Intelligent control of guns, high speed cartridges , ammunition and ancillary products20 innocent children were brutally massacred, it could have been any of our children. The capacity of the weapons used facilitated the deaths of 26 people within minutes. There is neither a reason for these weapons to be in the hands of civilians nor a justification. Let us not allow the loss of these angels to pass without action. We will go on with our lives, but the loss and horror to the families. classmates, community and first responders is just beginning. Let us ensure this does not happen again.7 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Mary Kerns

SUPPORT ZAXBY'S WORKERSI was terminated from Zaxby's Restaurant on Allen Rd. after working there for 7.5 years. I was hired there in 2005 as an assistant manager, and after 1 year became a general manager, which I remained for the remaining 6.5 years. I was terminated on August 25, 2012. I was told by one of the owners that I was fired because I wasn't working the required 50 hr. work week (which I've always done). I worked more than 50 hrs. every week, and sometimes I didn't take a full 7 days vacation. My job was my first priority, next to church. I would never do anything to jeopardize that. I've always worked hard at everything I do. I was known as the strict manager; following rules and going by the book. I witnessed unfair treatment of crew and managers because of the color of their skin, so after complaining to one of the owners back in April 2012 my job was threatened. After pleading my case I received an apology and I was told everything was ok and I still had my job. But even though he apologized and acted as though he understood, he held on to this and terminated me on aug. 25, 2012, which was four months later. He probably wouldn't have kept me that long, but he had just fired another black manager. So all the general managers employed now are white. They are very disrepectful to crew, curse at them, date them, use racial slurs and target black individuals by drug testing them to get rid of them, even if there are white individuals coming to work "high" and known drug users. They basically do whatever they want and nothing happens to them. This has been going on for years and it has to stop now!93 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Stacey E Green

We Won't Back DownSign this petition and encourage allowing the fiscal cliff deadline to hit, and the President's re-election promise to allow the Bush-era tax breaks for the wealthy to expire. The deadline draws near, December 31, 2012. This may take sacrifice on the part of middle class citizens, but it is past time to stand our ground.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Catherine Hornbeck

Verified Vote of NRA Members on Background ChecksMost NRA members are regular people, Moms and Dads, responsible gun owners who are concerned as we all are about public safety. I would like to hear their voices and see if they match up with Wayne LaPierre, NRA Executive Vice President on Friday. He came out and blamed everyone else, taking no responsibility whatsoever. His attitude was the epitome of white privilege and entitlement. He was cold and defensive. So, if he speaks for the NRA, we need to know. Is the NRA a democratic organization, or has it been taken over by right wing extremists?2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Kris Ellisor

Safe Rooms for ClassroomsSchool massacres must end. The NRA says 'arm everybody.' Legislators want tighter restrictions on assault weapons, magazines or ammunition. Why not make our children's classrooms safer instead. Most have been constructed of cement block already, so solid core or steel doors with magnetic locks could make them virtually impenetrable. External lock-down from the principle's office or a card swipe from within the classroom could prevent the bloodshed and death like we've seen in our schoolhouse shootings2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Teresa Pyles

Anti-NRA Alliance for Ban on Assault Weapons and TAX on AmmunitionGun Violence is epidemic in the US and the National Rifle Association holds far too much power over Congress. Poll after poll shows that Americans support gun control. Let's take back power, defeat the NRA, and vow to campaign for politicians who rally to protect Americans and their children. We can stop the NRA by building a national Anti-NRA Alliance. Sign this petition pledge to support legislators who oppose gun violence and who support restrictions on gun sales and high taxes on ammunition.169 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Alice Bullard

Tax Guns, Fund School SecurityI want my kids to come home safe at the end of each school day. With education budgets squeezed everywhere, schools don't have the resources to adequately protect our children from tragic events like the mass killing in Newtown, Connecticut. We need a revenue stream to secure our children's safety.127 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Scott Helke

Repeal the Second AmendmentWhereas the Second Amendment was crafted at a time when the U.S. had neither national standing army nor the States a national guard; whereas the frontier and wilderness conditions of 18th- and 19th-century America no longer apply; whereas the authors of the Bill of Rights and the Constitution had no concept of the types of 21st-century weaponry that is readily available to private citizens: it is long past time to repeal the Second Amendment.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Irving H.
