WHAT'S WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE???????

(sigh)

Honestly, I've decided that I should have lived a century ago rather than in this crazy time of "anything goes." I become more frustrated every day with how things are playing out in the good old USA, am increasingly appalled at the stupidity of the lawmakers and the general population.

In my local newspaper, there recently was an article about the health risks of tanning beds and how there are more than a dozen bills proposed in state legislatures around the country to deny teens access to them.

Excuse me, but we have states in this country that ALLOW BIRTH CONTROL PILLS TO BE DISPENSED TO GIRLS ELEVEN YEARS OLD, and many states PROVIDE BIRTH CONTROL SERVICES TO UNDERAGE GIRLS WHICH INCLUDES ACCESS TO ABORTIONS WITHOUT PARENTAL CONSENT!!!!! What's wrong with this picture, America??????????

Oh, I get it. Eleven-year-olds can get birth control pills, but if they forget to take them and get pregnant, they can head down to the local abortion clinic without the parents knowing, have the deed done and head home............bypassing the tanning salon since THAT'S gonna be prohibited!
