Recently a reader contacted the Maricopa County (Greater Phoenix Area) Supervisors regarding the article<\/a> we wrote about county tax money going to Comprehensive Sex Ed.\u00a0 None of the five supervisors<\/a> responded, instead they dumped it on Dr. Robert England, Maricopa County Director of Public Health.\u00a0 While Dr. England may or may not support Comprehensive Sex Ed, as of this writing the supervisors elected by the citizens have not taken ownership of their financial decisions.<\/p>\n

In Dr. England’s response he affirms, but\u00a0also tries\u00a0to distance himself from the Comprehensive Sex Ed agenda.\u00a0 Let’s breakdown his response.<\/p>\n

First Dr. England explains how and why Maricopa County chooses outside providers to teach sex ed.<\/p>\n

\"\"Touchstone, who is that?\u00a0 It appears it is a collection of behavioral health programs in Maricopa County.\u00a0 In fact, the website describes its pregnancy prevention programs<\/a>, especially in Maryvale.\u00a0 Maryvale is a minority community on the west side of Phoenix.\u00a0 As usual, the government targets those of color with strong family values.\u00a0 Even better, Siecus<\/a>, the federal government’s pro sex ed\/abortion curriculum standards\u00a0refers<\/a> to\u00a0Touchstone on its website.<\/p>\n

\"\"There is a reason Touchstone is pushing condom use, which in turn increases promiscuous behavior, STDs, and pregnancy.\u00a0 According to Dr. England, Maricopa County’s partner is using the “Draw the Line\/Respect the Line Curriculum<\/a>.”<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, Dr. England and the five County Supervisors either didn’t research this curriculum or simply didn’t care.<\/p>\n

The other curriculum mentioned in Dr. England’s response, “Making Proud Choices”, is also\u00a0developed by Planned Parenthood and funded in schools by Obamacare.\u00a0 It is so graphic some parents have gotten the program halted<\/a> in their districts.\u00a0 In Hawaii, State Representative Bob McDermott was quite surprised<\/a> at the content of Making Proud Choices, when he finally got to see it “under supervision.”\"\"<\/p>\n

Since Making Proud Choices normalizes homosexual behavior, does is fit in the boundaries of Arizona law which\u00a0does not allow teaching\u00a0homosexual relationships as normal?<\/p>\n

Our reader asked Dr. England why the LGBTQ community was targeted in the grant money.\u00a0 Here is his response:<\/p>\n

\"\"Dr. England makes no sense.\u00a0 If LGBTQ youth have a tendency towards risky behavior, why promote “safe” sex and condom use which increases risky behavior, and thus STDs?\u00a0 Why not abstinence only for these kids, also?<\/p>\n

Then there is his Planned Parenthood response:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Planned Parenthood may not be getting any money directly from Maricopa County’s grant, but they are sure getting business from the programs the\u00a0providers use\u00a0and on the other side when the girls become pregnant, get an STD, and want an abortion.\u00a0 Dr. England admits he doesn’t know whether Planned Parenthood is behind the healthy choices programs offered (what a sales job using the words “healthy choices”).\u00a0 Didn’t he check?\u00a0 Did he ask any questions?\u00a0 The Supervisors depend on his medical knowledge, but apparently he didn’t follow up.<\/p>\n

Taxpayers in Maricopa County, if any of this concerns you, please contact<\/a> your Supervisors.\u00a0 We do know that at a Maricopa County GOP meeting this month the Republican County Supervisors were given a round of applause for their great work.\u00a0 If you don’t think their work is so great, hold your applause and shoot them an email.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
