On the recordSeptember 11, 1997
I did not go to med school. I went to law school. As such, I do not speak the language of medicine. I speak the language of logic. I have to tell my colleagues, the last few days have been a revelation here. Because if the way we reduce teen pregnancies is to deny access to contraceptives to teens who are already sexually active, and if the way that we reduce drug use and HIV infection is to deny needle exchange to people who are already addicted to intravenous drug use, then I have to believe that the way to stop fires already started is to deny homeowners access to fire trucks.
