ERROR: Legislative Action Needed

Ideas, News, Take Action, Uncategorized — admin on January 12, 2010 at 9:49 am

You know when you get that pop-up on your computer screen… the one with the big “!” and reads “ERROR: bla bla bla”. This is one of those times for the abolitionist cause. Something is obviously not right and requires our attention IMMEDIATELY!

One of the many wonderful things about our nation is the opportunity to participate in the defining and refining of our government. We vote, we advocate, we share our ideas and opinions. As often said, we take for granted this process of democracy. This is especially evident when noting the tragic events that occur in other countries when an individual implores his or her right to speech and the governing process. Beatings, imprisonment, and sometimes execution are the frequent formal responses of governments who don’t afford the liberties we experience.

With that said, we at BRANDED are anticipating a busy Legislative session over the next six months. Currently, our priority is to secure the funding and staffing of the Phoenix Vice Squad that is being considered for budget cuts in the Phoenix City Council. If you’ve followed BRANDED at all over the past year, you understand the utter importance of these heros who fight to save children from sex slavery on the front lines, and lock up the predators that enslave them. Not only is the Phoenix Vice Squad essential for the combating of sex slavery that exists in the Phoenix Metro area, they also are national leaders for law enforcement on this issue. THEY are your tax dollars well spent.

The cause to eradicate child sex slavery would suffer an enormous set-back with de-resourcing of the Vice. We’ve come so far over the past 18 months, and it is time to ensure we can proceed along side these brave officers. Please consider sharing your feelings about the importance of the Phoenix Vice Squad with the following members of the Phoenix City Council, and signing this petition –> CLICK HERE

  1. Our Vice Officers are the front line offensieve in our war against child prostitution and human sex trafficking in Phoenix. We must not impede our ability to bring justice to our city by cutting this important aspect of law inforcement here. Please consider how we can continue to fund our Vice Squad. They are and will help us rescue countless innocent victims from the clutches of unjust oppression.

  2. I hope and pray that the Vice Squad will be able to continue and can be grown as funds to the city are available in the future. They do God’s work!

  3. There are many unnecessary budget cuts being push thru as “necessary.” Or worse yet, our Government states…”If you want it, we will increase your taxes to provide your cause…”
    This would be a tragedy if our Vice Squad turns out to be one of those unnecessary - necessities.
