  • Dark Knight Shooting a Call to Stop Violence
    As we have witnessed yet another tragic act of violence, we need to renew our resolve to strengthen the moral fabric our nation. Violence can only cease when all human beings love, cherish, and respect human life. Not only must we teach children to love, cherish, and respect human life in our homes and in our places of worship, but also in our schools.

  • Free Captain Paul Watson, Sea Shepherd
    7/20 - Today marks 68 days of Captain Paul Watson’s detainment in Germany on an outrageous, alleged charge of “a violation of ship traffic". Captain Watson has dedicated his life to saving whales and all living things in the oceans. This is another attempt to stop him from harassing those that hunt in the oceans. It is time to use the power of the USA to free him.

  • Equality
    I am 14 and I am a proud bisexual, and I think we should push just a little harder. We need to create equality for the LGBT community. Our country was based on equal opportunity and that is being taken away from us.

  • Regulate Guns is Good Business
    Gun violence affects everyone. I doubt the founding fathers wanted US citizens to be armed and dangerous a la Rambo. We should not allow weapons in the hands of anyone, at anytime, for any reason. No questions asked. If USA is to excel it is because we can change policies and adapt. It should be a part of our Homeland Security.

  • Stop Gun Violence
    Stop selling rapid fire and guns that shoot several rounds of ammunition. Not everyone hunts game and if they do, they should be limited to a rifle, not a gun that is designed for battlefields.

  • Stop Taxing Social Security Retirement Benefits
    I am taking Social Security retirement benefits early in order to make ends meet. Of course, I am being penalized for doing this by receiving a lesser amount. On top of that I am being taxed for this portion of my income. Since the Republicans are so keen on cutting taxes, perhaps we should end the income tax on what was intended to be an entitlement and for which we have paid in all of our working lives.
