SHIPPENSBURG, Pa. (CNN/Ewa Roman, WHP) — Vending machines at one university don’t just dispense soda and snacks, they sell the morning-after pill.

Shippensburg University in Pennsylvania is providing its students easy access to the pill. Students there can simply walk into a room inside the health center and get Plan B emergency contraception from a vending machine.

Ah, what the heck, I'll say it anyway...

The vending machines cost money.

Cold showers are free.

This is discriminatory.

Where’s the vending machine dispensing Viagra?

Equal rights!

My understanding is that this Pill is a massive dose of the ingredients of the regular birth control pill. Has anyone every read the warning page that comes with regular birth control? Not only is this plan B used one time an insult to the body, but many girls/women are using it multiple times each month. Will we see resulting Cancers? My guess is YES!

These women have been deceived or misinformed and think this is just another form of contraception.

There should be signs next to this “vending machine” telling the truth, that the medication being dispensed is an abortifacient and causes fetal death.

At least then they will be taking it with their eyes open.

So what is to stop a man from buying this abortifacient to force his girlfriend in private to poison their newly conceived baby? What is to stop a man from buying several doses of this abortifacient to poison his EX-girlfriend and her husband's nearly full-term baby? So much for a "women's choice."

Hmmm

I could be wrong but I’m pretty sure this is a tapayer funded state Univ so how many tax dollars are subsidizing this trash??

More violation of religious freedom brought to you be leftist Femi-zealots. Guess it’s no different than all of the tax dollars that subsidze PP and pay for abortions in PA through the state Medicaid program

If they cared about a fetus, they'd keep their legs crossed.

Sometimes a 'good' thing backfires. I have this vision of someone taking that pill one time too many and their body reacts. They have become immune to it. So now, instead of the pill killing the fetus, the fetus starts eating the host. munch much much ....burp!

Revenge of the Fetus!

Back before there was a morning after pill, doctors wanting to “help” a woman the morning after would tell them to take 2 birth control pills that day, and two the next.

Both that and the morning after pill make women VERY nauseated so they won’t want to be doing that each month. It also wouldn’t be 100% foolproof and I wonder what it would do to a baby that survived through it.

However, and let’s be real about this, in by FAR most cases, the morning after pill does NOT end a life. MOST times after intercourse, there is no conception.

People who want to fight this, you have to start earlier. Help young people resist sex even when it’s as easy as pie. Pie is easy. And pie is very hard to resist, if it’s good and you are very hungry. Help these young people, men and women, have ANY alternstative to hooking up instantly like little squirrels rutting on a branch. Our whole culture is focused on getting laid, catching a guy, etc. I don’t think a young man today would do anything but LAUGH at the suggestion to take a cold shower. Even on FR, it’s all about whether you’d hit it or not. In college almost all the girls have good bodies. Plus the guys sometimes don’t care anyway. Here’s a willing woman. I think that is where the problem lies. There is no shame for either in having sex. And its been this way for 40 years.

Putting this in a vending machine relegates it to the same status as a candy bar.

Don’t get me wrong, I believe this is awful, and I would withhold any donations to any alma mater that was doing this.

I guess it would be fruitless to lobby for such a “warning label”, because those who would put this type of product out there for such callous dispensing probably know exactly what it does and WANT to keep the women in the dark about exactly what’s happening with the drug.

Can you imagine the vending machine that provides a D&C?
