A guest speaker at an assembly at Boulder High School in Colorado has told students as young as 14 to go have sex and use drugs, prompting school officials to say they will investigate.
The instructions came from Joel Becker, an associate clinical professor of psychology at the University of California at Los Angeles.
“I am going to encourage you to have sex and encourage you to use drugs appropriately,” Becker said during his appearance at the school as part of a recent panel sponsored by the University of Colorado’s Conference on World Affairs.
“Why I am going to take that position is because you are going to do it anyway,” he continued. “I think as a psychologist and health educator, it is more important to educate you in a direction that you might actually stick to. So, I am going to stay mostly on with the sex side because that is the area I know more about. I want to encourage you to all have healthy, sexual behavior.”

Okay, so this was our “Idiot of the Day” today. I don’t think it needs much explanation really. You wonder why our culture is going down the tube. I know I sound like an old man, the same type who was barking back in the 60’s and 70’s but I’m telling you this culture war is much more advanced than what started back then. We’re talking about the complete deterioration of the family. We’re talking about increases in sexually transmitted diseases, unwanted pregnancies, abortions, and a generation that is no longer shocked by warped views on sexuality and violence that are prevelant in the media and pop culture. Furthermore, it is no longer cool to say something is wrong, it’s all about feeling good, doesn’t matter what it is or whether or not it damages others or yourself in the long run.
If we’re going to turn this around more people are going to have to express outrage at these types of events when they happen.
