• Fix a Notice For ADA Violations
    Many businesses are subject of "shakedown" lawsuits by attorneys and plaintiffs who have no real interest in the ADA, but are focused on the easy targets of small, mom and pop businesses who are shaken down to pay or face the threats of litigation.

  • Apple to add Farsi/Persian to iphone Keyboard
    Please help stop corporate discrimination against Farsi, Persian, and Iranian-Americans. There are close to 2 million Iranian-Americans in the United States with strong economic status ranging from major business owners, surgeons, dentists, professors, entertainers, and many serving in local governments. Their financial status enables them to support all Apple products. It is strange that the Apple keyboard amongst many languages offers Czech, Croatian, Estonian, Hawaiian, Latvian, Macedonian, Slovak, Tamil, and Tibetan, but intentionally refuses Farsi or Persian. This is either a political statement or an act of prejudice against over 100 million Farsi speaking people in the world and two million Persian-Americans. As Persian-Americans we would like to receive acknowledgment of our language, Farsi/Persian, and our heritage country, Iran, on the Apple keyboard list of languages and countries. We ask CEO Cook to help implement this request in appreciation for the support we have provided to Apple.

  • Ban Shark-Finning in Oregon
    I am starting this petition because this practice is appalling. Imagine chopping the leg off a farm animal and throwing it back out in the field to suffer and die of blood loss or infection.

  • Tell Judge George Sexton To give Avery Bell and James Callis a real sentence!
    Justice needs to be done for these poor dogs. Not only were they abused because of dog fighting, but these animals were also tortured. 65 abused, suffering dogs living with heavy chains around their necks were found on the property. “Some of them were so malnourished, with skin stretched so tightly over their bones, that they had open sores just from sitting on the ground.” One of the female pit bulls rescued during the operation, named Honor by the ARC volunteers, even had all of her teeth removed, most likely so she could not fight back during forced breeding in a "rape cage". ARC volunteers named her Honor for her quiet, broken spirit and yet her readiness to trust and love immediately. How could Judge George Sexton let these monsters (Avery Bell, James Callis) go without being punished for committing countless heinous acts of cruelty? What kind of message does he think he is sending to the public? Or does he not care? You can also contact Judge sexton at: PHONE 931-296-7671 or 931-296-4544 MAIL Judge George Sexton Humphreys County Courthouse 102 Thompson Street Room #205 Waverly, TN 37185

  • Our children deserve more from their Education
    No child should have to fear judgment or retaliation from professional staff within our school districts. According to emails that have been forced public by the "Right To Know Law" cited by the KEYSTONE PROGRESS EDUCATION LAW and by Billplay.com. The South Williamsport School District Officials ( High School Principal, Superintendent, and School Board President) have been publicly confronted on their behavior pertaining to the sexual orientation of not only the student body but a play that was to take place within our school that was cancelled due to our Principal stating "He had concerns about the homosexual content of the play" and the Superintendent and School Board President attending a public forum and lying about it and stating that not such emails existed and making negative statements about bullying, such as bullying is a natural part of growing up, that bullying occurs all the time in their schools, that every child is subject to bullying, and that school officials and teachers cannot do anything to stop bullying. Bullying is to be legally reported by the District to state yet no reports have been made? I would like to see the District held accountable for its statements and the inappropriate educational philosophy/message forced on our children. There needs to be change , acceptance, and 0 tolerance for bullying in order for success to prevail in this District. Please visit both sites mentioned above for all released emails and video of bullying philosophy presented by the Superintendent and the School Board President.

  • STOP WATER FLUORIDATION
    Unlike every other chemical added to treat the water, fluoride is added to treat people. The CDC (1999) and the National Research Council (2006) have both stated that the fluoride benefit is topical and not systemic. Ingesting fluoride is harmful in a multitude of ways and has no effect on tooth decay.

  • ASL Ice Bucket Challenge- Steven Moffat
    Steven Moffat killed off Amy, River, and Rory. Not to mention he created those blasted Weeping Angels that haunt me at night. I believe he deserves to get drenched in ice cold water. Plus it would be hilarious to watch.
