Pro Peace = eradication of ignorance and fear/hate through educationMandatory education on people's cultures and heritages which make up America's population is needed to prevent spread of ignorance, fear and hate especially in cases where it's misdirected. Also education on the constitution is needed to be implemented in the military, police and law enforcement and high school as a mandatory level of proficiency. This weekend there was a mass murder on a Sikh Temple or Gwardtha and the perpetrator likely thought he was attacking Muslims. The majority of the country does not know anything about the religion of Islam in the first place. Misunderstood, misguided anger. Military members take an oath to "support and defend the constitution of the united states against all enemies foreign and domestic." Yet after they take their oath there is no education or discussions on the constitution unless you have someone who wants to stick out their necks and have a private class with their troops. They have no idea why they are in Iraq and preparing to war with Iran as well as the attempted long term occupation of Afghanistan after Russia's failed 15 year attempt and bankruptcy and fall as a country. All the mandatory training in the military and none of it is on the constitution or the religions of the world which is the first thing we are taught that this "War on Terrorism" is from .... key word RIP Religious Ideological Political.... reasons for terrorist acts. Labels and racial slurs are perpetuated in the military which may have contributed and lead to the shooting in Fort Hood Texas as well as this last shooting in the Sikh temple. When people have a basic understanding of each other they have proven to get along better. Many Americans and in other countries work together side by side regardless of religious denomination or ethnicity. Multicultural heritage celebrations, food and festivals are great and do wonders for the communities. It can't be limited to one group and groups should not be excluded unless they perpetuate hate and fear through the spread of like messages of ignorance.11 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Robert Hill

Traffic cameras are not constitutionalTraffic cameras and other 'secret' cameras should be banned as unconstitutional under the Fourth Amendment! Law enforcement is treating them like a cash cow. Went to traffic school with 40to45 others. At $224 per person, they make about $10,000 per class and will call you the next day for a donation. These cameras make my driving less safe as my nerves are affected!8 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Patricia Davisd

Fix CongressI'm concern congress has lost touch with reality and only do what benefits themselves and not the majority of Americans causing the downward spiral of the american way of life. I'm calling on congress to start representing the majority of Americans by changing the benefits they have from our government to what the benefits are of the 99%, its called the Congressional Reform Act of 2012 by Warren Buffet.18 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Mark Krey

Demand Fl have a nurse to patient ratio lawCurrently nurses are often forced between doing what they know is right and refusing to care for more patients then they are capable of and staying employed. The quality of care suffers and patients get drive through care because nurses have know time to monitor and assess properly. This is a law they has been attempted before and I know some are against it I guess they'll have a change of thought when one of there loved ones dies because the nurse has a 10 patient work load with one or no aid and just didn't have time to provide care the way she was trained to do.818 of 1,000 SignaturesCreated by All nurses

GMO Food Safety Warning LabelAs there is a lack of study concerning the health effects of GMO food products such as sweet corn produced by biotech giant Monsanto. Consumers need to be aware of food products which have been genetically modified for full disclosure purposes. Similar to a surgeon general's warning on various products the statement should read something such as: "GMO - This product has been genetically modified, a lack of study makes it impossible to know whether there are associated health risks."6 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Frank Barilone Jr
