I'm just tired of seeing dogs get shot and killed by cops. It is mostly pit bulls or dogs that resemble pits. More than half of the pits shot and killed are wrongfully labeled as soon. And The cops do it justice because the dog Is scared so its growling. I've even seen it done to a pit that was wagging it's tail and not being aggressive but the cop shot it in the head and claimed he feared for his life. This needs to end everywhere. The best option for everyone would be to use a tranquillizer gun. Besides, if they have time to shoot a bullet, they have time to shoot a tranquillizer dart.

As an Olmsted County Resident I refuse to sit idly by and watch Board waste tax revenue by locking up illnesses such as alcoholism/addiction at the cost of up to 50,000 per year. When it has been proven time and again that those who qualify for the services of a drug court do not get better in jail, but get better with treatment and supportive services which cost far less than incarceration. Olmsted County Community Corrections already work with eligible offenders in a 'Highly Structured,' and monitored treatment option which is held in the detention center. Let us now bring the courts into the mix like Counties all over this nation..

So many children struggle with this disorder and I have personally seen the effects of APD. With APD not being recognized, my daughter can only receive a Section 504 with limited accommodations. That's not enough. She deserves more. She needs more. Unfortunately, she can't get more. Let's stop the insanity! Please sign and get APD recognized for ALL children with processing disorders - equality for ALL!!!!!

Reasonable Americans realized within a short time after the Benghazi attacks that Congressman Darrell Issa--and the GOP--only intended to cynically use the horrible event as a political tool to discredit and undermine the President and the State Department. Those same Republicans are continually voting against, and have successfully denied, taxpayer-funded money for much needed social services in our communities. WE, the taxpayers and bosses of the U.S. Congress, are sick of paying for these absurd conspiracies when millions of children are starving and many thousands of our veterans are sleeping homeless on sidewalks. WE demand that a full accounting be made of the costs associated with the Benghazi investigations and that Darrell Issa, a multimillionaire worth over 500 million dollars, immediately return the money to the U.S. treasury. Background: On November 21, 2014 the Republican-led House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI) released the findings of a nearly two year investigative report into the attacks on two U.S. facilities in Benghazi. This report, like many before it, debunked myths about the attacks, concluding that there was no intelligence failure prior to the attacks, no stand down order was issued during attacks, and the administration's initial talking points about the attacks were based on the Central Intelligence Agency's assessment at the time, as the administration has long maintained. The Committee also found that there was no intelligence failure prior to the attacks. The GOP, with Congressman Darrell Issa as the main ring-leader, has relentlessly pursued an investigation into the 2012 attacks in Benghazi, Libya. These hearings have been cheered on by right-wing media, and according to a Pentagon commander have reportedly cost taxpayers multiple millions of dollars and wasted thousands of hours in government funded personnel time.

WANT BUFFS FOR SHAMANS

I dont want one US soldier or Iranian to die because the war corporations have bought out congress.

We are all affected by this. It is designed to eliminate the Electoral College.

Moving our Coats-Erwin kids to Dunn Middle to settle overcrowding. This is a short term solution and will not help the problem. We need more schools or other solutions. Please sign my petition if you live in Coats, Erwin, Buies Creek or Dunn and if you are 18 and older.

As a psychologist, I and many colleagues have seen how the absence of Out-of-Network benefits has hurt many people by creating an unnecessary obstacle to getting needed care.

To save the pit bull Zeus from being taken away from his family. The town wants to get rid of the family dog. This is cruel and just wrong.

My petition is about immigration reform. Believe it or not, immigration is important for the U.S. as immigrants normally take jobs that most Americans won't do. Immigrants work hard for us and their families; they don't deserve to be deported when they're helping our economy.

Because Speaker John Boehner won't do his job and work with the President or the American people, he needs to step down as speaker. If he won't step down, he should be impeached!
