This petition asks our legislators to pass a bill that will outlaw any deployment or use of drones or any sort of robotic warfare, or robotic survelliance devices, in the state of California. California can be a model on this problem which relates to our civil liberties, rights to privacy, and basic human rights. This can also be a small step towards outlawing assasination of US citizens, in light of the latest escalations of the deadly uses of this technology. Let's make CA a 'hell-no', drone-free zone.

THIS PETITION IS ABOUT THE COVER-UP IN THE SHOOTING DEATH OF TRAYVON MARTIN

The “Proposed Policy on Hate and Extremist Groups” confronts the GW Law community with a challenging question: how strongly do we support the idea of a free, open, and robust exchange of ideas. It is easy to support free speech when it is not challenging, when it is not offensive, when it is agreeable. But we test our commitment to principle when speech is most provocative, when it offends us, and when it challenges us. There is no question the incident leading to this proposal was deplorable: no student should ever feel threatened or unsafe on campus. But as deplorable as that incident was, the appropriate response is not to restrict speech on campus, but rather to ensure that all views are zealously, but politely, expressed. First, the proposed policy would have an immense chilling effect on speech at GW Law. The proposed policy would: (1) require that all speakers from designated groups have a verbal disclaimer before any event that their invited speakers were from a designated hate or extremist group (as determined by the ADL or SPLC); (2) include the same disclaimer on all advertisements for the event, and (3) require that every student organization pay - from their organization’s funds - for at least two university police officers as security for their events. The effect on open and robust debate at GW will be dramatic. The GW Law community should accommodate all perspectives, and all speakers, for without free participation in the marketplace of ideas, we all lose. Indeed, this incident took place at an event hosted by Dean Alan Morrison. An event designed to include all perspectives on a controversial topic in our society. Steps should be taken to ensure that all debates are respectful, that no speaker who threatens a student is re-invited to GW Law. But this proposal is not the proper approach. It will unacceptably chill speech and academic freedom at GW Law. We ask you, the Faculty of GW Law, to oppose this policy.

While speaking at a Tea Party rally in Milwaukee, far-right Wisconsin U.S. Senator Ron Johnson stated that women who can't afford contraceptive coverage should just "Google It." Unfortunately, Ron Johnson's view that women who can't afford birth control should just "Google it" is just the latest attack in the GOP war on Wisconsin women: Scott Walker is on record as stating his support for amending our Wisconsin constitution to ban common forms of birth control and outlaw abortion across the board -- even in cases of rape and incest, or if a woman's life is in danger. Rebecca Kleefisch posted on Facebook that she agreed with the statement that "child victims of rape and incest should view their resulting pregnancies as an opportunity to turn lemons into lemonade." Foster Friess, a $104,600 donor to Scott Walker, stated on national television that women who can't afford birth control should just put a "Bayer aspirin between their knees." Right-wing members of the Republican Party are waging a war on women in Wisconsin and all across the country. By signing our letter to Senator Ron Johnson, you'll help us turn the tide and send a clear message to Scott Walker and Rebecca Kleefisch: Women are fired up to elect new leaders who will stand up for families and access to affordable, quality health care and family planning options.

Men standing up for women's unalienable reproductive rights.

We need to preserve the public education. It's the cheapest and best way for children to get an education. Vouchers on the other hand, depend on the profit motive to deliver education to our children. Companies and executives are the ones who profit from a private system, while money is drained and diverted from quality teachers and student's needs. Everyone in my family were in the public school system and did fine. My son graduated Rutgers Summa as a material science engineer.Similarly, my wife and I attended the public school system straight through college. We must make public school system stronger and not weaken it with voucher systems. We must demand that our governor end his policies of demeaning public schools and get vouchers and privitized schools out of our education system.

Stop Minnesota Republicans' attempts to amend our State Constitution. Their amendments will curtail the right to vote, infringe on the right to be represented effectively by organized labor, the right to marry the person someone loves, and will gridlock the legislature by requiring a supermajority to raise needed revenues.

We need to stop chemtrails now! Help us sign this petition to get it to our government, congress and our president. We need to know what and who is spraying these chemtrails everday.We the people have had enough and we are calling on our government to come clean and to stop spraying us with deadly chemicals..

It should not be a requirement for someone, who is already registered, to have to get a specific identification card to vote. This is a direct violation of the Civil Rights Acts of the 1960s.

Don't pass any laws that lower the unemployment compensation . Up the amount that people on unemployment receive. $240 Is not enough to live on especially for people with children . Repeal any laws that targets racial profiling like hispanics and blacks ! Give more money to the schools for education !

Recently Vermont's Attorney General has stated he doesn't have enough personnel free to fully pursue leads on child pornography in the state. Yet considerable law enforcement resources continue to be wasted on the socially-destructive war on those who prefer something milder and healthier than alcohol. Let's solve both problems with sensible new priorities.

We the people of Lamar County, as well as the world want a conviction of the killer in the Henry Crenshaw case. He was an innocent father of two children that was brutally murdered in his own home, on March 10, 2012.
