don't get into politics. I am not one to compromise my values. In this case I did, and I hate that.

Perhaps I'll just donate my time and 4x as much to Planned Parenthood. That way everyone wins! Except my kids, who like to eat.
