Take care of the babies AFTER they are born.

Whenever the local fundies picket our local Planned Parenthood, I always go in and make a donation for them!

If you are against abortion, then don't have one.

3. I immediately thought the same thing. The 'Protect our Children' blurb is missing a LOT

It's an unfortunate choice of priorities on the creators part to have that, and only that, regarding the subject.

They also misspelled rifles.

The rest is pretty good though.

All of that 'other' stuff GAWD will take care of - it's up to 'good ole' Mericans' to make sure that somebody don't kill no 'whatever....'

5. The only not-so-good thing about this otherwise outstanding flyer is the typo.

Assault riffles should be assault rifles.

That's it though.

Then/Than confusion really sets me off. It’s such a shame. That and “riffles” destroys the credibility of these important messages. They should hire a proof reader or a professional copy editor.

Tell men to stop having unprotected sex unless they intend to be fathers and support their children until adulthood.

12. Although people CAN approve of all the above and still be against abortion as well.

Look abortion should be the LAST part of decision making regarding birth control.

Having a supportive environment where:

A) People are not molesting children and young women, giving them unwanted trauma and unwanted pregnancies.

B) People are not raping women causing trauma and unwanted pregnancies.

C) People are not attacking family planning centers so that couples can get birth control and PLAN their families.

D) Young women are taught to respect themselves and are given permission to say NO to sexual pressure.

E) Young men are taught to respect women and discipline themselves to NOT pressure their partners for sex.


Having a legal environment where rapists and pedophiles are caught, arrested and put away so they can not commit these crimes or maybe even castrated so they can't use rape to get them out of murder charges.

... it is a powerful and useful tool. Non native invasive plants are a real hammer on the
supportive capacity of a bio-diverse ecosystem.

Meet Kudzu. It can and will kill huge areas. No wood thrushes, no box turtles, no oak trees,
no bluebells, no monarchs, no wood peckers, no ....



One of the most important things we need to do is the removal of non native invasive plants. If you have something
that can take its place I'm all ears.



Japanese Bush Honeysuckle .... another terrible invasive plant.
