• Tell Our Leaders - Stop The Gun Insanity!
    Enough is enough. We may not be able to prevent every act of gun violence in this country, but we have to take action to set this country back on a sane path of responsible gun laws. Americans demand that our leaders stand up to the NRA and gun lobby. Yes we have the 2nd Amendment. But there is no excuse for allowing anyone to buy a military-style weapon at a gunshow without a background check, or supporting laws such as the recent one in Michigan that would allow anyone to carry a concealed weapon into a school. It's utter insanity and its got to stop.

  • Ban Automatic Guns Now
    Given the gun violence in the past week-first in Oregon and yesterday in Connecticut, it is time to ban all assault weapons. How many more people must die before we take action to ban all automatic and semi-automatic weapons?

  • School Security!
    The horrific act commited in Newtown Conn. is and must be the last straw. If our lawmakers will not take a moral stand against the NRA and other gun promotors, then we must act. Without the ability to know who is armed and ready to commit an act like this, we must at least have a fighting chance to protect our children. We must demand at the state, local and private sectors, armed security at all schools.

  • Repeal Second Amendment
    Considering the rash of mass murders in the last decade and the current spirit of American society, I believe that the context of the Second Amendment has changed so radically that it must be repealed. Life is more sacred than the Second Amendment.

  • When will Congress take a cut in pay and benefits?
    Since most of our citizens have had hard times in the past few years, I think it's high time for our so called leaders to take cuts like WE have! It will not only help our overburdened budget but also might restore our faith in them.

  • Gun ownership
    Make gun ownership the same as getting a drivers license. The police will test you on gun safety ,and a psychologist will test for emotional stability. It won't prevent all crime, but it will make everyone aware of their resonsibility to their fellow man. Make this retroactive to current gun owners as well. If you have a gun, you must have a license to possess it.

  • Update the 2nd Amendment
    We need to stop future tragedies like the one that happened in Newton, Connecticut. We, the people have had enough of senseless violence involving guns! Sign this petition to start the amendment process to change the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution to reflect the needs of the modern age. The Second Amendment was designed at a time when militias were needed to protect against tyrannical governments, not to protect individuals from criminal action. We want to keep weapons designed for hunting animals and outlaw all weapons designed with the sole intent to kill other human beings.
