1. We NEED a FAIRER JUSTICE SYSTEM

In the UK, our justice system always seems to favour the offenders. By offenders we mean paedophiles, child abusers and domestic abusers and those who are charged with obsession of child 'porn'.

These abusers more often than not get lenient sentences with lots of support to get 'their' lives back on track when their victims get none. They also recieve luxuries in prison such as gyms, TV's etc with many finishing their low sentencing with a new i.d and a new life at the cost of tax payers money.

This is while their victims receive nothing and help is minimal, leaving them to cope with the aftermath of their abuse and the prejudice which accompanies it.

2. Validate "Extraterrestrialism" as An Authentic Religion

Extraterrestrialism is a belief by many that humanity evolved into what it is today through the aid of extra-terrestrials.

Extraterrestrialists believe in treating their neighbor the way they, themselves would like to be treated. They believe in an open mind and warm heart when coming in contact with other people or ideas that may or may not conflict with their own beliefs. They do not impose their religion on others, nor do they require church and organization goers to donate. One’s financial choices, time or resources given to the church or organizations will never be judged nor ridiculed.

Problem:
While growing in popularity amongst all types of people, Extraterrestrialism has remained a marginalized group. It is not given the same validity as other religions such as Christianity and Mormonism, which Extraterrestrialism originally stemmed from. It does not have rights to be recognized as a valid article on Wikipedia, when “Baller” is accepted as a legitimate term. Extraterrestrialists want others to know that they exist. They want to teach others in an unbiased manner of what they believe and show the world the ways in which they live spiritually.

Extraterrestrialists want to show that Extraterrestrialism is a valid religion because they believe in it and it’s their way of life.

3. Demand The Right To Carry

Another woman dead. Do we really value the life of our citizens?

http://canadacarry.org/forums/forumdisplay.php?60-Canadian-Homicides-and-Injurious-Assaults

Our right to keep and bear arms in our own or the country's defense comes from exactly the same place as the American one -- English Common Law, the English Bill of Rights 1689, the writings of Sir William Blackstone in his Commentaries on English Law, and others. All these laws (and indeed the full body of English Law), became part of Canadian law on our Confederation in 1867 with the affirmation of the British North America (BNA) Act.

5. Make biodegradable plastic bags mandatory

Plastic bags are a heavily consumed product of the non-renewable resource petroleum, when they break down they pollute the sea, the earth, the crops and the animals. Animals can think they are food and choke and die, or have them trapped in their digestive system. It is far from a painless death.

Plastic bags take many years to biodegrade, they are a danger to the health of humans and animals alike. Sign to keep the Canadian environment pristine, beautiful and safe for all life.

We need to get rid of these harmful plastic bags that fill up our precious landscape with landfills. It would make a very significant, positive difference to make biodegradable plastic bags mandatory.

6. Support Hospital Ship 支持醫療船

Japan is considered as an easternmost small island with limited resources. Yet, if the volume and the depth of the sea are considered, Japan ranks fourth in the world. With this favourite marine background, Organization of Mobile Hospital International (OMHI)was established as a fair and independent non-governmental organization. We aim primarily for constructing Japan-made hospital ships, which help contribute to world peace.

Our proposed hospital ship will deal with natural disasters such as the earthquake or an outbreak of epidemic (e.g. Bird Flu and new influenza.) As for international need and demands, hospital ship will provide worldwide humanitarian support in devastated areas, for example Indochina, Haiti and Chile, where quake and tsunami are in the offing. We will help to maintain the security and to improve the safety in conflict regions.

Nowadays, registered hospital ships come from 14 countries and 4 non-governmental organizations, but none of them belongs to Japan. There is no denying that hospital shipwill provide medical services, whereas world peace is a more important issue to deal with. Japan could make fairly contribution to the issue by utilizing her oceanographic technology.

We have started this project since a private workshop held in Tokyo in February 25, 2011. Influential people from various quarters participated in the workshop and exchanged their opinions actively. If you share our mission, we would like invite you be a part of us, constructing hospital shipto stabilize international maritime safety.

日本素來被視為一個的資源小國,國土面積排名僅列全球第61。然而,倘若把專屬經濟區及領海面積計算在內,日本則排名第六(總面積共4.47百萬平方米),海洋深度及海水量全球排名第四,水域優良,海事條件也相當優厚。具備優良海事條件,國際移動醫療中心是一個公平獨立的非政府組織,旨在在日本建造醫療船,為世界和平出一分力。

1995年1月17日阪神大地震後,日本學術會議上已經提到建造醫療船的緊急性。關東東北太平洋沿岸的海嘯一瞬間吞噬超過兩萬名居民,加上嚴重的核災,我們是需要醫療船的。 我們籌劃的醫療船將足以處理地震及疫症(例如禽流感或其他新型流感)爆發等自然災難。醫療船也會因應國際需要,為世界各地受災地區提供服務,包括東南亞、海地及智利等受到地震及海嘯影響的地方,會保障並促進當地的安全性。

目前,全球共有14個國家及4個非政府組織註冊醫療船,可惜尚未有來自日本的申請。一般而言,醫療船由軍隊主理,以確保其流動性和運作系統足以提供自給自足、即時及長遠的醫療服務,包括隔離及疏散等。而我們的團隊也會備有各種流動醫院設備,目標是將醫療船駛向世界各地提供緊急醫療服務。在非緊急時期,會有各種活動如醫療培訓、醫療教育和推動和平的活動等。我們以不影響現存醫療系統為原則,為環保、和平及人道救援工作作出貢獻。

2011年2月25日,我們開始這項計劃。參與計劃的人士均是來自不同界別的重要人物,並熱心地交流意見。如果閣下支持我們的理念,我們誠邀你一同為維持世界和平略盡綿力,參與這項意義重大的醫療船建設計劃!

11. Stop Animal Euthanization

It has been reported that 350 animals, cats and dogs, have been infected with ringworm. According to studies, ringworm is curable. There are many methods to cure ringworm, but may take a several months.

According to the Canadian Press Article
(http://news.ca.msn.com/canada/cp-article.aspx?cp-documentid=24206729) , OSPCA has decided that euthanization is the best solution because it will take several months to cure ringworm and have no time nor money for this treatment. It has been discovered that the outbreak was caused by human error. Protocols for identifying ringworm in the animals were not followed.

OSPCA should find an alternative, for example, raising money for treatment and taking time to treat the animals oppose to terminating them. There are many alternatives, they should find the best one. An animal should not loose their life because of a human error- it was not their fault, it was human error.

The practice of slavery has plagued the human species for over 5,000 years. Yet here in the 21st century, slavery is more prevalent than ever before with an estimated 27 million people enslaved worldwide.

Even in the U.S slavery continues today. The U.S government estimates 14000-18000 people are trafficked into the U.S annually and put into some form of modern day slavery.

14. End Abortion, Overturn Roe vs Wade

Murder is morally and legally wrong. An unborn child should be afforded the same rights we all enjoy. The Bible warns against harming any child.

The word "abortion" is just a synonym to soften the impact of the word "murder" which is exactly what it is. Abortion equals forcefully killing an innocent child.

"With food prices rising, Haiti's poorest can't afford even a daily plate of rice, and some take desperate measures to fill their bellies."

18. Stop Abuse of Children - Eliminate Parental Alienation

Richard A. Gardner, M.D. introduced the term parental alienation syndrome and pioneered its study. In his efforts to assist people who were interested in learning about parental alienation syndrome and educating courts about PAS and its acceptance in the scientific community, and in response to misrepresentations that work on PAS had not been published in scientific journals, Dr. Gardner maintained on his Web site a list of references on parental alienation syndrome, a list of legal citations, a list of professional conferences on parental alienation syndrome, and a list of lectures that Dr. Gardner had been invited to deliver on parental alienation syndrome.

In May 2003 Dr. Gardner passed away. Since then a few of us throughout the world has stepped up to the plate to keep the truth out there. People that believe this is a form of abuse of human rights of the child. That children should not be caught up in adult conflict and have the right to both of their parents without interference by the other.

19. 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.

20. Decriminalization of the Use and Possession of Marijuana in the State of Maryland

This petition's goal is to show the voice of the people of the state of Maryland. By today's common knowledge, there is outstanding proof that Marijuana has been for many years misunderstood and people were uneducated and forced into believing that it was extremely harmful.

Most of these forced ideas were backed by our government. Which has made people believe even to this day that marijuana not just harms but even kills. Yet there are 0 documented deaths caused by the plant. By common knowledge half a million U.S. citizens die from Tobacco, no record of a death or even proof of the cause of cancer from marijuana. 71 people are killed each day in alcohol related accidents in the U.S. compared to the 0 from marijuana. I long for a safer place for me, my family, my friends, and even my children and their children and so on.

With the Decriminalization of Marijuana in the state of Maryland we could do our part to cut down on the mass amounts of deaths each year from alcohol and tobacco, save and put mass amounts of money spent on the "War on Drugs" to good use such as schooling, health care, etc. and save the mass amounts of people who don't deserve to be in jail the right they are being declined to live a normal life, see their husbands, wives, children and other family, and allow them to be FREE.

Do your part, make our state a safer and better place to live in.

22. Ban abortion - Save a Life

Ever since abortion has been legal (also known as termination) it has been popular. countries have adapted to this trend and sadly, alot of people do it. The cost for an abortion is $AUS600.

Here are some facts: It was estimated at 89 521 in 1993–94 in Australia. of course, the numbers would be bigger in US and Britian. Before 2000, 60 949 happened in Australia. If a girl under 18 is pregnaunt, the doctors may pressure to have an abortion and so does parents and friends.

The definition of MURDER is the unlawful premeditated killing of one human being by another, and manslaughter is the crime of killing a human being without malice aforethought, or otherwise in circumstances not amounting to murder.

Abortion seems to be legal because because a baby is only human when it is born. so do you have to see it to be human?

23. Protect our coral reefs!

Please sign this. This petition is asking for greater federal protection, by law, of coral reefs.

Coral reefs are a vital part of the marine ecosystem and due to boats, global warming, pollution, and other causes, coral reefs are starting to die off. There is only one coral reef in all of America! I am lucky enough to observe this ecosystem [and not do damage to it] and i want my children and my grandchildren to be able to do the same instead of looking in books and at movies of what used to be a beautiful thing.

Also, if the coral reef is harmed then it hurts things as small as a clown fish to things as large as a blue whale. I hope you will sign this petition asking for greater coral reef protection.

I may only be 13 years old but it doesn't matter. I am a citizen who is passionate about this subject and this is what is right.

25. Save A Father and His Daughter!!!

Each person has the right to a nationality, to belong to a land, a people, a country, a flag.

What to do when you lose your identification, you find yourself in a different country in which humans are minor to animals, the government does not help you get its nationality, and your own country denies your existence?!

What to do when you have been fighting all your life for the right of existence, the right to travel, to go back to your own country, and never got a helping hand...?

A man and his daughter are fighting for their RIGHT FOR FREEDOM, to be resettled in any western civilized state, they have been judged to be "de facto" stateless by the UNHCR, states have rejected them for not being "refugees", and now they are in a dangerous country where civil war can break loose at any moment, without papers, without security, without anything, stranded, with no one to help them get out of there.

Are papers more important than Human Life?

We, the people of this earth, can make a difference. Let our voices be heard, WE EXIST, we can change things.

Please help us find a STATE who will take these two educated, civilized persons, and help them have a LIFE.

Help us give them a chance at a decent life.

Help us give them back their freedom.

SIGN THIS PETITION TO PROVE TO THE UNHCR AND ALL THE GOVERNMENTS THAT HUMAN LIFE IS WHAT REALLY COUNTS.

SIGN THIS PETITION TO ALLOW THESE PERSONS TO LIVE, DECENTLY, AFTER ALL HIS STRUGGLE FOR OVER 30 YEARS.

SIGN THIS PETITION TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN THIS CRUEL WORLD.

26. Support Bill C-484

A petition came up recently that was made to oppose The "Unborn Victims of Crime Act". If the bill dose not pass, unborn children will have no protection from acts of hate and violence. Some of them may even die before given the chance to experience life. Some take life for granted. Just think. Imagine all the fun things you have done, all the good times you had. Now imagine if they never had happened.

Just because some people commit violence against a baby who can't defend itself, it doesn't get to live like we all have. It wants to live, but it will never be able to hike, play sports, or have friends. All because their mother committed violence. If the bill passes, everyone will get the gift of life. Only sick, sick people would take the right to life away, and these sick people are known as the "Pro-Choice" movement. They think because of greed and laziness, the gift of life should be able to be taken away, just like that. They want to STOP the protection of babes; they want to steel the gift of life.

We must let life be for all to enjoy. We MUST get the bill passed.

29. Insurance Regulatory Developement Authority (IRDA) Protection Inadequate

Undoubtedly, Insurance is a matter of solicitation.

In this 70 percent illiterate country, it is by necessity entirely verbal.

Even for the other 30 percent, it still is verbal.

Spoken Word is the ultimate Indian promise by lore, over riding all other modes.

All insurance contracts hence rely in the trust and faith of full and fair verbal disclosure of all the features of the policy.

This enormous onus is completely on the vested shoulders and integrity of an agent/ advisor/ webpage.

State protected Insurance Industry, was opened to, private players.
The huge, 1600 billion rupees potential market, must have been the pivotal reason.

The gullible, insulated, policy holder, literate or otherwise, was unprepared, for these multinational sharks.
Furthermore, 2 centuries of, pampering British, has permanently altered our psyches to implicitly TRUST, the rulers, white and brown.

The Insurance Regulatory and Development authority(IRDA) was setup by the parliament, in 1999. The mandate: protect the policy holders & regulate the companies.

Eight years later, IRDA and the policy holders at the industry‘s mercy should have enough experiences in the quality and quantum of this “protection" in reality.

Max New York life, for example,

a) Fail to reveal uncomfortable swing factors like, periodic hike in premium for the riders, the actual cash surrender value, etc, at Proposal.

b) A SHYLOCKIAN, 70 percent penalty of the fully paid up premium, excluding the first year’s premium, any dues to the company , and all the investment benefits reaped from you is subsequently levied, even if you choose to leave this “satisfied family partnership’ for breach of faith and trust.

c) The form is unsigned-intentionally? - by the sole company representative you may ever get to meet, the agent-Advisor.

The educated are specifically, penalized transferring the entire burden, of comprehension, compliance and consequences, to this sole signature (only YOURS) for this potentially 43 years unilateral bondage.

d) Confusing, confounding, 24 pages of American jargon masks this bondage. “The premiums under this –‘10 year term’- rider are guaranteed for 5 years”.
This, you are to comprehend is their IRDA carte blanche for increases which you are never told about.

e) Even the ‘Free look provision’ is pricey @ SHYLOCKIAN SEVENTY?

f) Many of these ‘tailored’ opportunities are mysteriously discontinued
How did IRDA approve these grossly exploitative, anti consumer clauses?
(http://www.irdaindia.org/lifeproducts/maxnewyork031007.htm )

Tata AIG and Spice Jet on the other hand, are jointly seducing domestic air traveler netizens with policies promising ‘100 percent flight costs, for trip cancellation, delay, interruption etc’ exploiting the Indian traveler’s nightmares.
http://www.spicejet.com/tata_aig_productdescription.asp
The morning after you discover, these policies are like surgical gowns covering nothing vital.

Not even the airline’s failure to fulfill the obligation for its own operational reasons.

What is irrevocably damaged, is the TATA WORD & IMAGE, for Just under Rs. 400!

30. Call for alteration of the United States flag

It has flown grandly in triumph and been raised defiantly in the face of defeat.
For centuries it has instilled in schoolchildren their first sense of something
larger than themselves, and it has accompanied countless men and women to
their final resting place.

In American life, it is the closest thing we have to a holy symbol. And it needs to
be changed as soon as possible.

Respect for the United States abroad stands at an all-time low. Once revered as
a bastion of freedom and self-expression, America is increasingly viewed abroad
as a ruthless bully, imposing its will on others not through persuasive ideas but
superior firepower.

Nor is this discontent confined to foreign shores; in recent polls, over 70% of
the American people stated that they believed their country to be headed in the
wrong direction. The collective perspective is calling for positive change. For the
sake of this nation, a new beginning is desperately needed. What better way to
symbolize a new course of action than to alter the very embodiment of that country: the American flag?

We propose changing two of the banner’s white stripes to balanced stripes of
yellow. This is not merely a cosmetic switch. Yellow has powerful connotations
that represent the ideals to which the United States wish to rededicate itself:
wisdom, intelligence, optimism, joy, energy and creativity. To some the idea of
altering the flag’s appearance borders on the heretical. But why is this? The fact
is that the Star-Spangled Banner has worn many faces since it was first
introduced in 1776. The map is not the territory: it is not the cloth or the
design that is sacred but the principles for which they stand.

By adding a new color to the flag, we are announcing to the world that we are
serious about moving in a healthy and sustainable direction. The yellow stripes
will represent a host of new ideas. America is a nation forged from diversity, yet
only two of the primary colors are present in its standard. With the addition of
yellow, all colors of the rainbow will be manifested.

Yellow and blue together create green, which could represent America’s new
commitment to the world environment. The yellow also symbolizes an honoring
of America’s Indigenous population. Our Native brothers and sisters are of
Earth-honoring traditions whose wisdom and knowledge have been tragically
ignored for far too long.

Adding yellow on behalf of America’s Native family would serve to heal the
ancestral wound and balance life perspective as we seek to thrive in peace and
oneness. We also propose that a professional class of environmental stewards be
created, composed primarily of American Indians, whose unemployment levels
are presently catastrophic. Such a step will move the color change beyond the
realm of symbolism and into meaningful real-world change.

The yellow of the rising sun announces the dawn of a new day. The yellow
stripes of a new American flag will similarly make an announcement: that we
are sincere about ushering in an era of respect, determination and reverence as
we address the many and serious problems that know no borders but affect the
entire planet.
