My right to not fear for my life, liberty and happiness trumps misinformed paranoids' claims to unregulated gun ownership. Do not let the railings of the rabid right prevent the voice of the majority of Americans from being heard. We support universal gun registration and a ban on assault weapons.

Community, it is time we all stand together - We have a VOICE. We are constantly having to take concessions - jobs, pay, medical, our children’s education – everything is costing more and now this... Mayor Nutter needs to go after unpaid Real Estate Taxes. Over $472 million dollars of revenue. Very important let your voice be heard - attend the AVI Tax Meetings at City Hall, Room 400 on April 9 from 5 PM to 7 PM , April 16, 5 PM to 7 PM, April 23 from 6 PM to 8 PM - City Council and Members at Large who represent us, need to stand together and vote no.

Cutting Medicare benefits would put a hardship on our senior citizens!

Please sign this petition today for SC governor Nikki Haley to accept the federal money for Medicare under Affordable Care Act, that will create tens of thousands of jobs in SC. Please go to RemedySC.com to sign it.

Our conscience will not allow us to believe this is the right practice. There have to other ways to achieve the same goal. Do not change to a chained CPI system.

I know of many who have suffered from gun violence, suicides included over my 73 year life span--neighbors, relatives, school mates, children of my students.

Rise of Health care and limited access to treatments.

My husband served 22 years and is about to lose his Tricare Prime benefits because of where we live. People already on the plan should be grandfathered.

It is rumored that President Obama feels he must descend to pandering to certain Tea-Party-inspired demands to make cuts in Social Security, and other programs deemed "entitlements." This is outrageous, and we beg honest and brave legislators to fight against the very idea. I, like many millions, live on the Social Security check I paid into all my life. My taxes pay the Legislators' salaries, and they sit around and block relief and progress. WHO are the entitled?? This sick perception of our democratic republic must be cured. Vote NO on Social Security cuts and/or dismemberment.

I am not personally affected, other than disliking injustice.

Why the urgency to cut into Social Security and veterans' benefits when so many Americans' rely on these benefits alone? The chained CPI will harm many Americans and weigh down many able to survive economically. Where are the cries to cut the most bloated budget of all, the military and DOD? Do we have cost overruns every year, year after year with Social Security---no--it's projected to run short in 20 years. In this day and age when the rich and corporations are not even paying taxes or the lowest ever and hiding their money in overseas accounts why don't we deal with what's really underlying our deficit--those that don't pay their fair share.

Governor Mark Dayton of Minnesota has been quoted as saying "I was not aware" over many recent issues cropping up in Minnesota. For example, the stadium being built using tax payer money, will now, most likely, require general fund dollars, taking money from schools and other important programs.
