[Hallucinogen]

вот к примеру интересная петиция, которую подал вольный город Austin, TX


Peacefully grant the city of Austin Texas to withdraw from the state of Texas & remain part of the United States.

Austin Texas continues to suffer difficulties stemming from the lack of civil, religious, and political freedoms imposed upon the city by less liberally minded Texans. It is entirely feasible for Austin to operate as its own state, within the United States, in the event that Texas is successful in the current bid to secede. It is important for Austin to remain in the union as to do so would protect it's citizens' standard of living and re-secure their rights and liberties in accordance with the original ideas and beliefs of our founding fathers.

We would also like to annex Dublin Texas, Lockhart Texas, & Shiner Texas.

Remove "In God We Trust" from the U.S. currency and remove "under God" from the Pledge of Allegiance.

The United States added "In God We Trust" to our currency and added "under God" to the Pledge of Allegiance in the 1950s to show the world that we were not "godless communists". This was a blatant violation of the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment to the United States Constitution, which clearly states, "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof". This act blatantly respected the Christian establishment. Please help me in undoing this act of religious favoritism and "communist fear" by signing this petition.

Support mandatory labeling of genetically engineered foods (GMOs).

We have a right to know how the food we eat and feed our families is produced, but under current FDA regulations, we don’t have that ability when it comes to genetically engineered foods (GMOs).

More than forty countries, including Russia and China, already require labels on genetically engineered foods. And a recent poll found that nearly all Democrats (93%), Independents (90%), and Republicans (89%) support labeling of GMOs. At a time when partisan rancor dominates the public conversation, there are few topics that can muster such overwhelming support.

And although over 1 million people submitted comments in favor of labeling, the FDA has yet to act.

President Obama, please listen to the American public and speak out in favor of the mandatory labeling of genetically engineered foods.

Require all Genetically Modified Foods to be labeled as such.

Genetically modified foods are a recent technology and are already in many commercial foods Americans consume today. While they may have benefits, these genetically modified organisms (GMOs) have not been studied rigorously enough in their potential human health impacts. Therefore, it should be the consumer's right to know whether the food they choose to purchase contains all or partly genetically modified organisms as ingredients.

Although certified Organic foods are labeled as such and contain no GMOs, the consumer does not know whether they are buying genetically modified foods when they can't or choose not to buy Organic.

Petition to require food companies to label their foods according to their contents in terms of containing genetically modified organisms.

Prevent Genetically Engineered & Modified Organisms from being introduced into our bodies, food supply & environment

Consumption of Genetically Modified/Engineered Foods, Plants, Animals & Vaccines have not been conclusively proven to be harmless to humans. Animals fed GMO corn have been rendered INFERTILE and have grown large tumors. GMO pollen has contaminated the crops of unsuspecting farmers whose seed stock and livelihood are now being destroyed by GMO Patent holders. Genetically modified salmon have been released into the wild to breed. Pandora's Box. These heinous actions constitute an assault upon our farmers, our bodies, against Mother Earth, against Creation. Additionally, many European countries refuse to accept US crops because of GMO contamination therefore causing economic hardship to our agricultural business.

Federally Legalize Marijuana

Colorado's amendment 64 just passed, as did Initiative 502 in Washington. Marijuana prohibition is gradually becoming a thing of the past, and simply needs one final push. Alcohol prohibition turned out to be more harm than good in the early 1900's, and marijuana prohibition is recreating the same situation. The bottom line is that marijuana prohibition enforcement costs the government 13.7 billion dollars annually, and puts well over 500,000 people in jail every year (sources cited below).

Make Election Day a Federal Holiday in an effort to increase voter accessibility and promote democratic culture

This is a petition to make Election Day a Federal Holiday, which would help accomplish a variety of objectives to promote the state of democracy. First, it would promote the ability of Americans to vote by eliminating the pressures and constraints of the workday. This could be especially beneficial in preventing long lines late in the day, which can impede the process and dissuade voters from participating. Second, it would help create an environment which celebrates democracy on one of the most important days for our nation. This holiday could also be combined with Veterans Day during election years as a way to highlight the indelible impact that our veterans have had on our nation by both protecting and promoting the principles of democracy domestically and across the globe.

по реформе избирательной системы

Reform our Electoral College

We call on President Obama to propose an Amendment to the Constitution in order to reform the Electoral College. States would appropriate their electoral votes in each Presidential Election through the Congressional District Method. Already in place in Maine and Nebraska, this system divides each state into its Congressional Districts, and allots one electoral vote per district. The candidate who wins the popular vote in that district would receive its single electoral vote. The candidate who wins the statewide popular vote would receive the two additional electoral votes. This reform would make every vote in every state important to a candidate, and give voters a larger incentive to vote, while maintaining the importance of states in our federal government.

Justice for Missouri Secession

Peacefully grant the remaining United States of America a Pizza Party furnished by Pizza Hut and Papa Johns (unless he keeps laying off his workers) should the State of Missouri succeed with one or both of their petitions to the White House to Secede from the Union.

As remaining loyal citizens of America, and to shove it in Missourians faces once they aren't a part of the US any longer, a Nationwide Pizza Party would reconcile differences, mend old wounds and bring together the nation.

As an American Veteran on behalf of the U.S. Constitution, the Republic, the Rule of Law, and equal justice for all freedom loving citizens of the United States of America hereby declare that the Federal Government allow Alaska to peacefully secede from a dysfunctional Union that is run by corrupt politicians who buy the votes of individuals who can no longer be seen as American citizens but rather, slaves to a tyrant.

We who took the oath to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States of America against all enemies, foreign and domestic, now declare Washington DC to be the domestic enemy to the freedom and liberty of all Alaskans and indeed, 50% of the free citizens of the USA. Therefore, we declare our secession in support of the US Constitution. LET MY PEOPLE GO!

We pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. We do not support secession.

Force all states to pay their portion of the national debt before they can secede from the union

Residents of all states who wish to secede from the union should be required to take their own advice about 'personal responsibility', and pay their share of the national debt before being released to fend for themselves.

This debt must be paid in full, or they cannot leave.

This means no federal assistance, period.

Abridged list includes no more upkeep for highways, nor for interstates or bridges, no federally funded law enforcement or fire department, no public libraries, no phone lines, no cable television, no cell phone towers, no power grids, no water lines, no mail services, no paramedics, no hospitals which accept Medicare/Medicaid funding, no ATF, FBI, DOJ, SWAT, or Department of Homeland Security, no Border Guard, National Guard, Coast Guard, Corps of Engineers, or WITSEC.

Ban the practice of circumcising individuals under the age of 18.

Circumcision is a barbaric tribal practice that amounts to child abuse. Before any individual under go any permanent body modification such as tattooing or sex reassignment surgery they must be considered old enough to understand the consequences. You cannot understand the ramifications of this act to your physical being until after puberty, when your genitals have fully developed.

form an administration to fact-check statements made during presidential debates & display results on TV in real-time

Allowing Presidential Debates to be nothing more than lies about candidates' and opponents' records and platforms makes a mockery of the democratic process. The idea presented in this petition attempts to reform the debate process: a critical vehicle in any democratic election.

The Commission on Presidential Debates should establish a bi-partisan team of fact-checkers representing a variety of different industries to be present at each debate to confirm the validity of the statements made by each candidate. The status of each statement (pending, confirmed, or denied) should be displayed both on TV screens in real-time and online.

Sign this petition to support integrity in our government.

Allow United States Military service members to place their hands in their pockets.

When in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the bonds of service to the United States military, this regretful termination of service to this great nation is often precipitated by inane uniform and personal conduct policies.

We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all uniforms have pockets and hands fit perfectly inside them, and they sheathe our knife hands gloriously. It must be acknowledged that placing one's hands in one's pockets is not a sign of disrespect, but a precautionary action to prevent injuries.

Therefore, these undeniable truths being told, the service members of the United States military respectfully request the President of the United States to restore our sacred right to place our hands in our pockets -- on or off duty.

provide University graduates ability to trade their diplomas back for 100% tuition refunds.

Because of the inability of recent college graduates to find gainful employment in order to repay their college debt, and since this college debt cannot be eliminated in bankruptcy, and most of the recent additions to the job market have been in service related industries, the Obama administration should take up the cause of reducing college debt and hold those accountable responsible.

In the name of Consumer Protection, recent college graduates should have the ability to return the diploma and not make any reference to receiving education from the college in exchange for a 100% refund of college tuition. This may be extended with a graduated (ha, get it?) reduction for the last four years, with a red line at January 20, 2008.

Disregard attempts to withdraw the state of Texas from the union. United we stand, divided we fall.

Separating the State of Texas will not only destroy its economy, it allow the inhumane thoughts and acts of closed minded individuals to take away the rights and liberties of hard working citizens.

Require Barack Obama To Allow The Public Examination Of His Birth Certificate Records & His College & University Records

We The People request the Obama Administration to require Barack H. Obama to authorize the public examination of his birth certificate records together his college and university records. We have all seen the document produced by The White House which has been declared suspect by Sheriff Joe Arpaio, but The People request that Barack Obama authorize the State of Hawaii to release all related information concerning his birth in the State. We also request that Barack Obama authorize Occidental College and Harvard University release all records they hold in connection with The President. The People will willingly pay a reasonable fee for each page or document copied and provided by either entity in accordance with their standard fee schedule.


ну... что ты на это скажешь, Барак ? тотаже...

"выход штатов из состава штатов" вне всякого сомнения сыграл как мощная всемирная реклама вэбсайту БД... новые Петиции возникают ежечасно

у нас все еще есть шанс подать хоть что-нибудь от имени форума.. что-нибудь серьезное, на злобу дня, с прицелом на будущее и т.д....

скоро все хорошие темы расхватают...

на вэб сайте Белого Дома есть раздел, где народ может подавать разные-всякие петиции, а Правительство их потом рассматривает и отвечает

если у вас есть интересная идея насчет петиции от имени нашего форума - давайта рассмотрим, и может быть даже подадим... а чо?

вот к примеру петиция, которые подали студенты Университета Иллинойса:


вот здесь ---> хттпс://петитионс.щхитехоусе.гов/петитионс# <---- можно ознакомиться со страничкой где рассматриваются петиции

условий немного:
1. петиция должна быть серьезной, без всяких там шуточек-хаханек
2. петиция должна быть на английском языке и в ней обязательно должны быть слова Peacefully и grant
3. петиция должна отражать чаяния большинства нашего форума, а не делить его непримиримо пополам, а значит следует избегать вопросов политики
4. пожалуйста без флуда... видите в заголовке темы значок http://forum.russianamerica.com/f/images/icons/icon4.gif ? тотаже

Интересно, в каких странах религиозные организации не освобождаются от налогов? Скорее всего в Европе есть такие.


Require religious organizations to pay federal, state and local taxes on all assets and revenues
Many organizations that call themselves churches support lavish lifestyles for their upper echelon while actively lobbying government to support a partisan agenda.

There is no reason to grant special tax exemptions to these groups; revenue that goes directly to aid those in need shall be exempted from taxation.

Formally request that the Senate take action on S. 202 (Audit the Fed)

Whereas, the American taxpayer has been made liable for over $16 trillion in loans and bailouts; and

Whereas, the Federal Reserve consistently refuses to fully disclose the details of said lending; and

Whereas, S 202, the Federal Reserve Transparency Act, would require a comprehensive audit of the Federal Reserve for the first time in its history and would provide accountability to all Americans as to how their money is being spent; and

Whereas, you personally promised the American people that your administration would stand for openness and transparency in government.

Therefore Mr. President, We the people here undersigned urge you to formally ask Senate Majority Leader Reid to take action and bring the S. 202 to the Senate floor as quickly as possible for a full roll call vote.

Create a single-payer healthcare system for the betterment of American citizens & businesses, which will lower costs

Single-payer healthcare systems ensure coverage for 100% of citizens. This reduces the total cost through administrative savings and cost containment, as well as through access to preventative medicine.

Hospitals would no longer have unpaid bills, collection departments, or highly involved billing systems, all of which would add dramatically to savings.

Small businesses and start-ups would be able to offer the exact same coverage as large corporations thus leveling the playing field for small businesses.

Large, frugal corporations like Walmart would no longer be a drain on the tax base, as they'd be covered just like everyone else.

у меня такая идея:

подать петицию о введении такого законодательного механизма как федеральный референдум...

есть такая общественно-политическая инициатива:
http://ni4d.us/national_initiative

The National Initiative for Democracy is:
- a proposed Constitutional Amendment (Democracy Amendment) which recognizes the people's right to make laws at the local, state and federal level of every jurisdiction in the country
and
- a federal law (Democracy Act) which spells out orderly procedures for the people to develop and vote on laws.

The National Initiative does not change or eliminate Congress, the President, or the Judicial Branch of government. Laws created by initiative must still stand up in the courts just like laws created by Congress. The National Initiative adds an additional check—the people—to America's system of checks and balances, while setting up a working partnership between the People and their elected representatives.

The framers of the National Initiative for Democracy believe the law-making branch of government (Congress) no longer effectively represents the will of the American people. They believe as America continues to grow and diversify, Congress can only become less and less effective in representing the masses; that the gap between the elite decision making few and the ever diversifying average citizen, can only be bridged through direct citizen participation in governing. They contend "voting out" representatives from office or enacting term limits is a good idea, those actions do not address the basic, fundamental flaw of governing an enormous, increasingly heterogeneous population by a tiny, elite few. They believe that recent technological advances have made it possible for all Americans to voice their opinions on policies and laws which affect their lives; technology that did not exist in 18 Century America, when the Constitution was written.

The National Initiative for Democracy believes direct citizen participation in law-making is the sovereign right of all Americans and should no longer be the exclusive right of Congress (at the federal level). Since it does not seek to abolish Congress, the States' Constitutional right to a representative form of government stated in Article I, Section 1, remains unaffected. The Supreme Court has recognized the Constitutional right of citizens to make laws at the state level but oddly, not at the federal.

Transfer funds from the drug war to fund the research and development of the genetic engineering of domestic cat girls.

We believe that the genetic engineering of cat girls could be potentially beneficial for the economy and an effective for use as domestic house servant. The money being used to fight the drug war is effectively pointless. We could be using this money to fund other much more important things such as the genetic engineering of cat girls for domestic use. The government could then sell these genetic household workers to boost the economy and try to further decrease the national debt. They could be used around the house so that the homeowners could pursue jobs to also boost the economy.

Renew the tax cuts for 98% of all taxpayers NOW.

The average American middle class taxpayer needs ALL the expiring tax cuts extended. We cannot afford the Republican obstruction to hold these extensions hostage so they can fulfill their main concern - tax cuts for the top 2%.

*The Republicans will once again talk about job creators - you know, that phantom group who has not shown up during the first 10 years of the bush subsidy to the ultra-wealthy.

*They will complain about the uncertainty faced by taxpayers not knowing what their 2013 taxes will be - obviously just concerned about the top 2% not knowing since they have a chance right now to do away with that uncertainty for 98% of the taxpayers.

And sadly some will blindly believe these LIES - AGAIN!

Citizenship for educated child Immigrants on dependent visa's turning 21.

This petition is for children who are in jeopardy of losing their dependent visa once they turn 21. There are many children who enter the United States legally, at a very young age. They graduate middle school, high school, and go on to collage. But due to the delayed processing of visa petitions, lose their dependent visa. They must now start from scratch, loosing any momentum built towards their initial visa processing date. These are educated students that have been working towards a bright future. This is their home, this is all they know. After spending their entire childhood being studious they face possible relocation once becoming an adult. This is for every immigrant student that needs a fighting chance a bright future.

protect our future by setting a goal of stabilizing the U.S. population at or below one-third of a billion people.

Demographers expect the U.S.population to approach one-half billion people within fifty years. These forecasts are based on current immigration and women's-health-care policies and practices. Unlike the rest of the developed world, which has largely settled into slowing population growth, in the last two decades the U.S. has seen an unprecedented resurgence in population growth, adding 60 million between 1990 and 2010. The growth we have already undergone, however, pales in comparison to the growth expected in the next five decades. I believe that Americans can solve any problem about which they can come to a consensus, but I also believe that most of our problems will be much harder to solve with a population of half-a-billion than one which is not much bigger than our population today.

Investigate the use of donations to the Red Cross

The New York Times has reported that the Red Cross has been seen only on occasion in the Rockaways and other hard-hit areas the two weeks following Hurricane Sandy, despite collecting $150 million from donations for storm relief.

Red Cross has admitted that most of the money is merely going into their coffers to be used for whatever purpose they deem necessarily, despite misleading commercials implying the money is for storm relief. Apparently, it has not deemed Sandy, Katrina or the disaster in Haiti necessarily; most of the money raised each time was just stored away.

This is not merely dropping the ball; it looks like fraud. I am asking that a formal inquiry into the Red Cross is opened to assure that the organization we donate our money to is as transparent as possible.

Those who sign here petition the United States government to secure funding and resources, and begin construction on a Death Star by 2016.

By focusing our defense resources into a space-superiority platform and weapon system such as a Death Star, the government can spur job creation in the fields of construction, engineering, space exploration, and more, and strengthen our national defense.

tell John Boehner he and the Republicans in Congress need to yield to the will of the American People.

On November 6th, 2012, the American people went to their polling places and cast their votes. In doing so, they affirmed, by re-electing President Obama that they agreed with his campaign promise to allow the Bush Tax Cuts to extend for all but those households earning more than a quarter-million dollars a year.

House Speaker John Boehner and other Republicans in Congress have intimated they intend to ignore the will of the people, and stubbornly deny any efforts to raise tax rates on the top earners. This petition is meant to represent a demand on the Republican Party to abide by the simple principle that guides our country's governance: The Majority Rules.

The majority spoke on November 6th, and we'd like Congressional Republicans to behave accordingly.

Legalize home distillation for home spirits!

Currently home distilling is illegal in the US. This petition aims to legalize home distilling. Since 1979, home brewing has been legal, the current artisanal renaissance in craft beers can be connected to this legalization. Home brewers emerge with legalization and openly compete in competition and are able to practice brewing skills without fear of retribution of the law. If home distilling was legalized, I argue we would see a similar renaissance emerge with craft liquors and spirits across the US. The taxes loss from home distilling would be regained by the sale of the local craft spirits and liquors. It's time to legalize this so home distillers can flourish and launch businesses that feed into the current artisanal movement.

Cease paychecks and health benefits to ALL members of Congress and the President until the fiscal cliff is avoided

Congress and the President must forfeit their pay and healthcare benefits until the fiscal cliff is resolved. And they must pass a solution, not a stop-gap.

And, if they miss the Jan 1 deadline, all of Congress and the President must take a permanent 15% pay cut. Their pay cannot be raised for two years.

"The American People" that both sides constantly regale live in this sort of world (do your job or don't get paid). If it is good enough for us, it's good enough for them.

Prohibit Mandatory Vaccination

A vaccination is a medical procedure and no medical procedure comes without risk to the individual receiving it. Vaccines are man made and subject to contamination. Vaccines today still contain harmful preservatives/substances and at times their efficacy is questionable.

Just as an individual has the right to medical consent, an individual should be able to decline vaccination based on their own individual choice between its benefits and risks. If an individual exercises their right to decline, their declination should not have adverse consequences regarding ones admission to school or continued employment in their workplace etc.

Mandatory vaccines place negative consequences on failed compliance to a medical procedure. This is coercion and it is unethical.

вот, можно чуть переделать, сократить.. убрать соплей и вперед !

President should terminate the economic embargo on Cuba, which is a failed policy.It imposes indiscriminate hardship on the Cuban people and impedes democratic change. If the goal is to improve human rights conditions in Cuba, then the embargo should be ended. Washington needs a smarter approach.
The U.S. embargo of Cuba has dramatically affected the health and nutrition of large numbers of ordinary Cuban citizens. As one of the most stringent embargos ever enacted, we declare it a complete failure. The health and well-being of untold thousands and perhaps millions of people are adversly effected by the embargo. We call on the United States Government to end the embargo and normalize relations with Cuba.

It is an all-or-nothing approach aimed at overthrowing the Castro government, which does not allow for any relaxation in response to measurable improvement in Cuban human rights practices. It therefore does nothing to encourage such improvements, instead providing the Cuban authorities with a convenient justification for their repressive policies. It also hurts the Cuban population as a whole by eliciting a nationalistic response from Cubans, it helps the government shift blame for the country's problems.

For the past ten years, the embargo has been condemned in the General Assembly of the United Nations by an overwhelming margin. Resentment of the embargo dissuades other governments from being more vocal about Cuba's poor human rights conditions.

The travel ban, violates the rights of U.S. citizens by limiting their ability to share information and ideas with Cubans. As the visit of former President Jimmy Carter exemplified, U.S. visitors may be the emissary of democratic values and ideas, enriching Cuba's relatively closed society.

в свете последних событий, связанных с массовым убийством, сайт БД завален петициями, посвященными контролю над оружием:

Immediately address the issue of gun control through the introduction of legislation in Congress.

The goal of this petition is to force the Obama Administration to produce legislation that limits access to guns. While a national dialogue is critical, laws are the only means in which we can reduce the number of people murdered in gun related deaths.

Powerful lobbying groups allow the ownership of guns to reach beyond the Constitution's intended purpose of the right to bear arms. Therefore, Congress must act on what is stated law, and face the reality that access to firearms reaches beyond what the Second Amendment intends to achieve.

The signatures on this petition represent a collective demand for a bipartisan discussion resulting in a set of laws that regulates how a citizen obtains a gun.

Today IS the day: Sponsor strict gun control laws in the wake of the CT school massacre

Before the last of the victims were even found at the Newtown, CT school massacre, White House press spokesman Jay Carney stated that "today is not the day" to discuss, at long last, the urgent need for a sane overhaul of our nation's gun laws.

We urgently disagree. If we cannot discuss prevention of massacres like this one while the pain is still fresh, then our opportunities to have that discussion will be few and far between. The frequency of these horrifying incidents is increasing.

If a day on which two dozen schoolchildren are massacred is not the day to discuss this, there never will be a proper day for the discussion.

Stand up to the entrenched gun lobby now. The White House must take the lead on enacting strict controls on all firearms in the US.

Set a date and time to have a conversation about gun policy in the United States.

Every time a mass shooting happens in the United States, we are told by the White House, the federal government and its benefactors in the NRA that, "Now is not the time" to have a conversation about increased regulation of firearms. Ostensibly, this is because it's too close to the just-occurred tragedy, but really, it's because our leaders have their hands in the pockets of one of the richest lobbying organizations in the country.

So, if "now" is not the time to have a conversation about gun control, let's set a time. Over 20 people died today - more than five times as many as died in the Benghazi embassy attack, which event prompted Congressional hearings and mass apoplexy from Republican leaders. Now may not be the time to have the conversation, but it's time to schedule it. Now.

Stronger Gun Control

We continue to see situations of families losing their loved ones to HIGH powered guns. Guns that the average Americans do not need to protect their family, property or hunt. These semi-automatic, automatic and assault rifles are not needed.

1. Limit the number of guns one person can own.

2. Limit the types. Eliminate Automatic and Assault rifles to only Police.

3. Longer waiting times to buy a gun. To allow Harsher background checks.

4. Mental Evaluations. A test to be taken and sent into on agency, graded and evaluated to determine those who may be likely to preform mass killings or crimes. Those with any mental illness not be allowed to own a gun.

5. One federal agency that ALL citizens go through for background and licenses go through.

Urge Congress to advance federal legislation banning the sale of assault rifles & high capacity magazines.

The goal of this petition is to make illegal the sale of assault rifles and high capacity magazines. While not an indictment of the 2nd Amendment, we feel the time has come to address the ambiguous language allowing citizens the right to bear arms. There can be no practical reason for non-military personnel to own these sorts of armaments.

create a national commission to review our gun laws and recommend legislation to address the epidemic of gun violence.

The most recent mass shooting in Connecticut highlights our nation's ongoing inability to address the epidemic of gun violence. We ask that President Obama form a commission of appointed citizens to explore meaningful steps we as a nation can take to control and reduce gun violence.

begin a national conversation on sensible gun control.

On December 14, 2012, a gunman or gunmen opened fire at the Sandy Hook Elementary school in Newtown, Connecticut. Initial reports list 27 dead, including 14 children.

We, the undersigned, believe that the United States can no longer wait for a sensible conversation on gun control. We call on Pres. Obama and his administration to begin a national dialog with members of Congress, federal regulators, firearms manufacturers and distributors, and interested citizens to formulate a commonsense regulation of firearms to keep them out of the hands of disturbed or evil individuals and protect our children from death in their own schools.

It is long past time to begin this conversation. Now is the time.

Every week it seems that we are facing a new headline of mass shootinngs -two in the last week alone. The consitutution gives us the right to bear arms and no one wants to take that right away, but we need real gun control reform.

Background checks, restricted access to semi-automatic weapons, waiting periods, all need to be part of a robust gun control policy that will allow people to keep thier guns but provide a responsible framework to gun ownership.

Seriously, respectfully and quickly work to end the violence committed by assault weapons.

There are classes of weapons that are specifically designed to kill people. These weapons continue to be used to their terrible full potential on innocent men, women and children. Regardless of your politics, one thing we should all be able to agree on; the killing of innocents is wrong. Banning weapons specifically designed to kill multiple people in quick succession should be something we all embrace.

One very good way of demonstrating how much we all believe addressing this is necessary is to show our governing officials that we demand action.

address the shortcomings of the current mental health system to prevent at-risk people from becoming violent offenders.

Today the world was shocked by the tragic events that occurred at the Sandy Hook Elementary School. Many are focusing on the debate about gun control - I would like to avoid that issue here. Behind many of these horrific events are damaged minds that may have been helped before they turned to violent acts. Due to social stigma, lack of government support, drug abuse, and often poverty, there are scores of Americans who are suffering from serious mental health problems without aid. We need to rethink how we treat mental illness in the US, and how we can help individuals long before they hurt themselves or others. Perhaps with the right actions these individuals could live normal lives, and would never get to the point of violent action. Let's speak openly & productively about mental health.

stop crime before it starts by funding mental health facilities instead of prisons.

Encourage congress to shift funding from prisons back into the mental health system to re-open hospitals and provide long-term treatment to people with mental illnesses instead of waiting until they commit a crime and placing them in jail. Open more long term care facilities and lengthen the allowable stay for appropriate treatment and stabilization. Authorize police to transport mentally ill patients to hospitals without requiring them to have first committed a crime.

We ask President Obama to support law abiding gun owners in this time of tragedy.

We ask President Obama to stand with law abiding gun owners in this time of tragedy. Guns laws could not have prevented Adam Lanza from killing 27 innocents. The real question is what made this disturbed young man into a murderer of children. Where is the outrage at the violent video games he played? A piece of plastic and steel doesn't have a will Mr. President. Evil is not law abiding, and Adam Lanza stole those guns after failing to buy one legally. it is America's law abiding gun owners who would have died with Victoria Soto and Dawn Hochsprung defending the children with only our bodies on December 14th, because it was already illegal to bring a gun into that school.

Not punish the tens of millions of law-abiding gun owners with ineffective and unconstitutional "assault weapons" bans.

Please respectfully consider this message on behalf of the tens of millions of law-abiding American gun owners who believe it is unethical, unconstitutional, and unacceptable to be unjustly punished with additional gun laws restricting what specific types of weapons or magazines a person can own or purchase, given that we had absolutely no role in the senseless Newtown, CT tragedy, or any similar recent events.

The state of Connecticut already has a so-called "assault weapons" ban, considered by the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence as one of the strictest in the entire nation, and it did absolutely nothing to prevent this unspeakable tragedy. This speaks volumes for how completely and utterly useless this type of legislation ultimately is in deterring and preventing violent crime.

End the gun free zones and we the people demand a vote on the Citizens Protection Act H.R. 2613

My fellow Americans, it is time that we come to the realization of failed policies. In remembrance of the lives lost in this most recent tragedy we must band together to defend the right to bear arms more than ever. Understand that this occurred in an area which already has strict gun laws and also took place in a "gun free zone." Now there is no way to predict how many lives could have been saved or if this could have been avoided altogether, but we will never know unless we take a step in the right direction of freedom and individual liberties. Let's empower the educators, not the criminals, because only criminals do not obey the laws and with this in mind there is no law that can change this fact.

Allow individual School Districts and/or schools the ability to train staff to be School Marshalls.

We have all witnessed that locks, cameras and other safety measures at our schools do not keep bad people from doing bad things. Schools across America are currently "gun free" zones which has also not deterred criminals. The only way to stop criminals from hurting our kids is to meet this force with an equal or greater force. Hiring security personnel may work for some schools but others run on budgets to tight to handle the extra costs. The solution would be to allow schools to have trained staff that carry weapons for the protection of students; much like what we do with our Air Marshall program for airlines and what they do in Israel to protect their school children. Leave the choice to the individual districts and/or schools if they want to have this option or not.

Place Security Guards in Schools Nationwide: The Safe & Sound Schools Initiative

As a nation we have security in malls, banks, hospitals, airports & more. The Government should require Security where it is most desperately needed; the entrance to every school nationwide. We, as parents, have entrusted schools with the education & safety of our children, whom the future of this country depends upon. There is absolutely no excuse for schools to be exempt from the unquestionable need for Security Guards, as well as extra security measures being in place where they are not as of yet. We should not have to endure another horrific tragedy in order to have such changes immediately implemented. This is a simple yet strongly effective step towards our schools being Safe & Sound; thereby contributing toward the comfort & safety that families nationwide undoubtedly deserve.

Establish federal gun control laws

Strong federal gun control laws are needed now! Other countries have enacted effective and comprehensive legislation to protect their citizens by including the following sensible controls. We urge the Obama administration to support legislation that ensures:

1. Federal background checks on ALL gun sales

2. Significant waiting period and references required to purchase firearms

3. A ban on assault weapons and large-capacity magazines for civilians

4. Mandatory buy-back of assault weapons

promote the use of free software in our schools. Libre Office, Gimp, GNU Cash and other GPL software which is cost free

Each year our educational system wastes billions of dollars for the purchase and support of proprietary operating systems and application software in our schools. The software is rigid and inflexible, opaque in its design and mysterious to our children.

We advocate and propose the gradual replacement of privately owned software with restrictive licensing in favor of open source alternatives with GPL type licenses. In as much as possible we should have our students using software that complies with the definition of free software as defined by the Free Software Foundation.

The GNU/Linux operating system, underlying source code, tools and documentation are readily available to students already. Their use should be encouraged as the tools and code are available cost free.

Thank you.

Cease All Funding and Support for Al-Qaeda Terrorists and Extremist Rebels in Syria

Hillary Clinton has admitted that Al-Qaeda is supporting the Syrian rebels, who are backed by the Obama administration with $200 million dollars in aid. According to McClatchy Newspapers one of these groups, Al Nusra Front, an Al-Qaeda affiliate, is now conducting "the heaviest frontline fighting" in Syria and has been responsible for terrorist attacks. Impartial observers such as Dr. Jacques Beres say the majority of rebels in Syria are foreign extremists whose goal is to impose Sharia law. These rebels have also been filmed burning U.S. flags and chanting anti-American slogans. Funding terrorists is a crime under the National Defense Authorization Act. Such activity has had disastrous consequences in the past, such as 9/11. We demand all support direct or indirect to cease immediately.

Urge the S. Korean Government to Respect Global Animal Protection Laws and Ban the Dog & Cat Consumption Immediately!

The unprecedented cruelty towards animals can no longer be tolerated and it is the moral duty of our Government to intervene on behalf of animal welfare organizations and American public to urge S. Korea to respect and enforce not just its own but Global Animal Protection Laws. Each year 2 mill dogs & thousands of cats are brutally killed often boiled alive. Forced to endure suffering deprivation, torture from birth to death. Abandoned pets end up as meat. We oppose this on ethical, health, environmental and moral grounds. The issue concerns US because in 2018 we will attend Pyeongchang Winter Olympics. It is unconscionable for the Government to ignore the huge growing shock and outcry on social media sites. Cambridge Declaration on Consciousness confirmed animals are not just commodities.

STOP WHITE GENOCIDE, by halting MASSIVE third world immigration and FORCED assimilation in White countries!

Africa for Africans, Asia for Asians, White countries for EVERYBODY?

White countries are being flooded with third world non-whites, and Whites are required by law to integrate with them so as to "assimilate," i.e. intermarry and be blended out of existence.

That's genocide under the 1948 United Nations Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide, Article II, part c, which designates as genocide:

"Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part."

We petition the President of the United States to end White Genocide in the United States, and to call for the end of White Genocide in Europe, Britain, Australia and Canada.

Supporting White Genocide is not anti-racist. It's anti-white.

Recognize Dima Yakovlev Law (186614-6) as harmful and inhumane, extend Magnitsky act to its supporters in Russian Duma. :111:

On December 21, 2012, Russian Duma passed Federal Law 186614-6 that prohibits adoption of orphaned Russian children in the USA, as well as deprives Russian human rights advocates of the ability to work with American colleagues.

This law was prepared as a response to Magnitsky Act, and was preceded by a campaign of slander against orphan rehabilitation programs and human rights advocacy in the world.

We urge our political leaders, at minimum, to speak up against this primarily anti-humane act and make clear that acts of ideological revenge are unfitting for the international political arena.

We also ask that Magnitsky Act be extended to supporters of this law in Russian Duma.

- urge this Administration to identify those involved in adopting such legislature responsible under "Magnitsky Act" and thus included to the relevant list.

This will be Earth’s first gigawatt-class interplanetary spaceship with artificial gravity. The ship can serve as a spaceship, space station, and space port all in one. In total, one thousand crew members & visitors can be on board at once. Few things could collectively inspire people on Earth more than seeing the Enterprise being built in space.

Recognize Dima Yakovlev Law (186614-6) as harmful and inhumane, extend Magnitsky act to its supporters in Russian Duma.

Администрация БД ответила на эту и подобные Магнитские петици:

"Соединенные Штаты разделяют вашу озабоченность принятым российской Думой законом. Если он вступит в силу, то тем самым будет введен запрет на усыновления между Соединенными Штатами и Россией, а также ограничено сотрудничество организаций российского гражданского общества с американскими партнерами. Мы продолжим поднимать эти вопросы перед властями России", - говорится в ответе администрации США на петиции, собравшие за несколько дней более 75 тысяч подписей.

Никаких обещаний относительно включения кого-либо в список лиц, подлежащих санкциям по "закону Магнитского", ответ не содержит - в нем лишь общие заверения, что США и впредь будут поддерживать развитие гражданского общества в России, как и требовать наказания ответственных за смерть юриста Сергея Магнитского.

Для того чтобы петицию рассмотрела администрация президента США, ей нужно было собрать 25 тысяч подписей до 20 января, но этот результат был достигнут менее чем за два дня. На момент закрытия сбора подписей их набралось 54 с половиной тысяч, и петиция вошла в десятку самых популярных.

Судя по именам, большинство подписавшихся под тремя петициями - русскоязычные, причем живущие как в США, так и в России и в других странах. Для того чтобы поставить подпись под обращением, не обязательно быть гражданином США.

А российская "Новая газета" в ответ на "антисиротский" закон начала Нажать на своем сайте сбор подписей за роспуск Госдумы. Собранные подписи "Новая газета" намеревается передать российскому президенту и представителям ЦИК 1 февраля 2013 года вместе с заявлением от имени проголосовавших о проведении всенародного референдума.

По данным российского министерства образования и науки, граждане США чаще других иностранцев усыновляют детей из России. Только в 2011 в Америку отправились 956 из 3400 усыновленных за границу детей; 89 из них - инвалиды.

Всего с 1996 года из России в Соединенные Штаты было усыновлено около 60 тысяч детей, 19 из них погибли, в том числе по вине родителей. Официальная статистика смертности детей в российских приемных семьях в открытом доступе отсутствует, но по ряду косвенных данных можно заключить, что эти показатели в десятки раз выше.

mandate paid vacation time to a minimum three weeks of the year. More personal time = less stressed and happier people.

Countries in Latin America and Western Europe receive the most paid vacation during the year, and consider time off a basic human right. It is no coincidence that these countries also rank as the happiest in the world.

While there is merit and pride in America's work ethic, our culture of putting work before fun can create stress and personal isolation.

If countries like Germany provide upwards to six weeks time off a year while still maintaining one of the world's top economies, the United States of America can afford to provide three weeks of mandatory personal time to its citizens.

Life is about experiences, happiness, and goodwill. We need to promote a culture that encourages our citizens to travel, do what makes them happy, and spend a reasonable amount time with their loved ones.

The NRA's efforts to promote gun manufacturing and gun sales are in the interest of personal gain, NOT public benefit.

Repeal Unconstitutional Gun Laws

The Second Amendment to the United States Constitution reads:

A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.

Therefore, all gun control laws are in direct violation of the United States Constitution, the supreme Law of the Land. Given their unconstitutional nature, We the People demand the immediate repeal of all Federal gun laws. As is clearly stated in the plain language of the Second Amendment, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed. Arms include all forms of weaponry which may be employed in the defense of our families, our homes, our communities, and our country. There are no exceptions given in the Second Amendment.

Introduce legislation that mandates annual reporting on gun violence in America.

Currently the Tiahrt amendments severely restrict the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms from disclosing crime gun data to the public under the Freedom of Information Act and bar admissibility of such data in civil suits against the gun industry. Additionally, Congress annually inserts riders into the budgets of the Centers for Disease Control and the National Institutes of Health barring grant money from being used “in whole or in part, to advocate or promote gun control.”

We therefore call upon the Obama Administration to introduce legislation that overrides the Tiahrt amendments, mandates annual AFT reporting on gun violence in America, and permits the Centers for Disease Control and the National Institutes of Health to perform and fund research on gun violence in America.

Current copyright terms are much longer than necessary for promoting progress. Excessive copyright terms limit the usefulness of the works they cover without leading to the creation of more works.

I ask the government to limit copyright terms to a maximum of 10 years with no exceptions. Compared to current copyright terms 10 years may sound very short, but 10 years is a long time; it may still be too long. I also ask that currently active copyright terms all end within 10 years.

It is not society's duty to reward authors and artists for their creativity or hard work. Copyright should only exist as an incentive. The excessive monopoly terms must end.

Make the Metric system the standard in the United States, instead of the Imperial system.

http://wallpapers.free-review.net/wallpapers/21/Tape_Measure.jpg

The United States is one of the few countries left in the world who still have not converted to using the Metric System as a standardized system of measurement. Instead of going along with what the rest of the world uses, we stubbornly still adhere to using the imprecise Imperial Unit - despite the fact that practically every other country that we interact with uses Metric.

Why should we convert to using the Metric System? Because it's superior, less convoluted - everything is ordered in units of tens, while the chaotic arrangement of the Imperial System slows things down for us - not only in terms of education, but also businesses, science, foreign relations, and daily life.

Current education policy has taken the focus off the learner and the common sense out of education in public schools. By basing public school funding and educator evaluation decisions so heavily on standardized tests, the end product of an education is diminished. Instead of using tests to inform and empower professional educators in public schools, or focusing on developing capable and motivated life-long learners, policy is imposing standard goals and mandating a time consuming barrage of testing-locking teachers and students into a school year focused on data benchmarks instead of appropriate learning goals. To allow bad policies, for-profit testing and publishing companies, and school reform/privatization groups to further diminish our public schools is wrong.

It is the equivalent of repeatedly hitting the refresh button on a webpage. It is, in that way, no different than any "occupy" protest. Instead of a group of people standing outside a building to occupy the area, they are having their computer occupy a website to slow (or deny) service of that particular website for a short time.

Addressing the Legalization of Marijuana

By Gil Kerlikowske, Director of the Office of National Drug Control Policy:

Coming out of the recent election, it is clear that we're in the midst of a serious national conversation about marijuana.
At President Obama's request, the Justice Department is reviewing the legalization initiatives passed in Colorado and Washington, given differences between state and federal law.

http://project420.tv/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/Project420Logo_BIG.png



Barbara Walters:
Do you think that marijuana should be legalized?

President Obama:
Well, I wouldn't go that far. But what I think is that, at this point, Washington and Colorado, you've seen the voters speak on this issue. And as it is, the federal government has a lot to do when it comes to criminal prosecutions. It does not make sense from a prioritization point of view for us to focus on recreational drug users in a state that has already said that under state law that's legal.
…this is a tough problem because Congress has not yet changed the law. I head up the executive branch; we're supposed to be carrying out laws. And so what we're going to need to have is a conversation about how do you reconcile a federal law that still says marijuana is a federal offense and state laws that say that it's legal.
When you're talking about drug kingpins, folks involved with violence, people are who are peddling hard drugs to our kids in our neighborhoods that are devastated, there is no doubt that we need to go after those folks hard… it makes sense for us to look at how we can make sure that our kids are discouraged from using drugs and engaging in substance abuse generally. There is more work we can do on the public health side and the treatment side.
