There are individuals vietnamese american that not deserve to live in the free america
Peter supported: Stop online harassment in Vietnamese diasporaAs a Vietnamese American and a member of the United States military, I am deeply concerned by the derogatory and disrespectful rhetoric that has been directed toward Vietnamese refugees and members of the Vietnamese American community.
Many Vietnamese “boat people” endured persecution, imprisonment, dangerous sea journeys, separation from their families, and tremendous personal sacrifice in their search for freedom. Referring to these refugees in degrading terms, including comparing them to “dogs,” is offensive and dismissive of the suffering experienced by an entire generation of Vietnamese people.
I also strongly object to repeated sweeping and misleading portrayals of life in the United States. America is not a perfect country, and reasonable people may criticize its government, tax system, workplaces, or social conditions. Freedom of speech protects the right to express those opinions. However, criticism should be based on facts and expressed responsibly, particularly when addressing a large public audience. Personal dissatisfaction should not be presented as an accurate description of life for all Americans.
Likewise, anyone is free to express views about Vietnam or its political system, but promoting one political ideology does not justify insulting Vietnamese refugees or belittling the country that provided generations of Vietnamese families with an opportunity to rebuild their lives in freedom.
My military service has given me an especially strong appreciation for the freedoms that allow people in the United States to speak openly—even when others strongly disagree with them. With that freedom also comes personal responsibility and accountability for the way we treat other people.
I am signing this petition not to silence legitimate opinions or political discussion, but to call for basic respect, factual responsibility, and civility. I respectfully ask Ms. Tran to stop using degrading language toward Vietnamese refugees, to refrain from making misleading generalizations about Americans and life in the United States, and to engage with those who disagree with her in a respectful and constructive manner.
Respectfully,
Pitou Assisi
Pitou supported: Stop online harassment in Vietnamese diasporaOur schools are not safe enough to give up our phones.
ava supported: Amend Maryland's phone-free school policyAll this talk about how everyone was fine without phones in school before but not about how much the world has changed to the point where school without our phones is no longer a privilege we can afford taking.
Jayla supported: Amend Maryland's phone-free school policyI’ve been watching this for a while and it breaks my heart. I was never able to have children so seeing this is heartbreaking. I’d love to come in and scoop them up and take them home with me, but I know that’s not logical. I’ve watched this little boy be ignored and abused in so many different ways emotionally mentally physically all of it. The saddest part of all is that the people who are in charge of helping this little boy are not doing their jobs and they’re not protecting this little boy they’re not protecting him at all. They have so much evidence and I do not know what the problem is. We need to do better. We need to listen when somebody says something like they’re supposed to. See something say something they need to also listen to something and do something.
Erin supported: Pass C.A.M.S Law: Children Above Monetization & Social MediaI am in full support of Cam's Law especially after seeing the amount of child exploitation occurring all over social media. These children do not even understand the ramifications from having digital footprint that they gave zero permission to! The fact that these children will grow up and see their faces or life story all over the internet is so sad and it needs to be stopped! There is a 5 yr old in Florida being exploited all over the internet because of his mother and sadly her digital footprint is tied to his and he has no say so in the matter and it's all in the name of financial gain that is clearly not being put to use for his current needs such as a sensory room or even towards his future education and any future therapy he most certainly will need after seeing what his mom has put all over the internet. This also applies to many other children being exploited for financial gain at the expense of their future livelihood.
Becca supported: Pass C.A.M.S Law: Children Above Monetization & Social MediaPlenty of people I've known on Roblox have been groomed by pedophiles and Roblox has actively done nothing to stop them.
It hurts me in every way imaginable to see people on Roblox get hurt by dangerous predators that Roblox practically defends at this point, hell, one of the Roblox Discord's own MODERATORS was exposed for pedophilia 5 years ago from when I'm writing this.
We have to begin making a difference before it's too late.
Plarail supported: Matt Kaufman needs to resign as Roblox's Chief Safety Officer.As a victim of a Roblox predator myself, Roblox fails to take strict and proper action against dangerous predators on their site nor do they advocate for children's safety. Instead, they're targeting the vigilante groups who are taking action against predators for them since Roblox has been failing to do so, since as far back as 2017, when Roblox's moderation started taking the plunge, which has been worsening 10 times each year. I've been playing Roblox for 10+ years and this one of the most diabolical actions Roblox has ever made. Roblox is officially no longer safe for children to use at all anymore and not even boycotting nor contacting Roblox can get them to listen to their own community. Mr. Kaufman needs to resign since he is not doing his job at all and he's not doing anything his role stands for seriously; he is a threat to the safety of children and adults alike, and as well as disrespecting the victims of predators who are advocating for safety on the Roblox platform.
Whitney supported: Matt Kaufman needs to resign as Roblox's Chief Safety Officer.Back in 2015 I was a grooming victim by someone in their mid-20s. I was 9 at the time. Since then, Roblox has done nothing and the owner of the account who groomed me is still very active. I wish I had the support from Roblox when I was too afraid to tell my parents. These petitions are a significant step toward making the game safer for younger generations, helping to break the cycle of children becoming victims.
