"Less Crunchy Techniques:" 2nd Planned Parenthood Video Drops

Three key things here:

1, the subject discusses the possibility of performing "less crunchy techniques" of extraction in order to secure whole first-trimester fetuses for parts. It should be noted that this discussion is hypothetical, as she's not actually doing that; she is open to it, however.

2, the subject thinks there is no difference between "crunchier" techniques and the less crunchy ones, and rolls her eyes at the silly protocol which says she cannot change the method of an abortion for tissue-recovery purposes. Having an opinion on the law isn't criminal or anything, but it does tend to suggest that throughout Planned Parenthood, this particular protocol is viewed as silly and perhaps easily discarded.

3, they continue talking about money, under the guise of discussing compensation, and say it's not payment (which would be illegal). But they continue negotiating price in exactly the same way that people discussing a payment do. Including the subject's demand that the interviewers state their price first -- after all, the one who opens her mouth first in a negotiation loses, right?
