			<title>Give Segways A Chance</title>
			<link>http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/segwaysyes/</link>
			<pubDate>Tue, 16 Mar 2004 18:0:39 CST</pubDate>
			<description>The City Council is preparing to consider pending legislation in Bills  #98, 37, and 86, all dealing with banning the use of motorized scooters in New York City.  In its current form, the wording of these bills is sufficiently broad so as to effectively ban the uses of Segways as well.  

A Segway is decidedly not a motorized scooter, and has not to date, proven to be unsafe or dangerous.  The number of Segways in use at present in NYC is well under 100.  The importance of allowing Segway use is severalfold: to give this innovative, environmentally sound technology the opportunity to be properly tested and evaluated for use in an urban environment; to provide the mobility challenged with a new, user-friendly and failsafe technology; to identify all potential applications and positive effects of this alternative technology.  To ban use of the Segway would prevent this discovery.  

The Segway is defined as an EPAMD – a self-balancing, non-tandem two wheeled device, that can turn in place, designed to transport one person, with an electric propulsion system averaging less than 750 watts (1 horsepower), the maximum speed of which, when powered solely by a propulsion system on a paved level surface is less than 12.5 mile per hour.

We ask the City Council to amend the definition of a motorized scooter to exclude the Segway, and to change the exclusion for disabled use to read, &quot;for the purposes of this section, the term motorized scooter shall not include wheelchairs or other mobility aids used by person(s) with a mobility impairment as defined under the American&#39;s with Disabilities Act.”, reflecting wording which is more in keeping with standard reference to persons with disabilities.

We urge the City to work with the State Assembly to understand and to pass positive legislation for use of the Segway in New York State and City, and to provide hearings and commission reports on the Segway prior to any action restricting use.  Please give Segways a chance.

			<title>Rid the West Village of Transgender Prostitutes</title>
			<link>http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/Prostitution/</link>
			<pubDate>Tue, 3 Aug 2004 00:1:50 CDT</pubDate>
			<description>During the past three years there has been incredible developement in the Meat Packing District which borders the West Village.  As a result of this developement, the transgender prostitutes (that formerly slithered along the Westside Highway) have made Horatio Street, Little Hudson and West 13th their new stomping grounds.  Corporal Serevelli park (Which borders these streets and acts as a playground for Young Adult Institute for Retarded Citizens) is now infested with Transgender prostitutes that ply their trade openly from 9:00pm-7:00am.  Despite, several phone calls per day to the Sixth Precinct, NOTHING, is done.  If the cruisers even respond to the call, they drive right by.  They do not stop, they do not attempt to move them along, they certainly do not arrest them, hell they dont even turn their heads.  They drive BY!!!! Captain Fitzgerald and Sergeant Griffin have not made the efforts that are required to rid our neighborhood of this infestation.  Aside from the health hazards, ie.....defecating in the streets between cars, dirty condoms strewn about the playground, needles....our security is now being threatened by the element that these prostitutes draw in. Robbery&#39;s in our neighborhood have sky rocketed.  We are forced to replace our broken locks bi monthly and chase hookers and their Johns out of our vestibules and garden.  

Quality of Life STINKS in the sixth precinct and civilian complaints are being ignored flagrantly by those who could implement change.  

We want our neighborhood back and we will fight to get it.  There is a community board meeting on Monday, August 9 at 7:30pm at the New School.  This meeting will be attended by Mayor Bloomberg and Commissioner Ray Kelly.  We will present our petition and publically demand that they ARREST, CONVICT and REMOVE this scurge from our neighborhood.

Any assistance you can render will be greatly appreciated.  Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

			<pubDate>Thu, 19 Aug 2004 19:1:27 CDT</pubDate>
			<description>We as people of this planet have destroyed what little we have left in its entire. And soon there will be nothing left for us. So how can you help? It&#39;s simple.

1) Stop using unsafe hairsprays. We&#39;re breaking our ozone layer, which is causing global warming, which is causing floods and extreme heat.

2) Stop cutting down trees. Use cement, faux wood... RESIN! Just don&#39;t cut down the trees. They&#39;re our supply of oxygen, the habitat for animals, and the suppliers of tommorow&#39;s breakfast and the future&#39;s remedies.

3) Ban that fur coat you just bought in Paris last summer and buy some wool! You may think that they just shave the animal, but they have to have his hide for the coat, too. The poor thing is dead. And now you won&#39;t buy wool. Wool is just shaved off the sheep, and faux fur is just as warm and fashionable. So get out there and SHOP!!!

4) Get a bike. A decent pair of sneakers. A push-scooter (the kind that you push with your foot). Just ditch your car. You need the excercise. Everyone does. And you could save money on gas and payments. The most you&#39;d have to pay is about $300 if you want a fancy bike. But cars cause gas fumes to spread out and make us sick, not to mention kill our plants and animals.

So now you know how you can help. Just sign this petititon, and help alot.</description>

			<pubDate>Thu, 26 Aug 2004 07:1:37 CDT</pubDate>
			<description>http://www.workingpitbull.com/truthaboutpeta.htm
Please read this page! 
This email was sent to PETA:
<start>
I am against PETA and ALL it stands for. Letting show dogs out of their cage is right? Dogs are already domestic. All pets are all ready domestic. Everyone I meet that asks me about PETA I give them this link. PETA and to follow it! I would never donate nor join nor tell ANYone to. PETA is sick. Pit Bulls are amazing pets and they have bad reputation.! Ingrid got bit by one Pit Bull and now they are all bad? You say you are helping animals but your goal is to kill the domestic animals. What makes me sad is that you have a PETA Kid&#39;s?????? You would wreck most kid&#39;s lives my taking away pets. You come to pet fairs and you want no pets? Not the &quot;Fish in Tanks - No Thanks&quot;? You can&#39;t just let them swim into the ocean! Let Future Be Bright for Animals? Does this mean in heaven? Because this is opposite of what you really are. Oh and did you know most vegatarians and vegans get sick? There is vitamins they need in meats. They are not wild animals they are farm raised. If we killed none...they would be way to many animals in the world. I will do a petition and see how many people are against PETA and I WILL send it to you.
PROUD NON-SUPPORTER OF PETA

			<title>Ban Canned Hunting in the United States</title>
			<link>http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/cancanned-hunting/</link>
			<pubDate>Tue, 19 Oct 2004 01:1:55 CDT</pubDate>
			<description>canned hunt - a hunt for animals that have been raised on game ranches until they are mature enough to be killed for trophy collections

Sounds okay right? I mean people hunt all the time? What&#39;s the difference? A LOT!! What this definition failed to mention was that canned hunting isn&#39;t shooting deer and birds you see everyday. No, it&#39;s going to a &quot;ranch&quot; to hunt and kill exotic and endangered animals such as the Siberian Tiger. Yes, tigers! You can hunt down the poor creature or you can have it put in a small inclosure so it&#39;s easy prey. These animals are used to humans so they won&#39;t run away and some are ven trained to come and eat at the same spot everyday. Real convinient for us isn&#39;t it? Please sign this petiton to stop canned hunting. You&#39;ll get a email verifying that the email you put is valid. thank you for reading!</description>

			<title>Petition Objecting to Special Protection Order for Irish Hares</title>

			<pubDate>Wed, 17 Nov 2004 17:0:26 CST</pubDate>
			<description>We, the undersigned, wish to record formally our objection to the proposal by the Department of the Environment to make an Order prohibiting the killing, taking, selling or trading of Irish hares in Northern Ireland anytime from 19th January 2005 to 18th January 2006.

We believe that such an Order has no scientific basis, is detrimental to delivering concerted conservation action for Irish Hares, unfairly discriminates against responsible field sports and is based on personal prejudice.</description>

			<title>Save Indus Delta Eco-system</title>
			<link>http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/Indus/</link>
			<pubDate>Thu, 25 Nov 2004 20:0:54 CST</pubDate>
			<description>River Indus is no doubt one of the world&#39;s largest rivers. It serves to a wide range of Ecosystems, agriculture and human populations. It flows right through the length of Pakistan and passes through 3 provinces. 
     
      Due to huge consumption of most of water in the upper province Punjab by building several barrages and dams, the water has become scarce in the lower Province of Sindh. As a result the river is totally dry between Thatta and Sujawal and further till the delta. I m an eye witness to it.

This has caused sea water intrusion in the delta and has destroyed several thousand hectors of fertile land. moreover the Mangrove Ecosystem which was once considered as a very large forest, is now deteriorating at a high rate. This has not only caused a decline in fish population in the sea but also is a threat to other wildlife of the ecosystem. 
 
Blind Indus Dolphin, which is endemic specie, is critically endangered and is at the verge of extinction due to shortage of water. 

There has not been any flood in Sindh since the last 8 or 9 years, resulting in the deterioration of the riverine forest between the Leeves (Katcha area).

I strongly appeal to the Government of Pakistan and Government of Punjab to realize the seriousness of the matter and release a substantial amount of water in the river Indus so that to preserve these assets of international importance for our future generations. I also appeal to not to start the construction of the Kalabagh Dam as it would only worsen the situation and would mean death for all the above  mentioned, affected people and biodiversity.

			<title>The Drive of Death--thousands of dolphins are being slaughtered each year. HELP US SAVE THEM</title>
			<link>http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/savethedolphins/</link>
			<pubDate>Fri, 26 Nov 2004 05:0:24 CST</pubDate>
			<description>Thousands of dolphins are BRUTALLY killed every year in what are known as &#39;drive hunts&#39;.
Every year in Japan, between October and April and in the last two decades, about 400,000 dolphins have been slain in the hunts. That&#39;s 18,000 every year--and the hunts show no signs of stopping. If nothing is done about this problem, Japan&#39;s coastline will again run read with dolphin blood as hunters butcher thosands more of these special creatures.

On a drive hunt, boats full of fisherman make loud noises to disorientate the dolphins and herd pods of them into shallow bays. Once they&#39;re trapped, the fisherman climb into the water and move through the dolphins, stabbing them with spears and knives until they die from blood loss or horrific injuries such as a severed spinal chord. ALTERNATIVELY THEY MIGHT SPEAR THEM WITH HOOKS IN THEIR BLOW-HOLES AND DRAG THEM TOWARDS THE SHORE WHERE THEY DIE SLOWLY, THEIR HUGE WEIGHT CRUSHING THEIR INTERNAL ORGANS.

It&#39;s a gory death and experts estimate that the dolphins take at least several minutes to die.

-(statements from Sugar Magazine, issue November 2004, &quot;The Drive of Death&quot;)


I read this artical and I was shocked at how horribly these precious animals are treated and slaughtered. I never knew about the problems going on in Japan until now. Please help by signing this petition, and hopefully it will help put an end to this tragedy.</description>

			<title>Alaka Wolf Shoot</title>
			<link>http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/alwolfshoot/</link>
			<pubDate>Mon, 29 Nov 2004 02:0:12 CST</pubDate>
			<description>The unlawful wolf-killings that prompted the criminal charges imposed on one of three hunter-pilot teams permitted by the state to shoot wolves near McGrath is utterly predictable. Permit-holders may well view the shooting opportunity as open-ended, and go anywhere to kill wolves. It’s lucky that David Haeg and Tony Zellers were caught.

The Daily News-Miner’s editorial skips the facts about the McGrath wolf-control program. Originally, the McGrath area included 1,700 sq. miles. Wolf killers couldn’t find any wolves in this area despite Alaska’s Department of Fish & Game’s (ADF&G’s) assurances that the area contained too many wolves, so ADF&G expanded the control area to provide wolves to kill. This is really just a letter that everyone should sign. All the wolves are doing is eating their natural food. They don&#39;t deserve to be shot.

			<description>Hello!
 This page was created by an environmentally conscious 13 year old. It is meant to stop AOL’s wasteful practices, and stop this constant flow of junk mail from AOL.
  You’ve seen there “2000 hour free trial” disc everywhere, in grocery stores, Wal-Mart, and your mailbox. It’s elaborately packaged with dozens of pieces of paper inside of it.  AOL has killed millions of trees to advertising there poorly made, over priced product. 
   It’s tiresome to reach into your mailbox and pull out piles of junk mail. WE DON’T NEED YOUR SERVICE, AOL! We have cheaper or faster connections, and it’s not like you’re an obscure company. We know who you are. You don’t need to wrap your product in plastic, almunium, and every kind of non-renewable resource out there. You’re wasting oil, trees, coal, and other minerals to advertise a service NO ONE WANTS.
 There is an online petition found here: , which will prohibit these practices, for personal privacy the protection of the environment. I hope to collect enough money via the paypal button bellow, to go to Washington and speak before congress.

Donations are apperciated and needed.</description>

			<title>Legalize Rabbits in Queensland!</title>
			<link>http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/rabbitsinqld/</link>
			<pubDate>Fri, 24 Dec 2004 10:0:15 CST</pubDate>
			<description>It is unbelievable that the Queensland government has banned the keeping of rabbits as pets in Queensland. In all other states of Australia, their keeping is legal. 

What is the governments&#39; argument against keeping pet rabbits? 

Well, Queensland authorities seem to have adopted a hysterical view that if the keeping of pet rabbits is legalised, the State will be over-run by colonies of rabbits establishing themselves in the wild and becoming a threat to the environment. 

This is impossible if the rabbit is de-sexed, which should be compulsory, unless it is being kept for breeding purporses. Also, an escaped rabbit would barely last a day in the wild. Being raised in captivity, it wouldn&#39;t know how to fend for itself. 

I know from personal experience that domestic rabbits make fabulous pets. They make little noise, they do not kill native animals and birds, and they are by no means dangerous. I believe that the keeping of domestic rabbits in the state of Queensland, Australia should be made legal under the conditions that the rabbit is de-sexed so as to prevent unwanted breeding, and breeding should only be legal with a government-obtained permit. 

Rabbits make truly wonderful companions, and it is a shame that Queensland citizens cannot enjoy them as pets. Please sign this petition, and legalise the keeping of rabbits in Queensland! Thankyou.

			<title>Do Not Sell Our Public Waterfront for Private Housing</title>
			<link>http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/saveourwaterfront/</link>
			<pubDate>Sun, 26 Dec 2004 15:0:08 CST</pubDate>
			<description>The redevelopment of the lands along the hudson River is underway. At present, the model being used is intensive luxury housing instead of public recreation and open space. In many places, publicly owned land is being sold to private developers, forclosing the possibility of increased public access and the local economic benefits that would accrue from increased tourism.

We demand that no public waterfront land be sold for private use and that there be a moratorium on all proposals for private housing along the waterfront.</description>

			<title>This petition is TRASH.</title>
			<link>http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/trash/</link>
			<pubDate>Mon, 3 Jan 2005 00:0:14 CST</pubDate>
			<description>There was a creek near my home,
It once ran smoothly.
It had mallards, cranes, and squirrels,
But they&#39;re all history now.

note: I know, I must be REALLY bad at writing in general.

If you&#39;ve read my badly written lines carefully, you&#39;ll find out: Everything is (or should be) in past tense.

The creek dosen&#39;t run smoothly now, it&#39;s all clogged up by TRASH. No one can ever go there and hear the cries of birds and the chittering of the squirrels anymore, due to these reasons:

1) People kept fishing at the creek, the birds have to find food, so they go elsewhere. 

2) The creek &quot;poisoned&quot; the living creatures with TRASH.

Did I forget to mention that the air is toxic?

&quot;Who throws all that TRASH?!&quot; you might ask. I can only hope that the answer&#39;s not you. Don&#39;t throw TRASH on the ground.

About me: I&#39;m not really crazy about environmental stuff (I&#39;m vegetarian), but the creek is unbearable.

Please sign this petition if you agree/dissagree and why. I&#39;ll be checking back soon, thanks for reading.

			<title>Stop Horse Slaughter</title>
			<link>http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/stopslaughter/</link>
			<pubDate>Wed, 5 Jan 2005 01:0:08 CST</pubDate>
			<description>Horses are such beautiful and intelligent creatures. They carried our soliders threw battles and they carried our wounded to saftey. These animals become our best friends and we share a bond with them. We need to help these horses, wild and domesticated, because everyone deserves a second chance. Some of these horses have never been loved and have never had a real home, some have been abused and some are ex- race horses, some have had the best care in the world and others were treated like garbage. But that does not mean they need to be slaughtered. Americas horses only get slaughtered to feed someone in a forgein country a fancy meal. Slaughter is inhumane and disgusting and needs to be stopped. 

***Approximately 60,948 horses have died in slaughter houses during 2004***</description>
