<td class="snippet">Multiple studies show that increased contraceptive access, including better insurance coverage policies, over-the-counter availability, and comprehensive sex education, dramatically reduces rates of both unintended pregnancy and abortion. If antiabortion activists were truly interested in lowering abortion rates, they would champion such measures. Instead, they support measures that interfere with access.</td>

<td class="snippet">EXITING HATE IS similar to embracing it. It involves a search for place and purpose, born of personal need. A person doesn't necessarily exit because a veil lifts and they are suddenly able to see hate for what it is. They leave because it makes sense to them and for them. Corinna seemed to know this, writing once on a blog she kept as Axis Sally, "The reality is, people rarely change their personality or ideals during adulthood, and if they do, it needs to be something they do on their own, for themselves."</td>

No matter how widely they wander, nomads must be officially "domiciled" somewhere. Your state of residence is where you get vehicles registered and inspected, renew drivers' licenses, pay taxes, vote, serve on juries, sign up for health insurance (except for those on Medicare), and fulfill a litany of other responsibilities. And living nowhere, it turns out, means you can live anywhere you want, at least on paper.</td>

But the kind of debate where one shrieks insults at another, not to mention engages in physical violence and then denounces protest as an attack on speech, is not the relevant kind of public discourse that free speech rights are meant to protect.</td>
