I mumbled and mumbled looking for a new emercency challenge that fit ALL the wishes expressed in this topic...
so, after several days I gived up to thes mission impossible and chose a matter that moved me.

May be it is not so "big" like the former issue but hope that can ispire you and also foster some effective action for a change.
Thanks Chelydra for the chance and look for the new challenge (against the breed specific legislation) on the forum!

...and future challenges I think could also be about subjects or 'causes' that aren't generally acknowledged as being hot topics or even significant ones... cutbacks in music education budgets...elderly abuses. esp. in nursing homes (where inmates aren't even allowed to sneak into each others beds at night)... rare breeds of pigs and chickens dying out... recognizing the one valid argument for bullfighting (it keeps one domestic breed powerful, alert, and dangerous when the rest of its species is reduced to beef and udders)...

that was the response i was hoping for - the yes part especially --- do feel free to set any precedents, suggest any policies, change what it's called, etc.

The only thing I meant to say by way of reining you in, was please don't rein in too much the future subjects - both supporting cancer research and promoting beast - beast-feeding i was about to write but that'ss okay too - breastfeeding should be available, not banned because they're either too controversial or not controversial enough, is my opinion, but you can still state your opinion too, and future challengers will have their own opinions...

thanks Chelydra - your last two lines say all that has needed!

let me think a bit for a new good emergency challenge!

meant to say at the end: as long as there is sincerity in the choice of subject, and other people can make sense of the subject.
