Teach contraception, become a target

This is kind of scary. A teacher in a UK Catholic school had to contact the police after she received threatening letters from an anti-choice organization over her teaching contraception.

Diana Vernon, of Woldingham School, in Surrey, was sent hostile letters and e-mails by anti-abortionists attacking the move to teach girls aged 14 and 15.
Anti-abortion group UK LifeLeague said the school did not have to teach it.

Vernon said that “we make sure that the girls are aware of the options and then can leave here and make an informed moral choice for themselves.” Well there’s the problem! I guess no one told her that young women aren’t allowed to make decisions for themselves–that’s what old white men are for. Duh.
