Resignation of Fish and Game President Daniel Richards
Purpose of This Petition: To request immediate resignation or force the prompt removal of Daniel Richards as the President of the California Fish and Game Commission. Being in a position of public trust, Richards abandoned that trust when he hunted and killed a mountain lion in Idaho for the perverse sport of it.

Make paintball an Olympic sport!
Paintball, in its various forms, is a high-speed, high-adrenaline sport, which demands both physical fitness and mental dexterity. With thousands of devoted players worldwide, convincing the IOC to give paintball a place at the Olympic games would give paintball well-deserved recognition as a competitive athletic activity, and grow the profile of a sport which so many of us love. Please share this with your local field, team, or club, and help me make Olympic paintball a reality!

Wattpad Mature Writers
I have put this petition together for all of us who are mature writers on Wattpad. I know that there have been other petitions, but Wattpad still hasn't made any changes. When I contacted them they said they were looking into makingchanges. But I, and many others feel that looking into and actually making changes are two very different things!We love to use Wattpad, and for many of us it's not just about the writing, it's about making friends as well. So we don'twant to use any other site, but w

Nei til utbygging av Nedre Otta! - No to damming the Otta river!
I hereby oppose the plans of damming one of the last major rivers of Norway, making it the biggest norwegian hydro electrical project in modern times. Jeg sier herved nei til utbyggingsplanene for en av Norges største elver, det største vannkraftprosjektet i norsk, moderne tid. To oppose the damming of the Otta river is not just a local issue: It is an international claim. Å gå i mot en utbygging er ikke bare et lokalt initiativ: Det er et internasjonalt krav. This petition is meant to remind t

Do Not Cancel The Finder
This petition is to gather support for the TV series of The Finder. This show is literally one of the best shows i've ever seen. I believe that many of others out there feel the same way too. Therefore, with this petition, i hope that they will once again put The Finder in production as this is an entirely different show from others. It has its own unique story. This show is underrated. Please, if you would lend me your support, we can try to let them understand that The Finder IS A GREAT SHOW!

Stop transportation of donkeys from Bonaire to Haiti
The government of Bonaire wants to capture all 200 stray donkeys that roam the island and send them to Haiti to be used as working animals. I completely agree that the stray donkeys must be rescued from the streets. Donkey Sanctuary Bonaire has already been trying to get this done for many years. But because they do not get any financial support from the government they did not succeeded to do so until now. However, I do not agree with the governmental plan to send the captured donkeys to Ha
