• Ban Assault Weapons
    I have personally experieced a home invasion. It was not an assault weapon. but with a single shot a body can be killed. It is not necessary to blow a body to bits.

  • Firearm Liability Insurance
    In light of the recent incident in Connecticut and others involving firearms, I am struck with how little the issue of financial liability is mentioned in the owning, safeguarding and usage of this class of hazardous machines. Instead of the narrative of whether a citizen should have the 2nd Amendment right to own a firearm, and all the political and emotional dialog preventing solutions, I propose a new narrative

  • Gun victim compensation
    Car owners are required to register their cars and carry automobile insurance to cover any damages their cars may cause. Guns can be even more deadly. Gun owners should not be treated more favorably than car owners. In the event of death or injury, victims and their families should be compensated through insurance instead of being forced to rely on public assistance

  • Steve Sanetti & the NSSF: Support Comprehensive Background Checks
    The National Shooting Sports Foundation is located in Newtown, CT. Even after the devastating loss of innocent life right here in their own town, this organization refuses to support federal universal background checks. The NSSF is the #2 Gun Lobby in the US. The vast majority of Americans are in favor of federal legislation requiring universal background checks that would close the "gun show loophole" in every state, as well as other "private" transactions that allow people to obtain firearms without a check. The NSSF is fighting against such a change. We demand the NSSF tell Congress and Newtown that it has had a change of heart and supports universal background check legislation.

  • Remove Gov. Hickenlooper from Co.
    This petition voices the opinions of the people of Colorado. This petition is started in opposition to the new gun control laws that have now plagued Colorado. We are petitioning to have Gov. Hickenlooper removed from office. And replaced with a more traditional gun friendly candidate. Hickenlooper has said our opinions and voices dont matter. Show him he was wrong to think that and it will cost him his job!

  • Topeka and DC Legislators: Kansans also want sane gun laws!
    Right now Congress is on the verge of caving on the three measures we thought could be passed after the Newtown massacre: universal background checks, a ban on assault weapons, and a ban on high-capacity magazines. Although a vast majority of Americans favor all three, we might get none of them, just more guns – in schools! It’s because lawmakers are listening to gun manufacturers via their mouthpiece, the NRA, the lobby with the big bucks. We must speak right now. Sign the petition - it will take a minute. This time it is aimed at all our Senators and Representatives in DC, plus our electeds in the Kansas statehouse. Tell them we don’t want a society that celebrates ever more guns when statistics and costs showing their accidental damage makes us all less safe.

  • Repeal 15 USC § 7902 - Prohibition on bringing of qualified civil liability actions in Federal or...
    Much has been debated around gun safety legislation. All pending legislation attempts to control the acts of individuals while none pursues the manufacturers. I want Congress to repeal the 2005 law immunizing gun manufacturers from product liabilty.
