• Free John Larsgard
    John Larsgard, a Norwegian student, has been sentenced to 7 1/2 years in prison for attempted murder. So what did he do? He accidentally drove down a street going the wrong way during a street festival. They surrounded the car, beat him up and threatened him. He called the local police in desperation but instead of helping him, they arrested him and charged him with attempted murder with a deadly weapon - his rental car. He spent 7 months in solitary confinement awaiting trial and was convicted today of attempted murder with a sentence of 7 1/2 years! He was convicted in this small town where the "witnesses" all agreed in lock step that he was trying to kill them. Poor guy was in fear of his life and was trying to get away from an angry mob. Oh did I mention, his mom was in the car with him?

  • No more Prisons for Profit
    The privatization of prisons creates strong incentives to shape the justice system in ways that increase arrests, convictions, and sentences. We have seen ALEC engage in this type of activity and a judge in Arizona was convicted of taking bribes to alter the sentences he gave. Prisons should not be privatized.

  • Every Life is Precious.
    A known offender must be persecuted. Stop letting persons go free who are killing innocent individuals. That man that kill Treyvon and the the man that shot the girl in the Carolina should not be free.

  • Legalize drugs in Mexico
    Americans need to let the leaders of Mexico we'll be behind them when they legalize next year. In Mexico they have run up against the brick wall of politics when it comes to their drug war. They realize that legalization is the only answer but it will take the new President to accomplish this mighty task. Our elected representatives don't listen to us but Mexico's just might.

  • Stop debtors prision
    Several states now allow people to be jailed for debts. A great lead story on this came up today about a woman being jailed for a $280 medical bill she didn't really owe. Not only did she not get an apology she went to jail and had to pay $600. Outrageous doesn't cover it.

  • Justice for Jasmine
    16-year-old African American, was shot and killed while in her mother's front yard in Chadbourn, North Carolina. The 23-year-old Caucasian male who fired the fatal shot from the house across the street was taken in for questioning, but he has not been charged with a crime of any kind. Because he claims it was an accident, the police let him go—despite the fact that he admits he fired the shot and police found a Confederate flag and Nazi literature in his home

  • Justice For Jasmine Thar
    Dear MoveOn member,On December 23, 2011, my goddaughter, Jasmine Thar, a 16-year-old African American, was shot and killed while in my mother's front yard in Chadbourn, North Carolina. When the shot rang out, Jasmine was preparing for a routine shopping trip and doing what most teens do—texting. Two others, my niece and myself, were also injured in the shooting. The 23-year-old Caucasian male who fired the fatal shot from the house across the street was taken in for questioning, but he has not been charged with a crime of any kind. Because he claims it was an accident, the police let him go—despite the fact that he admits he fired the shot and police found a Confederate flag and Nazi literature in his home. The message being sent is that you can shoot and kill someone like Jasmine and get away with it by simply claiming it was an accident. That can't be the world we live in. That's why we created a petition on SignOn.org to District Attorney Jon David, Attorney General Roy Cooper, and Assistant District Attorney Chris Gentry. The petition says: We demand justice for Jasmine Thar, who was shot and killed. Three months after the shooting we still have no answers. We urge you to sign this petition to demand a lawful, thorough, and unprejudiced investigation from the SBI and sound judicial decisions from Columbus County District Attorney Jon David and ADA Chris Gentry.

  • Stop Killing Dogs - Euro 2012 Ukraine
    Due to the upcoming soccer EM this summer in Poland and Ukraine, the Ukrainian authorities have decided to give the city a better picture for sport tourists—by killing harmless dogs and other animals that roam the streets throughout all the country. Some were even burned alive. Although the EM is over, still a lot of animals are killed in pounds like the one in Charkow in order to improve the city's image This inhuman behaviour must be put to end right now! Sign this petition to help thousands of dogs in Eastern Europe.
