As part of yesterday’s Martin Luther King Jr.’s day of observance, there was a group of protestors gathering to speak out against Planned Parenthood’s largest center opening soon in Houston. Part of the protest was about the abortion services provided by the organization, while the other side of the argument stated the group was targeting minorities (based on the location of the new facility.)

I have long teetered between the services Planned Parenthood provides. I think we should all be cognizant of “planning parenthood” and know that everyone is not. I did find it interesting that the protestors say the center is targeting minorities.

I think that no matter what ethnic group you belong to, you should be able to have access to full disclosure of information regarding your health care and the options available. Sort of like the site I saw providing disclosure of yaz side effects. There are lots of women using these types of pills. Full testing is difficult with birth control pills. And these kinds of pills are not always used to prevent pregnancies (some girls use them to control acne.) No matter the case, I think that side effects should be made known to people using any product, no matter the ethnic group, no matter the socioeconomic group, no matter the place they are in life. It is imperative in cases like this that people be able to make an informed decision.
