SAVE ALTO WILD HORSES

Petition by Jennifer Webb
Alto, New Mexico

We love our Wild Horses. They are a part of the tourist attraction of our small community. People from all around the country come to New Mexico Mountains to see wildlife including our Wild Horses.

We watch these herds grow from foal to stallion or mare. We help keep them safe from roads by creating places off the main road they can eat and by placing warning signs where we cannot.

We stop and enjoy their presence as they stop for breakfast at sunrise or napping in the evening sun. These animals are a beloved part of our culture and we don’t wan’t them shipped away, auctioned and/or slaughtered. We want them to remain in our area.

If there is a need for population control, certainly we can come up with a better solution that involves the people of this community who love these horses instead of auction and slaughter.

We are respectfully and formally requesting that you look into this matter and help us find a better solution.

The death penalty for minors? Change.org

Petition Pakistan to end the death penalty as an available punishment for minors

The death penalty is an immoral and illogical form of punishment for capital crimes. It is incredibly costly, does not deter capital crimes from being committed, has killed innocent people wrongly convicted of crimes, and often puts to death those with mental illnesses and those who have experienced (or are experiencing) horrific traumas.

Pakistan, like other countries, still uses the death penalty as a punishment for capital crimes. But what’s even worse is that the Pakistani government allows children who commit capital crimes to be executed.

Children deserve to be loved, nurtured, and given opportunities to make mistakes so that they can grow. Executing them when they have not fully developed their moral compass is abominable.

Stand with me and Amnesty International. Together, we can pressure the Pakistani government to stop this incredible injustice.
