– no exceptions! From LifeNews: The San Diego Unified Board of
Education voted unanimously Tuesday night to revise the policy without any
opposition or debate. Both pro-life and pro-abortion
advocates spoke out about the changes in interviews with 10 News. Leslie Brunolli said she
opposed the change because she had an abortion she now adamantly regrets and
doesn’t want young women to make the same mistake. “I wanted to finish college. I
wanted out of the situation and I had no idea that I would have any
ramifications at all, but I did,” she said of the abortion that took away 20
years of her life with regret and heartache until she sought help. “To be able to have them taken
out of school to have a medical procedure, I can’t believe it,” she said. “It
makes me angry.” But Vince Hall of Planned
Parenthood told the television station he supports the change. “Every day that the old policy
was in effect, every day that the old policy guided people who work in the
schools was a day that teens were really being put in danger,” he claimed. Marge Kleinsmith, who oversees
sex education for the school district, said the change was needed to conform
with state law. “Some school nurses and staff
have been allowing students to be released for these kinds of appointments —
could be for suicide counseling, could be for an STD test, could be for
pregnancy, could be for a lot of things – - because they knew state law said
they could,” Kleinsmith said. “Others have been strict about not letting
students do this. This gives us much-needed clarity.” Although More than
