Co-operate

Co-operate. The spelling is symbolic. The hyphen draws together the actors and the action. The co-operation of the entirety of a single human being is a lofty achievement. ~ DLH

I am pro-life...

I am pro-life. I support the rights of the already born. I support sex education at early stages of life because an educated child makes more responsible decisions about engaging in sex and having relationships. I support free birth control methods. It is a responsible decision for men and women to use it when engaging in sex. I support a woman's right to control her own body. She will decide when it is appropriate to engage in sex. Men already do this. What all this does is substantially reduce the number of women who need to seek abortions which is well on the way to achieving the goal of the pro-life movement, that is to eliminate abortion.

I am pro-life so I am against the death penalty. It serves no useful purpose except empty revenge for the bereaved.

I am pro-life so I am for universal health care and the social safety nets we extend to the people of our country in need through the tool of our government.

I am pro-life so I stand against sending our country's sons and daughters into expensive and pointless wars that exert control over freedoms in other countries.
