Justice for Jasmine16-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 home3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Gina

Justice For Jasmine TharDear 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.11 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Lillian G Martin

Stop Killing Dogs - Euro 2012 UkraineDue 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.160 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Parker Stewart

End the War on DrugsThe War on Drugs has been an attempt of the United States Government to deter drug use and trafficking with strict laws, enforcement, and sentencing. The problem is that many people have been thrown into prison and saw their futures disappear for simply making personal decisions which affect nobody but themselves. The black market, which consists of powerful global drug cartels, has benefited in this billion dollar market and have caused crime rates to explode. In my opinion it is one's own civil right to consume drugs, no matter how bad, as long as nobody else is hurt. Despite the war on drugs, drug use remains high, cartels remain powerful, and billions of dollars have been invested in a problem that cannot be cured through enforcement. The only way to win the war on drugs is to end it.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Joseph Riccardo

President Obama, Why do you support the failed "war on drugs" whose policies imprison African Ame...Statistics show that whites and African Americans use drugs at an equal level, yet African Americans are sentenced to prison at 4 times or higher the rate of whites for the same crimes of possession or dealing (Human Rights Watch). Why does our first African American president support this racist policy?4 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Joel Hanson
