Causes I endorse/care about.

[conuly]

1. Anti-infant-circumcision. This is *routine* circumcision, mind. If there's an actual medical reason behind it, I support it. I also will not comment if people do this for religious reasons, provided that this is actually part of their religion.

2. Breastfeeding. And I'm never having kids, so this one's a bit weird.

3. Linguistic rights. Primarily, the right to not be told "the way you speak is wrong". I understand the various reasons behind a need for a standard dialect, but please. Just say "this way is more appropriate for this situation". Forget that right and wrong nonsense. (Unless somebody is actually wrong. It does happen)

4. Anti-Bush. BUSH SUCKS.

5. Pro-reproductive rights.

6. Pro-equality-of-all-sorts (racial, sexual, sexualorientational, whatever, equal is good)

7. Anti-death-penalty. Especially when it's being called upon by people who claim to be "pro-life". Liars.

8. Pro-helping-people-out. Yeah, if you're so pro-life, you should want to support this life once it's born as well. Abortion rates *rose* during Bush's term.

9. Anti-war. I don't like killing people.

10. Pro-Dudley-Fic. *coughs*

11. Autistic Advocacy. Technically, this goes under number 6, but I thought I'd give it a special mention. *special mention*

Hm.... That may be it. Icky number, 11, but it'll do.

Laws that say you can't be sued for harming somebody while attempting to help them (these are good samaritan laws) are good.

Yes! My mum's a nurse here in the UK, and she has a policy of helping where she can but not giving out any information to anyone there to obviate the possibility of someone trying to sue her for her efforts to assist. The fact that she even has to have a stance on it is insane.

I'm glad you can't do that here. At least not really, but I'm sure some people will try/do that nonetheless.
