THIS BILL WAS KILLED BY COMMITTEE TODAY AT 4 PM In COMMITTEE MEETING. I.e. The committee reviewing this bill, would not even allow it to go to a vote in the Colorado Legislature. This is your government at work. So sorry to report. If you are interested in organizing a citizen referedum to force a state wide citizen vote on this bill please contact me by clicking the CONTACT email above. Thanks Evie Hudak- voted against the bill, Democrat Angela Giron- voted against the bill, Democrat Matt Jones- voted against the bill, Democrat The above legislatures effectively killed the bill in committee Larry Crowder- voted for the bill to go to the legislature for debate, Republican Ted Harvey- oted for the bill to go to the legislature for debate, Republican The creaters of this petition are NOT affiliated with either the Republican or Democratic parties. Just so you know. See this VIDEO explaining why: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=3DrLAOcdAXM#! Mechanized robotic law enforcement such as photo radar and photo traffic lights is an invasion of privacy, makes frequent mistakes penalizing the innocent, does not support due process of law, does not promote safer driving, and is simply a quick and easy method to randomly raise revenue by governments unable to manage their city finances in a fair and equitable manner. Mechanized law enforcement by photo traffic enforcement programs are employed under the guise of "traffic safety", yet unbiased independent traffic studies show that this is not the consequence of such systems. In Denver, the excuse of "crosswalk safety" has been used to justify stop light photo enforcement, yet in all cases in Denver, the systems- generating millions of dollars revenue- have NOT been set up at intersections where pedestrian traffic is high, but rather simply at intersections with the heaviest road traffic and very low pedestrian use. Photo law enforcement is generally used in areas where speed limits are set low and known to produce the greatest ticket revenue- not where speed limits are reasonable and set according to federal guidelines requiring proper engineering studies based on reasonable driving practice. Even now, Colorado law requires "CONSPICUOUS" signage warning of photo traffic enforcement, and yet such signs do not follow federal regulatory sign height requirements, are hidden by parked cars, concealed by ordinary traffic, and frequently consist of small folding stands sitting on the ground- in clear contempt for the existing law which is ignored by the companies and the city running the mechanized ticketing operation. Mechanized law enforcement is WRONG and is yet another dangerous infringement upon everyone's legal and constitutional rights. Support a Colorado ban on photo traffic enforcement and protect your driving rights and the legal rights of all citizens who drive. This is an issue that transcends all political party lines- PLEASE spread the word and share this link, no matter if you are an Independent, Green Party, Democrat, or Republican.

The Texas Legislature is considering closing state parks. Our family camps in Texas state parks because of the great environment for families. It would be tragic if ANY of Texas' great state parks were closed. Millions of dollars are being spent on the education STAAR test. Very few people are in favor of this test. The State of Texas should FUND its state parks and DEFUND the STAAR test!

Charleston County Sheriff Al Cannon stated he will not enforce gun laws at a press conference on January 17, 2013. As the head of law enforcement in Charleston County that is unacceptable. It is time for Al Cannon to resign. More info from Post and Courier: http://postandcourier.com/article/20130117/PC16/130119327/1165/sheriff-cannon-i-would-be-violating-the-law-if-i-enforced-unconstitutional-law UPDATE: Sheriff Al Cannon is now claiming Columbine wasn't a firearm incident? If you find this unacceptable for the head of law enforcement please share this with your friends: http://www.charlestoncitypaper.com/HaireoftheDog/archives/2013/01/22/al-cannon-rewrites-history-says-no-guns-used-at-columbine

The official chaplains of the U.S. House and Senate are supposed to be nonpartisan pastors who offer spiritual support and guidance to our nation's elected leaders. But on Inauguration Day, they're scheduled to speak at a right-wing event in Washington alongside some of the most hateful and racist figures on the Christian right. Pat Robertson describes President Obama as a "socialist" with a Muslim "inclination." Joseph Farah runs WorldNetDaily, a conspiracy-theory website that continues to claim was born in Kenya. Jonathan Cahn is a fringe "messianic rabbi" who sees signs of the apocalypse in Obama's speeches and writings. We've only got a few days to stop House chaplain Patrick J. Conroy and Senate chaplain Barry Black from lending the prestige of their offices to this hateful exploitation of Christian faith.

I got annoyed by the hypocrisy and outrage of registering guns compared to registering men 18-25 for Selective Service. The law is antiquated and needs to be abolished or suspended.

Walter Jones wants to amend the Fair Debt Collections Practices act to favor the Banks, the bill sought to change the definition of Lawyers and their firms so that lawyers not called debt collectors. This proposed change does not help homeowners because in addition debt collectors as it is are lawyers who sometimes buy debt and then turn to collect it. This bill is a sham and the Representative may be working for the Banks on this one. see link for details http://mariokenny.me/2013/01/17/bill-to-amend-fdcpa-for-attorneys-introduced-in-u-s-house/

This petition is about having Rush Limbaugh either suspended or forced to apologize for mocking children killed by guns in Connecticut. As a resident of Connecticut, and someone who lost a school friend to this tragedy, this is not nor will it ever be acceptable to make fun of a tragedy such as this one.

Now is the time to tell Governor Brownback that anti-immigrant laws are wrong for Kansas! We need immigration policies that reflect our state’s values of fairness, justice and equality. Passing anti-immigrant laws will hurt the Kansas economy. If all unauthorized immigrants were removed from Kansas, the state would lose $1.8 billion in economic activity, $807.2 million in gross state product, and approximately 11,879 jobs. Implementing harsh laws would cost Kansas billions! Anti-immigrant bills will tear families apart. Family unity is one of the strongest Kansas values. Our current system is separating and damaging 1,000 families daily. We call on Governor Brownback to support and work for a path to citizenship that allows families to stay together. Kansas no longer wants to be labeled as the state that promotes a senseless “self-deportation” approach to this issue. The belief that making daily life miserable for undocumented immigrants is unethical and violates basic human rights! We ask Governor Brownback not to support inhumane immigration laws.

The goal is to petition appropriate executives at PBS NewsHour and CNN to provide a frequent, powerful and dignified reminder of the large numbers of children and teens killed by firearms each week. The procedure is to follow closely that which the PBS NewsHour uses to honor military personnel killed in Afghanistan. Whereas I have not lost a relative, all Americans are endangered by the ready availability of firearms in the USA.

My petition is for our school Leominster High School to re-look at it's bullying policy. I have witnessed on several occasions bullying that has consistently gone on. It says zero tolerance but it really isn't
