I Am A Member Of Human Supporters Of Werewolves

The Hsw Mission Statement... The goal of the HSW is to provide support for werewolves as well as any non-human beings that seek, or come upon accidentally, global exposure to human society. In developing and maintaining such support, self-proposed non-humans can enter into an agreement of symbiotic protection with humans. This means that non-humans are guaranteed the help of official HSW members who act as ambassadors to human society and protectors if necessary. In return, any non-human or group of non-humans wishing to recieve such support must ensure that HSW members are protected if necessary in such a case that HSW members fail to stop violent acts against non-humans. This is a cooperative effort and an attempt to strengthen the bond between humans and non-humans. An HSW member is not expected to, but is rather disuaded to, risk their own life for the cause. However, all choices made in supporting non-humans are made by a member themself and no other. To what extent one supports non-humans depends entirely on the level of commitment. Even a good word towards the loyalty of a friend who happens to be non-human is more help than none.

Human Supporters of Werewolves: For the safety of the innocent, human and non-human.

You do understand why this in mass wouldn't happen?
Also that there are humans that live within the packs with knowledge of it, technically since the natives in USA have rights over territory wolves can't claim its already included but in different matters.

History is a string of events that could not have been predicted or seemed impossible at one point. Optimism is one of the only things we have nowadays. More importantly, hiding is becoming an incredibly risky option and, if we were to attempt exposure, human ambassadors are only logical. The more there are, the greater the chance of success. Also, I'm not sure what you are saying towards the end of your comment. Are you talking about land ownership? If we are citizens (defined as an animal including human who is an inhabitant of a city, state, or country), then land ownership means little. This is about something better for all kinds, not just those who choose to either ignore the possibility of the existence of werewolves or who demonize for no justified reason. It is easy for a "normal" person to live life, but what about the abnormal people? What about the humans and non-humans who are not accepted. This endeavor would be the first step in an opening-up of the minds of all people, human and non-human. Progression does not come through ignorance and intolerance, it comes through open-mindedness and, sometimes, doing something that may seem more risky than it is actually worth.
lordvolkhark
No its reality of the usa packs respecting the native people an leaving reservation land unclaimed by packs.
Really isn't a issue all your main government bodies have us or others that don't wish to be made public in key locations, I actually can't think of starred general whose not a wolf right.
Currently its easier to "hide" because public knowledge is still feed by edited means an accepted as the normalcy.
Really you'd cause more harm by exposure then you could imagine because of are an others positioning.

Sounds like a logical argument and it would seem that hiding works for now. What no one seems to consider however is long-term effects. Hiding works now, but what will happen as a result? Scattered all over the world are wolves and other non-humans, many of which are not told or even know what they are. The repression of such a massive part of a person's being can lead to revealing and even violent expression. If we do not expose ourselves, some kid or foolish adult might do it by accident, or maybe just someone so repressed that they fall into an insanity that only further paints werewolves as vicious and crazed beasts. The reality of hiding is that it promotes physical, social, and psychological insecurities and problems that will echo throughout generations of lost and confused children who just might kill themselves, go insane, or be deemed "abnormal" for the whole of their lives. Meanwhile, the ability to shift as well as the history and essence of werewolf culture will fade as we slowly but surely conform to the close-mindedness and ignorance of human society. If we want to progress, we have to actually progress; move forward. In the long-term, the benefits out-weigh the costs. It is a risky venture, but that is the essence of advancement. No one ever made a boat and crossed an ocean, saw the stars, flew a plane, or landed on the moon by allowing the risks to squelch their desire and pure guts to progress. We can hide in uncertain and self-destructive "safety" or we can grow some balls and do something that, if successful, will change the world for the better. I know what I have chosen. Anyone else can make their own choice. I can only hope that they will consider the long-term pros and cons of living in hiding versus living as who and what we truly are in a more open and accepting world. It may seem overly-optimistic, but no apparently-impossible feat was accomplished without a significant, if not unrealistic, amount of optimism.
lordvolkhark
Actually long term effects is reflected by the reality of are actions, basically there are reason's those wolves worked to be generals.
Basically we've been at this so long we're settled after centuries of work.
lordvolkhark
You'd basically have find a spot someone doesn't know our or others existence.
Everything is covered as its development has lead too ,exposure isn't beneficial to anyone
Drachona · 31-35, M
How would you know it would not be beneficial? Are you within the minds of all the lost and confused wolves out there. Not everyone is as well-off as these "generals" you speak of. If even one wolf has to be born without knowledge of what they are and raised in an environment of intolerance, then we are failing. Clearly, you have avoided paying attention to any of my words. No one benefits from hiding in the long-term. Hiding the truth from the public promotes the continuation of bullshit misconceptions and beliefs that are detrimental to the progression of human society and, consequently, the world. Why not let humanity continue to be ignorant while young wolves may make it into their forties without knowing what they are. Let the whole of who we are fade into nothingness. If you have even the slightest ability to see the long-term effects of current decisions, then you would know this. You may disagree, but to ignore these inevitabilities is to admit either to ignorance of them or the inability to see them because of stupidity. I mean no insult, only the statement of truth. We cannot afford to sacrifice opportunities for future children, human or otherwise, because we were too stupid to grow some balls and make a difference for the good of all beings. We can live in ignorance or progress through truth and acceptance.
lordvolkhark
I am listening but lost now because do you have any proof of wolves born outside are culture?
News reports or something because we'd be out within hours....you honestly think we leave our species a predator like bean alone?
Good of all beans, we don't control everything because we're not only anything out there.
Long term...well right it secure environment for the long run.
Are assuming wolves coming out means everyone is wealthy an treated the same, to be honest wolves accept a class role system we just don't abuse it like humans.
Like work to own my place I wasn't given it.
do Iknow why we're not in the spot light or out as you put, I mean that be your reasonings root?
lordvolkhark
Oh an the reason it wouldn't benefit anyone as stated earlier we'd expos everything we are an have done an because we are different (this is a good thing even modern society) we'd be held so an expected to accept an I don't see that ending well at all.
Drachona · 31-35, M
You are talking to a wolf that has been left behind, and I know of others. And if you feel that exposure is worthless, then answer me one question. When and if you have children, what will you tell them? How will you explain to them that they cannot be themselves in public without causing panic? If that is what you desire, then continue with your resistance of change. For those non-humans that do not share your apparent comfort and freedom, we will just live lost and lying lives. One thing, above all, you must understand is that the world changes. Time itself is a process of change. If you do not seek progress, the world will do it without you. I seek freedom and acceptance for all of us. By your stance, I gather that such a thing is useless to you. It seems we should just go our own ways, but before you continue with this, consider what all I have said. It is apparent that your image of the world is incorrect and ignorant because there are many wolves and other non-humans lost in human society. If all were fine and exposure were not beneficial, then things would not be as they are.
lordvolkhark
Answer is well they'd learn as children as I did.
Now I must ask how we're you left behind?
Where are the reports of wolves attacking people outing us?
I've stion what are going to tell the people who come to us with missing child cases or what well be the laws involving us in say the United States government?
If tomorrow a wolf killed a human for no reason the body is found half broken in current state of affairs that wolves dead, put that in the news an you think a Hispanic maleprotecting hihimself from attacker was bad in the limited black community it effected.
Can you understand why we hide when you see warfare fought in Africa or the klutz klan reappearing formed by veterans?
What world do you see when women no a child was shoot for going to school?
Drachona · 31-35, M
You make good points. The world is dangerous, there is no doubt. But make no mistake in thinking that I have not considered the potential downfalls. What I find interesting though is that you have switched your argument from certainty of this society you speak of to stating that the world is dangerous and not ready for exposure. Also, I never said that there were attacks on humans. I was saying what if. Believe me, there are those who want to expose our kind. I knew someone once who had mad designs on killing people, seemingly just for their own personal satisfaction. We cannot deny the simple fact that exposure could happen regardless of whether we want it to or not. Someone could accidentally stumble upon damning evidence and show it to the world, and before anyone could cover it up everyone would already have the idea in their heads. We can be proactive or reactive. It is our choice. The world may seem young and unready. However, we are in a time of growing belief in the strange and supernatural. There has never been a more apt time for exposure. More importantly, you speak of the world and humanity's inability to deal with people who are different or deal with change. Is that acceptable? I live in the state where the Ku Klux Klan was born, and I am proud to say that things are nowhere near what they used to be in this state. Change happens, with or without us. We can either accept the way things are in society as if they are inevitable and eternal or we can seek to make things better. Who in the history of society ever did anything of importance with your attitude? It took guts to fly a plane, or go to space, or seek African American rights, or seek women's rights. We need guts now. We need to take a chance instead of hiding in the corner and hoping things will go on as they do now. We either gamble with the future or we take control of the game as best we can. I know which I prefer. You just have to ask yourself which you will choose.
lordvolkhark
Reactive leaves bodies young an old proactive leaves nothing behind.
Your looking at picture that painted its self with pain to cover up the horrible my dear sir an we honor that pain by not destroying that picture.
What we've done for ours isn't always kind that's true but wasn't for nothing.
I'll ask you if you can figure this out why would European culture leave its home.... my only guess to claim the greatest gift of all a new world.
My suggestions ask the dead if this is what they want not the youth because they haven't paid for the gift by others blood.
Drachona · 31-35, M
I will not ask the dead because they are dead. Many of the dead fought for change instead of allowing things to remain the same. You seem to ignore the power and importance of the young. The future world is a place for the young, not the dead, and so they are the one's whose opinions matter most because their opinions will shape the future. I seek acceptance and greater knowledge. To be opposed to my goal is not the same as being against such things, but it is not promoting them either. In the end, you are disagreeing with a movement to make things better for all people. That is fact, not opinion.
lordvolkhark
Again better for whom, last I checked current crisis here is repairs from explosion an storms' no war on our soilor religious cults breeding insanity of holy falsehoods.

We never fought to change anything to protect ours to advance ours to strengthen ours wwe'd kill for that an have.
Look clearly, what do you gain beyond giving a true meaning to "racism" to humanity, their divided could you imagine if the had common enemy?
Drachona · 31-35, M
Do you think that becoming a common enemy is fair in our case? It may be likely to happen, but should we allow it to be okay or move to change it? There are many things wrong in the world, and we cannot change them if we promote ignorance and intolerance by staying hidden.
lordvolkhark
Common enemy would imply we are the only predators.
Intolerance caused deaths of stupidity, there is reason there are no cases(in these centuries) of humans hunting us or hard to prove past cases.
Drachona · 31-35, M
That is a bold and broad claim, not to mention oddly supportive of my argument for exposure and undermining of your argument that exposure could lead to trouble. If you don\'t think that hunting does or would occur, then what is the reason for not exposing our kind?
Dakopher
What do you mean wolves born outside your culture?
