Save American Lives:A good example of how insidious the NRA actions have been, may be best demonstrated by the TIHART amendment. As a result of the TIHART amendment, the American people are not privy to the information available in the ATF's [alcohol, tobacco and firearms agency] records. As a result, the American people cannot become aware of the data that clearly shows that the NRA is hiding the real facts so that the firearms industry and their lobbyists can prosper. It is NOT most of the NRA members, but an influential few that are killing Americans to pad their own pockets. We are ALL affected by this issue.2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by shaun

Medical MalpracticeDefective implanted devices which have a recall but the affected patients are not told by their physicians or through the media until the damage has been done. My bladder neck mesh was recalled in 1999 but lawsuits cannot be filed before the year 2000. PLEASE investigate the FDA's practices as I am now completely disabled after discovering an additional diagnosis of endometrial cancer. Medical device manufacturers need to be held accountable for their malpractice methods that "quietly" pay off those informed affected but neglect to sound the alarm to all their remaining victims. My quality of life has diminished and could be permanently destroyed. No amount of money for pain and suffering could compensate me or my loved ones for at the age of 60, I will never be able to do any substantial work or possibly ever work again.7 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Roseanne Hernandez

Ammo ControlWith the advancement of non lethal ammunition we should push for legislation of live ammo restriction. Non lethal ammunition such as rubber bullets can be used for personal defense of self and home without violating the second amendment. Saving the lives of countless people if we can begin to push for live ammunition to be restricted to just hunters, shooting ranges, special police units(i.e. swat), and the military.5 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Jon Bethea

Ban Assault WeaponsI 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.2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by CathyDStacy

Firearm Liability InsuranceIn 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 narrative12 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Mark Unwin

Gun victim compensationCar 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 assistance120 of 200 SignaturesCreated by joe Genova

Steve Sanetti & the NSSF: Support Comprehensive Background ChecksThe 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.5,265 of 6,000 SignaturesCreated by Jake Snyder (Second Amendment Sanity)
