In order to promote a safe environment for ourselves and our children, the undersigned hereby petition the government of the United States of America to:
1. Reinstate the Federal assault weapons ban;
2. Establish a comprehensive buy-back program for all firearms;
3. Strictly regulate ammunition sales so they may be limited and traceable in amount and type;
4. Require comprehensive background checks for all gun purchases and transfers;
5. Require an ATF-approved safety certification for all gun owners; and
6. Establish a national database of all gun ownership.
