Those who signed the Norquist Pledge have forsaken their promise as elected representitives of the people of the United States per the Constitution, Article 1 - Section. 10. "No State shall enter into any Treaty, Alliance, or Confederation; grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal; coin Money; emit Bills of Credit; make any Thing but gold and silver Coin a Tender in Payment of Debts; pass any Bill of Attainder, ex post facto Law, or Law impairing the Obligation of Contracts, or grant any Title of Nobility." This is an act of treason

The Wilmington 10 were 10 civil rights workers in Wilmington, NC, whom were railroaded into a false conviction of killing a white grocery store owner. In 1980, a federal court overturned their conviction, but they were never pardoned. People have been working for a few years to obtain a pardon for the Wilmington 10 and NC Governor Bev Perdue just signed one! This will be unpopular with people who are too rigid and racist to ever admit mistakes are made. I want people to thank Governor Perdue for being brave enough, and just enough, to issue these pardons. http://www.governor.state.nc.us/NewsItems/PressReleaseDetail.aspx?newsItemid=2709

There is no justice for people who were molested or raped or both as children. Most children try to forget the trauma of what happened to them, but as adults the trauma needs to be dealt with in order for the person to heal. Unfortunately the law states that there is a Statute of Limitations and the pedophiles are still free to continue their heinous crimes against children. This needs to stop. We need to protect our children and the adults that were raped of their innocence by not allowing the pedophiles to get away with their crimes. Most children are threatened to not reveal the adult that molested them; some try to forget. Usually as adults the trauma of the rape of their innocence comes to the surface of their minds and when some brave souls try to take a stand they're told it's too late, too much time has passed & the perpetrator goes unpunished. This sends a message loud and clear to all pedophiles that they can get away with their crimes; so why stop? It also adds insult to injury to the ones who were raped, molested, or both as children. The message to them is that they don't matter; they weren't protected as children and they have no recourse as adults.

Killings of our young men.

Planned in secrecy, without any warning or notice to any of the victims, desperate students and staff were traumatized and struggle today with the aftermath. Hundreds of stories have emerged of teachers holding doors down to save their students while calling loved ones to say good bye. Staff falling to the floor in prayer. And brave acts of protection and heroism. Some arrived at hospitals for heart pain. 300 fragile students, starting at the age of 12, who have worked all their lives to be strong and overcome emotional hardships were terrorized by this action, and most do not have the voice to respond! Or even to tell their parents!

AS A LONG TIME HUNTER AND THE OWNER OF MANY LONG GUNS AND SEVERAL PISTOLS,I KNOW FIRST HAND THAT SPORTSMAN DO NOT NEED ASSAULT WEAPONS AND LARGE CAPACITY CLIPS.FEDERAL LAW PROHIBITS MORE THAN 3 ROUNDS IN A SHOTGUN WHEN HUNTING DUCKS,GEESE OR WOODCOCK WITH LITTLE COMPLAINT FROM TRUE SPORTSMAN WHY SHOULD SMALL BORE, FLAT SHOOTING RIFLES BE ANY DIFFERENT?

Firearms are responsible for more bodily injury, and death, to innocent third -parties, than motor vehicles,. Yet all motor vehicles must have compulsory liability insurance -- but not so firearms. Therefore subject all firearms to the same types of mandatory insurance liability requirements -- as motor vehicles,

A GSW's average cost is reported to be as high as $1,000,000. A gun owner cannot guarantee that his or her gun will not cause a accidental injury or be used in a crime. Therefore it seems that requiring liability insurance for these weapons is a reasonable expectation for responsible gun ownership. A higher liability requirement could be put on assault weapons.

When ONE of us is unjustly imprisoned, we ALL suffer. Dr. Martin Luther King said it best: "Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere," in a letter from the Birmingham Jail on 16 April 1963. I know Robert Fox, and he is not a criminal. He is the victim of rogue police officers in Jacksonville, Texas, who are trying to destroy him for filing a claim against the city for THEIR 8 previous false charges that were defeated.

I encourage all people - gun owners and non gun owners to embrace these common sense ideas of my mother Dessie Roberts, to help our country get a grip on our current inadequate gun safety system. Sign this petition, and pass it on. Thank you, Jacquelyn Roberts

Given the recent gun violence I believe gun owners should be required to purchase insurance on their weapons similar to liability insurance on their cars.
