• Dick's Sporting: Rifle Sales Suspension
    Dick's Sporting Goods suspended sales of modern sporting rifles in respect for Sandy Hook victims. We would like to thank them for their leadership and request that they continue this suspension, and that they continue to work with citizens, other retailers, and law-makers in working for a safer country for all of us.

  • Lets have reasonable laws on the safe use of guns
    In the wake of the Connecticut massacre, it is time for the country to get behind sane and responsible laws regarding the use of firearms. There is no need for automatic weapons or large clips of ammunition. We can get this done.

  • Newtown is the result of our Children's Mental Health System
    Children's Mental Health is the base cause of the Newtown tragedy. Access to certain types of weapons is a means, an enabler and tightening that will help. But to really do something lasting and have a greater impact on the problem, addressing inadequacies in the Children's Mental Health System is essential.

    We want to have armed marshalls on duty in every school in America. The shooters of our innocent children like the gunman at Sandy Hook need to know that they will be met with force if they try to gun down innocents. We have them on all airplane flights since 911 and it serves as a very good deterrent.

  • Ban Westboro Baptist Church from public events. They should be judged as a hate crime group.
    They should not be allowed to show their hatred, at military funerals. It is a disgrace. They should be reprimanded for hate crimes. My son is in the US Navy. Families should be able to mourn, without these people shouting awful words at them.

  • "Guard" Dogs should go to Public Schools
    Lots of people have guard dogs or watchdogs! Imagine a dog who is trained to attack a wild student/crazy who is carrying an assault weapon? A pair or trio of dogs should be able to save lots of student lives. They could also be mascots, grade by grade. Imagine these dogs also can smell drugs.

  • Pictures, names of killers to cease in media
    In light of the latest horrific tradegy in Newtown, CT. and the massacre in Aurora, CO, I believe that the publishing of any personal information about the suspect should be ceased by all types of media. This action would prevent the horrible experience of seeing the face of these killers unexpectedly by families of the victims. This move would also help the families of the perpetrators who are in most cases, victims too.

  • ASSAULT WEAPON ADVOCATE EXPOSURE
    We have had incessant photos of the Connecticut shooter and his victims but none of those who have allowed the ban to expire or who allow the proliferation of assault weapons in this country. Why not incessantly show pictures of those government officials on television as well? They are directly complicit to the horror in Connecticut.

  • Gun Tracking and Zoning System
    There has been a lot of demand for us to do "something" about guns in the United States, but I have not heard many specifics. This petition contains the initial draft of my idea to use modern day technology to deal with our gun problems.

  • Gun Control
    We need to have some form of control put on the sale of automatic or semi automatic weapons and ammo. We have the right to bear arms, but not the right to be able to kill scores of people with a single magazine. At the time of the Constitution the Founding Fathers could not have anticipated that. Sell single shot weapons only. Ban armor piercing bullets also.
