In 1994, 2 Black Men Lamarr Davis, 21 years of age and Arthur Davis Jr., 25 years of age, were charged with aggravated robbery. No one was shot, stabbed, or killed during this robbery which took place at Prattsville One Stop store in Grant County outside of Sheridan Arkansas (a very well known racist area). Both of these brothers were given a sentence of life in prison without parole. The robbery was a first offense for Lamarr Davis. They received excessive sentencing, a direct violation of their eighth amendment.The Eighth Amendment of the Constitution states: 'Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted. ' The amendment is meant to safeguard Americans against excessive punishments. The Davis brothers were sentenced to life and have served 26 years to date. They have been left to spend the remaining days of their lives in prison and their crime does not fit with the time they received. We must act NOW to end this racially charged excessive sentencing. We are demanding justice for the Davis brothers. They have given up so much of their lives to the prison system and Enough is Enough. We Must seek just for this injustice NOW! Sign the petition demanding Governor Asa Hutchinson immediately grant time cut/clemency for the Davis brothers.

To hear "I can't breath" 11-12 times while bystanders beg the officer to get off George Floyd's neck because he is killing him is life changing. This officer did not remove his full body weight from George Floyd's neck while he too begged and pleaded for his life. George Floyd's exact words to the officer were, "You're killing me." The officer remained on George Floyd's neck for 5-8 minutes with his hand in his pocket supporting the fact that George Floyd was no threat to these officers; therefore, the continued restraint with his full body weight to George Floyd's neck is criminal. A blatant violation of the city's police policy deems the officers' acts criminal. No human being can withstand a trauma of this magnitude. It depicts the lowest level of inhumanity. This egregious act violated George Floyd's civil rights; sentencing him to death without evidence that the 'misdemeanor' crime being charged was factual. Implementing "The George Floyd Protection Act" will save the lives of many and stop this pattern of blatant homicidal acts by those who have no regard to the oath to protect and serve. Knowing there are penalties, fines, and potential imprisonment can save lives.

Minneapolis police kill black people at a rate 13x higher than white people - a larger racial disparity than almost anywhere else in the nation. This is unconscionable. These grave injustices have got to stop, immediately! You have the opportunity to redress some of the wrong that’s been done by prosecuting all of the police officers who were involved in murdering George Floyd. The police need to stop justifying hate crimes and MURDER by giving causes for the use of lethal and excessive force, instead of making police de-escalate & holding them accountable for their inherent biases. No human being should have to live in mortal fear because of racial profiling and criminalizing black and brown men in Minneapolis and in other American cities!

IF YOU DO NOT STAND UP FOR MISTREATMENT IT PERSISTS! (READ ALL) This is so important because when you do not speak up against unfair treatment it continues. Most residents were charged for living on campus during a semester we were forced to leave. We were not advised to take out things under the impression that we would come back. We then pay for a traditional semester while being restricted to online courses with teachers who are not familiar with online learning. In addition, we were forced to live without our summer clothes, dorm TV, or other personal effects for months due to a poor judgement call on administration. Lastly, we are now expected to travel to campus to pack and remove our things in a short 2.5 hours slot allotted from administration, or pay to have all of our things packed and stored with no consideration of students circumstances. We cannot allow this to continue. Us, the students are the customers our participation, loans, parent/student payments keep that institution afloat and we have a right to speak out when we feel we are not being considered. If you are unsatisfied with ANY of this sign this.

Make no mistake: President Trump’s daily attacks against vote-by-mail are dangerous -- and they’re putting our right to vote in jeopardy. Trump -- who voted absentee in Florida’s primary this year -- has been railing against vote-by-mail on Twitter for months. He’s spouting baseless claims about the reform -- and he even threatened to withhold federal funding from states that encourage it. But Trump has also admitted the real reason he opposes vote-by-mail. According to an interview with Fox & Friends, he thinks if everyone can vote -- “you'd never have a Republican elected in this country again.” That’s right -- the president doesn’t care if Americans are denied their fundamental right to vote… as long as it benefits him and his party. No one should have to choose between risking their health or losing their right to vote during the COVID-19 crisis. And vote-by-mail can help -- it’s been tried and tested in states across the country and has proven to be a secure and convenient option for voters. Plus, vote-by-mail is a paper-based system that’s not hackable -- and can easily be audited to ensure election results are correct. That’s why many leading Republican officials support vote-by-mail. We must show Donald Trump just how wrong he is: EVERY eligible American should be able to vote, no matter who they want to vote for. Add your name to condemn the president’s attacks on vote-by-mail -- and urge Congress to fund the reforms voters need to cast their ballots safely this year.

It happened again. His name was George Floyd, and on May 25th he was murdered by Minneapolis police officers. George Floyd was a Black man, who was murdered in broad daylight after a grocery clerk called the police thinking he was writing a bad check. For seven minutes, George laid on the street while officers Derek Chauvin and Tou Thao held their knee on his neck as he was struggling to breathe. He lost consciousness and yet they continued to strangle him. Numerous bystanders pleaded with the police officer to let him go, while Floyd said the words “I can’t breathe,” several times, but the officer refused to remove his knee from Floyd’s neck. After the murder, officers called his death a "medical problem." And it wasn't until the video was released clearly showing them choking him, did we finally see the truth. This was a blatant and disgusting coverup to prevent accountability for their brutal act of police violence. This is incomprehensible. His life was taken in a senseless act of violence at the hands of the Minneapolis Police Department, all for being “suspected” of writing a bad check. Police continue to hunt down Black folks in cities across America and we refuse to sit silent. It was not too long ago we heard Eric Garner utter the same last words, “I can’t breathe.” And just months ago, officers stormed Breonna Taylor’s home and murdered her in a botched investigation. On May 26th, officers Derek Chauvin and Tou Thao, and two other officers who were present, were fired from the Minneapolis Police Department. This is a step in the right direction to hold the officers accountable for murdering George Floyd but more action must be taken. We are calling for further action from Mayor Jacob Frey and County Attorney Freeman. Mayor Frey must 1) block the officers from receiving their pensions and 2) ban them from ever becoming police officers again. And County Attorney Freeman must immediately charge the officers with murder.

Measles has been on the rise for the past couple of years in Tarrant county. The majority of deaths from measles are under the age of 5. Additionally, in 2019, Tarrant County was 1 of 25 counties in the US which were most at risk for an outbreak of measles. We need to protect our children and those who may not be able to protect themselves.

Many of us are suffering economically due to the COVID crisis.Sm businesses,frontline workers, individuals don't have enough for everyday expenses.The Heroes Act would help w/that!It's tax payer money, that has been deducted from our pay specifically for times like this.You act as if it's your money out of your pocket, & yet I doubt you've contributed much to it as the wealthy don't pay their share in taxes.

Wheeling is the friendly city. Hate has no home here. All kinds welcome. Mountaineers are always free.

This concerns Governor Andrew Cuomo’s Executive Order 202.10 dated March 7, 2020 which prohibited pharmacies from dispensing hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) “except when written as prescribed for a FDA approved indication or as part of state approved clinical trial related to COVID-19 for a patient who has tested positive for COVID-19, with such test result documented as part of the prescription. No other experimental or prophylactic use shall be permitted and any permitted prescription is limited to one fourteen day prescription with no refills”. 1 However, there is evidence that indicate a benefit to SAR-CoV-2 (COVID-19) patients who have been given HCQ in the early stages of the illness. In April 20, 2020, Congressional Research Service created a document for Members and Committees of Congress which indicated that the “FDA has authorized the emergency use of two drugs: hydroxychloroquine sulfate (“hydroxylchloroquine”) and chloroquine phosphate (“chloroquine”). The agency has determined that based on the totality of scientific evidence, “it is reasonable to believe that [chloroquine] and [hydroxychloroquine] may be effective in treating COVID-19,” and that when used in accord with the conditions of the emergency use authorization (EUA), the known and potential benefits outweigh the known and potential risks of these drugs.”2 If these are called “unprecedented times” we are living, why is Governor Cuomo limiting our healthcare choices to fight against COVID-19 without hospitalization? The Trickett Wender, Frank Mongiello, Jordan McLinn, and Matthew Bellina Right to Try Act of 2017 authorized the use of unapproved medical products by patients diagnosed with a terminal illness in accordance with State Law and for other purposes.3 Didn’t Governor Cuomo state “people will die” numerous times? In this document you also have stakeholders who find the use of HCQ as “anectodal and that expanding access may jeopardize research into the drug”. 4 Attached is compendium of peer-reviewed evidence indexed in the PubMed, “Sequential CQ/HCQ Research Papers and Reports”, which states “the HCQ-AZ combination, when started immediately after diagnosis, appears to be a safe and efficient treatment for COVID-19, with a mortality rate of 0.5%, in elderly patients. It avoids worsening and clears virus persistence and contagious infectivity in most cases.”5 In addition, a 2004 research paper titled “In vitro inhibition of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus by chloroquine” 6, and 2005 research paper in the Virology Journal titled “Chloroquine is a potent inhibitor of SARS coronavirus infection and spread” 7 supports that CQ does help stop the progression of SARS-CoV. A Monroe NY physician caused some controversy, Dr. Vlamidir Zelenko, by publicizing his positive patient results on YouTube about his COVID-19 regimen using (HCQ-Zn-Azithromycin [AZ]) for only five days. These things cannot be ignored. Perhaps his results should have been documented better but aren’t these “unprecedented times”. Here is a solution, without violating HIPPA rules, when a physician electronically sends a prescription to a pharmacy on a COVID-19 positive patient, have a dataset which captures the prescription and generate a number prefix by the physician office number. Thereby, not violating HIPPA and stats can be generated. A follow-up by the physician office should be done after five days to see how the patient is doing. The follow-up must be documented in the patient electronic file that will populate the dataset. Example of a separate dataset that can be incorporated when necessary: SARS-CoV-2 Results HCQ Requested by Patient HCQ Prescibed HCQ Waiver Form Signed Follow Up After 5 days Pos ☐ Neg☐ Yes ☐ No ☐ Yes☐ No☐ Yes ☐ N/A☐ Improved ☐ Required Hospitization☐ Didn't Improve ☐ Death☐ This isn’t suggesting that all COVID-19 positive patients be mandated to receive HCQ, but if the patient “wants to try” that option should not be denied. Every FDA approve drug has side effects and they are allowed to be sold with a disclosure. If litigation is a concern have the patient sign a waiver. Based on this evidence presented a request that Governor Cuomo rescind that part of the Executive Order limiting the use of HCQ and further order administrative agencies not impose any requirements on the prescription of HCQ intended to treat the coronavirus illness that do not apply equally to all approved medications that may be used off-label for any purpose. 1State of New York from the Executive Chamber, Executive Order 202.10, March 7, 2020 2,4Congressional Research Services, “Treatment of COVID-19: Hydroxylcloroquine and Chloroquine”, https://crsreports.congress.gov, April 20, 2020 3Trickett Wendler, Frank Mongiello, Jordan McLinn, and Matthew Bellina Right to Try Act of 2017, January 3, 2018 5PubMed, “Sequential CQ/HCQ Research Papers and Reports”, January to April 20, 2020 6 BBRC, “In vitro inhibition of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus by chloroquine”, August 11, 2004 7Virology Journal, “Chloroquine is a potent inhibitor of SARS coronavirus infection and spread”, July 12, 2005

South Carolina has effectively bent the COVID19 curve by following a stay-at-home order for several weeks. Knowing that asymptomatic people can spread the virus, the only way to continue to control the epidemics while safely reopening the economy is to require people to wear a mask in public places and at work, in addition to appropriate social distancing. If I am fortunate enough to have a job that allows me to work from home and choose to only shop in retails where customers and employees are required to wear face protection, I am confident that extending this rule to every business would allow a lot more people to feel safer going out. Our economy would then restart much faster!

Let's show the President and his administration what 100,000 of something looks like. To date, finding 100,000 deaths in the US from COVID-19 during the past 4 months describes a ridiculously large number - a total exceeded (for example) only by the total US military deaths from either the 4+ years of WW II or the 4+ years American Civil War. Ranking 3rd on that list is not an achievement of which to be proud That the 100,000 deaths happened so swiftly, in so many locales, and with so little recognition of the actual spread of the virus speaks to the total lack of sincere concern for all those affected and in particular of the empty expressions of empathy to all the patients, their families and loved ones, as well as the medical and support staffs and organizations who ran toward the pandemic to help rather than retire to some more serene place of safety. 100,000 deaths and the corresponding muddled and ineffective efforts offered by the Executive leadership stands out as clearly as the pervasive absence of any continuing care or concern about the public at large. The mixed messages, fits and starts of policy or proclamation, and valuing of business results over peoples' health, lives, families, futures and contributions to society tells the shockingly dismissive story of what matters to the rich and powerful. We can inform our President and his associates of the real magnitude of concern by signing this petition in multiple hundreds of thousands so as to dwarf the sad effects of their feckless attempts to downplay the realities of the issues. Let's cap the many signatures with a tearful emoji from each signer!
