• Gun terror
    Restricting bullets, say 5 bullets, would not harm anything in second amendment and would provide a little bit of safety for the first responders.

    Assault weapons have no place in a civiized society. We need background checks retroactive to all who have bought assault weapons and certanily checks going forward. Who is buying these guns? What assaults do they have in mind? Ban the guns and the multi-shot ammuniition clips before more mass shootings occur.

  • Media Ban for anything Gun Related
    An increse in gun violence across the United States is being amplified by the medias over publicization of these issues. This is directed to the president due to the fact that a media ban would be in violation of the first ammendment of the Bill of Rights. Changes to the second ammendment are evidently neccessary, however, the legislation need not be publicized; the legislation is a matter best handled by the president and congress, it is their job to make these changes, not ours as citizens.

  • Lower the Price of Parking and Traffic Violations
    The price of parking and traffic tickets has skyrocketed over the past five years. While our state needs funding, the price of both parking and moving violations has reached a level that inconsistent with the income levels of many California residents, causing undue financial hardship. People do lose their cars in some instances because they cannot afford to pay the high price of car-related fines. Los Angeles, as one example, is a city that often requires driving and from the workplace; it does not yet have a fast, reliable public transport system and has long traveling distances. Parking fees throughout California have risen along with the cost of meter violations. The cost traffic and parking violations does not significantly reduce violations of traffic or parking laws. The costs are overly punitive and cause more problems for tax-payer's than the money generated for the state solves. If you would like to have the cost parking and traffic violations significantly reduced, please sign this petition.

  • Sen Murphy give a hearing to SB 1048
    Arizonans have spent too much time and money arbitrarily killing some inmates while allowing their co-defendants to walk free. It time to end this ineffective and unjust practice and bring an end to the death penalty in Arizona. Senate Bill 1048 will do that but it has to clear the Judiciary Committee.

  • Increase WI Budget Funding for Alternatives to Incarceration
    As a member of JONAH, an affiliate of the state-wide social justice organization WISDOM, we need to invest $75M in our 2013-2015 state budget for Treatment Alternatives and other Diversions (TAD). Starting with non-serious offenders, we need to promote drug treatment, mental health care, and other corrective services to make our communities safer and much more just, all while saving $2 for every $1 spent. I have benefited from years of mental health services. Therefore, I believe all have the right for a 2nd chance, a 3rd chance, through corrective services. Under these Alternatives, non-violent offenders stay in their community for true rehabilitation, rather than being warehoused in jails and prisons. They are intensely supervised by a judge, human service professionals and rehabilitation providers. For evidence-based studies that show the success of such alternatives, go to www.prayforjusticeinwi.org.

  • "AARON DOTY LAW"
    "LET`S STOP THE VIOLENCE BETWEEN KIDS/YOUNG ADULTS" A young man in Sebring,Fl , Aaron Doty, 20 years old, was beaten at a party by two men while others at the party watched. No one did anything but video taped the fight instead of calling 911, No 911 calls were made at or after the party. Aaron was later brought to the woods by the same two men in someone elses truck, whom is not being charged and they set him on fire while he was still alive . Aaron was left for dead while not a single person helped him. he was found dead on 6/9/2012. All those people who stood there and watched an innocent person slowly die, and did not help him or call 911 should be charged with accessory after the fact to his death. It needs to be a law that if you see someone helpless being abused or see someone whos life is in danger or anything of that nature to call 911 to save someones life. I speak for others when I say we want justice for Aaron Doty. This law needs to be in effect to protect the innocent and punish the guilty!!!
