"...it is a no brainer that those capable of reproducing be given the tools and information they require"

It just isn't that simple. As I pointed out earlier in this thread, while it is of course quite possible that passing out contraceptives/prophylactics to very young teenagers might have the desired effect, more especially for some individuals, it is also quite possible that it could in fact have the reverse effect for the age group in question.

This isn't the kind of issue where commonsense and guesswork can settle the question. It definitely isn't a "no brainer".
