Canary in the Mine

Uganda's First Lady, Janet Museveni, has defended abstinence from pre-marital sex as the best way to protect young people from AIDS. "What is not practical about that?" she asked at a meeting of municipal leaders in Kampala. "Why should young people in colleges and universities run around with sex? What is the hurry? Why should we allow ourselves to listen to voices that lead us to death, and debate with those that save lives?" She decried abortion, pornography and sugar daddies who lure children into sex. She asked the mayors to purge the streets of pornographic material. (Note: the above article is only available by subscription.)
What a contrast between Uganda and New Zealand. Our "first lady" is aiding and abetting the perpetrators of all the above.
