Children Depend on US!
Up until recently, only a handful of depraved Americans would have ever argued that an
individual's right to own anything was more sacred than the right to life itself - especially
that of our children.
Our Constitution features: "Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness." These were
considered unalienable rights to be given by God and protected by our new government.
The second amendment was an add-on, just like the other twenty-six. It was never meant
to be a guiding principle for our country or the foundation for a twenty billion dollar gun
industry.

Throughout our history, there have always been those who have looked the other way or
even rationalized the suffering of groups of people different than themselves. However,
when any agenda becomes more important than our most basic instinct to protect young
children, we've crossed a pathetic threshold. When our most precious citizens are
massacred and the best our elected leaders can do is political posturing, we're witnessing
the demise of our society. Mowing down young kids is only the tip of the iceberg, but if that
preventable horror can't stir us to action, what can?
Our survival demands genuine leaders who are more concerned with the safety and
welfare of all Americans, than with stirring up their base to get more votes and power. And
lest we not see it, guns are all about power, especially to those who feel powerless. No
single leader can fix very complex societal problems on their own. However, a true servant
of the people would be reaching across any aisle to develop policies that would decrease
this plague of violence. We need servants of the people, not disciples of the gun lobby and
the NRA.
Please elect leaders who prioritize the welfare of our children.
They Depend on US!
