Every year the craze of the season is slowly cutting into the holidays which have been mostly preserved over the years. The goal of this petition is to collect as many signatures as possible between now and the holiday season of 2014. This petition will be sent to all business who choose to open the doors for business on Thanksgiving and Christmas. Please help preserve our holidays and share this with all your friends and family. Please only sign one time. The best ways you can help is: 1) Do not support these business until the day after Thanksgiving (no earlier then 5am). 2) Do not support these businesses on Christmas Day. 3) Sign this petition. Thank you for your support. Matthew 26:41 "Watch and pray that you may not enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.”

The production and sale of animal skins is morally wrong and inhumane, causing millions of innocent animals to be slaughtered every year in the name of fashion in the most cruel of ways, even skinned alive. Animal skins should be banned from the United States completely and fur farms shut down for good. Animals should be protected and seen as creatures who suffer and feel instead of fashion items.

As a person with a child, I understand having responsibilities to someone other than myself. We have a right to know what we are feeding our children, not to mention ourselves. I demand disclosure on the presence of GMOs in my child's food. Let us join our voices in demanding this basic right to know.

We have a right to know if the foods we are buying have GMOs in them. In more than 60 countries around the world there are significant restrictions or outright bans on the production and sale of GMOs. Tell the South Carolina legislature to give us freedom to know what we are putting in our bodies.

A deliberate distortion and failure of journalism in the presentation of Benghazi attack, all intended to embarrass and slander the President of the United States and his former Secretary of State. Knowingly broadcasting a false story by an admitted liar Lara Logan is not an objective journalist. She lied. She must be fired.

Since I've started high school, there have been three suicides. The most recent one just days ago. All of these have been caused by bullying. Our school says that bullying is bad but they haven't taken any action to help end it. If we had a bullying hotline, we could help others so much. A lot of us see bullying everyday and do nothing about it because we're so scared of being bullied. Most of us have personally been bullied. It's a scary thing to go through and it needs to stop. Suicide is the third leading cause of death for teens. With a bullying hotline, that many other schools use, people who are bullied can call or even text a number and would get help. People who see bullying can do the same. This way, there is less fear. The sad thing is, is that the school was offered this program and rejected it. If you want this hotline that could help save the lives of students in our school, please share and sign this petition. Thank you.

Living in Sigma/West has its benefits, an own bathroom, a bigger room and space. But when it comes to dorm meetings and birthdays of friends we face the drawbacks. No lounge to meet in, no kitchen to bake the cake in. We too have the right for a "place to hang out" in!

As concerned citizens of and visitors to San Juan Island and Friday Harbor, we believe that placing the new Customs and Border Patrol offices with additional space and facilities required under the Dept. of Homeland Security in the downtown core would be a serious mistake. While we recognize the role of CBP in the continued safety of our island and country , we believe the corner of First and Spring St., the heart of Friday Harbor's downtown, is an inappropriate location for a government security facility. We are disappointed by the lack of transparency and public input into a decision which will affect the way our tax dollars are spent and alter the face of this small community through the coming decade. We want this move halted until a satisfactory impact study is provided and the public is engaged in the decision making process. This petition is intended to create additional support for this cause when presenting the issue at the upcoming community forum Mon. Nov. 25 , 2013 in Friday Harbor Wa. It is meant to encourage the online support of those who cannot attend and all who are in favor of taking these concerns to a higher level and being heard.

I, Rikki Renee', am starting this petition because I do not believe that our deployed soldiers should have to pay for their internet, phone calls, etc. All cell phone services should work overseas that way our soldiers can use their personal phones while they're not working. They should get free wi-fi to be able to communicate with families back home and keep in touch with everyone. If our soldiers can put their lives on the line and leave their families for extended periods of time to protect our freedoms, such as wi-fi and cell phones (etc), they should get it for free. They were brave enough to step up, so all these internet and cell phone companies need to work with them. As for our congress and such, they need to make it possible for our soldiers to get the best possible treatment available while overseas. Such as 3 good meals a day, a set work schedule, the best benefits, the best care providers, first class plane tickets home, etc. They should not be hurting for anything!! And anyone with a loved one in the service knows how I feel. My husband just left me and 2 kids both under the age of 3, to serve our country and he is having to pay $90.00 a month for wi-fi, we have to get his phone suspended because it will not work over there, and their plans and missions for overseas are STILL not set in stone. Please sign this petition and lets get something done!

The outdoor channel promotes animal cruelty, and promote the criminal Melissa Bachman show, whom goes on hunting endangered species and beautiful wild animals for the sole purpose of showing off. This petition is open to all governments world wide to ban Melissa Bachmann and any hunter to obtain visas. Also we urge the readers to boycott the Outdoor channel as it promotes animal cruelty, the humans from next generations deserve to have beautiful wild animals, and these bastards are obsessed with hunting them even when wild animals numbers are dwindling fast , it is a crime against all of us, and it must be stopped

FOR HEALTHIER FOOD!
