The Destruction Of The American Family

Victoria Hardy
Iīve seen it stated over and again that there is a design, a plot, to destroy the American family. At first, I assumed it was just more paranoid ramblings of conspiracy theorists, despite the fact that evidence of shattered families is exposed daily, my mind still couldnīt conceive that it was scripted. Sometimes it is hard to discern if the decisions made in our country are simply about money or if there are hidden agendas and it is certainly hard for the average citizen to consider the motivations may be dark.

The messages in the world are highly confusing, backwards somehow, we have a war on drugs, yet millions are on behavior modifying prescriptions and every other ad on television and print media is about a drug. We have a war on terror, but suddenly our local, small town police officers are militarized, carrying tasers and discussing pain compliance. We introduced sex education in schools to teach our children how to abstain or protect themselves and now illegitimate births, abortions and STDs are at an all time high. And now I see our leaders are looking at a few more contradictory ideas to implement on we the people.

Senator Robert Menendez (D-NJ) has introduced S. 1375: Mom's Opportunity to Access Health, Education, Research, and Support for Postpartum Depression Act, otherwise known as The Melanie Blocker Stokes Mother's Act. This bill was named for a young pharmaceutical sales rep that took her life after undergoing courses of anti-depressant, anti-anxiety and anti-psychotic medicines for postpartum depression. She even underwent electro-shock therapy in her search to feel better after giving birth, but in the end, she jumped 12 stories to her death.
