When in the Course of human Events, it becomes necessary for one group of People to state their grievances with fellow humankind, and to assume among the Powers of the Earth, the Nondiscriminatory and Equal Station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent Respect to the Opinions of Mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to seek such Equality of Rights.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all humans are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness. Throughout History, Humankind has long oppressed and emotionally scarred our fellow Brothers and Sisters, of which are unfortunate Victims of various malodorous Medical Conditions. Prudence will dictate that the Status Quo should not be changed for light and transient Causes; and accordingly, We do not request anything other than an Entitlement Due to all Humans; all people have the Due Right to uphold their Dignity, no matter however Nature and God chose to endow each and every one of Us. Therefore, We the Malodorous People Unite, and firmly assert our grievance; all that We ask for is Respect. To secure these Rights, we the Malodorous People of God's Great Earth, do now state cause for our collective grievance against humanity. Let these Facts be submitted to a candid World.

Humanity has oppressed our Aspirations by means of Discrimination, Harassment, and Indignities of which We have been subjected.

Humanity has stripped Us of our Dignity, denies Us our due Respect, and injured our Reputation.

Humanity has suppressed our Emotional well-being, forcing Us into Solitude and Depression.

Humanity has Siphoned the very substance of our Souls, Depressing any reason for Rejoicing.

Humanity has Infected our minds, making Us think that We are Insignificant, Substandard, and Unwanted.

Employers have wrongfully Terminated our right to employment due to our Condition, and Not due to our Performance.

Employers refuse to consider Us for Employment upon interview due to our Condition.

Employers and employees employ strategic Tactics in order to cause Us to Abandon our positions and Quit the company.

Doctors have ignored our symptoms and complaints, regarding Us as Hypochondriacs.

Doctors have suggested We take Mental medication to alleviate out Mental condition, when we have a Physical condition that affects our Health.

Friends have Abandoned Us, family does not believe Us, and even our pets turn up their noses and turn tail to escape Us.

In every stage and event of our Oppression, We have remained Reclusive in disquietude. Any action We have taken toward Resolving our complaints against humanity have been answered with Doubt, Disbelief, and total Rejection, thereby adding insult to injury.

We, therefore, the Malodorous People of The World, do make this grievance in order that the common people of the world do Realize that our Medical Condition is not of our Will, but forced upon Us by Nature's endowments. Further, We assert that We give every effort to Combat this malodorous stench that clings to Us, albeit with limited success. Additionally, we encourage any enlistment of those that may have Solutions to our Dilemma. We Reek not of our Will, though We are United as One; a malodorous family that seeks only Respect and Understanding.
