The Army has yet to rule her death murder-rape, so her memory and honor are tainted as a suicide. This was not a suicide and the military is covering it up, because they do not want to own up to their error! Help put pressure on our elected officials to force the army to do the right thing. Please sign this petition and learn more here http://youtu.be/hp4eZ-BrghE ~ This petition needs 100,000 signatures and will be submitted to Sen. Carl Levin (D-MI), the chair of the Senate Committee on Armed Services, which has direct authority and oversight over all military matters on behalf of the people of the United States.

What allows every great civilization the ability to thrive and prosper? The answer is finding a material that allows its user to evolve. This was true in the Stone Age, it was true in the Bronze Age, and it is was true in the Iron Age. The question remains has our evolution reached its ultimate potential? I would like to think that we have the ability to advance, however with the current laws and the Medias use of misinformation, we have proven that indeed, as a culture, that our ultimate potential may be forfeit. In 1937 the Bureau of Narcotics Commissioner Harry J Anslinger brought about accusations that Hemp needed to be banned because of its violent “effect on the degenerate races”. Yet in truth all the hemp in the world couldn’t get you high. So as a result, not only was Hemp banned, but Marijuana as well. Even though the AMA (American Medical Association) protested this ban, the current ban still exists for most states. So the question remains, why was hemp and marijuana banned? Is it because one acre of hemp can replace four acres of trees? Is it because NASA researchers have a fuel created from hemp that will eliminate between 50-70% of our oil consumption? Yes, these things are true. And let me remind you, hemp/marijuana more commonly referred to as cannabis, has the ability to be used in tens of thousands of applications. It is an alternative replacement for steel, it’s a replacement for wood, it’s a replacement for cotton, and the list goes on. Are you starting to get a sense of why it was banned, why Nixon brought about “The War on Drugs” to ensure that these corporations stayed in power? I know what your thinking, damn hippies! So let me tell you a story about a little girl by the name of Charlotte Figi. Charlotte suffers from a rare disease known as Dravet Syndrome also known as myoclonic epilepsy. This disease at one point in time caused Charlotte to have as many as 300 grand mal seizures a week. Desperate for a solution her father Matt did some research and found a boy with similar symptoms. He found that this young boy was given medical marijuana. Upon this discovery he turned to the Stanley Brothers in Colorado. The brothers were in the process of crossbreeding a strain of marijuana that was low in THC, the psychoactive compound found in marijuana, and high in CBD, also known as Cannabidoil, which is used to relieve convulsion, inflammation, anxiety, nausea, and inhibits the growth of cancer cell. Charlotte’s seizures went from 300 a week to 2-3 a month. Now are you really going to sit and pathetically attempt to defend the ban on Cannabis when this material has more potential to help our civilization than any other? Let’s look at this from another perspective, the economy. Where are the majority of our products made? It’s probably somewhere in Asia. Now I ask you, “What is the main reason prices have risen”? Does anyone really know? They say it’s because the materials needed to manufacture these products have increased in price. Did the Earth raise its prices? Doubtful, yet the shelf prices increase, and even though lowering the self price would increase sales, thus requiring more products to be made and enhancing the job market, the prices keep soaring. So how does Cannabis help? Hemp is very easy to grow, not to mention it reconstitutes the soil where it is grown, thus helping the soil recover from our conventional crops and pesticides. So let’s look at it this way, the average individual can grow an acre or less, with very little maintenance. From a manufacturing standpoint many new small businesses have the ability to rise up and create solutions for its use, even if the Copyright Office does get paid off to suppress their patents. Whether that be bricks, resins, or even beverages. But the best part is that these local businesses won’t need to order from large corporations or overseas, they’ll but need to go to the local Co-Op and purchase the hemp they need or just grow their own, as it can be grown most everywhere, and isn’t community what we are trying to get back to? But what this really does is put our countries financial edge back in the hands of the small business. What it really does it tell the rest of the worlds manufactures that sub-par materials will no longer be accepted! So with that I leave you to think about this, the Department of Justice has declined to take actions against Colorado and Washington State. There are approximately 15 states that have already put medical marijuana to use. It is proven that the initial law to get marijuana banned was done so though the guise of racism. The government used its judicial powers to help promote the financial growth of private corporations by banning cannabis, which in itself is a blatant insult to the freedom of choice that American’s consider an inalienable right. This being a relative fact since it contradicts our ability to hold sway on our own evolution as well as the cleanliness of our environment. And lastly, we know marijuana has opened the door to understanding the brain in not only humans but animals as well. This is done through the discovery of the endogenous cannabinoids; anandamide and 2-AG. It is these two chemicals that help the brain regulate and tune its own synaptic inputs. So what I want this petition to accomplish is to get each individual state, just as I want Kentucky to do with this one, and that is to fight for the legalization of all Cannabis products. I want the people of Kentucky to hold a public vote, not a private or sealed ballot vote, but a public vote where the People, the population itself, can be recognized. For this is the only way that the tally will not suffer the manipulation of corporations or be refuted by those who are in fact fascist and philosophically debilitating, which in my opinion is the only true way to ensure that the government doesn’t cheat its people. And indeed I encourage all other states to follow suit and tell Britain and the rest of the...

A little over two weeks ago, I was hit by a car while crossing Greenpoint's McGuinness Boulevard en route home. Last night, a friend shared a photograph online of ambulances parked on McGuinness where a pedestrian had been struck and killed by two cars -- just two blocks from where I had been hit. I was very lucky. 32-year-old Nicole Detweiler was not. With nearby schools, increases to Greenpoint's population, and cyclists, McGuinness Boulevard needs speed and security cameras to be installed as soon as possible to hold speeding drivers accountable for their dangerous actions.

This petition is intended to influence all 50 U.S. States and the District of Columbia. I am a U.S. Air Force Desert Storm Veteran who currently serves in the U.S Air Force Reserves. This is my TRUTH. Jaelen and Faith Edge are my children. They were alienated from me for almost eight years. During that time I got incarcerated in a U.S. jail FOR PAYING child support, mislead into supervised visitation, judicially ROBBED of my savings and courtroom ALIENATED from my children. I had only petitioned the Cobb County Georgia Superior Court for a divorce and regular visitation of my autistic son and toddler daughter. Jaelen and Faith Edge were later murdered by their mother AFTER a Superior Court Judge called Marilyn Kay Woody-Edge a Parental Alienator and then REFUSED to give me full custody of my children or incarcerate her. I received FULL CUSTODY of my children from a California funeral home. Despite my best efforts to be a part of my children’s lives, I ended up being portrayed as a deadbeat dad who had deserted his children. A deadbeat dad who did not pay child support and should be locked away; A deadbeat dad who could not properly care for his autistic son without special training; A deadbeat dad who needed to be supervised by a Parental Supervision Service; A deadbeat dad who was good enough to serve his country but not good enough to be a part of his children’s lives. In years before filing for a divorce I had spent regular quality time with both of my children. I did my best to give them a good active childhood. I maintained a military security clearance, attended college part time and worked a decent job. I had never been accused of domestic violence, I had never been incarcerated and I had not needed supervision to be able to spend time with my children. Within the first year of my notifying Marilyn of my intent to divorce her all of that changed. Marilyn Woody had deserted our marriage almost three years prior to me filing for a divorce. The reason I decided to divorce was because there was no opportunity to repair our relationship and due to her families influence she and I could not agree on how best to rear my autistic son. She thought there was a magic cure for Autism and her family supported her in that. I did not believe that there was any cure for Autism and I only wanted to mitigate my son’s autism with speech, logic and physical type therapies. Marilyn had expressed her interest to take my son for alternative therapies and I disagreed. I later asked for a divorce after I discovered that she had charged up my equity line of credit and a credit card at an alternative medicine clinic. After asking for the divorce Marilyn almost immediately started making excuses to keep me from spending time with my son or daughter alone. She first started making ultimatums that she come to my home or on trips for overnight visits with the children. Although I wasn’t comfortable with the idea I thought it best to just go along with it to spend time with my children. I loved my children and at that point I would have compromised for them. However the compromise was short lived. The time apart helped me to see many things. I started to see her as spoiled and selfish. I did not see her in the same light that had brought us together. I did not want to pursue any relationship with her other than being friends for the betterment of my children. Marilyn was glossing over the fact that I had asked for a divorce so I told her a second time. Thereafter she immediately stopped my son from having overnight visits with me and started trying to persuade my daughter the same. The difference between the two children’s response to Marilyn’s early attempts to isolate or brainwash them; was that my daughter could verbally express exactly what she wanted and my son could not because he was nonverbal. I had strong bonds with both of my children. By the time they could walk they had spent a lot of time with me and done a lot of things with me. They knew that I was supposed to be with them and vice versa. My son like all children his age wanted his mom and dad to be together whereas my daughter had always known us not to live together. Jaelen was easily persuaded by his mom Faith was not. Before the alienation Jaelen had spent a lot of time hanging out with me. We took road trips to the beach, I pushed him around in his kettle car, we fished, played video games, and had a great time together. Every time Jaelen would see me I could see that he wanted so badly to leave with me. Marilyn made Jaelen’s efforts to leave his grandparents home so dramatic that he began to choose the path of least disappointment. For example Jaelen would crawl up into my truck look around for a bit before waving for his mom to come with us and if she did not come to the vehicle, he would kiss his sister, hug me and go back into the house. The one thing that I could always count on is that when I came to see Jaelen that he would be waiting at the window for me to play with him and that he would run to the window to watch me drive away. I wanted so much for him to just say, “I’m going with my dad!” I never forced him to come with me because I knew it had to be his decision and I did not want to add tension to my relationship with Marilyn or her family. I just went with Jaelen’s flow if he wanted to play ball we played ball, if he wanted to play with remote control cars we played with remote control cars, if he wanted to wrestle we wrestled. I always played with Jaelen to his heart’s content no matter how much time it took to make him happy. When he was tired I would leave and come back the next day to play with him more. I wanted him to know that everything with him and I was going to be okay even if he didn’t choose to spend overnight visits with me and his sister. I was so tired of arguing by that time, so tired of being threatened by her families bogus complaints, so tired of the back and forth wi...

Because i have a spouse in the state of georgia and i think it would help me and him and other familys to have conjugal visits with there family memebers..

to get justice for my husband

My husband is incarcerated at a Mississippi Correctional Facility, which will lose conjugal visits after February 1, 2014. This is one of the few things couples have to look forward to while their spouse is incarcerated. This is a privilege that should not be taken away from people who are married or people who plan to get married while incarcerated. Conjugal visits should be kept in the prison systems for the sake of marriages and families. Update!!!! Please pass this information on to family and friends. Hi everyone, I have been contacted by some of you through email with concerns about the petition and the possible outcome in our fight against the end of conjugal visits here in the Mississippi prison system. Well I was contacted by Mrs. Muscolino, who stated in an email that we need to grow in number, this is very true. Mrs. Muscolino is the Director of Mississippi Advocates for Prisoners. Today she sent out an email which stated that if petition signers can sign up with us we will be a force to reckon with and we can make a greater impact at each of the scheduled events. To sign up text: @missadv to the number 662-736-1826. I have also included information on how to contact the directors of MAP (Mississippi Advocates for Prisoners). If you have not already joined M.A.P, we encourage you to please do so. There is a text alert system that has been put in place so that everyone can be easily contacted, all members will be contacted at one time to be updated with what is going on, I have also included the email addresses to people who have developed groups to help us.

My son is in custody for over two months on a bogus DUI and is being represented by an incompetent public defender who did not show up at the hearing, who has ignored his phone calls and who has advised him not to have a jury trial even though he wanted to. Blood results show "negative" for blood alcohol. DUIs destroy lives, being compelled to face incompetent attorneys over bogus DUIs is a problem I have found out not only faces my son. Investigation of DUIs at West Jordan and other places in imperative.

The social and economic benefits of legal cannabis would be enormous. Millions of tax dollars could be saved from no longer incarcerating people for doing no more than our last three presidents themselves admitted to doing but was laughed off as if it was actually funny. We do not find it amusing in the least. If you deny people from using something that makes them feel better, then YOU are the criminal. Cannabis does not meet the criteria for it to be a Schedule 1 Controlled Substance. It does not even meet the criteria for it to be called a drug. You work for us and you are to do what we wish for you to do. You represent the people of Kansas, and the people have spoken.

Sam is a close friend and for his senior school year and possibly his life to be affected by something as simple as a hug upsets me.
