Open letter about the responsibility of today's men...

Open letter to "Bacon", a Return of Kings contributor:

I had the horrible misfortune of coming across the website called Return of Kings, and your post in particular titled, "How to convince a girl to get an abortion".  I'm guessing your name is in relation to implying that you are a pig. That would most definitely be appropriate.  I can only say that there is a special circle of hell for males like you, and those like you who write on this page. I will not give you the courtesy of calling you men. Women are referred to as cunts, hoes, sluts, and bitches. You all are a danger to other men who may follow you and your ilk, and a definite danger to women and their unborn children.

In one of your articles you talk about what alcoholic drink to ply a woman with to get her into bed. Do you not think of the legal ramifications of what could happen if that goes too far, and leads to pregnancy, or worse yet rape?  Oh that's right, that lovely article above will take care of that, right?   How about if the woman dies during the abortion, or if the baby survives the abortion?  Is their any responsibility then?

Great way to turn males into nothing more than serial sexual deviants, led by you!  Have you thought about a quirky article on how to talk their way out of a rape charge?  And how about those lovely STD's out there?  Do you give advice on what to do then? Should they just lop it off, and tell you thanks, because hey, it was fun at the time?

How many unborn babies will lose their lives because of what you posted?  How many women will be scarred for life, because she trusted that the person she was with would be a "MAN" and take care of his responsibilities?

Bacon, you have admitted to paying for the murder of two of your own children.  I pray that none of you others who write on this site have any children, and not because you paid to have it killed. However if you do have alive children, would you be ok with your sons treating a woman like what you so proudly push? Treating women like pieces of filth that are only good for your physical pleasure? Or how about your daughters?  How would you feel about some jerk treating your daughter like crap from the bottom of his shoe, then paying to kill your grandchild?  Would that make you feel like a good father?  Would that make you feel like a protector to your children? What good are you if the only way to feel better about yourselves is to condone this type of treatment to someone who has done nothing wrong, just had the misfortune of coming across your paths?  You are setting young men (especially college age) up for failure, not sexual heroes, known for their sexual prowess.

The only hope that I have is that it seems some of those that follow your page actually have morals and disagree with you.

You all are not men.  A real man will protect those whom he is putting into a vulnerable situation.  A real man will protect his unborn child, and the woman whom he impregnates, not drive her to the abortionist to pay to have his child murdered.  A real man will treat a woman the way they would want a young man to treat his own daughter.  A real man will teach his son to cherish her, and protect her, and not pit her against her child.

You are the nightmares that responsible parents should be warning their sons not to turn into, and make sure their daughters know how to avoid.

Sincerely,
Danielle Hollars

Open letter to the President of the United States

Mr. President Barack Obama,

As the leader of the free world I'm sure you are a very busy man, so I will try and make this brief.

I am a young mother of six beautiful children.  I am a Pro-Life wife, a devout Catholic, and an Army veteran.  I know you have very little respect for the opinions or values of pro-lifers like myself, and I'm sure that what I have to say will not move you in any way whatsoever towards the plight of the unborn.  However, since we still have free speech in America, I cannot stand by and say nothing.

For the first time in our history, a sitting president addressed Planned Parenthood.  I understand why you support an organization that makes its profit off of the murder of innocent babies.  They send you great sums of money for campaigns.  I am very disturbed by your "God Bless You" statement to them however.  God would never bless an organization that has been responsible for millions of deaths since Roe V. Wade.  You call yourself a Christian man, but support the wholesale slaughter of the weakest among us. I was dismayed by your statement to Planned Parenthood in 2008 stating that if your daughters became pregnant before they were ready, that you would view your grandchild as "punishment".  I became pregnant at 18 years old.  I was a scared Private still in Advanced Individual Training.  I was 19 when my daughter was born, and not once has my father called her punishment.  I have had 5 more children since then, and again no one in my family has called them punishment.

I noticed that you did not mention Kermit Gosnell in your speech, but he has carried out the very thing you supported while a Senator.  The Born Alive Infant Protection Act that would have protected the baby born alive from an abortion, you voted down, because it was the will of the mother that she wanted her baby dead.  I did not hear you give accolades to him, or others like him.  The horror of the Gosnell trial is happening many times over in this country, and yet you support an organization that recently admitted that it does not normally take measures to help a baby who survived an abortion attempt.

You have demonized those of us that believe a little baby has the RIGHT to see the light of day, the right to life, that punishing the baby is not the answer, and then tell us that we need to find common ground when it comes to abortion.  Mr. President, there is NO COMMON GROUND!!!  Your healthcare law will impugn the rights of the religious all over this country, and you have given us no respect to our faiths and beliefs.  Abortion is not healthcare!

You have supported an organization whose founder, Margaret Sanger, was an avowed racist and eugenicist.  An organization whose very focus was the depopulation of Black, Hispanic, poor, or disabled communities.  As the leader of our great nation you should want to help those mothers who feel driven to have an abortion, by telling them that they have help.  That there should be hope for their little baby, not death and destruction.

"If there is even one life we can save, we've got an obligation to try!"  Those were your words Mr. President when addressing gun violence.  Why do you berate and belittle those that feel the same way about the unborn?

You say God Bless You to them, but I hate to believe you mean that.  Jesus said, "Suffer the little children, and forbid them not to come to me: for the kingdom of heaven is for such." (Matthew 19:14).  That should be our guidance, not the blood money from abortions!  I will pray for you Mr. President, that your heart will be softened to the cries of the unborn, and that you will have compassion for the torn lives of their parents.



Sincerely,
Mrs. Danielle Denise Hollars

Women can do it by themselves...

This is what was said by Jennifer Aniston recently, when speaking about motherhood. News flash Jen: being a mother is more than how you conceive. She had a husband who wanted children; she didn't want them. He left. Her career was first. Now she's at the point where she feels she has no other choice but to do it alone. Boo freakin' hoo...

I have five children that eagerly await seeing their father when he comes home from work. There's usually a tug of war battle between my 13 year old and her younger siblings on who can get to daddy first. It's usually my 3 year old who squeezes in-between the other 3 children and gets to daddy first and claims her prize. Ah...sweet victory for Sarah. The baby is usually last only because he is then a permanent fixture to Tony's lap for the next 30 minutes. This is a great part of the day. Not only is my life partner home and I can look at his handsome face, but a much needed break is sure to follow, as I sneak downstairs. But it wasn't always this cozy picture.

When Dena was a baby, I was a soldier, and a single mother. I worked my ass off to prove myself as a woman and single mother in today's Army. I'm all for women's empowerment. I could run and ruck just as well if not better than my male counterparts. I excelled at my job. I was an expert shooter. My commander once said that if he could choose any person to take to war with him, it would've been me. Yet all of this came at a price. My day started at 4am, and I had enough time to get on my PT uniform, grab my BDU's, my food for the day, get Dena dressed and hit the door by 4:30. I dropped her off by 5:15, and was in formation by 6am. I worked a 10 hour day (sometimes more), picked her up from daycare about 5:15, and home by 6:15 pm, if I was lucky to not fight traffic. That was my day Mon-Fri, and sometimes on the weekend if we had an alert. It was like that for 6 months until I moved on post. When she was 18 months old I was sent to Korea. While there I found out the head of my left femur had died and I needed a total hip replacement. There went my military career. Life was rough, and there were many times that I was very grateful to my father for being the role model my baby girl needed.

I am eternally grateful for my husband who stepped in and has been a constant in Dena's life since she was two. He is my rock, my best friend, and the father of all my children.

Being a mother or father is more than just biology. It's a lifetime commitment, full of blood, sweat, tears, pride, failure, and lots of time and devotion. It's giving of yourself when you have nothing left. It's late nights, early mornings, long days, and you telling yourself man if there were only 2 more hours in a day...

It's moments of self doubt, great triumph, and prayers that your children will turn into productive members of society. If you're a service member, police officer, or firefighter, the constant unknowing of whether you're coming home that day makes it even harder. If you're poor, or even middle class, you can multiply everything I just wrote above by 10. Our children need fathers. They need a loving environment, where a child can look into their parents loving eyes, and know that their mom or dad would walk through Hell in gasoline underwear to keep them safe. That we would give our lives in a heartbeat if it means they can survive. To denigrate that by saying, "women no longer have to “settle” for a man in order to start a family", is not conducive to what we need in society.

To my sisters and brothers who are raising children on your own, I commend you. To those who are married and raising children, I commend you. Both are hard endeavors, and I've been on both sides of the spectrum.

The rest of the world is NOT Hollywood, and this is not a damn movie where everything ends with roses and sunshine. I just wish those in Hollywood would just make a good movie, and stop trying to sound so much more knowledgeable than us "regular folks". But I guess when you have lots money, you can look at the world with such a narrow view in regards to parenthood.
