| Message | It is well documented that nations with no censorship have staggeringly lower sexual crime rates. If you want to endanger women in such manner, vote for this act. If you actually want your lovers, mothers, daughters and sisters to be safe, you will vote against. |

| Random quote: "In a sense we have come to our nation's capital to cash a cheque. When the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, they were signing a promissory note to which every American was to fall heir. This note was a promise that all men, yes, black men as well as white men, would be guaranteed the unalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." - Martin Luther King Jr. |
