Mandatory illegal substance testing for fatal vehicle accidentsMy son was struck and killed by a driver. Even though the driver was apparently not under the influence of alcohol, does not mean he was not under the influence of a possible other substance. In Florida it is not mandatory to do blood testing on fatal vehicle accidents. This is a petition to make it such. Just because someone is not on alcohol does not mean he isn't impaired by a possible slew of other mind impairing substances.27 of 100 SignaturesCreated by James Scarberry

FREE DEWAYNE TUGLEI'm writing you today because I believe in mystics and that everyone, regardless of past history, deserves a fair chance. I am specifically speaking about our unfair judicial system in Mississippi. I am not an attorney or a judge but a loved one of a man that's been wrongly convicted but our justice system. This one man's story should definitely give you the courage to stand for what's right and free an innocent man. This man is Dewayne Ledale Tugle. Dewayne is currently serving a 38 year sentence for a crime he proclaimed his innocence of from the start and still does to this day. After previously serving time for a charge committed at the age of 17, Dewayne was released only to be charged with attempted armed robbery, possession of a firearm by a felon and felon fleeing, within a month of being free. Dewayne was never identified in the photo line up and the victims actually picked someone else who fit the description given by the victims. Tugle was released on bail and lead a church going productive life during this time. Months later he was indicted for felony fleeing and possession of a firearm by a felon but was not indicted on the robbery charge because he was not identified, still the victims of the robbery were allowed to testify to seeing a black man with a gun even though they couldn't identify him to be Tugle. This gun, not only was never found on Tugle's possession but his finger prints were no where on the weapon. After a mistrial on those charges the district attorney requested that the charges not be dismissed and allow him a chance at a conviction and the judge did just that. Months later at the hearing in the judges chambers all charges were dismissed and Tugle was told he was free, Not a week later Dewayne was picked up on a Capias warrant, indicted on felony fleeing and possession of a firearm by a felon (dismissed charges) and 2 counts of armed robbery stemming from the previous charges where he was never identified on, the victims were allowed to make an in court identification, changing their statements and identifying Dewayne now as the assailant, this being two years later Dewayne beat one of the armed robbery charges but was found guilty on everything else and sentence to 38 years. Tell me where is the justice in this, I only ask you to think of Dewayne as if he was one of your loved ones and how would this affect you. He has not found any justice in the appeal process and needs the love and support of family and friends. Read his case and see for yourself. May God Bless you and help Free Dewayne Ledale Tugle.70 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Cynthia Saddler

Ask Electoral College to Not Vote Until Russian Hacks of 2016 Election to Help Donald Trump Are F...The CIA has "high confidence" the Russian government hacked our 2016 election to help elect Donald Trump. Any knowledge or cooperation from Trump would be an impeachable offense, resulting in a Constitutional crisis. Our Electoral College must not certify him until a full investigation is completed and made public.5,765 of 6,000 SignaturesCreated by Harvey Wasserman

STOP THE EPIDEMIC OF PARENTAL ALIENATION NOW! Make Parental Alienation a Crime Against a Child an...We the Undersigned Call Upon the U.S. Senate / U.S. House / U.S. Congress of the United States of America to Stop Parental Alienation by Making it a Crime Punishable by Law. "Parental alienation" refers primarily to the manipulation and brainwashing of a child that a parent resorts to in order to exclude the other parent from the life of the child. For more helpful information on Parental Alienation please visit our Facebook page. https://www.facebook.com/parentalalienationsupportandawareness/ PARENTAL ALIENATION: Is the process, and the result, of the psychological manipulation of a child into showing unwarranted fear, disrespect or hostility towards a parent and/or other family members. It is a distinctive and widespread form of psychological abuse and family violence —towards both the child and the rejected family members—that occurs almost exclusively in association with family separation or divorce (particularly where legal action is involved) and that undermines core principles of both the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child. Most commonly, the primary cause is a parent wishing to exclude another parent from the life of their child, but other family members or friends, as well as professionals involved with the family (including psychologists, lawyers and judges), may contribute significantly to the process. It often leads to the long-term, or even permanent, estrangement of a child from one parent and other family members and, as a particularly adverse childhood experience, results in significantly increased risks of both mental and physical illness for children. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parental_alienation Parental alienation is pathogenic parenting. It is a form of child abuse performed by a hostile aggressive parent against the other, targeted parent, using their child(ren) as a weapon during a child custody dispute between unwed, separated, divorcing or divorced parents. http://www.alienationischildabuse.org/ LOW PARENTAL ALIENATION: The “Low Parental Alienation” label applies to parents who direct negative behavior or comments at the other parent in front of the child, but who regret the outbursts, worry about their affect on the child, and take steps to explain the inappropriate actions. Many parents will occasionally engage in low-level alienating behavior, but these parents recognize that the child needs to have a normal, healthy, loving relationship with the other parent. These parents know their occasional outbursts are wrong, and have a healthy enough attitude to correct their mistakes. They may not always want to do the right thing, but they usually do the right thing without regret because they know what’s right is what’s best for their child. MODERATE PARENTAL ALIENATION: The “Moderate Parental Alienation” label applies to parents who mean well; who believe their child should have a normal, healthy relationship with the other parent, but who also believe that the relationship shouldn’t come at their expense or in any way interfere with their life. Parents who engage in moderate alienating behavior usually react to some real or perceived slight from the other parent. Moderate-level alienators have a hard time controlling their emotions and will tend to have more emotional issues than someone who falls into the low-level alienator category. The all out assault on the other parent usually lasts as long as their emotional reaction lasts. When these parents get over their anger, they stop the alienating behavior and move on. While they may not go out of their way to facilitate the child’s relationship with the other parent, at least they don’t sabotage the relationship. That is, until the next real or perceived slight from the other parent. Then the alienating behavior begins again. SEVERE PARENTAL ALIENATION: The “Severe Parental Alienation” label applies to parents with a mission – destroy the previous healthy and loving relationship between the child and the child’s other parent. These alienators are obsessed and relentless. They never get tired, stop scheming or pass up an opportunity to reinforce their destructive message to the child. They conscript friends, family members, neighbors, co-workers, the police and social service agencies into their battle against the targeted parent. When severe alienators are in the throes of an alienation campaign, the child is both a weapon to be used against the targeted parent and a tool to make them feel emotionally complete. They rarely stop to consider how their actions affect the child. If they do consider the child, severe alienators quickly address those thoughts with simple behavior-reinforcing platitudes such as, “I know best,” “Whatever it takes,” and “It’s the other parent’s fault.” Severe alienators are neither aware of, nor interested in, the confusion and conflicted emotions raging inside the child. These parents are only interested in satisfying their own unhealthy internally driven needs. Once the alienation is complete and the parent/child relationship is destroyed, unsatisfied severe alienators may continue using the child to exact further revenge on the previously loved spouse. Together parent and child can run up unnecessary bills aimed at leaving the targeted parent in debt. They can make false physical or sexual abuse allegations aimed at branding the targeted parent an abusive parent or sex offender. They can make false statements to the police in an attempt to get the targeted parent arrested and jailed. Severe alienating parents tap a bottomless source of creativity that only hatred, obsession and vindictiveness can fuel. http://afamilysheartbreak.com/what-is-parental-alienation/ STOP THE EPIDEMIC OF PARENTAL ALIENATION NOW! Make Parental Alienation a Crime Against a Child and Punishable by Law. Thank You for taking the time to address the issue presented.

Demand that the Federal Correctional Institution at Englewood provide Jeffrey Sterling with neede...Jeffrey Sterling, who was convicted of espionage for sharing a small amount of information with the journalist James Risen about a plot to start a new war in Iran, has been incarcerated for over a year in the Federal Correctional Institution at Englewood. He was a CIA employee who was passed over for a promotion based solely on his race and filed a complaint against the CIA. As a consequence, he has been vilified, tried, convicted and imprisoned. His plight is dire at this point. He has suffered symptoms of heart distress for several months without being allowed to leave the prison for a cardiac consultation and testing. While he was promised that he would get this care by August 29, nothing has happened to this date. Activists are calling the jail and the Bureau of Prisons regularly and Arn Menconi, the Green Party candidate for senate in Colorado, has held two vigils outside the prison, all to no avail. Even our senator, Michael Bennet, has written and demanded a copy of Jeffrey’s medical records which FCI claims to have lost. Please sign my petition to demand that Jeffrey receive the medical care that is his human right. You can email Warden Denham at [email protected] . Also please call FCI Englewood at 303-763-4300 and the Bureau of Prisons (ask for Sarah Revel) at 913-621-3939. Jeffrey’s inmate number is 38338-044. Thank you! Jeffrey's wife Holly, who is very distraught and reaching out to everyone who can help, will be very pleased at the show of support while we await a positive result of our continued pressure.46 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Laura Avant

Bring Ralayzia Home!On Nov. 7th, Ralayzia Sayuri Taylor, a Black Trans Woman, was stabbed in the back 3 times and beaten with a hatchet at 10:30am in Arbor Glen Park in Charlotte. Though she was severely injured, Ralayzia survived and was able to stay with family in Ohio during the first few days of her recovery. On Nov. 17th, 10 days after surviving physical assault and battery, the CMPD issues warrants for Ralayzia's arrest. She was arrested on charges of statutory sex offense and indecent liberties with a minor based on accusations about the events leading up to her assault. CMPD then labeled her as a fugitive for leaving the state when in reality Ralayzia just needed a safe place away from Charlotte to heal physically, mentally and emotionally. Currently, Ralayzia is in jail in Cincinnati, Ohio with an extradition charge to Charlotte, meaning the Hamilton County Sherriff"s office will not release her until she is transported back to Charlotte, NC and into CMPD Custody. Ralayzia is locked in a cage in Ohio for daring to survive a hate crime. Let us Remember: .) Trans Women of Color who have been locked up after surviving hate crimes, such as CeCe Mcdonald and Merci Chrisette. .) Before Ralayzia's arrest, HB2 was passed in North Carolina to target and marginalize the trans and gender non-conforming community. .) Two months ago, CMPD murdered Keith Lamont Scott, murdered Justin Carr, framed Rayquan Borum for the murder of Justin Carr, and now has imprisoned Ralayzia. Yet another black body for CMPD to exploit, to murder, and to feed to the prison industrial complex. Ralayzia's arrest is another example of how trans women of color are criminalized and dehumanized. Ralayzia's Trans Womanhood IS NOT A CRIME! Black Trans Women Lives Matter and we must bring our sister home and free her from jail! #RahRahGoneStand #BlackTransWomenlivesmatter #NOJusticeNOPeace327 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Dhruv Pathak
