Wild Fact About Me

My Philosophy

What Gives Me Hope

If I were Mayor, I'd make the world a better place by

Make a national registry for child abusers and murderers and for animal abusers, and disallow their access to children and animals. Make it national law that all sentences for severe child abuse and murder are life, without PAROLE. I'd address human trafficking in communities and on the internet by raising community awareness, training more national and state employees, and expanding national funding for enforcement. I'd crack down on websites operating in the U.S. the sell of facilitate the sale of trafficking victims, including those forced into pornography and strip clubs. I'd try to get more counseling services available to people struggling with mental illnesses. I'd make counseling free for all victims of rape, domestic violence, and child abuse (male or female). I'd make American cities "walkable" and people-friendly, and promote revitalization of pedestrian zones and development of town squares. I'd campaign for mandatory community service for all youth for every grade they are in school. I'd make recycling mandatory by law and install recycling stations around the nation.
