STOP RICO LAW FROM BEING PASSED ON STATE LEVELIf RICO gets passed on the State level I assure you all our black children will be at risk for unfair targeting under this act. Illinois is a corrupt state as it is and with entrusting them with this type of power it will surely be abused. Every black person will be labeled a "known gang member" and would then be subject to prosecution under this law. Sign to stop this NOW!!!208 of 300 SignaturesCreated by ERYKAPAC

Save a LifePro-Life. Imagine a cure for cancer, or some other disease. God had sent us that such person in the form of an unborn child only to be snuffed out by abortion. The aborted child, a precious gift, grows up and discovers a cure for breast cancer. A woman's health issue. Please protect all life in our constitution.2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Thomas John Stasko

Meditation in Prison• With over 2 million prisoners, USA is on the top of the chart for total number of prisoners, holding 23 % of total global inmate population on the planet. • 67 % of people released from prison are re-arrested within 3 years of their release. Why Meditation in Prison: Prisoners share common characteristics, although they differ in age and social background. Most of them are highly impulsive and have low self-control. Meditation gives people a conscious choice and chance to become aware and in control of their behavior. Kundalini Yoga & Meditation are magnificent shortcut to restoring power, harmony & energetic balance in the human body and living happy, stress –free, fulfilled life. Successful Examples of Meditation in Prison Meditation has brought to the American correctional system /the practice has also been successfully introduced in Mexico, Australia, as well as in US women’s prison/ a way out of the debate about how to administer change from the outside by giving directly to the inmate the responsibility and means to change from within. Outcomes of Kundalini Yoga & Meditation National researches conducted over a decade in the US, show that meditation the practices lead to : • Improved executive functioning: o Improved self-control and self-awareness o Improved attention skills • Reduced stress and anxiety: o Decreased anxiety o Decreased blood pressure • Reduced misbehavior/aggression • Improved attention skills and social skills • Increased positive emotions We believe integration of Kundalini Yoga & Meditation in Prisons will contribute to improved self-control, self-awareness and decreased levels of aggression of prisoners and future crime prevention! This will create much more humane and effective prison system. We believe that every person deserves a chance for healing, in order to build a free, safe, healthy and happier future society!

Tell Trinity Wall Street: Don't jail Occupy activistsOne of America's wealthiest churches is trying to send Occupy Wall Street activists to prison. Last year, Occupy Wall Street sought sanctuary on vacant property owned by Trinity Wall Street Episcopal Church when they were evicted from Zuccotti Park. The church's rector, ignoring pleas from Christian leaders like Archbishop Desmond Tutu, had the occupiers arrested and charged with criminal trespass. Those arrested, including a retired Episcopal bishop, are scheduled to go on trial next week. They're facing up to 90 days in prison, but so far Trinity's leaders are cooperating with the prosecution and falsely claiming that the situation is now out of their control. So a group of prominent New York City pastors is organizing a last-minute prayer vigil seeking to have the charges dropped. We're hoping to give them a petition signed by over 10,000 people to deliver to Trinity Wall Street -- will you add your name?1,769 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Michael Sherrard, Faithful America
