Apparently because she wrote a Mother's Day piece for PPA (planned parenthood of America), Judy Blume has started receiving masses of hate-mail from people who disagree with the things that PPA does, says and works for. Once again, whatever else a person may believe, they do NOT have the right to threaten and harm others over those beliefs. And yet, it still happens!!! In this country of ours, supposedly the most free country of the world, we still see extremists threatening others for their views and actions.
To show support for Judy Blume over her recent Mothers Day piece, and to let her know that there ARE folks who appreciate her and her work, go here: http://www.ppaction.org/campaign/supportjudy
Let her know that there are folks out there who support her and are grateful for her voice!
Have a Blessed Day!

I don't understand some people nowadays. It's all very well disagreeing - and even sending letters to say so - but threatening someone just because you disagree with them? *Shaking head* I just don't know what the world is coming to. There's no need for it, and yet we're seeing more and more of it happening.
So the Pro Life lobby sends out death threats. Isn't that a contradiction?
Hi there Miss Kati.
I know its been awhile since I have blogged, but I was missing all my blogger buddies!
I had no idea who Judy Blume was so I had to look it up. I see that she wrote that book Are You There God, It's me Margaret that I red in middle school. That book was quite popular and everyone was waiting to get it from the school library.
How awful! I don't understand why people send threats and hate mail.
