In lieu of an abstract, here is a brief excerpt of the content:

  • An Appeal from The Committee To Stop Children's Murders

"Many people are wearing Green Ribbons in mourning for our children. Perhaps this is a time in history when we must signal one another that we want LIFE.

"When we wear these symbols of hope for our country and world; for life in these times of terror; for success during these days of struggle, we mourn throughout our country for those mothers and fathers who have lost children to murderers.

"Society seems to be both the victim and the victimizer. Drugs, including alcohol, lack of decent moral codes, erosion of the family, perversions against people through the world, indicate that NOW is the time for people to act with love.

"Our purpose is to create a child-conscious society. We also function as a support mechanism for the parents and families of the children who have been abducted and murdered in Atlanta. Presently we are creating a community supplemental group (our own peace patrol). This will aid police efforts to apprehend those responsible.

"Our non-profit organization is supported solely from private contributions. Our continued existence is based on your future spiritual and financial support. We are our brothers' keeper."
