The Newtown Conn. assault on Friday December 14th 2012, occurred because we have allowed deadly assault weapons to be considered as "guns". Unleashing such a pervasive mass murder weapon into the American public should be ended. 1) Assault weapons should be banned. 2) Owners should be registered and held liable and responsible for injury to ANYONE who is wounded or killed by ANY such weapon as a Class Action suite.

Our men and women heroes in Afghanistan will be coming home to be homeless in America, trying to make the transition to civilian life, healing their wounds and fighting the mental and physical demons while searching for gainful employment. BACK OUR VETS Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mWSn1zRf3iE We need your help to aid all 50 million veterans, from World War ll up to Iraq and Afghanistan. We are not asking you for big donations, grants or to get involved doing volunteer work, unless you generously care to make that choice. However, we do need you, through the POWER- OF-THE-PEOPLE to put PRESSURE on our nation’s retailers, merchants, bankers, institutions and others to participate in helping us voluntarily raise $1 billion annually to BACK-OUR-VETS. It’s called “free enterprise” with a possibility of reducing the national debt by substituting 2 cents to relieve the money the feds spend to service veterans. We can do it by signing the PETITION which will help demonstrate that patriotic Americans want to do their fair share and help the veterans and their families. Together our 2 cents makes good common sense to assure that WE-THE-PEOPLE will do our part to BACK-OUR-VETS. Thank you for your cooperation.

HOW MUCH LONGER CAN WE CONTINUE TO HIDE OUR FACE IN THE SAND. HOW MANY DIFFERENT WAYS CAN WE COUNT THE MASS MURDERS. SCHOOLS, THEATRES, CHURCHES , STREET CORNERS WAITING FOR THE BUS. PIERS MORGAN ON CNN TOLD US RECENTLY THAT THERE WERE 35 GUN MURDERS IN ENGLAND LAST YEAR CONTRASTING TO THE U.S. IN THE THOUSANDS, NOT SURE OF THE FIGURE. COME ON CITIZENS WHERE IS YOUR VOICE? LET IT BE HEARD. "BAD THINGS KEEP HAPPENING WHEN GOOD PEOPLE STAND BY AND DO NOTHING."

20 elementary school children have been murdered by a gunman wielding a weapon capable of shooting repeating rounds. Enough is Enough. It is time for mothers and fathers and uncles and aunts and grandparents and sisters and brothers to stand up to the NRA and the gun lobby and insist that the president aggressively pursue new gun control laws for our country.

Mass murder in schools, malls, workplaces? Maybe we should attack this problem in a way that would actually be effective.

We need to make sure that another shooting doesn't happen again.

It is about banning the sale of certain semi-automatic weapons that were meant for the military and law-enforcement, to civilians. The horror of what happened in Connecticut today reminded me that our Second Amendment rights do not extend to covering the right to murder children.

Undocumented people, who live in State of California, really need a driver license for the protecting of all Californians. On this way, police officers can identify immediately the record of the driver, if he/she has been under of alcohol situation, to punish those who broke our State Laws. However, I had been affect by this, as my church's friends who give me rides to my house, officers took their cars, as they don't have a California driver license or from other US State. I seem this unfair, as California State Government need and must pass a bill into a law, a driver license for those undocumented people who really need it, who work really hard, go to the church to Praise God, and serve other.

I am not going type an elaborate message here for this petition like the others you have seen. "Today a gunman killed 26 people, 20 of them children between the ages of 5 and 10, on Friday Dec 14th at an elementary school in Newtown, Conn., about 65 miles northeast of New York City.The gunman, who was believed to be in his 20s, walked into a classroom at Sandy Hook Elementary School where his mother was a teacher. He shot and killed her and then shot 20 students, most in the same classroom.The gunman was wearing dark clothing, a mask, a bulletproof vest, and was carrying four guns. A cause and manner of death is pending." - New York Times With this recent and devastating tradegy, what more is there really to say. Something needs to be done, immediately.

The Sandy Hook Elementary School Shooting is just the latest horror of unmitigated violence against innocent children and adults. If you are for gun control or against, is no longer the issue. The issue is that the state of mental illness care in the United States is deplorable. Please sign this petion to urge The White House and Congress to legislate more preventive and diagnostic measures to help people with mental illness, whom otherwise may take actions into their own hands, as happend today in Connecticut. Please sign this petition.

"We've endured too many of these tragedies in the past few years. And each time I learn the news I react not as a president, but as anybody else would, as a parent. And that was especially true today." These words, spoken today by Pres. Barack Obama, express utter anguish in the face of an evil act: the murder of children and educators. This is not war-torn Syria, Afghanistan, or the Congo, but the site of an unspeakable tragedy -- Newtown, Connecticut. A gunman armed with semiautomatic weapons stormed the Sandy Hook Elementary School. Reports are still streaming in, but in the aftermath: 20 children and 6 adults were murdered. No one can fully answer why. But today we can change HOW. I am asking you, begging you, to please sign this petition and demand that your elected officials FIX OUR GUN LAWS. People who should not have access to guns buy them every day. Our background checks, systems of purchase, and laws have far too many loopholes and fail to protect our most innocent members of our society. We must DEMAND COMMON SENSE GUN LAWS TODAY. Please sign the petition and let's NEVER AGAIN witness a day like today! Twitter: #TodayIsTheDay

How many children will be afraid to go to school on Monday, December 17, 2012, because of the elementary school shootings in Connecticut on Friday, December 14? How much longer will we put individual gun rights above children's lives, and pretend that those rights are necessary to defend our life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness? A gun in the hands of a person is analogous to an atomic weapon in the hands of a nation. Why does anyone defend this indiscriminate proliferation?
