Honorable Madams and Sirs, I ask you to stand and pledge your opposition to using violence to shape the future of the United States. I ask you to stand and pledge your opposition to the potential abuse of our service members. I ask you to stand and pledge your opposition to using violence to create homogeneity in our military. I ask you to stand and pledge your opposition to using violence against the citizens of our nation, regardless of creed, color, ability, sex, or gender. I must know your stance before I return to the ballot box in November. I will view a lack of reply as complacency and agreement with violent policies that threaten the safety and sanctity of our state and nation. Do you agree with using violence to train people in the military and to keep service members in line? Do you agree with using the military and violence to keep the citizens of the United States “safe” from each other? Finally, do you agree with violently breaking up families, deporting vulnerable people to hostile foreign nations, or relegating them to life imprisonment, servitude, or death because they came to our country for aid? Thank you for your time and attention.
