A passionate discussion followed, with more than a few Twitter users describing physical sickness at the prospect of taking pride in the brutal business of killing unborn babies and harvesting their organs.

Others were outraged that their hard-earned money is being used to prop up the nation’s largest abortion facilitator.

The photo was reportedly taken at a Denver, Colo., facility after undercover video suggested the organization’s participation in highly controversial negotiations including the sale of aborted baby parts. Several critics referenced Scripture in predicting the future of such an organization announcing its pride.
