sign this petition please, this is disguisting and wrong

Women are also treated as property in many parts of the world.... They can be bought and sold.

It's definitely disgusting and wrong.

But to think signing this petition will change anything(deeply held cultural beliefs)... is delusional. This is merely ethnocentrism.

Isn't that what the UN is for? Another job well done. Now, a UN petition...that's the ticket!!

heh its a start you get no where turning the other way

Yes, bury them in paperwork. It has a great track record so far.

unfortuanatley its attitudes like that why we're in this position in the first place....argue with me all you want about it but you get no where bitching how the world should work, stop standing on the sidelines

It's the paper pushers who are standing on the sidelines bub. I deal in reality, not wishful thinking.

There is a UN resolution against N.Korea firing off a missile. Guess what N.Korea did...... fired off a missile. Guess what the UN did... they went back and passed another resolution. Starting to see a pattern? Pick a region, I'll show you the pattern.


Wake up.

ack, you remind me of my father god rest his soul, quick to point out the negatives and have no hope or ambition for the future, and i can pick regions all day and you can tell me how no one listens, guess what thats been going on since 1932, what type of reality do you deal in? enlighten me, or do you just sit on your couch and behind your monitor bitching about the worlds problems while saying you cant do nothing about it? if not please wake me up for me and elaborate, if not you might as well be one of the conservatives in congress to stuck in there ways and stubborn to make change, change doesnt start with obama or america or ending fuckin child marriages, it starts with you homie, anyway im done arguing a topic that i dont know how i got on the wrong end of, just trying to educate people on this specific topic, i have a child of my own and find it very wrong thats all, not syaing that by signing this we're gonna have world peace, feed every child and stop world poverty, i understand paper doesnt do much but once again id rather act then sit behind my monitor like its some type of pulpit telling other people to wake up when you have no idea in reality who i even am as a person...

It's about being a realist and not a wishful thinker. Hope for the best, but stay real and plan for the worst.

unfortuanatley your 100% right in that aspect, in a supposed ''free'' country that i (and im sure you) live in, it shouldnt be like that

No man is an island. No nation can be either. It's not us....it's them.
