Californication

On October 9th of this year, Govenor Jerry Brown signed into law AB499.  This law allows minors, as young as 12, to get preventative HPV vaccines without the consent of their parents.  Of course, this should be of no surprise in a state which allows for minors to have an abortion without the parents' consent or even notifying them of the procedure.

Yikes.

On the very same day that Govenor Brown signed this bill into law, he also ensured that another evil was eliminated.  On Sunday, he signed into law a measure that prevents teenagers from using an indoor tanning bed WITHOUT PARENTS' CONSENT.

So, let me get this straight.  It's ok to have an abortion without parents' consent, but the use of a tanning bed without consent is now illegal?

Can someone explain this absurdity to me?
