This petition is to let our state legislators know that we oppose this new bill which restricts our individual rights.

Case in Newtown breaks heart of anyone. We need to make laws that will make accession to guns as hard as possible as I do not want gun to be easily accessible to people with psychological issues or people whose anger blinds their consciousness at the time of unstable situation. It is crucial for the whole nation to know that the one we love will not be victim of the gun violence in the country which is not in the war in its literal meaning.

As you may know, our city councillor, Steve Kozachik, has recently taken the position that gun shows, which sell guns without background checks, shouldn't be permitted on city owned property. Here's a quote: “Continuing to allow person-to-person gun sales without the requirement of any background checks is a clear threat to the health and safety of the community. If any place has a right to be sensitive about that, Tucson does,” Kozachik said. This is the kind of leadership we need more of, and we need to show our leaders that we support them!

There is growing support across the nation for abolishing our archaic death penalty laws, replacing them with life without the possibility of parole. Delaware can be a leader in carrying the nation fully into dealing with dangerous criminals by more effective, cost-efficient means and eliminating capital punishment altogether. There are compelling reasons to do so based on economy, morality, practicality, and even theology.

Anyone a victim of commenting suicide voice needs to be heard against mental prioters who make someone feel like taking their life. Any perpretor that makes a suicide victim comment suicide should be accountalble by law to go to prison for making the person commit suicide.

I am concerned that there are so many guns in our society that often times get in the hands of people who are not responsible. My son was killed 25 years go in Baltimore City, MD for no apparent reason other than someone thought they could. Many more have died in this city and across the nation since. Can't our gov't do something?

Stop giving the bad guys all the money.

American Citizens overwhelmingly support Universal Background Checks including over 70 percent of NRA members. We also urge legislators to ban assault weapons, high capacity magazines and address acquisition of firearms by criminals at gun shows.

The presence of an armed citizen has proved, many times, to prevent or at least reduce the number of injuries due to violent crime. It's time for Texas to join Vermont, Alaska, Wyoming, and Arizona in implementing full recognition of our Constitutional right to bear arms without having to get permission, in the form of a license, from the state.

1 in 4 girls and 1 in 6 boys will be the victim of child sexual abuse (CSA) by their 18th birthday. There are more than 42 million survivors of CSA in the United States. 3 million of these survivors are still children. These children could fill 46 national football stadiums 93 percent of the time sexual abuse is caused by a person who is supposed to protect you - a person in a position of trust or authority. In almost every case, the only witnesses to this crime are the perpetrator and the victim. Perpetrators often tell the child this is a secret and no one will believe them. Children rarely report abuse immediately. Often, they feel the abuse was their fault. In these cases, delayed disclosure is the norm. Most victims never tell anyone until several years after the abuse, if they ever tell at all. The 4 states that passed this law already are IN IL MO MAINE

Law makers in Washington want to put marijuana retail stores in off the wall zoned areas as if they were selling a disease or prostitution. Marijuana should be treated as a commodity not some rare infectious disease. Make law makers respect marijuana smokers and their retail establishments.
