I don't see anything political in that ad. It's soliciting private donations like Planned Parenthood should. Now if the ad were asking you to call your representative to urge them to support them with tax dollars that would be political.
Aren't those ads created based on your individual browsing/search activity, anyway?

Offended? Wow, a little touchy. It is a charitable organization, not a PAC or govt agency...

BINGO!!!
That is usually the case with this adds!!!
Offended, really, that offends you.?
Last time I checked this was a free site...
I believe ads are based in your viewing history. I don't believe Ryan controls what ads are placed.
Planned parenthood provides a lot of condoms locally and keeps many teenagers from having kids. They also provide birth control to women for low or no cost. My wife went with our niece. Her brother said that the pill would turn her into a ***** and if she wanted it that she would have to find away to get it herself. The shot was 6 dollars or the pill was free. In other news my niece now play softball because her period is now manageable. This was the reason she wanted it anyway.

Not really offended here, more disgusted and sad. It recieved large amounts of federal funds nor would not classify some of its actions charitable by any stretch.

Probably ought to close this one out real quick like. Note that signed in people don't see the ads at least I don't when signed in. Only at the top of the page when in the "Garage" section. And those ads are for tools.

I'm a member of POOP. People offended by offended people and you offend me. This is silly. Go out to the garage and do something useful.

I just logged out and checked, seems to be sorta 50/50. Some ads are obviously based on my history while others have nothing to do with it. Other sites the banner adverts seem 100% based on my viewing history.

Sometimes I feel like I am the only person in this country that doesn't get offended. I have way too much going on to waste time letting things bother me.

Correct. Ad placements aren't controlled by this site.

Yes, Google tracks your browsing across all sites you visit. So any site you visit that uses Google Adsense (which is most) it will continue to show you similar ads...
Either get an ad blocker for your browser and be done with it, or click on the "X" in the corner of the ad and you can choose not to see those types of ads any more... Done..
Carry on...

Actually, they are a PAC. That's what the "Planned Parenthood Action Fund" is. They get over 1/3 of their money from Federal Funding, they spent over $6.5 mil on political campaign donations in 2014 and received grants from the Obama administration to be used to promote Obamacare.
I don't care if they have an ad here, either...

Could be worse, it could be an autoplay video advert. Now those are offensive. Especially the ones with no pause or mute.
Log out and you'll see them.

I stand with Baby Killers! Nothing political at all, move along. Just don't post anything stating your approval or disapproval of the president.

Apply ADP to your chrome browser and the ads will disappear.
This.
All the ads I ever see, lately, are from Zoro and Jacks Small Engine Repair.
Go clean your cookies and see what pops up. And if you don't like being offended, change your web surfing habits.

Can't we all get along... I accept the intellectually challenged snowflakes... they will eventually melt... or remember to clear their browsing history before blaming someone else.

I'm not offended (takes a LOT to offend me), but I'd say PP is more religion-based than political, though the two most certainly overlap. I'm still soooooo glad neither are allowed here.

Here's my theory (joke):
It was actually a NRA ad, but the Russian hackers tweaked it just a bit!

It's a google adsense ad. I don't control what ad is displayed.
If you are offended by that.... uhh, sorry.
