Animals are treated like trash there and some of the folks in Warren County do not care... they are thrown away, abandoned, abused, kicked, shot, hit with bats, starved to death, poisoned, beaten. Dogs are left chained with no access to food or water, thrown from moving vehicles, and when families move they leave behind their animals behind with no one ever arrested. Cats and kittens are killed, left in bags on the road to be ran over, drowned and abused. Horses are starved and killed, one even dragged behind a vehicle. What part of that is ok? None that I know of!! Unfortunately, this goes on daily in that area.....We who love animals must stand up and say NO MORE!. Because, sadly there is NOTHING the law enforcement departments will do to help.

Renewing the 1994 Assault Weapons Ban is the first step toward protecting our children and families. Assault weapons are designed for the sole purpose of mass killing, and are not needed by any civilian for self defense or hunting. Not even police officers use assault weapons in the field. The Harvard Injury Control Research Center concluded that the more guns that are available to the public, the higher the homicide rate. 2. Stronger gun control laws should: -mandate a gun-safety course -ban high capacity clips -require gun registration and licensure -increase age requirement -prohibit felons from purchasing guns -prohibit people previously hospitalized for mental illness from purchasing guns *** Stricter gun-control laws do not stop a responsible citizen from obtaining a gun. The gun lobby has swayed our elected officials for too long with large campaign contributions. It's time to use our voices to empower our elected officials. We must show courage and conviction to prevent future gun violence in America. Commit to support stronger federal gun control legislation per above. WE MUST ARM AMERICANS WITH KNOWLEDGE, AND DISARM OUR COMMUNITIES FROM ASSAULT WEAPONS.

Medical Marijuana is proven already as the best medicine for human consumption. Helps cure forms of cancer,severe pain, and kids with autism tend not to hurt themselves as much. How about our military, they suffer through back pains, surgery and missing body parts! Oh, but our government give these people pills that contain poison to the body, and cause mass side effects? Medical Marijuana can help us live and help our planet grow!

This petition calls upon the Congress to pass and the President to sign a law requiring all future potential gun owners to acquire liability insurance as a condition of purchases of new or used firearms as of the passage of the bill.

Chief Theresa Spence has been on hunger strike since December 10th, 2012 to stand for our Indigenous people to assert Indigenous sovereignty; to put a stop to Bill C-45 and requesting to meet with Prime Minister Stephen Harper. Bill C-45 attacks the land base reserved for Indigenous people not respecting the Treaties. The Treaties are nation to nation agreements between Canada and First Nations who are sovereign nations. The Treaties are agreements that cannot be altered or broken by one side of the two Nations. The spirit and intent of the Treaty agreements meant that First Nations peoples would share the land, but retain their inherent rights to lands and resources. Instead, First Nations have experienced a history of colonization which has resulted in outstanding land claims, lack of resources and unequal funding for services such as education and housing. Chief Theresa Spence said she is willing to die in an attempt to get the federal government and aboriginal leaders to discuss the treaty process and make fundamental changes. I ask you Mr. President to take a stand with us to STOP Canadian Bill C-45 and end Chief Spence hunger strike.

How the electric and gas companies are improperly measuring the usage of such economic commodities per household. Astronomical fees are assisting in the downfall of the middleclass and lower-income families. These industries should be heavily regulated, or they will continue to increase their prices. Currently, there is no control.

Smart meters are bad for your health ( they use Electromagnetic Radiation like microwave and cell phones,but in a much higher concentration). Besides, it is not mandatory to have one. I refused to have a smart meter and still have my analog meter. I had to pay $75 as an "opt out" fee plus $10 each month in addition to my electrical bills. The fees are supposed to go up, may be double, in 2013.

We should approach gun ownership in the same way we handle automobile ownership- licencing and mandatory liability insurance because mistakes will happen like accidently killing over 3500 children a year- every year. The NRA should provide the insurance for the gun owner/gun and help them reduce accidental gun killings by better gun management.

Support for mental health services in wake of Newtown child killings.

Our country could come together to honor the children killed at Sandy Hook Elementary School by creating a Forever Stamp and using a portion of it to fund a gun buy-back program. We would use the 20 pictures as a way of always remembering what a loss these children's families are suffering and never forgetting how many other's die each day from gun related deaths.
