Wisconsin May Ban Morning-After Pill on college campuses
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20050617/ap_on_he_me/contraception_ban;_ylt=AmYturiVeyZsUU7Wn8tZb3as0NUE;_ylu=X3oDMTA2MTQ3MTFjBHNlYwN0cw--

In one ironic coincidence, the ad photo I'm seeing on this page is of a MAN sitting in a doctor's office with a little patient gown on his lap.

MADISON, Wis. - The Wisconsin Assembly approved a ban on the so-called morning-after pill on state college campuses, a restriction that would be the first in the nation if approved.

The vote in the lower chamber late Thursday sends the bill to the state Senate; both are controlled by Republicans. Democratic Gov. Jim Doyle said he will veto the measure if it reaches his desk.

2. On college campuses???
Where most kids are over 18 (you know, adults? able to decide for themselves?)? :wtf:

I guess the Rethugs really do want to take us back to the 19th century and destroy women's control of their own bodies. This makes me sooo mad that I don't even have the words!!!

6. Yup -- old enough to join the military
but too young to have control of a uterus.

(Similar to the image on the page about the morning-after pill, oddly enough.)
