Please. Do not despair. Your help is needed.
Whatever gave you the idea that I am in desperation? Damn right I have powers, and rights, and responsibilities. I'm more vocal than most, to boot ;-)
I'd characterize my state of mind as generally clear, and seeing the absence of proper respect for the sanctity of life for what it is.
My bad (I'm probably reading too many of these threads)
Good to know we'll be in this fight together ;^)
