There is too much violence related to the violence our children are exposed to through various media outlets. After watching hours and hours of games and movies, where people are killed without regard to the hurt caused by the killings, our kids are placing themselves in the same situations and are using whatever means to act out the scenes played over and over in the media. We need to step up and show our children how life is not a game and how taking another's life causes pain for not only the deceased individual's family, but also causes pain for their family.

There is not and there should be a national database tracking system on the numbers of violent gun deaths and suicides in this country. Without knowing the actual numbers of gun deaths how can we assess the real situation? We need a permanent agency providing national totals for every previous day.

FOX news has been spewing hatred, lies and deceit for many years. Recently, an Indiana man was convicted of arson for setting fire to a mosque in Ohio. The man specifically stated that he was motivated by media accounts, mostly from FOX news, and that he felt no remorse in setting the fire. If I am not mistaken, this is a hate crime, a hate crime driven by the poisonous and contagious lies and conventional "wisdom" supplied by this media outlet.

Please sign this petition: We the informed people of the United States are fed up with mostly the Republican legislators that are playing games with our tax money and taking time away from meaningful legislation that serves all the people. It is time to fine them and hold them accountable.

As a current New York resident and former resident of Long Beach and Staten Island -- areas hard hit by Hurricane Sandy -- I believe that Republican members of the House of Representatives need to apologize today for putting their ideology and re-election ambitions ahead of their concern for the Americans who have recently suffered and continue to suffer from the recent storm. The refusal to vote on House Speaker Boehner's Plan B and to vote for $60 Billion for states affected by Hurricane Sandy is clear evidence where their priorities lay.

We need ex-congressman Frank in the U.S. Senate to support progressive causes and fiscal discipline.

Sign my petition to ask Governor Deval Patrick to appoint former Rep. Barney Frank to the Interim Senate seat when John Kerry is confirmed to be Secretary of State.

Insurance information should be integrated into the police computers the same as drivers licenses and registration information. Police computers should be able to validate insurance information on the scene. Many people have accidents and when the police arrive they produce insurance cards that are invalid and victims end up having to pay for the repair and medical bills and increased insurance rates because that uninsured driver knew that by the time the state of New Jersey realized that his card was invalid it would be to late. These people should be identified and held responsible on the spot for their blatant disregard for the law.

This nation has unleashed a military campaign against the world like none before and we must demonstrate the combined will to stop it. American led covert operations and counter insurgency are at the core of all revolutions and violence in this world, and this latest crusade we are all allowing to happen comes in the name of democracy.
