Who's responsible?

Jamie Schield, co-chair of the Texas HIV/STD Prevention Planning Group, says one of the big reasons for the high rate of HIV, STDs, and unplanned pregnancies in Dallas County is that the County does not distribute free condoms. I disagree. The main reason for a high HIV, STD, and unplanned pregnancy rate is people having promiscuous sex. If they're too poor to go buy a pack of condoms, they should be concentrating on something besides lust!

Paris News funny for the day -- front page photo in yesterday's paper was of two children playing on a "jungle-jim." Do you think their proof readers work out at the jimnasium?

Yeah.... not concentrating on lust. THAT'S going to work. What a productive, problem-solving attitude! "It's their fault, they're poor and uneducated, so they deserve it!" Nice.

So, TimD, you don't think lust spreads stds, HIV, and other evils?
