TanyaFree.com Weekly Poll

Plan B One-Step, the most common morning-after pill will now be sold next to everyday drugstore items. The Obama administration has decided to ditch efforts to appeal the federal court ruling that the government must allow over-the-counter sales of Plan B to anyone, regardless of their age.
Pharmacists, in the past have had the ability to invoke a   "conscience clause," due to personal or religious beliefs to turn customers down, as long as they refer them to another pharmacist or to a nearby pharmacy. Conscience clauses have been in place since the morning-after pill hit the market in the late 1990s. The question now is whether to extend the option of a conscience clause to all drugstore employees.


What’s your take? Should drugstore employees be allowed to deny the sale of Plan B due to personal or religious objections?

In Her Own Words: Military Sexual Assault Survivor Speaks Out And Creates Change

If you ever doubt your voice could make a difference remember this name: Trina McDonald. WATCH:


 

Trina McDonald—who survived multiple sexual assaults while serving in the U.S. Navy—traveled to Washington, D.C., to deliver more than 215,000 signatures from her MoveOn.org petition and a CourageCampaign.org petition to Congress. Trina is calling on Congress to move the prosecution of military sexual assaults out of the chain of command. This change would make it safer for survivors like her to report their assaults.

Finders Keepers is what many of us would claim if we happened to find a large sum of money. Recently, a 10 year old boy found $10,000 in a drawer in a Kansas City, Mo. hotel. He and his father made the decision to turn in the money and report it to the hotel security guard who notified police.  No one has come forth yet to claim the cash, leading police to believe it may have been obtained through illicit means.


 How about you? What would you have done if you found $10,000 in a hotel room?

Can You Hear Me Now?

The Obama administration has been under the spotlight over the past couple of weeks,first due the admission that four American citizens have been killed overseas in secret drone strikes, then the Justice Department’s subpoena of Associated Press reporters’ phone logs and now revelations of secret surveillance of Americans phone and internet records. The President said that “Nobody is listening to your telephone calls,” and “They are not looking at people’s names, and they’re not looking at content. But by sifting through this so-called metadata, they may identify potential leads with respect to folks who might engage in terrorism”. 

What’s Your Take? How should we strike a balance between national security and the perceived erosion of personal privacy?
