Rolling Stone thought it was cute to put Boston Marathon Bomber Dzokhar Tsarnaev on the cover of their magazine like he's some sort of rock star. The real rock stars are the survivors, the first responders, the officers who helped in Watertown and those who were murdered by these cowards. Let's show Rolling Stone that this kind of insensitive sensationalist journalism will not be tolerated by banning their magazine from news stands...not just for a month, but indefinitely!

This woman fired 1 warning shot against a known woman beater that threatened to kill her and was sentenced to 20 yrs in prison without parole.

The verdict in the George Zimmerman trial for killing Trayvon Martin an innocent Black teenager, is an outrage! These stand your ground laws allow for the George Zimmerman's of the world to profile and Kill our children and get away with it. IT MUST STOP! We must demand a change in these laws in all the states that have them, starting with Florida. Boycott Florida until these changes are made!

Florida's "stand your ground" law set the stage for the miscarriage of justice we just witnessed in the George Zimmerman case, undermining justice in the wake of Trayvon Martin's death. Unfortunately, unless we eradicate "stand your ground" and other "shoot first" laws, which exist in more than 30 states, we will have more Trayvon's and more senseless killings. Please join us in calling on our elected officials to take leadership in dismantling these laws.

The LA Times, NYTimes, NPR and other media report that 158 women have undergone sterilization in California prisons without the required approval of the state medical committee between 2005 and 2010. The sterilizations were not medically necessary and the victims report that they were coerced into the procedure. We demand answers -- the idea of forced sterilizations bring up the worst of eugenics and of 1939 Germany, not 2013 California. Who was responsible for these sterilizations? Why were they performed when not medically necessary? Why was one of the women's ovaries removed when she specifically told her doctor she intended to have children in the future? Involuntarily removing a woman’s ovaries or pressuring her into a sterilization while incarcerated is absolutely unacceptable. Demand Gov. Brown immediately launch an investigation to determine who is responsible and to ensure this never happens again.

I am a huge proponent of our Freedom of Speech rights - but I am so not down with Rolling Stone magazine putting the picture of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev on the cover - what do you think?

BAD LAWS MAKE FOR BAD VERDICTS. IN LIGHT OF THE RECENT ZIMMERMAN TRIAL, WHERE THE JUDGE USED SYG IN HER INSTRUCTIONS TO THE JURORS, IT IS OBVIOUS THAT THIS LAW MUST BE REPEALED.

We as Nevadans don't agree with any law that give anybody the right to kill based off of unjustified paranoia and we would like to be a progressive state that moves forward in the spirit of humanity. Please join the fight!

Fracking in California would be insane. We are the food basket of the United States. Do you really want to chance contaminating the water that irrigates the food that feeds the nation. Earthquake is another big scare.

El Representante Daniel Webster afirma que "las familias fuertes hacen contribuciones indispensables para la prosperidad de nuestra nación". Sin embargo, ya la Cámara de Representantes debate la reforma migratoria – y Webster TODAVÍA no apoya una reforma que mantenga las familias unidas. Dile Rep. Webster que apoye las familias de su distrito y que se esfuerce para aprobar una reforma migratoria integral con un camino a la ciudadanía.

See link for full story: http://www.blackcollegian.com/florida-man-gets-20-years-in-state-prison-for-shooting-car/ Joseph Dejoie was attacked on his own front lawn. He shot (wounded) his assailant, and a bullet hit the assailant's car. As a result, Dejoie was sentenced to 20 years in state prison, while his attacker went free! What!? NOT GUILTY for wounding the attacker, but 20 YEARS, under the 10-20-Life Law, for shooting his car! This madness has to END! Please sign the petition to appeal Joseph Dejoie's sentence. He had no prior convictions, and does not belong in prison! His daughter needs her father! FREE JOSEPH DEJOIE!!

In January, President Obama declared that all Americans deserve a living wage. Now, he has the opportunity to quickly and easily make that happen for 2,000,000 Americans by issuing an executive order requiring all federal contractors to comply with the Service Contract Act. Government contractors employ more workers without a living wage than McDonald's and Walmart COMBINED. President Obama can change that with a stroke of his pen.
