Violent content in our entertainment industry has escalated over the years and by anyone's standards, is a contributing factor in the desensitization of society to brutality, bloodshed, and horror. Through video games, TV, films, and more, people have become immune to the devastating effects of real-life violence toward others. Isn't this how some cultures have dehumanized their enemies in the past? The effects are real and should be examined.

Reducing the number of assault rifles/guns in Colorado. And making it extremely difficult to purchase such weapons of mass destruction of human life, most often young human life. We must greatly stiffen the the punishment for such horrendous crimes when they do occur and not continue to allow simple pleas of "not guilty by reason of insanity" such that the person is back out on the street as soon as they can convince a psychiatrist they have "recovered". Yes we need much better mental health screening AND treatment, but in the meantime, it is time for this country to get tough on ASSAULT GUNS, which you don't need to be a good hunter!

Horses are a beautiful part of US history. They pulled our plows, carried our soldiers to battle, thrilled us with amazing feats of strength and agility. These magnificent animals deserve better than to be hauled on trailer trucks to be slaughtered in horrendous inhumane ways. We need support for the American Horse Slaughter Prevention Act.

Mr. Jones, On behalf of Cowboy fans around the world, we would like for you to seriously consider the indefinite termination of Tony Romo as a quarterback for the Dallas Cowboys. Though Tony Romo is a great quaterback at times, he continues to be a liability to the Cowboys when it comes to making the playoffs, and even more so when it comes to winning in the playoffs. The Cowboys have had great receiving corps throughout Tony Romo's career with the Dallas Cowboys. It's time to find a quarterback who wants to throw them touchdown passes, rather than the defenders that he seems to find more often than not. His unreliability has let his teammates down, as well as Dallas Cowboy fans. We (The Cowboys Fans) pay your $100 parking fees to come watch America's team play great football, not to watch Tony Romo blow games.

All of us in Connecticut have been heartsick since the mass shooting last month in Newtown that left 20 little children dead along with six adults working at the school.

Yes, I have. I lost family members, close friends and community members to gun violence! Enough is enough! As adults those responsible have allow the reckless mindset to overwhelm us, and most important, for ever hurt and inflict enternal pain! A lost is a lost and no words can explain or take its place! Children mean the world! They all represent life and the world we know. As a proud bronx father of 6 children they are my life and what I sacrifice and live for! I have the right to protect and direct their future! I love my family! Who doesn't?

It is not reasonable to expect that teachers can or should do what we normally send in a highly skilled Special Weapons And Tactics police unit to do. Encouraging or sanctioning teachers to act as combatants is a set up for disaster. Let the teachers teach, counsel, and help students grow up to be non-violent people and let the police do the job of protecting them and their students while they do that.

We should protect our children and love ones by taking assault weapons such as the bushmaster use to slaughter 21 children while at school. The only hunting this assault weapon is good for is hunting people. Lets pass some sensible gun laws.

Protecting Kids

The Chicago City Council consists of 50 wards and 50 alderman. I submit that the the same 50 wards can be managed with 25 alderman.
