Greetings!

 

I am forwarding the below announcement of the new NO PORN PLEDGE with
the hope that you will take a mere 2 minutes to help out with the
anti-porn cause by signing it. The NO PORN PLEDGE was created by the
Anti-Porn Activist Network, and it only requires that you sign your
first name, your last initial, and your city, to help show the world
that there are indeed MANY people who do not use or support pornography.
Please just click on this link to go to the website and quickly sign:
http://www.nopornpledge.com/form.php Home page is here:
www.NoPornPledge.com.

 

What you are stating by signing is the following:

 

         *  I will not use pornography in any format (including
internet, video, magazines, strip clubs, escorts). 

*  I will not knowingly enter into any intimate relationship with a
person who uses pornography in any format. 

Thank you for helping out! Your taking the time to support the cause is
very much appreciated.

 

Jennifer :)

 

P.S. If you've already received this announcement from somewhere else, I
apologize for the duplication!
