Before supporting ANY proposed bills, you should always read through the entire bill before pushing your local politicians to support/not support it. Anyone (especially Oprah) can say that a bill WILL do something if put into effect. I will never take anyone, any celeb, especially Oprah's opinion to heart on any matter. Sure, the aspects of the proposed bill that she actually mentioned are great, if that was how it would work, but as with any proposed bill or law, there are always strings attached. It is so easy to say "but this will help so many kids!" but you still have to see that there is sometimes hidden propaganda in a lot of bills that are completely unrelated to what seems to be the main cause. There always seems to pop up some political agenda from the author of the proposal unfortunately.
That being said, both my husband and myself come from families that have gone through a lot of sexual abuse. I truely believe that there needs to be the technology and the law enforcement to put these sickos away for life, along with castration. I will not, however, ever write a political figure because Oprah, or anyone on Yorkietalk says so. Please look at both sides of this and go through it with a fine tooth comb before pressing this issue.
Here is the link to the actual bill and not what Oprah says.
