Many drivers have no respect for pedestrians or other drivers. The impulse to hit & run after an accident has become a persuasive practice. This is social insanity because we've become an irresponsible society. Driving is a privilege and should be regulated accordingly. This infraction is illegal, immoral, unethical, and barbaric. We all suffer financially and emtionally. We can stop this "NOW". Those found guilty should suffer a harsh penalty. Jail, with no plea bargaining as an idea. When we tolerate insanity, we live the result.

Dear Friends, This is a simplified version of the first petition I created relating to attorney deceit in the courts. This will be easier to understand, although a copy of the proposed law I drafted is posted after this background information. With only a month left in the 2013 Utah Legislative Session, we need your help ASAP. Lawyers are not considered to be under oath, even though they are sworn to honesty when admitted to practice law in Utah. This law would create criminal consequences for any attorney who seeks to deceive the court.. Those crimes addressed by this proposed law can make the difference between fair and unfair rulings and verdicts. By taking action against attorneys who mislead judges and damage the integrity of the court, we can assert our right to expect a level playing field for each party in a case. When an attorney is determined to have lied to a court, the Utah Bar Association is responsible for disciplinary action. But because the Bar is comprised of other attorneys, it is unlikely that any significant discipline will be dispensed. (Source: 2011-2012 Utah Bar Association Fiscal Year Report) Utah's ethical enforcement agencies got an "F" grade from the Center On Public Integrity, a national organization that determines each state's risk for corruption in government and the courts. That same organization gave Utah a "D-" on judicial accountability. Why? Twelve other states have passed Attorney Deceit laws. Just as Utah is considered one of the top "fraud" states, its geographic isolation and the dominance of cultural and religious bonds have made it more at risk for frauds upon the court by unscrupulous attorneys. You can help make Utah a better place by supporting this landmark change. Make attorneys accountable for ethical standards. MAKE IT THE LAW.

GUN CONTROL: 1. All NEW and OLD guns must be registered. 2. Require background / competence checks of owners and to-be-owners before the purchase of a gun. 3. Require gun owners to own a container to secure weapons OR Smart-Guns that recognize only the owner to use it. 4. Require resale of guns to be regulated. Losing a gun must result in a stiff penalty reduced by reporting it. 5. Provide a method for State-of-Mind checks to investigate a specific gun owner or person with access to guns.

I have not seen this proposed as a means of preventing identity theft, but if it is as simple as it seems to me, it should have been done years ago. Too many people are being victimized by identity theft and we need a government that is proactive in stopping this problem.

People who arm criminals and fuel gun violence in our communities need to be held accountable. Stricter jail sentences and/or high fines would help reduce the number of weapons sold in the streets.

Have New Jersey develop even tougher gun safety laws than they now have.

I hate the thought of everybody needing a gun. We have had enough. I always thought we trusted God If so why do we need a gun in his house. Is everybody going Crazy?

The legalization of marijuana would bring in a lot of tax revenue for missouri, it has a lot of medical uses, it also can be used to develope bio-fuels, and fabrication of many materials we use every day. The postive effects of marijuana greatly outweighs the bad. Marijuana should be legal because it can help people immensely through medical uses and is drastically less harmful than tobacco and alcohol with recreational use.

California prisons drain $10 billion from taxpayers annually. Prisons can and should be self-sufficient. Oregon requires prisoner to work. Prisoners will gain skills and be employable when they are released.

It is imperative that gun traffickers understand that they are as responsible for a gun being used in a crime as the person who engages in that crime. Transporting and selling weapons across state lines without a licensce must also be met with strong penalties, such as jail or extreme fines.

Please allow 1000's of adults and otherwise to be free of the pain that cannabis so simply replaces with relaxation, even lower blood pressure. How many humans with seizures do we have to cry for before they're allowed to take non-mind altering Cannabidiols (CBDs) from cannabis to instantly stop the seizures before it's obvious that cannabis certainly doesn't belong in the category of Heroin as a Schedule 1 drug. Cocaine, 1000 times worse than cannabis, is only Schedule 2, so cannabis should be no more than a parking ticket/Schedule 3, and certain forms such as CBDs which do not get you "high" should be legal for pain/seizures.

After I was the victim of domestic violence, my abuser was not prosecuted because my local law enforcement chose not to follow the Illinois Domestic Violence Act guidelines and refused to take any actions preventing further abuse. The police decided to ignore my case, which did lead to further abuse, and there is nothing I can do because they have the right not to act. It is unacceptable to allow abusers get away with violence because the police can hide behind immunity. That's why I created a petition on SignOn.org to the Illinois Legislature and Governor Pat Quinn, to fix the loophole that allows police to choose to not fully follow the Illinois Domestic Violence Act.
