Que el gobierno mexicano, ante el fracaso de la estrategia prohibicionista contra las drogas, explore y abra el debate a las posibles alternativas para enfrentar el problema de las drogas en una forma que acarree menos violencia y costos sociales.

Privatization erodes public control and oversight. Nowhere is privatization more insidious than in the corporate takeover of our criminal justice and immigrant detention systems. For-profit corporations own and run hundreds of prisons, jails, and detention centers in this country. For these companies, every prisoner is a profit center, every crime a business opportunity, and rehabilitation is bad for business

This is a petition to keep a convicted murderer, John F Copeland, in Prison.

Let no one be discouraged by the belief there is nothing one man or one woman can do against the enormous array of the world's ills - against misery and ignorance, injustice and violence... Few will have the greatness to bend history itself; but each of us can work to change a small portion of events, and in the total of all those acts will be written the history of this generation... It is from the numberless diverse acts of courage and belief that human history is shaped. Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centres of energy and daring, those ripples build a current which can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance.

I have started this petition to bring to light all of the unnecessary actions that the Cal boro cops have taken towards "US" the students; from beating and tazing students multiple times, to handing out fines like candy. A situation happened on 3/6/12 when a student was tazed four times and was also beaten. When a fellow student tried to record a cop quickly shot one last tazer before anyone could begin a recording. This is not the first incident of this situation and it wont be the last until someone speaks up. I myself have been unjustly treated. I felt that I was just only one person who couldn't do a thing; but I learned it only takes one "If one can chase 1,000 to flight, then two can put 10,000 to flight" I would like for those of you who feel strongly about this to sign and even give a brief description of your own experience if your willing to share. Once I have enough I will send the petition to VP Bob Thorn. He has already been notified and he is down for the cause, BUT he states that we need more people to speak up if you want something to be done of the situation.

Most of us have seen the video footage regarding the Invisible Children (you can find it at www.kony2012.com). Let's make more than just one attempt to alert our government that we want focus on the #1 criminal in the world (via ICC, International Criminal Court).

We have locked away our southern women for life, unjustly. They acted on basic instinct and defended themselves against an abusive partner and lost their families, children and freedom. We must make things right, we are their voices.

Haley Barber and conservative members of the supreme court have pardoned hundreds of murders in Mississippi for no apparent reason, while young people while some face long term sentances for minor drug infractions Please sign this petetion to limit Republican governors and federal courts from releasing murderers back into the community.

Trayvon Martin (17 years old) was walking home from the store in a gated Stanford, FL community with a pack of skittles and a drink when he was labeled as "suspicious" and shot and KILLED by an armed neighborhood watch guard. Despite the fact that Trayvon was completely unarmed, George Zimmerman (a white man) believed the young black teen to be dangerous and even AFTER being told by police to "stand down" he took it in his own hands and shot the young boy in cold blooded murder. We're calling on you, America, to stand up for justice and demand that Zimmerman be charged with his crimes! Please sign the petition and pass it on to all of your family and friends! Let's stand together and show that this is NOT acceptable in ANY community! http://news.yahoo.com/family-florida-boy-killed-neighborhood-watch-seeks-arrest-044537742.html

We need to let our public officials know we are in support of Police Chief Chris Burbank and his continued support to uphold the law and advocate on behave of the residents of Utah.

KONY 2012 is a campaign by Invisible Children that aims to make Joseph Kony famous, not to celebrate him, but to raise support for his arrest and set a precedent for international justice.

Joseph Kony lives in Central Africa. What Joseph does is, he abducts African kids. He takes them and he keeps them. He makes the boys killers, usually they have to kill their families. When girls are abducted they are turned into sex slaves and are raped. There is no way out of his group: Lord’s Resistance Army, AKA the LRA. He has adbucted over 30,000 children and had made them child soldiers. he won’t stop what he is doing until he is caught, he found out that the US is now on a making to look for him making him harder to find. Right now, Kony is invisible because no one knows about him.. no one. Tell as many people about Kony as you can and make him visible and know. Donate money if you can. Make him visible. we need change, and we need difference. We need Kony to be famous so we can stop the harm of innocent children. By signing this petition, and sending it to our school board, our high school can become a "sponsor" and spread this news to other school that can spread this idea to other schools as well..making everyone be aware of what this man is doing to children. All we need is a BUNCH of signs so I can personally print them out and bring them to my school board of education, and then they will allow us to go on from there! Thank you to everyone that has signed.
