Keep religion out of politics.

This is a semi-satirical petition to convince Kevin Sabo, Berkeley's Resident Badass, not to deactivate his Facebook account.

A mega real estate project threatens to make Pilsen even more expensive for working families. Danny Solis and the Midwest Jesuits are going for fast track gentrification at 18th and Peoria. An empty lot owned by the Jesuits is under contract to build 500 luxury condos. The Jesuits refuse to talk to the community. Solis already took money from the developers before the election, but didn’t say anything until after the election. Neighbor solidarity has spared Pilsen from gentrification, but the impact of 500 luxury condos on taxes, services and affordability can be devastating to historic residents and working families

There is a HUGE community of different people who are being DISCRIMINATED against & NOT allowed to be on Facebook at this time. Author's who write using a Pen name, Wiccan's who use their Witch name, Transgender's who use a Name they Gender Identify with, Role Players who use a pen name. Drag Queens who use a Stage Name. Actors who use a Screen Actor's Guild Name. Each group have VALID reasons for using pen names & have fans & followers & friends who know them by their Pen names & they are REAL people & are being discriminated against & NOT allowed on FACEBOOK! I know MANY who have sent copies of their Screen Actor's Guild Cards as well as Author's who have sent in information with regards to writing under Pen Names & Facebook Deny's them access to their accounts! Facebook won't even talk to these groups about WHY they are being discriminated against accept that they are FAKE NAMES & that doesn't meet the policy standards set by Facebook! In a day & age where Facebook could make allowances for these groups & DON'T is ABSURD! It is DISCRIMINATION plain & simple! Each of these groups has a RIGHT to use their Pen Names, Stage Names, their Screen Actor's Guild Names & the fact that they have HUGE followings & fans who know & follow them by these names, it is RIDICULOUS that they are being DISCRIMINATED against by FACEBOOK! FACEBOOK & Mark Zuckerberg get a CLUE & be the TRENDSETTERS & embrace these groups the Author's using Pen Names, the Wiccans who use their Witch Names, the Transgender's who use the name they gender identify with, Role Players who use a Pen Name, Drag Queens who use a Stage Name, Actors who use a Screen Actor's Guild Name! Show the Social Media WORLD that YOU, FACEBOOK can & will do the RIGHT thing & allow these groups to have a place on FACEBOOK!

THIS PETITION IS TO ASK TO PLEASE HELP STOP THE WRONGFUL REMOVAL OF CHILDREN FROM THEIR HOMES! DEMAND CIVIL RIGHTS! EVERY LIFE MATTERS!

In a landscape of reality TV & recycled dramas, "Forever" stands above the field as an engaging, thoughtful and creative show that builds upon a unique concept: A medical/police procedural with a fantasy/Sci-fi twist. Dr. Henry Morgan can't die and he uses his knowledge gained over the last 200 plus years to solve crimes in New York. We, the loyal viewers, think this kind of high concept and certainly high-quality television is missing from network television. We are asking the ABC powers that be to reconsider this decision and commit to bringing "Forever" back for a sophomore season.

We are deeply concerned about possible developments and zoning changes at 72 Caton Place. We are a small neighborhood surrounded by 4 major traffic arteries critical to the area, and we are at risk to head into a level of density unparalleled in our part of Brooklyn. We are trying to preserve a singular cultural institution (Kensington Stables) and welcome a vitally important new school with safe streets and traffic areas. We have yet to tackle the built-in challenges: an inadequate sewage system, narrow streets, and a large influx of new residents in 22 Caton and The Kestrel. This is a critical moment where we have an opportunity to preserve a neighborhood. Kensington Stables: This Brooklyn institution, which represents the diversity of culture and architecture in our neighborhood, could be disastrously impacted by increased traffic on Caton Place — particularly on the block between Coney Island Avenue and East 8th Street. Riders will have no safe area to mount the horses, no place for pony rides and dangerously difficult access to the bridal paths. Infrastructure: East 8th Street, an essential thru street in the neighborhood, is currently virtually impassable to 2 way traffic. We also question whether the existing sewer system is adequate for the increasing population. Rapid Density Ramp: PS437, 22 Caton Place and the Kestrel have not yet even been factored into the local equation. They represent massive changes to this neighborhood. Cars are already double-parked on busy Coney Island Avenue weekday mornings and afternoons outside the International Baptist Church, and on Coney Island Avenue for Brooklyn College Academy High School. On the weekends, cars are parked on sidewalks on Caton Place while volunteers manage traffic into and out of church parking lots. Meanwhile AYSO (American Youth Soccer Organization) families circle the block looking for parking for the games at the parade grounds. This is all before the PS 437 opens, and 22 Caton and the Kestrel become fully occupied.

The Department of Defense recently asked for $585 billion for its operations around the world, roughly half of our "discretionary budget" (the annual budget paid for with our federal income tax dollars, as opposed to appropriations mandated by previous law like Social Security, which we pay for through payroll taxes.) But the Department of Defense has never – not once – passed an audit of its activities. That’s a real problem, and we’re going to do something about it. Legislation is currently pending to require an audit of the Pentagon’s activities, so you know exactly what you’re getting for your tax dollars. Join us in calling on Congress to pass the bill!

We have all wanted to keep our streets safe and not allow illegal aliens to drive. Unfortunately, this statement is by far inaccurate, since then the number of people driving without insurance has skyrocketed. How is this safe for the public?

I have written daily to Facebook and they refuse to acknowledge that this type of social media is attracting many disturbed individuals that have nothing more to say than to create a base of hatred. I would like to create a petition that asks powerful social media outlets like Facebook to send a strong message regarding how important it is not to all this kind of hate, anger and racism flourish and to block it permanently.

I am starting this petition because I will be financially raped for the next sixteen years (when he turns 65) because my ex-husband refuses to provide for himself, improve his education or look for full-time employment. I want to be able to retire early (I've worked full-time since I was 18) or change careers to one making substantially less than I make right now but the law requires me to pay based on what I could be earning. This madness MUST stop.

We are tired of the local news media outlet companies listed: Twenty-First Century Fox Inc. (FOX) • Time Warner Inc. (TWX) • Time Warner Cable (TWC) • WPP Plc. (WPPGY) • CBS Corporation (CBS) • Viacom Inc. (VIAB) • Comcast Corp (CMGSA) • GE corp • News Corp • Disney as Fox, CBS, MSNBC. These media outlets are sending out negative social media content like race dividing, negative politics, false election and poll reporting, reporter instigating , crime, war and police propaganda on social media. Facebook has a large kid and teenagers audience that are exposed to these derogatory, graphic videos and images that local news media outlets are posting with their stories. This technique is used to make it's viewers desensitized and to think this is normal behavior in the world we live in. This is not normal behavior and we find it offensive. We ask that this monstrosity they are calling news to stop . Your help in stopping media outlets from continuing this kind of reporting is greatly appreciated. Please sign the petition. Thank You.
