I am reaching out to you as someone profoundly invested in the respect and dignity of both the dead and the living. For me, this is a deeply personal issue and I urge you to stand with me in making cannibalism illegal globally, including the United States of America.

While most societies consider cannibalism taboo, it remains a gray area in legal terms in many countries. For instance, in the United States, no federal law explicitly prohibits it. However, the act often falls under other crimes such as murder or desecration of corpses.

Preserving the dignity of life, in death as much as in life, is a basic human right. In the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, Article 3, "Everyone has the right to life, liberty and security of person." This right should extend to protecting individuals from being cannibalized and our loved ones from desecration after passing.

Also, from a health perspective, it's important to understand the severe risks associated with cannibalism. Among other diseases, consuming human flesh can lead to transmission of prions, proteins that trigger incurable nervous system diseases such as Kuru (Source: WHO).

This is not just about legality but our collective humanity, decency, and respect for life and death. Please join me in seeking changes to the legal system globally and making cannibalism explicitly illegal. We need to act decisively and promptly to bring about this crucial change. Sign today, voice your support for a world where each person's life and death are equally respected and protected.
