Many enjoy watching funny, harmless videos on YouTube. To have to endure even 4 seconds of the harsh and violent content of several recent NRA videos is disturbing. Even worse, children could be exposed to these "ads" over and over and over. It is unacceptable and irresponsible to disguise a call for violence and division as an "ad" and for YouTube to expose unsuspecting audiences to this violent propaganda.

We already saw millions of people lose their lives in the Great War, on the Eastern Front in World War II, in the Nazi Shoah, and in the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Let us not repeat history, especially for our most vulnerable allies in Korea and Japan.

After news broke that North Korea has expanded its nuclear capabilities, Donald Trump didn’t discreetly and seriously handle this impending threat with the Department of Homeland Security. Instead, he took to Twitter where he's threatening North Korea with military action and posting pictures of bomber planes. That’s right. Donald Trump publicly escalated an already dangerous conflict with a foreign adversary over a social media platform. How long will Twitter CEO, Jack Dorsey let Donald Trump get away with abusive and dangerous behavior that the average user would be banned for?

For the American people! So we can progress and live better than we are currently. Every six years, having a new fresh face representing our interests!

A free and open press is a constitutional guarantee that will be taken away from millions of people if this merger is allowed. I live in an area where 4 stations will be controlled by Sinclair, who is already requiring stations to be less independent and more controlled by running "required segments" with a particular political view.

On February 28, 2017, without due notice or due process, RadioAvenueRadio.World, previously broadcasting as KVRU Rainier Valley Radio, was forced out of their studio by South East Effective Development (S.E.E.D) where they had been broadcasting globally on KVRU.org. Attempts to resolve this breach of trust amicably and professionally have been rebuffed, ignored and denied. Additionally, S.E.E.D has not shared with the public that their FM license for 105.7 is in jeopardy.

The final public hearing on Revisions to Development Standards in the R1-A Districts will be at the planning commission Nov. 15th and soon headed to the Berkeley City Council. Planning staff and developers want to continue building two large luxury condos on one parcel that can include 2-story houses in the rear yard and 3-story houses in front yards, making housing less affordable for working families. Keep housing affordable: limit height on rear units to one story, limit height of front yard houses to two stories, increase required open space, and encourage backyard cottages and duplex buildings

To stop the use of toxic chemicals in the Town of Jaffrey, NH on town owned property where children and pets play, often right after pesticides are applied. Also to educate the public about the harmful side effects of such chemicals where as those side effects are either largely unknown or down played now and the warnings posted after application, though in line with current state regulations, are minimal and understated to effectively keep kids and pets off of treated lawns.

Under MSSI, inspectors would be required to monitor 83 pounds of pork per second and 1,300 hogs per hour. The Food Integrity Campaign represents whistleblowers in the food sector. Four federal meat inspectors came to us and submitted startling affidavits regarding the government’s high-speed slaughter pork pilot inspection program. One whistleblower said, "On numerous occasions I witnessed [company inspectors] fail to spot abscesses, lesions, fecal matter, and other defects that would render an animal unsafe or unwholesome." We are petitioning Donald Trump and the USDA to stop a new dangerous pork inspection rule that would expand the pilot program nationally.

ESPANOL ABAJO We ask the City of Everett to keep its people safe. We ask that the City pass an ordinance as part of its commitment to enforce the law and serve the public without consideration of immigration status. Under our proposed ordinance, no one in the City should be contacted, detained, or arrested by any Everett law enforcement agency based on immigration status, whether known or unknown. Only then will all residents feel safe going to the police and city agencies to report crimes, seek help, and collaborate together to keep Everett the city that it is. Many of us have lived here for decades and are proud to call the city home. Some of us are students -- and parents of students -- at Everett High School who are scared that we are going to be stopped by the police at the end of our school day and asked for papers. We have kids in our families who are waiting at home, anxious that us, their parents, might not come home that night. Everett has been ranked the most diverse city in Massachusetts. We don’t want half of the Everett community fearful of the very City and people who should be here to serve us. We all deserve to know that the City of Everett and the Everett Police do not stand with separating parents from their kids or stopping people in the streets because of their skin color and language. Everyone deserves to know that we, the residents and friends of the City of Everett, will not tolerate their persecution. * * * Le pedimos que la Ciudad de Everett mantenga seguridad para su gente. Al aprobar ordenanza, la ciudad de Everett se comprometería hacer cumplir la ley y servir al público sin tener en cuenta el estatus migratorio. Según a nuestra ordenanza propuesta, ninguna agencia de seguridad pública de Everett debe contactar, detener o arrestar a una persona basado en su estatus migratorio, ya sea conocido o desconocido. Sólo entonces todos los residentes se sientan seguros de acudir a la policía y las agencias municipales para reportar crímenes, buscar ayuda, y colaborar juntos para mantener Everett la ciudad que es. Muchos de nosotros hemos vivido aquí por décadas, y estamos orgullos decir que esta ciudad sea nuestro hogar. Algunos de nosotros somos estudiantes -- y padres de estudiantes - en Everett High School quienes temen que la policía nos vayan a detener y pedirles nuestros papeles. Tenemos los niños en la familia quienes están esperando ansiosamente en casa, pensando que sus padres -- nosotros -- no vuelvan por la noche. Everett ha sido clasificada como la ciudad más diversa en Massachusetts. Más del 40 por ciento de sus residentes son inmigrantes. No queremos que la mitad de la comunidad Everett tenga miedo de las mismas instituciones y personas que deberían estar aquí para servirnos. Todos debemos poder confiar que la ciudad de Everett y la Policía de Everett no apoyan la separación de los padres de sus hijos, o la detención de gente en las calles debido a su color de piel o su idioma. Tenemos derecho a saber que nosotros, los residentes y amigos de la Ciudad de Everett, no vamos a tolerar la persecución.

Will you join me, the Mayor of San Jose and 270 Cities in California in opposing SB 649? If you don’t want cell phone antennas right outside your bedroom window, take action now! SB 649 passed out of the House and was sent back to the Senate for a final vote on the amended version. Since SB 649 also passed out of the Senate, it will now go to Governor Brown for signing. Letters, emails and calls should pour into Governor Jerry Brown's Office within the next few days. We must act NOW to stop this attack on our rights, privacy and health! Most utility poles will become cell towers under Senate Bill 649 and result in 4g/5g antennas lining every block leaving the public with no legal recourse from “micro-wireless” to “small cells” and “macro towers.” The public has not agreed to cell towers in their front yard. Real estate values will significantly decline near base stations and antennas. While firefighter premises are exempt from antennas, the health risks for the rest of us, including animals and the ecosystem is being jeopardized with SB. 649. The FCC is streamlining 5G deployment before completing investigation on health effects. Safety limits have not been updated since the 1990s. Their guidelines were derived from industry, and there is no policing or compliance testing of cell towers. You also need to know that SB 649 shifts liability from the telecommunication industry to the State of California, with the potential of bankrupting the state and requiring bailout from the tax payers. The bill also would place antenna every five houses, leaving the public vulnerable to privacy and security risks. The bill "forgets" that industry still has not fulfilled a prior agreement to install a high speed fiber-optic network (already paid through our phone bills) to all including the underserved.

I'm a mother and a wife, a physician and a human being. The last thing we need right now is international conflict or war. I don't want a future with more deaths, more bombs, more threats, more tears, more needless suffering, more trauma. I've had enough. I'm determined, motivated, passionate, and still believe peace is the best option. I'm a proud American. This fear-generating war publicity is degrading our national values and makes NO ONE safer. Hell, I've got things to do (like laundry and bills and dishes). So, we need to stop escalating today. In the words of Sweet Brown, "Ain't nobody got time for that!" Enough humans have died from war and conflict. Aren't we tired of this yet? It's 2017 and I need a future for my family and children where we can: - peacefully resolve conflict - stop killing each other - stop reacting out of fear - fulfill our family and community goals, with security and peace Stop all the endless media stories promoting war and fear and conflict and drama and threats. Start spreading our own stories about peaceful resolutions and what we all want - to live our lives in security, not fear. "Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that." - Martin Luther King, Jr. "The only thing we have to fear is fear itself." - FDR #love #peace #resist #theresistance #nonuclear #nowar Please sign this petition and forward to your networks. Only unity and compassion can drive out fear.
