They're Gonna Do It Anyway

That's the mantra one usually hears whenever an opposing argument is raised about the prudence of teaching minors about "safe sex" and condoms (which, as recently confirmed by the Vatican, is an oxymoron). Of course, if there was any merit to the "they're gonna do it anyway" rationale, one has to wonder why in the world states like California continue to spend millions of dollars on making and showing teen-based anti-tobacco/cigarette ads. Just this week alone, I've seen two kids in their early teens, one of whom actually looked like he was 11 or 12, walking along the street and openly puffing away on their death sticks.
