Hi, Eric Holder is the latest hostage in the Republican majority's bid to remove President Obama from office. Their measures are extreme, inflammatory, racist and a misuse of their time and energies and our tax dollars. To vote for contempt is to continue the downward spiral of the public's view of congress being viscous, partisan, petty and willing to ruin other people's lives and careers to achieve their aims. Stop this procedure!! That's why I created a petition to The United States House of Representatives, which says: "Stop the Contempt Vote for Eric Holder. If it is scheduled, Vote NO." Will you sign this petition? Click here: http://signon.org/sign/no-contempt-for-eric?source=c.em.mt&r_by=1129263 Thanks!

My 14 yr old Nephew was accused of being a party to a crime. While walking through the neighborhood with a small group of teens. While in their presence, some of the other teens assaulted and robbed another teen. When arrested his name was given as being a party to a crime. After months of court dates, Dadrian was sentenced to 12 months at a youth detention Center on a first offense conviction. Dadrian's only crime was being in the wrong place at the wrong time with the wrong group of people. While this may certainly be seen as being punishable, His sentence is not suitable to his crime. Dadrian is a smart, young youth who has always respected his peers, elderly, and environment. He is also an honor roll student who participates frequently in after school and extracurricular activities. Being raised by a single mom he helps take care of his two younger siblings and attends church regularly. Dadrian is a strong young man who stands up for what he believes in and an even stronger man because he stands up for others. Even in doing so, consequently, he was wrongly accused based on his environment at the time instead of his environment as a whole.

Every day, Atlanta 911 receives about 13 "shots fired" calls, but rarely do these calls lead police to a shooter. A new technology available to APD can change this: Gunfire Detection Technology (GDT) provides police accurate location and other actionable information within seconds of a gunfire event. GDT is more effective and less costly than 911 response alone. Gunfire Facts: Fact: On average, 13 "shots fired" calls a day are made to Atlanta 911. Fact: APD officers spend on average 30 minutes responding to a shots fired call. Fact: approximately 2,500 hours of police time is wasted every year trying to find the source of gunfire. Fact: It's estimated that only 20 to 30% of actual gunfire events are reported to 911. Fact: Cities that use Gunfire Detection Technology (GDT) have reduced gunfire events by up to 70 percent. How Gunfire Detection Technology (GDT) Works: Police receive a precise map of where the gunfire originated, and a recording of the gunfire event, that lets them hear exactly how many shots were fired, how many guns were involved, and which direction the shooters are moving, if they are moving. GDT may even be able to identify the caliber of weapon(s) being fired. Having this information means that police can respond to the precise event location, and with appropriate force and full knowledge of the nature of the gunfire at that location. Accurate information, faster notification and response, tighter investigations and better evidence gathering - making it safer for police and residents. http://www.youtube.com/user/shotspotter What Does It Cost? The cost of Gunfire detection technology would be between $0.5M and $1M per year, and will depend on how large an area that is covered by the technology. It is one of the cheapest and most effective crime reduction investments Atlanta can make. How Can You Help? Tell Atlanta Council members and Mayor Reed that you want Atlanta to establish a gunfire abatement program and make an investment in the deployment of gunfire detection technology.

Investigate Euless Police Officer Deana Ramsour for the actions she took to wrongfully convict our son. Ramsour, first officer to speak with our son, testified she turned off her video tape to explain why he does not appear in the video with her. Two independent experts analyzed her video and found that her tape had been edited. Both experts had previously done work for the FBI, state, and local law enforcement agencies as well as defense attorneys. Investigate to determine if public officials influenced Michael Heiskell, a highly respected and capable attorney, in his decision to withhold key evidence from the jury to support our son’s innocence. Michael Heiskell did not show the jury the jail house video available on www.justice4royjr.com. Roy does not exhibit any behaviors associated with a person who has a blood alcohol content of .11. He is remorseful, coherent, extremely sad, incredibly frightened, standing upright, etc. Investigate the blood draw -- it was redirected from the Texas Department of Public Safety by the Tarrant County Prosecutor to the Tarrant County Medical Examiner’s office to determine whether it was “edited” to show up as .11.

Police shoot and injure civilians, and endanger whole communities with recklessness shooting and driving choosing to blame civilians when they make mistakes. The judiciary and prosecuting attorney improperly divide the word, overlooking evidence and the opportunity to throw out police claims in these instances making it possible for cities to slide by instead of honoring claims for wrongful shootings.

Mandatory Minimum Sentencing takes the balance out of our Justice System by putting the power of the charge and the sentencing into the Office of the Prosecutor. It does not take into consideration people who are intellectually or emotionally challenged, or people, including VETS, with PTSD or worse. It does not consider people with Autism, no matter at what level or functionality. It does not allow the Judge to consider any of the circumstances, but treats each case as a "one-size-fits-all" as if they are all the same. They also waste taxpayer dollars with a cost of $48,000 per person per year of incarceration.

Finding justice for an innocent woman.

We need to stop playing God and abolish the death penalty nationally.
