Occupying Afghanistan Does Nothing But Make America LESS Safe. Didn't we already have a so-called troop "surge" in Afghanistan? Well it obviously didn't work. Not with a million troops, not in a million years! ACT NOW! Human life is in danger!

Contact your U.S. representative and ask him/her to co-sponsor the Compound 1080 and M-44 Elimination Act, H.R. 4775. 20 representatives are needed. Compound 1080, a toxic poison, was outlawed in 1972 but was legalized by the EPA in the mid-80's.
