Petition Tag - drowning
1. Pool safety & supervision - protect the innocent 
Our grandson has drowned due to lack of proper fencing and supervision. Please make 4 sided pool fencing mandatory & punish those who don't comply.
2. Emergency Request for a Child in Need
We, The Undersigned, wish to note a child’s right for parental presence during critical care. We kindly request an emergency release of federal inmate, Brandon Bauknecht from the Sandstone, Minnesota facility.
Two year old, Hayden Bauknecht excitedly attended a birthday party at the local aquatic center on March 15, 2009. Many heard his laughter and saw his innocent care-free life as he played. His childlike faith assured him that he would always remain safe. Yet, faith failed the naive child. The party came to a devastating halt when the toddler’s playful body was found motionless in the pool. Breathless and silent, he was transported to the pediatric intensive care unit in Marshfield, where he remains in critical condition.
3. Save Children from Insane Parents
Have you heard about the "Andrea Yates" case? This is the woman who killed her five children. She claimed insanity and facts were proven she was mentally ill when she did it.
For many years there were factors of doctors stating this but she still was allowed to keep her children and have more. What about "LaShuan Harris" She did the same as Andrea Yates by drowning her three children also. They both said their kids needed to be saved and go to God by drowning them. Where does that leave the kids? Yes, dead.
4. Abolish Wildlife Drowning Traps
Garden drowning traps for squirrels and other urban wildlife is on the increase. These traps are barbaric, unnecessary and a danger to rare species.
Using such traps gives excuse to the poorly-educated in wildlife instincts the right to kill such species in the name of garden preservation.
