The BANNING of Dark Pools by the SEC and Congress

The Issue

SEC Chairman Gary Gensler and Congress, Remember the oath you swore and start protecting Americans from market manipulation from within.  
In case you have forgotten the words you recited, you can read it below. 
TITLE 5 U.S. Code § 3331 - Oath of office

“I, (State your name), do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God.”

Every Individual, in the Civil Service (i.e. Senator, Congressman, SEC Commissioners, etc) or Military Officers must take this oath. I took this oath for the first time on Nov 1, 2011 and reaffirmed at each promotion. I have been fighting our Nation’s Foreign enemies for the last 25 years and 6 months and will quietly retire in 8 more months. However, as I plan my life around my family and our future, I am enraged and appalled to see the rampant destruction of this Nation by Domestic enemies and the lack of conviction by the officials, either elected or appointed, to protect the Constitution.
  The willingness to rationalize or marginalize the actions by corrupt Hedge Funds under the pretense of “maintaining Market Stability” is the cowards way of condoning the Hedge Funds actions. 

I am asking every American who believes in equality, not just in the Stock Market but in every aspect of America, to sign this petition and demand the immediate Ban of Dark Pool trading in order to restore the United States stock market to what it once was.
  We demand Congress and the SEC create transparency in the stock market and create real consequences for those who would break the law to line their coffers with the money stolen from hard working Americans.  Restore investor confidence.
