Governor Brewer: the statements made by Judge Hatch that "blame the victim" are an outrage!Judge Jacqueline Hatch would dare blame the victim of a sexual assault for the attack, and declined to give the police officer convicted of assaulting her a jail sentence or have him register as a sex offender. As an individual who worked in a rape crisis center as part of my internship while obtaining my bachelors degree in social work, I heard statements similar to those of Judge Hatch by nurses and others in professional positions that indicated their belief that "had the victim not been dressed like that, or been in that place at that time" she wouldn't have been raped. Judge Hatch's statements are no different and no less outrageous and demeaning to victims of sexual assault everywhere. Governor Jan Brewer appointed Judge Hatch to the Arizona Superior Court in Coconino County and should be called upon to censure her!5 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Sharon Travis

Donot Sale or Lease Belle Isle to the State of MichiganThe citizens of Detroit are requesting that the Detroit City Council and mayor not lease Belle Isle to the State of Michigan or any other entity. It is a travesty for the citizens to lose complete control over the management and operation of Belle Isle. We believe strongly that the citizens can assemble a strong and effective strategic plan for the both the operation and financial support of the Belle Isle so that it will remain the people's jewel and a leisure time location for all.11 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Dennis Talbert

Ban drug company ads on televisionWhen my daughter was 6 years old she saw an ad on a television commercial for a drug for "restless leg syndrome" and thought she had it from the symptoms they described. She is a normal kid who tossed and turned when she slept like most of us do occassionally. It was not "restless leg syndrome" (if that is even a real condition). They should not be able to put snipets of conditions, and the magic pill to fix it on television commercials. It is brainwashing everyone to think their is a pill for everything, and that they are possibly sick when they are probably not. That is for a doctor to determine. I am sick of being bombarded with this stuff, and we are becoming a nation of over medicated people. Let the drug companies put stuff on the internet where you have to do a search on a topic, not on public television where we have no control over what topic is popping up in front of our kids during commercials.5 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Chelley A.

Wait 2 TextThis petition is about the need for us as a people to wait 2 text. I have seen the commericals, even an youtube message about someone who was killed because they were "texting." This is an serious issue that affects everyone. I don't know anyone personally who was killed by texting but I am deeply moved by this because so many people are ending up dead because they are too distracted while driving. And texting on your cell phone when driving is the last thing anyone needs to be doing. So wait....2 text.2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Rolanda Wright

Presidential Debate ModeratorCandidates at televised political debates often don't answer the question that was asked, but instead, ramble on about a topic that puts them in a better light than an actual answer to the question would. A moderator who would interrupt over and over to get the candidate on topic would be extremely useful. Otherwise viewers just get another political ad spoken by the candidate instead of hard answers to hard questions.18 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Janet Redfield
