I am not one for unneeded violence or violence where someone is brutally killed. That being said games like Grand Theft Auto, World of Warcraft, and Super Smash Brothers are all games i play because killing isn't the objective but something you do in the game to advance a story, enjoy yourself, or make in game decisions. "Hatred" has no story, no care for the individuals in it, and no need to honestly be made. Everyone will cry and say "oh well its just a game, games don't make people into killers or crazy people", and personally i 100% agree. However this "game" isn't really your conventional shooter where you kill aliens trying to destroy your planet, or where you shoot fireballs at zombies, or even where you can stick a goats tongue to an axe and chase people around. This "game" is a murder-suicide simulator. This allows people who are so inclined to take up arms against "the human worms feasting on the worlds carcass". - an actual quote from the player character You play as a man who wants to for no real reason kill any person that he sees and die. The creators of the graphics engine that brought this game into being is actively seeking that their logo is removed from this game as to how awful it really is. I urge everyone to sign this petition to remove this game from the shelves before it even gets the chance to make it into a TV ad. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RrX7G-1xPLs Game Trailer link for reference above.

It's time for Washington State 5th District voters to put Joe Pakootas in the House and send Cathy home to her family in California. Please send in your ballots with your vote for Joe, and remind your family and friends to do so as well. Though Cathy claims support of VAWA, she and her fellow House Republicans reduce funding every chance they get. Joe supports VAWA and full funding of it. Joe Pakootas will vote for the protection of women everywhere. Go to http://www.pakootasforcongress.com/#!issues/c1han to learn of Joe's background and why he should have your support.

Our son Hunter, has turned his life around and wants to continue going to school and the board of Elizabethtown area school district will not allow him to attend because of a past expulsion. They didn't take the time to see what he has accomplished since the incident and say they are not obligated to help due to his age. Anyone who knows the man that he has become can attest to the fact that he deserves the chance to continue his education...

Voter turnout is pathetic in this country. I am concerned that the political ads increase voter apathy and make the public less inclined to have their voice heard in the political process. No matter how you lean politically, the ads are awful and don't further our democracy. Banning political ads and instead airing PSA's of this nature will increase participation and lead to greater trust in the political process.

We, the undersigned, wish to express our concern regarding the recently enacted policy of photo-video enforcement of speed limits in Nassau County school zones. While we appreciate the intention to increase safety, we question the fairness of the way in which this policy has been implemented. Engineering and education should always precede enforcement. Specifically, there has been a sudden computerized enforcement of school zone speed limits that have rarely, if ever, been enforced before. This has resulted in multiple, though unintentional and unknowing, violations and huge fines. This does not constitute fairness or due process. In the interest of compassion, a warning would be more appropriate for first-time offenders, as well as for those who may have committed multiple violations in a very short period, but were informed of the first one and subsequent ones only weeks later. We agree with Judy Jacobs, who has called for the County Executive to "stop the program cold, now, and reassess how to continue in a fair and equitable way." We, therefore, petition the Legislature for a moratorium, and the courts for leniency, in the administration of fines and penalties assessed under this new policy, until a fair and compassionate system can be put into operation.

Diana is a very responsible and hardworking woman who has done so much for the girls of Taft-Vandoren. She truly deserves her job as RA.

I have seen lives destroyed by just a few months in prison. Going to prison in America is just going into a hornets nest. People are forced to become Racist , Predators , and overly aggressive humans to survive prison. It is hard to adjust back to society when you have lived under the harsh circumstances of the American prison system.

Anita Sarkeesian, the feminist cultural critic who has become a lightning rod for challenging the troubling way women are portrayed and treated in videogames, was scheduled to speak about her work at Utah State University in Logan. A few days before her scheduled appearance, school administrators received threats of a mass shooting if they didn't cancel the event. Sarkeesian, who is used to such threats, planned to go ahead with her appearance…until university officials informed her that audience members would be permitted to bring guns into the auditorium under Utah’s campus gun laws which prohibit colleges from taking away concealed weapons from valid permit holders. Utah is the only state in the country with such a law.[1] The school not only declined to install metal detectors, it also would not conduct pat downs at the door. [2] "It's sort of mindboggling to me that they couldn't take efforts to make sure there were no guns in an auditorium that was threatened with guns and a mass shooting," Sarkeesian told The Associated Press. "I don't understand how they could be so cut and dry about it." [3] Sarkeesian’s right to speak up about violence against women has been violated. She’s been silenced by Utah’s campus gun laws that prevent reasonable precautions for securing her safety and the safety of college-age kids. Sign on to our petition now!

The Pentagon says climate change is an immediate national security threat, yet key political leaders refuse to accept this reality – including Sen. James Inhofe (R-OK). It's bad enough that Sen. Inhofe calls global warming "a hoax" even though scientific consensus exists. But for the Ranking Member of the Senate Committee on Armed Services Committee to blatantly disregard such dire warnings from military leaders shows how deep Sen. Inhofe's denial runs. Americans hate this type of ideological fervor. If enough of us speak out, Sen. Inhofe will see how out of step he is with the mainstream when it comes to climate change.

Despite branding itself as a "green" leader, eBay remains part of a climate denial group that argues global warming is "possibly beneficial." It doesn't make sense, especially after Google, Facebook, and Yahoo! just dumped the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) for "literally lying" about climate change. Let eBay's CEO know "green" leaders don't fund and associate with climate change denial.

The Tatia M. Oden French Memorial Foundation is petitioning the FDA because of adverse events associated with the use of the drug Cytotec, (Misoprostol) for cervical ripening and labor induction. When used to induce labor, Cytotec has been known to cause uterine rupture, AFE and death of the mother and or death of the child. Tatia Malika Oden French and her daughter, Zorah, are only two of the people who would be alive today had the FDA made the Searle (original manufacturer) announcement available to consumers via its website. They both died because of the amniotic fluid embolism that Tatia experienced, shortly after being administered her second dose of Cytotec on December 27, 2001. That is a fact. If Tatia’s health care provider, an obstetrician, had informed her of the manufacturers warning letter that the doctor’s office received from G.D. Searle, she would never have taken the drug. But her obstetrician chose not to share this information with her. The August 23, 2000, warning letter from the original manufacturer took an even stronger step and issued a statement sent to 200,000 OBGYN’s throughout the U.S. We quote from this statement: “Serious adverse events reported following off-label use of Cytotec in pregnant women include maternal or fetal death, uterine hyper-stimulation, rupture or perforation requiring uterine surgical repair, hysterectomy or salpingo-oophorectomy, amniotic fluid embolism, severe vaginal bleeding, retained placenta, shock, fetal bradycardia and pelvic pain.” We therefore specifically request the FDA to create a medicine guide, that states these adverse affects of Misoprostol when used off label for labor induction. If the manufacturer itself warns of death as a possibility for both mother and child, the FDA should make this known. The FDA, has a duty to publish, at the very least, all of the possible adverse events that have been reported, including those published by the original manufacturer when it is bought by a larger company. By doing this hundreds of mothers and babies lives would be saved.

I feel she was fired unjustly
