UPDATE! We now have 1,046,105 signatures on our nation wide demand and I want to encourage your continual support in MOVING IT FORWARD. We've come a long way concerning this demand and this is no time to be "at ease" based on the signatures obtained. We need to be out there so our demand can be joined far and wide, creating A MOVEMENT that cannot be ignored. I've asked each of you to donate at $5 towards this effort and appreciate those who have done so. Do not make me "a beggar of signatures as well as donations". I know that I have "asked" and I know you've "heard" the requests. So a response not given is interpreted as lack of interest and concern. From the beginning of this fight, I have worked within the capacity I was given on my own dime, while virtually being ignored. Having succeeded in obtaining OVER ONE MILLION signatures, I refuse to maintain a position of begging.
The work I've shared that I've been doing, should be sufficent to convey to you my intentions concerning this demand. I'm not looking for "fans" when I post these things - I'm looking for SUPPORT by way of donations concerning it. I do not intend to mince words concerning this any longer, Or hope and pray "you'll come around and see the fight that I'm waging". I been "held in position" for a lack of resources and I refuse to seem ineffective for "lack of resources". If you don't understand the need then you don't understand the fight that needs to be waged. Nobody would spend the time and energy that I've spent on this demand, simply for the hell of it. I'm fully vested in this fight but where are those who are willing to invest in me, in the demand being made? Strong words ought be accompanied by "strong actions". I've talked enough! I need some "action" and I'm not seeing it from those who say they support the demand. Can they EXPECT US or NOT?
