<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Well, then, all those poor teenage boys will have
to account for every wet dream---those geeky little killers! Serves them right,
since they didn't grow hair on their palms and all those other 1950's idiocies
we heard. And for sure, we need to arrest some politicians ASAP, especially
those touting "no birth control" because if they only have a few kids, they are
definitely outside the law!! Book 'em, Dano!</FONT></DIV>

<DIV>The Wilmington City Council has a message for men -- sperm are people,
too.</DIV>
<DIV>The council for Delaware's largest city passed a <A
href="http://www.wilmingtonde.gov/docs/1029/3641.pdf"
target=_hplink>resolution</A> by an 8-4 vote Thursday calling on the Delaware
legislature, other state legislatures and the U.S. Congress to pass laws
granting "personhood" rights to eggs and sperm. The resolution was authored by
councilwoman Loretta Walsh as a protest in the current battle over women's
health care access.</DIV>
<DIV>"[E]ach 'egg person' and each 'sperm person' should be deemed equal in
the eyes of the government and be subject to the same laws and regulations as
any other dependent minor and be protected against abuse, neglect or
abandonment by the parent or guardian," says the resolution. "[L]aws should be
enacted by all legislative bodies in the United States to promote equal
representation, and should potentially include laws in defense of
'personhood,' forbidding every man from destroying his semen."</DIV>
<DIV>The vote came the same day that the U.S. Senate <A
href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/03/01/blunt-amendment-vote-fails-senate-contraception_n_1313287.html"
target=_hplink>voted down an amendment</A> that would have given employers the
right to refuse any health care service to employees for moral reasons.</DIV>
<DIV>Walsh isn't the first lawmaker to introduce such a measure. <A
href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/02/10/oklahoma-senator-constance-johnson-satirical-amendment-ejaculation_n_1268768.html"
target=_hplink>Sen. Constance Johnson, a Democratic state senator from
Oklahoma, introduced and later withdrew an amendment</A> to a "personhood"
bill that would have given zygotes the same rights as adults. "However, any
action in which a man ejaculates or otherwise deposits semen anywhere but in a
woman's vagina shall be interpreted and construed as an action against an
unborn child," reads the amendment.</DIV><BR>

Rep. Stacey Newman Proposes Bill to Restrict Vasectomies</H1>

<DIV><SPAN>Well, well, well. The birth-control debate has finally come to our
swimsuit areas, gentlemen. Yesterday Missouri State Representative Stacey
Newman (D-St. Louis County) filed HB1853, which would only allow a man to have
a vasectomy when doing so would protect him from serious injury or prevent his
death.</SPAN><BR><SPAN></SPAN><BR><SPAN>Ah, the legislation's on the other set
of genitalia now. </SPAN><BR><SPAN>Rep. Newman -- whom I'd like to nominate
for Hero Squad right here and now -- has been frustrated with the recent
political debates over birth control access and reproductive health. The
legislation is her pointed way of combating the idea that family planning is
something only women have to worry about.</SPAN><BR><SPAN></SPAN><BR><SPAN>If
passed, HB1853 will insure that vasectomies will only be performed in medical
facilities licensed by the Department of Health and Senior Services, such as a
hospital, ambulatory surgery center or similarly designated health facility.
Vasectomies will be legal and safe, and the back-alley ballsnipper that so
many indigent men are forced to seek out when they want to get their junk
switched off will become a thing of the past. For too long, men have butchered
themselves using weed-whackers, small chainsaws and footballs to the groin so
that they could no longer father children they didn't want to be a father to.
HB1853 will bring us to a more enlightened
age.</SPAN><BR><SPAN></SPAN><BR><SPAN>Also, it could conceivably cause one of
those right-wing bible-fondlers who are so certain that they have the
authority to dictate what women can do with their bodies to choke on both
indignation and irony. Bitter, bitter irony. </SPAN></DIV>
