2. And we need to teach our children about birth control in school.

The focus should be on preventing unwanted pregnancies.

The Republicans only prevention is absentence until marriage. They dont want to prevent unwanted pregnancies and they dont want termination.

But truly they do want abortions it benefits corporations. They talk all day about planned parenthood "selling" fetuses but dont talk about whose buying them.

One of the main customers big pharma and gmos.

It should be a womans choice what happens to her body. There should be safe medical procedures to help women do what is right for them. Planned Parenthood helps milions of women and children.

The republican rhetoric for its base has been the same since roe v wade. For a party that wants individual freedom they sure do try to strip plenty of freedoms from the people.

Republicans need to stay out of my bedroom out of my house out of my doctors office out of my garden and out of my way.
