I'm so glad to see that you're writing again! I wondered why I hadn't been able to find any recent stories or poems by you. Your work is just as beautiful and meaningful as ever! Congratulations!
I think of you often, always sending along my best wishes and hopes that you are doing well!
Hey there! This is about your thoughts regarding Roe vs. Wade, in that you support women's rights to choose for an abortion. I'm in agreement with you.
The other thing that scares me about Roe vs. Wade being stricken down is that this also opens the unfortunate legal loophole for more capital punishment against women.
Let's say that a woman is being charged for assault. If she happens to be pregnant too, a prosecutor can use that against her by stating she placed her baby in danger. Without Roe vs. Wade's fine print, that unborn baby could count as a legal minor (depending on the state). That can be done regardless of whether she is found guilty or not. Imagine a scared and innocent woman defending herself against an abusive partner, but there is just enough circumstantial evidence to incriminate her anyway. Not only does she have the assault charge, it could count violence against her unborn baby too. So she's put away for two violent charges instead of one. Nasty.
This is Nick Cuevas' old lady. He mentions you often and told me to look u up. Your writing captures my interest. You must be intelligent. Fine line between a genius and a lunatic. I guess, if I had to accept dedicating my life to incarceration, I'd let my soul fly by filling up with an extreme emotion and go all out by killing folks. Hard to say. Anyway. Good talk Nick says he loves you. I told him write you . You artwork much?
But you are a civil rights hero, Charles Douglas, you are. May God protect you, cover over you, and protect you from all evil. May Margaret Winter and Sherry Milliken Rest In Peace. May their quest for justice become an inspiration to all those who seek justice on behalf of others. Advocacy is a powerful witness and awesome testimony for the common good of all humankind. With every respect, John
