WELL, JAYNE, IS THAT TRUE OR NOT?

By Tim Rohr

This morning, a friend sent the following:

Jayne Flores wrote an opinion piece on your analysis of the Epstein case.  She went off the rails.  Does she really believe you condone and agree with what Epstein was doing with young girls and women?  She obviously doesn't know you that well.  

Secondly, she can't see that you were mocking how loose our society has become with sex. . . You see it in movies, magazines, women wearing flimsy clothes, etc.  Epstein took advantage of this to make money and to share it with the girls he brought to his pleasure island.  They were all seemingly "happy" like those in Sodom and Gomorrah, till they got caught.  

Sure, the girls changed from "thanks for the money" to "I was abused" when they all got caught and shamed in public. Maybe some tried to resist and some were naive.  Who knows. . . and neither does Jayne Flores.  The trouble with people like Jayne, they're so arrogant and think they are so righteous they know best what'd good for Guam and society.  They can't see the truth through their "colored lenses."

. . . and what's happening to our society when people like her are in positions of authority and power and try to push a radical agenda, like abortion is okay.  She also believes selling or giving out free condoms to 18 year olds is okay.  That's opening a Pandora's Box.  Doesn't she know when we were teenagers, we tried to buy cigarettes or beer by asking older teens to buy those items for us?  Or we get fake ID's made to fool the store clerks?

+++++

There is only one thing not correct in the above message. Jayne Flores isn't "giving out free condoms to 18 year olds," she is pushing contraceptives to anyone of any age...some of whom are much younger than 18, not to mention the almost exclusive use of her office and our money to push "legal murder they call abortion" (to quote the Steel Pulse song "Wild Goose Chase").

I haven't read Jayne's piece and I'm not going to. Find it and read it if you want. I'll rely on the above summary because it's already an old story with Jayne and her militant abortion-loving friends, including the governor. 

Back to my Epstein piece, as I shared, it got me CANCELLED from the Guam Daily Post as a regular columnist for nearly two years. I sort of knew it might, but someone needed to tell the truth and that's what I do.

In fact, if you read my Epstein piece carefully there is not a single false statement. And, even though I was being ironic, the truth itself was ironic enough that I didn't need to stretch anything. 

Here were my key points:

1. The girls were paid sex-workers, not victims. As my friend point out above, the only became "victims" after the whole thing was outed.

2. In the context of who can have sex with who, age 18 means nothing given that the age of consent and even the marrying age can be much younger. 

3. We already tacitly condone minors having sex with whoever they want by pushing - as Jayne's office does - free contraception for all and even abortions in case those condoms and pills fail (which they do). 

4. Pedophilia is a sexual preference for prepubescent children, not the adolescents that Epstein and his clients preferred. 

5. Pedophilia is a convenient label to take the spotlight off the real issue: we live in a sex saturated culture and we are already okay with our 14 year-olds engaging in sex or we wouldn't be trying so hard to hand out contraceptives and abortions - as Jayne and her boss do.

In my Epstein piece, I called out Jayne and her office:

Here in Guam, as advertised on the website for the Bureau of Women’s Affairs, contraception is free at all public health facilities. Apparently there is no age limit. Hmmm. Kids can’t buy cigarettes until they’re 18, but can help themselves to condoms and birth control pills as soon as they’re tall enough to peer over the counter and say “Please Sir, I want some more.”

Well, Jayne, is that true or not?

The fact is that contraception and abortion, Jayne's two beloved step-children, go hand in hand with sex-trafficking. And, more than dirty old men like Jeffrey Epstein, government agencies like the one Jayne runs contribute more to the degradation, defilement, and destruction of the young, especially girls. 

Remember our own Blue House scandal a few years ago? It was functionally a sex-trafficking whore house. Some mamasan was bringing in Micronesian girls, confiscating their passports, and forcing the girls to have sex with the customers, most famously certain police officers. 

Well, in case you didn't know, sex with young women of child-bearing age can make young women child-bearing, so of course putting the girls on the pill, or the patch, or whatever, would have been requisite for mamasan's business. But, as the news exposed, some of those girls still got pregnant and they were hustled down to the abortuaries in Tamuning, which in those days were killing a baby a day.

Contraception and abortion isn't about the rights of females - as Jayne and her ilk would have us believe. It's about covering the tracks of dirty old men like the Jeffrey Esptein's or even, in the Blue House case, some of our own police officers. 

And apparently in Guam, sex-traffickers have no better friend than the Bureau of Women's Affairs, and the woman who runs it.

Note: The Blue House Case was back in the news this past January 2025

HORROR AT THE BLUE HOUSE AND BILL 52-31

We now know from news reports that the owner of the Blue House not only forced Chuukese women into prostitution, she also forced at least one woman to get an abortion when she became pregnant. 

An informed consent law like that proposed by Bills 54-30 and 52-31 would require a pregnant woman who arrives at an abortion clinic to be given information on the alternatives to abortion, a phone number to call for help, and a 24 hour waiting period. 

Had this woman been able to call for help the Blue House slave ring might have been discovered earlier. But there is no law, and there was no number.

During the debate over Bill 54-30, opponents of the bill argued that we had no business interfering with a woman’s choice, that abortion was a decision between a woman and her doctor. Obviously, this was not the case for the slaves of the Blue House.

In fact, this is not the case for many women. A 2004 study published in Medical Science Monitor showed that 64% of women who aborted felt pressured, and 65% showed symptoms of trauma. In fact, a 1998 report in the Journal of the American Medical Association disclosed that murder is the number one cause of death for pregnant women. 

The report Forced Abortion in America revealed also that post-abortive women have 31% more health complications, a 65% higher risk of clinical depression, a 3.5 times higher risk of death from all causes, and are 7 times more likely to commit suicide compared to women giving birth. Even the pro-abortion Guttmacher Institute reported that some 30 percent of women have an abortion because someone else, not the woman, wants it. 

While abortion continues to masquerade as a “women’s rights” issue, abortion is really all about men, and freeing men to use and abuse women without consequence - other than a quick trip to the abortion clinic with girlfriend in tow when there’s a slip up. 

Yet our lawmakers continue to lecture us about a woman’s right to choose and challenge legislation that would force abortionists to advise women of their real rights: the right to require the father to pay for her medical care and financially assist her in raising her child, the right to Medicaid benefits for maternal care if she qualifies, the right to know about alternatives to abortion including adoption, and the right to know of the psychological and physiological risks of abortion.

Do we really think that an abortionist is going to give a paying client the phone and tell her to call a crisis pregnancy center? or CPS so she learn about the availability of adoption? Also, many women who are harmed by abortion do not seek damages from the abortionist because they do not want their abortion to be known. Thus there is need for regulation like that proposed by Bill 52-31. 

Informed consent legislation was first authorized by the U.S. Supreme Court in Planned Parenthood v. Casey in 1992 and has been adopted by more than thirty states. After more than four years of trying, it is hoped that Guam lawmakers will finally see that there is nothing wrong and everything right with ensuring that women have all the information possible prior to an abortion so that their choice can be a true choice.

As of this writing, Senator Rodriguez is once again attempting to report out Bill 52-31 in the hopes of getting it passed before the end of the legislative term. We will be watching.

But back to the Blue House case. The Governor has rightly ordered a deeper investigation into a possible police cover up, but he should also order an investigation into the abortion(s) that may be connected to the case. 

Physicians are “mandated reporters”. They are required by law to report abuse or signs of trauma and they are trained to recognize it. It’s hard to imagine that a pregnant, frightened, enslaved Chuukese immigrant, forced into prostitution, and living under daily threats of abuse of every sort, didn’t raise a red flag the moment she walked into the abortionist’s office.

A PERSONAL NOTE: I am well aware of how hard it is to read about abortion. It’s tough to write about it. But as Fr. Frank Pavonne of Priests for Life says: “Where abortion is hidden, abortion is tolerated.” And it has been hidden much too long on Guam. We are at a crisis point. We are aborting one out of every ten pregnancies with the majority being Chamorro. With a waiting list of adoptive parents at Child Protective Services, let’s see what we as a community can do to at least let those mothers know that there are alternatives to abortion and lifelong regret. Let’s pass Bill 52-31.
