I'm a mother, a grandmother, and a nurse. I've worked in urban hospitals that have had to be locked down because of gun violence. The problem is escalating!! Another school in CO on the eve of Sandy Hook!

Profits should not come from murderer's, or those who push and bully people around, and I am starting this petition to weaken the stronghold that the gun industry has on our proud Commonwealth! I just want to save people from the devastating losses that seem to be running rampant.

In the last 10 years, I've watched as more and more people have been killed by guns in mass shootings. When Sandy Hook occurred, I was confident that this nation would finally become disgusted with the gun industry and the politicians who protect it. Instead, our leaders do nothing. Well, maybe we can't get Congress to pass even an assault rifle ban, but, at least, we can stop financially supporting the gun industry with public dollars.

As a high school teacher, a mother, a relative of Columbine High School survivors, and a gun owner, I am appalled by the lack of concern politicians have had in creating real solutions to gun control. Our community's safety can only be secured when common sense is used when discussing gun control issues. But while the gun industry's political power is still strong, there is a way to help. Right now there are many city and state pension funds that are supported with dollars from the gun industry. Demand that such pension funds divest from the gun industry as a means to weaken the political power held by the gun industry and to clear the way for common sense gun violence prevention laws.

Until there is proper control of sale and ownership of guns, Tennessee governmental entities should not be in the business of making money from investments in the gun industry. The gun industry needs to help promote the control of the sale and ownership of guns.

To have Arizone divest the state pension fund from companies profiting from the sale and /or manufacture of guns.

I want a better gun free Enviroment for my Children

As a mom I'm prepared to do everything in my power to keep kids safe from gun violence. As a medical professional, I will do everything in my power to prevent more deaths due to senseless gun violence.

My mom feels terrible when she eats food with genetically modified ingredients, like corn or beet sugar. Everyone should be able to know - before they buy something - if it has any GMO components.

To keep the Mt. Soledad cross. Why dishonor the majority to please a few intolerants? To protect our rights. To stop the stripping of the rights of Christians.

I was in the hospital and checked out at 10:00 AM. I noticed on my bill I was charged for that day. When I asked what constituted a day I was referred to my Medical Provider. When I asked my Medical Provider I was referred to their booklet which simply stated what the amount of my co-payment was without explaining what constituted a day. Before 12PM, After 12PM ?? Since they never told me, I refused to pay for that day. They threatened to report me to a credit agency. I still refused to pay. I then checked with Medicare regulations which states: THE LAST BILLABLE DAY YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR IS THE DAY PRECEDING THE DAY OF DISCHARGE. I t's the law, yet many hospitals charge for the day of discharge which amounts to HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS of ILLEGAL CHARGES EVERY YEAR. The hospital cancelled the charge for the extra day for me. BUT What about you and your friends? Whose looking out for your protection? This 87 year old needs help to STOP THESE ILLEGAL CHARGES FROM BEING IMPOSED. Please alert your friends. WE NEED SIGNATURES BY JANUARY 31,2014.

The North Central district of Hollywood, FL needs a large, safe park that 1) Children can walk or bike to 2) That native species can breed in 3) That water can drain in when it floods. 4) That bikers can pedal in. The fifty acres of Sunset Golf must remain green space , not have more concrete poured on it. If it changes to anything, that should be a public park.
