You simply won't believe this statement
I just read in thte Detroit News. It's an articlwe about how Michigan is going to provide birth control to the poor. Some asshole said: "If a woman is uninsured and she can't afford birth control, she shouldn't have sex." Huh? Poor people shouldnt' screw? I guess they're already getting screwed by the govenrment enough as it is.

1. I propose minimum income levels for chastity belt removal.
Or better yet, just sterilize 'em.

13. That'll come back around.
Just you wait. We're not far from the point where wingnuts will be proposing programs to sterilize people they don't like.

4. If poor people can't afford air, they shouldn't be leeching our air!

5. I've heard people say
"people should wait until they're financially secure to have children." Even going so far as to think it should be mandated or something.

That attitude is SUCH a Catch-22, and more than a little offensive on the face of it.

20. bif, what do you think the whole "pro-life" movement is about?
It is about forcing their religious (Puritanical) beliefs onto society. No sex- to start with. Next comes music and art and so forth.

That is the goal here.
