"personhood" is coming to you
I'd been bitching about the ridiculous "personhood" amendment in Colorado for awihle. Thankfully, we soundly defeated it by voting against it with over 70% of the vote. ?Bad news. ?They haven't taken that as a sign to give up on the crazy.
"A new pro-life organization, Personhood USA, plans to assist local pro-life groups in different states to put personhood amendments on their states ballot by using the petition process.The?17 States that allow citizens to place constitutional amendments on ballots will be the target states. Personhood USA will also help with opinion petitions to encourage politicians to run personhood amendments in other states. During the Colorado Personhood campaign, organizers were contacted by individuals in many different states with excitement and the desire to start personhood efforts in their own state.?Praise Jesus! The pro-life tide is rising in America, now is the time for the entire pro-life movement to turn the focus off from permitting murder but attempting to ?regulate? it, to pushing for the recognition of the God given right to life for all innocent persons. Persons are humans beings from the moment of fertilization.? Cal Zastrow, Co-Founder of Personhood USA"
Re: "personhood" is coming to you
Ditto. Citizen-sponsored ballot measures sounds good in theory, but from my vantage point, it sucks rocks in practice.
Ditto.
Isn't legal gambling a typically "blue" idea? ?I've heard the fundies rail against it. ?Of course, it's pro-business, but it's also the legalizing of a vice which is a more liberal idea.
I guess my confusion as to which side normally wants it is possibly why I'm never sure if I approve or not.?
