"Birth control is an inalienable right for Haitian women. "

What's the source of this inalienable right? The Haitian Constitution? The United Nations? God?

Haitian women, like everybody else, male and female, poor and rich, white and black, and no matter their nsationality or creed, have a right to Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness -- rights endowed by our Creator. All this stems from the fact that we are, or ought to be, self-governing. That's not just Birth Control. That's Self-Control.

Human cultures vary, but human nature does not vary in its essentials. All people who have adequate cognitive function and no gun to their heads, can control fertility by controlling fertile behavior.

NFP empowers couples to prevent, time, or achieve pregnancy via their own choice and their own behavior, by having sufficient information which cannot be taken away from them, and without the aid or the interference of anybody else on earth.

That's why it ought to be the normative method of family planning.

Haitian people have a right to Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness.

I decline to consider they have an unlimited right to my property, in order to shield them from their own inadequacies.
