((School Superintendent SOT: Originally we took notice of this when there were 10. They are young white women. We understand some of them were together talking about becoming pregnant and that becoming a positive thing for them.))That's left people in this Massachusetts city wondering: What were they thinking?

The narrator and people being interviewed sound supprised for some odd reason. Apparently they're not familar with the concept of progressive stupidity. The problem isn't teen pregnancy, its teen stupidity. My solution: at age 16 privatly question and explicatly test each registered high school student of every state. If they are deemed 'stupid as fuck', send them to execution camps cleverly and ironicly disguised as orphan centers. I often ask myself why I am not running this nation.

It's not the "perfect storm" It's the nameless storm or the October Gale and I was there for it thank you very much and no one here thinks they're anymore important than anybody else. And I don't see any "wannabe gansgta's" With an apostrophe no less. Take some grammer lessons
