• It's Time for Maine's Attorney General to Release Joyce M. McLain's Case Records to the FBI
    It has been almost 32 years since 16 year old Joyce Marie McLain was murdered. In 2008 her body was exhumed and reexamined by two nationally known forensic pathologists and it is believed new evidence was found as a result. The Maine state police have remained silent and the attorney general appears reluctant to release the case files of this decades old unsolved murder. The time for the FBI to become involved in this case is long overdue. Their investigation could uncover new or overlooked evidence that could lead to a conviction and closure of this case. Please help make that happen by signing this petition.

  • Congress: Investigate Drug Money Laundering by HSBC BANK
    An officer of the Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank, John Cruz, was fired, after reporting to numerous government agencies in 2008-2010, amassed in 1,000 pages of evidence, and 20 hours of taped conversations, that the bank was laundering massive amounts of drug money through fake, dummy accounts. This must be fully investiated by Congress instead of covered up

  • Marissa Alexander - 20 Years For Warning Shot
    Florida's stand your ground defense appears only to apply when you shoot someone dead. Marissa Alexander fired a warning shot at her abusive husband, once of the bullets went through the childrens room. The bullet did not hit anyone. She received a 20 year sentence from an unjust judge and prosecution team. Instead of us examining other countries laws, we should be examining our own, without delay and political red tape.

  • Current Vicious Dog Law Needs to be Revised
    This petition is to change the existing Vicious Dog Law (NJSA 4:19-22) in NJ to protect human beings from any dog who has been shown to be aggressive and has caused injury and pain by an attack on a person. The current law requires that the dog must be shown to have been previously vicious and attacked unprovoked before a municipal judge will order the dog to be euthanized. This is done by assigning a 3-digit number to the dog which follows it around the state. In other words, more than one person must suffer an injury before the law will stop the animal from causing more injury in the future. My 4-year-old granddaughter was maimed and disfigured by a pit bull/boxer mix who has shown previous aggression and has nipped others since. The dog is being protected by the municipality where it now resides because "It appears to be happy and healthy." Meanwhile the child is left to face mutiple surgeries and many nights of terror-filled dreams. We have no recourse against the animal with the current law as it is written and so I hope to encourage a change in the current law so that innocent children and other persons will not have to wait for an animal to viciously attack before it can be stopped by seizing and euthanizing it. Why should a vicious animal be allowed more chances to prove its dangerous temperament? My child will not have more chances, she is disfigured and traumatized for life!

  • Gunfire Detection
    Three local neighbors spent months trying to see an end to celebratory gunfire through deployment of gunfire location technology. After months of work, those same neighbors need five minutes of your time to give this technology the best possible chance at deployment. Our NPU Public Safety Chair (Ron Lall) sent out an email two weeks ago discussing an initiative to launch ShotSpotter gunshot location technology in Atlanta. This technology is capable of detecting the source of gunfire within inches, and allows distinguishing between actual gunfire events and other sounds which mimic gunfire, such as fireworks. Technical info is available at www.shotspotter.com and a short video explaining the technology is here: http://youtu.be/V28UMrWGARk In short, Councilmember Julian Bond proposed an ordinance that would allow for funding of the ShotSpotter technology in Atlanta. This is exacly what we need to isolate where gunfire is coming from and allow APD to respond to the exact site of gunfire incidents. This ordinance was held recently and is up for discussion with all involved parties and NOW is the time to request support from our representatives! If it bothers you that we can't tell the difference between gunfire and fireworks, that our APD officers waste time driving around in circles trying to locate a possible gunfire event, or that we can't prove where gunfire is coming from with any certainty, please take a moment to help:
