Mona Davids, head of the NYC Parents Union has spoken out against Mayor Bloomberg’s birth control program for high schools in New York’s poorer neighborhoods. Increasingly, the school health centers are handing out the morning after pill to sexually active students. This year, 12,721 doses of Plan B have been handed out, as well as numerous other forms of birth control, including intrauterine devices. Says Ms. Davids, “I’m in shock. What gives the mayor the right to decide, without adequate notice, to give our children drugs that will impact their bodies and their psyches? He has purposely kept the public and parents in the dark with his agenda.”
NYC has spent 2.7 million dollars dispensing pills to the population which is least likely to use them as directed. 2117 Depo-Provera injections have been administered in 2012 alone to girls whose parents had inadequate or no notification. This drug is prominently associated with osteoporosis, particularly in teen users, because it blocks the usual bone deposition that occurs in those years of growth.
School officials refused to discuss this project with the New York Post, whose reporters found out through FOIA requests that Bloomberg’s birth control project is much larger than originally expected, expanding to 40 school based clinics.

Wasserman-Schultz: Minorities Need Government Assistance
Racist/Bigot alert:
“There is a reason that the Democratic Party is far more diverse than the Republican Party, because the natural home, politically on major issues to Hispanics, to women, to Jews, to Asian-Americans, the diverse spectrum — to African Americans.”
“The entire spectrum of diversity is comfortable in the Democratic Party because we stand up for the issues that matter to those communities and Republicans shun them.”
via Wasserman Schultz: “Natural Home” For Minorities Is Democratic Party | RealClearPolitics.
Translation: Minorities need the government assistance and population control methods that Democrats provide, using money that the U.S no longer has.
The success of the Democrat party overall has depended upon their misrepresentation of their activities and agenda. As more people turn off the leftist media, and become more attentive to the misdeeds of the government, Dems will lose their grip on power.
