♥ Previously Established Actions still open now have 2 URLs in many cases . . .
♥ If there is only one URL on an action, it is the new one. . . .
♥ In cases where there are two URLs, the old one is listed first and the new one second. . . .
♥ It appears that a LOT of the new links are only DECEPTIVELY clickable --- but the only way these get you to where you want to go is to PASTE em into your browser addy box. (03/31/11)
♥ I THINK I have removed all non-working links/URLs and discontinued actions now???
♥ In general, actions are listed in descending order according to number of signatures on each as of 03/30/11.
♥ The Medical, State & Persecution Sections are rather dove-tailed so if you don't find what you're looking for in one list, check another.
.•*¨`*♥ Newly added actions below are signified by .•*¨`*♥
.•*¨`*♥ This is not a "comprehensive" list anymore, I have not included most of the petitions I was not able to comfortably sign.
.•*¨`*♥ "Newly added" does not mean it is new here on ch.o. It is no longer efficient (if even possible) to really determine the beginning or end-dates of petitions or pledges.

I think you will LIKE this!!!!! , `;~ > MPP's ✩ Potentially Deadly Alcohol and Marijuana Quiz ✩
These facts indicate that there is absolutely no sense in claiming that marijuana is prohibited for our protection. ...
I have found with my legislators that the more facts I send them on the benefits of Herb, the more they change their tune on the form letters they send in reply, however gradually.

http://www.change.org/petitions/martinez-please-sign-the-substance-abuse-and-crime-prevention-act
--- 03/25/11 --- PROGRESS: ♥ Both the NM Senate and House overwhelmingly passed the Substance Abuse and Crime Prevention Act, a bill that would provide for treatment instead of incarceration for certain non-violent drug offenders. ♥ ACLU Letter --- Tell Governor Martinez to sign the Substance Abuse and Crime Prevention Act so we can stop incarcerating non-violent drug offenders and give people who struggle with addiction the help that they need. ♥ Even if you do not live in NM, these State campaigns are very important. ♥ It has been noted that most changes happen first at the State Level which ultimately drives the Federal Level to follow suit (hasn't much choice)

SCHEDULING
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Schedule I Heroin, LSD, Marijuana, Peyote, Mescaline, Psilocybin
Schedule II Opium, Cocaine, Methamphetamine
Schedule III Amphetamine, Depressants, PCP
Schedule IV Various prescription drugs
Schedule V Other less dangerous prescription drugs and small amounts of certain drugs.
source: http://hr.uoregon.edu/policy/drug-alcohol-sanctions.html
This is how our country labels controlled substances.
from: Change Marijuana to a Schedule IV, V CONTROLLED substance
I don't agree with this petition tho I like it a lot --- except the main purpose --- because I think Marijuana is SAFER than the majority of (if not all) "prescription drugs".
This is why I closed my petition
http://criminaljustice.change.org/petitions/view/reclassify_marijuana_to_schedule_three . . .
(will be rewriting/reposting for Schedule V instead of III) . . .
Special thanks to whoever pointed out my misunderstanding.
