The Arizona legislature has passed a bill that would allow businesses to discriminate against LGBT customers—or any other customers who they claim it would be against their religion to serve. Gov. Jan Brewer has until Tuesday to sign or veto the bill. She has not taken a position yet, despite having vetoed an earlier version last year. Right-wing bigots are pushing such “okay-to-discriminate” bills in state legislatures across the country, and we must make sure they lose in Arizona. Sign our petition urging Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer to say “no” to discrimination and veto SB 1062.

The Superbowl brings millions of dollars into the economy of the state where it is played. Fans who are traveling to be a part of the Superbowl deserve to know they will be safe from discrimination from local businesses. Many of the sponsors who spend a great deal of money to advertise during the Superbowl to fans watching at home are companies who have anti-discrimination policies in the workplace. Some of these companies also actively promote equality. NFL Football is one of the things that brings Americans of all races, genders, sexual orientations, and religions together. It makes sense for the NFL to stand for inclusiveness and against discrimination of any kind.

Legalization of discrimination against anyone is a clear violation of our Constitution and everything this country stands for. We should be working to move forward, not working to enact policies that take us back 70 years.

I am starting this petition because enough is enough. Discrimination has been in our country for too long. We need to take a stand now and say NO. We will not let you discriminate us and the ones we love.

The NFL should not openly support such a discriminatory practice. Thousands -- including LGBT people-- will visit AZ for the Super Bowl. By keeping the Super Bowl in AZ, the NFL is saying it's OK for some of their fans to be discriminated against.

Respect-4-Respect Petition is an effort to speak out about the Stand your Ground law specific Harm’s Way effect on African American. WE know it is African Americans, African American teenagers NOW; but, this law will claim other citizenry as time goes by with the same trigger-happy rule-of-thumb. Stand your Ground legally promotes lawlessness, discrimination, stalking, profiling, myths, criminalizing, privilege-to-kill and growing threat of by-design murder. The two recent trials in the state of Florida, in-the-court cases, for the death of two African American teenagers, Trayvon Martin, 17 years and Jordan Davis, 17 years proves that the law Stand your Ground is extremely bias and racial in its intent and implementation. It said the teens were automatically guilty even though they were not the perpetrators. It has sent a message of one-side law and privilege of the Caucasian race dictates rights (human-civil-legal) and one can shoot-and-kill without reprisal. Stand your Ground law fails on many moral and ethical counts. For this petition, we call upon our United States Attorney General Eric Holder and the U.S. Department of Justice to address the harm’s way of the Stand your Ground law in Florida and across the USA. Further, we seek our U. S. Constitution for guidance and enforcement. Stand your Ground law fails on behalf of: • “Citizens of each State shall be entitled to all Privileges and Immunities of Citizen in the several states” (U.S. Constitution - Article IV, Section 2); • “. . . and to petition their Government for a redress of grievances” (U.S. Constitution - Amendment I); • No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any persons within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws (U. S. Constitution – Amendment XIV, Section 1). We summon with urgency through this RESPECT-4-RESPECT Petition for immediate REPEAL of the Stand your Ground law (s) in the USA. We want as MANY signers as we can get to sign. TELL a friend, neighbor, organizations, family member and associates. Post "Embed the PETITION" Widget on your website. This PETITION starts automatically with 50. Let's get that number TODAY. May we have your sign to make this happen? NOTE: MILWAUKEE PROFESSIONALS ASSOCIATION LLC is NOT asking or seeking funds of any kind. We want you to sign our petition of REPEAL STAND YOUR GROUND LAW. Thank you.

Medical marijuana patients in CO have been LAWFULLY growing cannabis at home for 14 years and after passage of A64 in 2012, anyone over 21 can also lawfully grow cannabis at home. The article in the Boulder Magazine accuses lawful growers in Nederland of illegal cannabis gardens and a $5-$8 million dollar underground market with no evidence to back up their claims.

I live in AZ and I can't believe this could actually happen in 2014. It is frightening to think of the consequences. This not only effects gays but anyone who a business owner finds does not "meet" their religious standards. A Mormon family, a Muslim, an Orthodox Jew.....We are all now at risk of this twisted discrimination under the guise of "religious freedom".

UUK - condemn the discriminatory surveillance of non-EU students in British universities, and act to stop UK universities acting as UK border guards.

My daughter was placed and approved for adoption in Benton County last week. This was against my wishes. The judge and all parties involved acknowledged me as the biological father. I signed the putative father registry prior to the filing of the petition for adoption and prior to the birth of my daughter, but this did not ensure my rights as the father. The adoption agency involved assisted the mother in hiding the pregnancy, as did the adopting party. The adoption agency brags on its website that adoptions in Arkansas are much easier and only take six days to finalize as opposed to sixty or ninety days in most states.

In 50 years the student leaders and participating students that led the way in the Civil Rights Movement of 1963-65 have gone unrecognized. This commemorative event will be the first acknowledgment of the pivotal role played by these 1,000 students in bringing the full reality of freedom to all Americans.

In Uganda, Africa, the new anti gay law not only penalizes homosexual activities also criminalizes being homosexual. Young men are forced out of their homes and beaten. There are reports of some being stoned to death or burned alive by mobs. Medical services are denied to those having HIV or any other medical condition if they are supposed to be gay, even doctors are forced to report gays to authorities and then are sent to jail. Neighbors are encouraged to denounce gays in their neighborhood as if they were criminals, and report to authorities to be put flogged and put in jail for years in inhumane conditions. The terror is widespread and incensed by a hate and homophobic rhetoric in the Government and by extremists and religious zealots. The horror living men and women in Uganda is similar to those lived by Jews in Nazi Germany. This is not a gay issue is a humanitarian issue! A human rights and right to live issue!
