Leonard Peltier is innocent. He committed no crimes whatsoever! The FBI know this. He should be released immediately!
Carolfrances Likins
Why is it that government crimes against the people don't get investigated by the government? Is it because it doesn't want to find itself guilty? Actually, though, acknowledging past crimes is a way of saying it's better than it used to be.
Ron Canning
Free Leonard!
Lieve Vanderhoven
Free mister Peltier please.

Cointelpro is now the patriot act!

It´s really the time for all USA and all people to learn from the inhumane faults of our predecessors of the centuries before and to correct these faults by acting in a human, democratic non-racist way. Read the Doctrine of Discovery and view the documentary video by Steven T. Newcomb on the Doctrine of Discovery, it is horrid and it is jolting. These actions continue enen through today in many forms and specifically in this case with the accusations against an innocent man Leonard Peltier. Please investigate this, do not keep your heads in the sand. You will see with much clarity that he should be freed. FREE LEONARD PELTIER. Thank you fo your honest review and investigation on all this.

FREE LEONARD PELTIER!

So all you government officials who kept Leonard Peltier in prison all these years are perfectly fine that when one of your family is killed an innocent man can be imprisoned and the real murderer go free?
Sue Clayton
It's time that investigations were made into the events that really happened on the Pine Ridge Reservation in the 1970's. Leonard Peltier has been sitting in prison for almost 40 years because of lies, bribes and threats by the FBI in 1976. An objective inquiry into the events at that time, MUST be carried out ASAP in the name of Justice and Humanity.
Delores Omeara
We have a right to know what happened and so do the families affected by this.
Joy Streck
If you read the book "Through Indian Eyes" published by Readers Digest, you will understand the continued injustice of the Native American Indians even in modern times.
Paul Owenson
Justice and Freedom immediately for Leonard Peltier.
Irene Prieve
We as a nation should face our problems as well as triumphs

The government of the United States of America must render account for its past immoral actions, if it wishes to retain its moral credibility in the present.
Linda Cullen
Leonard Peltier is an innocent man. He is a gentle and humane person. It is far past the time he should be freed. His incarceration is a travesty. Give this gentle man some peace and justice.
Robin Schnell
With a congress so enthusiastic about investigating government wrongs, why has this not been looked at? Sacred cow?
Sandy Strehlou
Peltier's case is a demonstration of judicial injustice. Holding up this convictions only serves to erode the people's faith in a just legal system.
James Crotto
Leonard Peltier's case is a demonstration of judicial injustice.
Free the Political Prisoner now. Make it right.
J Stufflebeam
It seems to me that "political prisoners" are the victims of society or power guilt. Look at
Don Siegelman. Release on humanitarian grounds.
Christopher Kehoe

This 40-year-old injustice must be immediately reversed and Leonard Peltier exonerated and released!
Mitchel Eisenstein
Free him for the 60 million native americans
Eric Mills
The Canadian government, which now is governed by the same party that extradited Pelletier, should officially request clemency.
Patricia Vicenti
This man must be freed!
Wendy Moore
If not that justice was not effectively served during his trial, then release Leonard for current medical (compassionate) reasons. Enough is enough.

I am astounded by & embarassed because of Leonard's continued imprisonment!

I'm a single african american mother
I have never committed any crime and I been a target of 24/7 surveillance .The harass and mob and threaten me.This is a everyday thing for them.I have to make a report with FBI and US JUSTICE department to keep a paper trail.The local police denied me a incident report so I could not report the extremist group the doing the surveillance on me or the activity.

As a veteran (USMC) I'm adding my name and voice to this petition. Give Leonard Peltier clemency and release him. I pray for every person who has knowingly concealed the lies and contributed to this injustice. Let him go .....

He is innocent!!

Free Leonard Peltier. Make prison a need to be there place for protection for individual and society. Make real effort to end mass incarceration with the first step by giving clemency to Mr. Peltier. Even IF he did do something...the theory of diminished return is taking place with society now owing Mr. Peltier. A living death sentence (aka life) is not fair or justified punishment, and is an exceptionally low standard for any civilized society.
Peltier has done more than his time. Enough already. Let this man go home now!
Give us something to respect.
Please and thank you.
kathi miller
I got my petitions mixed up so will say here... that freeing Peltier will help heal as much as anything will, for the people of pine ridge and this country. Time to start doing things right. In regards to right action, the need is a demand to listen to what the different bands of first nations people want, and help them get that, is paramount. Period. If a band wants a serious investigation into anything, it has to be done without petitions to get it done. Honor the requests of the people, especially the first people here who had/have the skills to keep this land so pristine and in the same condition as given to them, that it made colonists think they discovered this work of creator for the first time... and look what that has accomplished.
Yes I support an investigation for truth, or we will never learn. #freeLeonardPeltier
heather sherrick
Please release Leonard Peltier he is NOT GUILTY even your own people agree.....He has paid more than enough it is NOT justice to have him in prison ......
David Cooley
Justice denied is not justice. This would indicate Mr. Peltier should either be given a new trial where all evidence is free to be given or he should be offered freedom. A "free people" should not be afraid to look at and admit mistakes.

I think it's an incredible shame what happened to Leonard Peltier and a black mark against this country and its justice system. I don't even see how it was possible. If so much evidence stacks up in his favor and it has been proven that he's innocent--why is he still in jail??? He should be freed as soon as possible.

In Germany - and in many other countries of Europe - we always thougt, that "America" is a country - or maybe THE country of freedom.
The way the helpless Europeans who arrived at the coasts of this continent and were helped by the grandhearted inhabitants whom - after they had installed themselves comfortably - reacted against their savours, is disgracing and a shame.
Think of all the injustices that you did to the people who only defended their territory, think of all the dead you "created", women, children, babies and the helpless husbands of these people and then you will understand the helplessness of the people who lived there for centurioes, maybe thousands of years before the gold-seeking race arrived.
It's clear that all the "Americans" wear weapons like mad - maybe the gods will come and take revenge for all the murders that happened in this former happy continent?

I was at Wounded Knee toward the end of the conflict. The Lakotas, and the reason AIM went to the reservation was because of the extreme poverty the tribe was living under. Today, the tribe has more money and are not fighting for food stamps, housing, heat, etc., just basic needs.

Leonard was Convicted in a court that isn't visible in the "u.s. corporation" operated out of the city of london. This country is of the Native Americans, a sovereign nation. We need to take it back.
Kangaroo Court:
A mock court in which the principles of law and justice are disregarded and perverted characterized by irresponsible, unauthorized, irregular status and procedures. Judgement and punishment given outside of righteous legal procedure.

Someone needs to help, he has been imprisoned so long for a crime that he didnt commit along with several others. My husband is in Yankton SD for a crime he didnt commit. Which the judge decided he did even though there was supporting hard evidence that my husband didn't. Someone needs to stop this cycle and we need to have rights to be able to deal with these things without going back to a biased judge or law entity.

It is long overdue for Leonard Peltier to be released from prison. He has served more than his share of time in prison. He must be given an opportunity to be reunited with family, friends and supporters. I hope that the United States Congress will hold congressional hearings to determine why Mr. Peltier and others were sent to prison. The people have a right to know why the government illegally encroached on their land. Thank you.

With the Global "Shelter in Place" due to the Coronavirus, and subsequent releases of 1000's of federal, state, and local inmates, why has Leonard Peltier not been released????? He has served 44 years for a crime the government covered up and continues to perpetuate. He should be released. After all California governor Gavin Newsom commuted several prison sentences for inmates that committed far more serious than the 2 Peltier was convicted (wrongly) of.

This heinous act of injustice and blatant discrimination against someone wanting to end the genocide of his people. This government is disgusting enough
Merri Bright
Leonard Peltier has been in prison for 44 years for a crime he says he didn’t commit.
His trial was riddled with misconduct that would never hold up in a U.S. court today. Prosecutors hid key evidence. The FBI threatened and coerced witnesses into lying. A juror admitted she was biased against Peltier’s race on the second day of the trial, but was allowed to stay on anyway.
There was never proof that he murdered two FBI agents during that 1975 shoot-out on Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota. But the FBI needed someone to take the fall. The agency had just lost two agents, and Peltier’s co-defendants were acquitted based on self-defense. This was happening as the FBI was fueling tensions on the reservation as part of a covert campaign to suppress the activities of the American Indian Movement, or AIM, a grassroots group of activists focused on drawing attention to federal treaty rights violations, discrimination and police brutality targeting Native Americans.
ADVERTISEMENT
Peltier, an AIM member, was there that day. So based entirely on testimony from people who had been threatened and intimidated by the FBI, and operating within a 1970s-era criminal justice system tilted in favor of the U.S. government and against Indigenous rights activists like Peltier, the U.S. Attorney’s Office successfully charged him with murder.
By all appearances, the FBI wants Peltier to die in prison while serving two life sentences.
But Peltier is still alive, now 77 and ailing in a Florida penitentiary. He is perhaps America’s longest-serving political prisoner, a holdover from a different era of justice. Here in 2021, his story still moves hundreds of thousands of people to sign petitions in support of his release. An astounding mix of human rights leaders have urged his release over the years, including Pope Francis, the Dalai Lama, Mother Teresa, Nelson Mandela and Coretta Scott King. Prominent artists including Willie Nelson, Bonnie Raitt, Jackson Browne and Rage Aga

It is a dishonorable travesty that Leonard was convicted in the first place, and even more so he is continued to be confined. All the hard, real, true evidence is before you that his trial and the actions of the FBI were composed of fabrications, coercion, intimidation, lies, political machinations and outright racism. The FBI was and still is on a vendetta. They say the FBI 'always gets their man'. Well if that means by any underhanded, disgraceful, dishonest, conniving, manipulative ways, then I suppose they got their man. Free Leonard now and restore justice to the Native Indigenous population here in this country. Take this small action as a step towards apologizing for the horrid history of the US government towards American Indians, to begin the long road of reparation and restoration of Indigenous sovereign rights. Have enough courage to make the step, regardless of your political career. Free Leonard Peltier now.

The former U.S. Attorney James Reynolds, who was a federal prosecutor for the District of South Dakota and was involved in Peltier’s prosecution, wrote to Biden in 2021 advocating for Peltier’s release. This is Reynolds reading a portion of that letter in a recent video produced by Preston Randolph.
JAMES REYNOLDS: President Joe Biden, I write today from a position rare for a former prosecutor, to beseech you to commute the sentence of a man who I helped to put behind bars. Leonard Peltier’s conviction and continued incarceration is a testament in a time and system of justice that no longer has a place in our society. We were not able to prove that Mr. Peltier personally committed any offense on the reservation. As a result to Mr. Peltier’s conviction, now arrest, is that he was guilty of a murder simply because he was present on the reservation that day. He has served time for more than 46 years on the hands of minimal evidence, a result I strongly doubt would be upheld in any court today. I believe that a grant of executive clemency would serve the best interest of justice and the best interest of our country.

Leonard Peltier is innocent. He committed no crimes whatsoever! The FBI know this. He should be released immediately!

So all you government officials who kept Leonard Peltier in prison all these years are perfectly fine that when one of your family is killed an innocent man can be imprisoned and the real murderer go free?
It's time that investigations were made into the events that really happened on the Pine Ridge Reservation in the 1970's. Leonard Peltier has been sitting in prison for almost 40 years because of lies, bribes and threats by the FBI in 1976. An objective inquiry into the events at that time, MUST be carried out ASAP in the name of Justice and Humanity.
We have a right to know what happened and so do the families affected by this.
If you read the book "Through Indian Eyes" published by Readers Digest, you will understand the continued injustice of the Native American Indians even in modern times.
Justice and Freedom immediately for Leonard Peltier.
We as a nation should face our problems as well as triumphs
lenard is a true warrior he stood up for his people he fought for there rights!! You have stolen his life cause why your scared?! Free him show us that Native lives matter!! We aren't just something you throw away!! We will always stand strong no matter what you throw against us! We all are brothers and sisters each & everyone one of us it's time to come together and let them hear our voices
Please send me any other petitions to sign in regards to Peltier or any other falsely accused inmate
It's time to free Leonard Peltier!!!
The government of the United States of America must render account for its past immoral actions, if it wishes to retain its moral credibility in the present.
Leonard Peltier is an innocent man. He is a gentle and humane person. It is far past the time he should be freed. His incarceration is a travesty. Give this gentle man some peace and justice.
With a congress so enthusiastic about investigating government wrongs, why has this not been looked at? Sacred cow?
Peltier's case is a demonstration of judicial injustice. Holding up this convictions only serves to erode the people's faith in a just legal system.
Leonard Peltier's case is a demonstration of judicial injustice. Free the Political Prisoner now. Make it right.
It seems to me that "political prisoners" are the victims of society or power guilt. Look at Don Siegelman. Release on humanitarian grounds.
It's time.
This 40-year-old injustice must be immediately reversed and Leonard Peltier exonerated and released!
Free him for the 60 million native americans
The Canadian government, which now is governed by the same party that extradited Pelletier, should officially request clemency.
This man must be freed!
If not that justice was not effectively served during his trial, then release Leonard for current medical (compassionate) reasons. Enough is enough.
I am astounded by & embarassed because of Leonard's continued imprisonment! Please have hearings & free this man
No offence to anyone. This man has done his time.
Please release Leo
I've been following this case for a long time am feel such shame for the justice system for keeping Mr. Peltier in jail, even from the beginning.
It is more than time to resolve this long-standing issue. It was a tragedy and travesty to both parties.
I'm a single african american mother I have never committed any crime and I been a target of 24/7 surveillance .The harass and mob and threaten me.This is a everyday thing for them.I have to make a report with FBI and US JUSTICE department to keep a paper trail.The local police denied me a incident report so I could not report the extremist group the doing the surveillance on me or the activity.
As a veteran (USMC) I'm adding my name and voice to this petition. Give Leonard Peltier clemency and release him. I pray for every person who has knowingly concealed the lies and contributed to this injustice. Let him go .....
Been waiting too many years for this.
He is innocent!!
Free Leonard Peltier. Make prison a need to be there place for protection for individual and society. Make real effort to end mass incarceration with the first step by giving clemency to Mr. Peltier. Even IF he did do something...the theory of diminished return is taking place with society now owing Mr. Peltier. A living death sentence (aka life) is not fair or justified punishment, and is an exceptionally low standard for any civilized society. Peltier has done more than his time. Enough already. Let this man go home now! Give us something to respect. Please and thank you.
I got my petitions mixed up so will say here... that freeing Peltier will help heal as much as anything will, for the people of pine ridge and this country. Time to start doing things right. In regards to right action, the need is a demand to listen to what the different bands of first nations people want, and help them get that, is paramount. Period. If a band wants a serious investigation into anything, it has to be done without petitions to get it done. Honor the requests of the people, especially the first people here who had/have the skills to keep this land so pristine and in the same condition as given to them, that it made colonists think they discovered this work of creator for the first time... and look what that has accomplished. Yes I support an investigation for truth, or we will never learn. #freeLeonardPeltier
Please release Leonard Peltier he is NOT GUILTY even your own people agree.....He has paid more than enough it is NOT justice to have him in prison ......
Justice denied is not justice. This would indicate Mr. Peltier should either be given a new trial where all evidence is free to be given or he should be offered freedom. A "free people" should not be afraid to look at and admit mistakes.
Free Peltier
Please show compassion and grace.
Please look into this.
This is an opportunity to simply do the right thing - and expose the truth that has been obscured for way too long. Free Peltier Now.
free leonard peltier grant clemency Mr president

FREE PELTIER
I hope and pray that they`ll release from the prison as soon as possible, before it`ll be to late one day!!!!
The arrest and incarceraton of Mr. Peltier has been due to gross misconduct of the federal authorities and other related entities. This should have never been a case that had been deemed guilty as proven beyond any reasonable doubt. Leonard Peltier needs to be Released and sent home to his Family!
It's the right thing to do.
Justice delayed is Injustice
I fully support this long overdue investigation in the name of justice, human rights & Indigenous Rights. There needs to be transparency to have a hope of "Truth & Reconciliation".
Please defend freedom and investigate Cointelpro.
Thank you for your work.
Leave the american indian alone
I fully support this long overdue investigation in the name of justice, human rights, & Indigenous Rights. There needs to be transparency.
FREE LEONARD
It's time for justice to prevail.
It's about time. Mr peltier was framed because he was a strong leader for social justice
Time is ticking!
He helped the people, we have to help him.
Free Leonard Peltier
His continued imprisonment is, by now, a shameful blot on our so-called equal justice system. He is really a political prisoner. Free Leonard now.
Free Leonard!
Freedom for Leonard Peltier!!!
Leonard is innocent. He is in Prison for nothing and that is against the law. He should have freedom according to the Constution.
This MADNESS has to STOP. FREE Peltier NOW THIS VERY MOMENT.
40 years is enough. Free Leonard Peltier.
Kangaroo Courts have to go! Natives and Patriots silence by a tyrannical Government!
The FBI has been corrupt ever since its inception.
It is time now to make justice for Leonard Peltier.
Please free Leonard Peltier. 41 years of injustice and inhumanity is incomprehensible. Do the right thing and set him free.
#FreeLeonardPeltier
#freeLeonardPeltier
Free Leonard Peltier from political imprisonment. The ballistics report evidences he is not the shooter, Leonard Peltier is innocent.
Pray for freedom
all people deserve a fair and unbiased trial with equal representation and within a reasonable amount of time and in any case, if in fact we are a Christian based nation, then shall we not forgive as we would wish to be forgiven?
He needs to be free
Free Leonard now!!
8/1/17 It is time to release Peltier for time served. Simply grant parole. redbirdband.bravehost.com
I want to do something for Leonard Peltier to help him..write to him..to prayer
This has gone on way too long -- both the injustice suffered by Leonard Peltier and our mistreatment of our Native brothers and sisters. Disgraceful.
por favor liberen a Leonard, hace poco supe de el y me conmovio profundamente. Almas tan nobles como el, están en extincion
"Beyond reasonable doubt" is a legal right. End the doubt before its too late.
Please investigate. This has drug on too long.
Why, the président of United States, don't whant free, leonard Peltier.
Leonard is my hero -- for standing up for all Native people and exposing all the crimes the U.S. government has committed to keep him illegally in jail for over 30 years.
The rule of law must be followed, no exceptions. If justice is not applied to one, then it applies to none.
what do human rights stand for...? stand they for ketchup,bublegum or cocacola..is the american dream like a horror video
Of course he should be freed. On humanitarian reasons sure, but more so because he is innocent.
it's long over due
Free Leonard Peltier....Free!
Might not be the right time with the deplorable president we have but....
I cannot believe this man is still in prison.
Leonard Peltier's continued imprisonment is a travesty of American justice.
Free the man!
Please, don't let Leonard Peltier die in prison!
we stand with leonard
Boo joo. I hope one day soon you will breathe the air of freedom my brother! Anishinabe, Cree in Oregon.
Free Leonard now!
He has suffered enough. Set him free not to die in prison. Please President Trump right a wrong.
Now is the time to finally do what is right. Release him to be with his family,
this is so unjust!
Free Leonard
Reopen this case! Especially since Prosecuting Attorney, Lynn Crooks, said to Judge Heaney. “Your honor, we do not know who killed those agents. Further, we don’t know what participation if any, Mr. Peltier had in it”.
Please release Leonard Peltier from prisoners.
Free Leonard, let him enjoy his remaining years with his family.
The conviction of Leonard Peltier was a glaring miscarriage of justice. Let him spend his last years in peace with his family. Support a turn toward justice in our failing court system. The world will be a better place when the truth tellers are free.
A long standing injustice....
Having read Matthiessen's "In The Spirit Of Crazy Horse" when it was first published, I have long been a supporter of Mr Peltier, and have a hard time accepting that it has been 43 years since the injustice against him was perpetrated by the wasichu's. Free Leonard now, so that he has the opportunity to be with his family before it is too late.
I support you Leonard. My heart is your heart.
.
End this injustice NOW!!
Please show humanity and release this man. His imprisonment over so many years is unjust on so many levels. I support his cause requesting his case be revisited and allow him time with his family in freedom before it is too late.
Come clean!!!
This sounds very dodgy. So many years for a crime they admit they don't even know if he was involved. What kind of justice is that?
Compassionate release now.
Free Leonard now
to assure me that you care enough to read these comments please call 250-309-4077. thank you very much. and please add a box for provinces.
Free Leonard peltier
RISE AGIANE BROTHERS
I think it's an incredible shame what happened to Leonard Peltier and a black mark against this country and its justice system. I don't even see how it was possible. If so much evidence stacks up in his favor and it has been proven that he's innocent--why is he still in jail??? He should be freed as soon as possible.
This injustice needs to be fixed.
Truth is owned by no one. Truth is-- no matter what. There is no fear of Truth--unless one is warping and distorting.
Leonard Peltier has served his unwarranted time and then some. Please, in the name of humanity and fairness release this aging man.
I think the Len Peltier was framed and should be released from prison.
It is way past time for this man to go free
FREE PELTIER!! He never should have been jailed to start with‼️Only reason he was is case was moved out of state & evidence manufactured!!
Let this First Nation fella go free!
In Germany - and in many other countries of Europe - we always thougt, that "America" is a country - or maybe THE country of freedom. The way the helpless Europeans who arrived at the coasts of this continent and were helped by the grandhearted inhabitants whom - after they had installed themselves comfortably - reacted against their savours, is disgracing and a shame. Think of all the injustices that you did to the people who only defended their territory, think of all the dead you "created", women, children, babies and the helpless husbands of these people and then you will understand the helplessness of the people who lived there for centurioes, maybe thousands of years before the gold-seeking race arrived. It's clear that all the "Americans" wear weapons like mad - maybe the gods will come and take revenge for all the murders that happened in this former happy continent?
Free this man now
The evidence is overwhelming that Leonard was railroaded in a time when the FBI ran wild on the reservations.
It's time
The time has come. He has served time and beyond for his experience with Federal Government. You took what you wanted. You got his life and made an example. He is now an older man. Set him free to spend his days in peace. Do not let fear cloud your judgement.
Set this Innocent man Free. Lenard Peltler. Let him live out his last days in peace!
How many more days does one person have to be patient, tolerant and quite while waiting for you to open your eyes and see ..... you have taken all you wanted and more, let Lenard Peltier be with his family and loved ones as he experiences the last of his days.
Free Leonard Peltier. Let him go home to be with his family. He's done more time than he should. FREE PELTIER !!!!!!!!
The shame is on this country and the FBI. We as americans live on what was once Indian land that was taken without compensation and our government engaged in the systematic destruction of a proud people who were good stewards of the land. For them to fight this oppression is understandable. They have suffered like the Jews under the Nazis. Free this man!
Shameful that he is still in there, will be even moreso if he is forced to die in prison. Free Lenoard Peltier.
Maheo. Has a plan for all. The greatest of leaders are endured to still lead there people no matter what the cost. Respect
The trial was a farce. Now it´s time for freedom for Mr. Leonard Peltier and to learn the truth! In the name of humanity and kind regards from East Germany, Ekbert
this man has suffered enough. set him free to try to enjoy what remains of the life wrongfully taken from him.
The time has come. He has served time and beyond for his experience with Federal Government. You took what you wanted. You got his life and made an example. He is now an older man. Set him free to spend his days in peace with his family. What are you scared of?
Leonard, with his many worsening medical conditions, must be released to spend time with his family. He is certainly no danger to the USA or any of its agencies.
This man has been locked up to long for crimes he did not commit. Free Leonard Peltier!!!!!!
... free him now!!! ...
This gentleman should be home with his family and tribe. He must never die in jail. Life has been so unfair to him and he deserves his freedom NOW. He did nothing wrong.
About long past time.
May Mr. Leonard Peltier seek Justice and be Blessed. May your sacrifice not be in vein.What an incredible Spirit. Thank you.
Per direct in vrijheid stelling, waarna fanancieele, en al het gemiste vergoed behoort te worden.
LEONARD IS NOT GUILTY!!!
'WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL!
Free Leonard Peltier!
I believe this unjust!
Free Leonard! get him out,a beautiful man! and innocent,JUSTICE!
No one is safe from injustice until every innocent man walks free.
The clock is ticking. Release Leonard NOW. Regards from UK
Enough is enough! He should have never been put in prison. Facts are facts.
No more political prisoners wrongly imprisoned!
prove freedom really exists. stop destroying this man's life and his culture. thank you
Mr. Peltier, a political prisoner, should have been released long time ago.
He's not guilty. Free all americans indians. It's their land. Shame on you usa
Let my people go!
Let him be Free, enough is enough!
Do what is right, even when no one else will.
Mr. Peltier is nothing more than a political prisoner, and innocent of all charges implimented and paid for by the fbi and the federal government.
Free Leonard Peltier NOW
Show compassion and release this innocent man he is already 75. ty

Free Leonard Peltier.
Been following and when I was nine years old I have met AIM in NM during a support in Shiprock Fairchild.
He's been in Jail for a long time. don't you think it's about time to let him out? free this man
The President needs to use the new policy he just signed into law a few weeks back to reduce or commute extraordinary unfair long sentencing. The Justice Department needs to look at this case and remove our Great Brother from Lenard Peltier form the Prison System. It is just the right thing to do !!!!
Release Leonard Peltier immediately and unconditionally
heyoka yelo
I have been angry and frustrated about unfair treatment of our Native relatives. I am more than proud to add my name to this petition! I pray they respond.
Depuis mon enfance, je sais combien les indiens d’Amérique ont souffert & je demande justice pour tous les peuples oppressés.
Hold on to the arc of justice. Blessed are the poor in Spirit

20
its injustice free elder, the people call for justice......i pray i live to see the day ,such a beautiful spirit is released and rejoiced with the people.free this man...all my relations....FLOSoultruth
“Free Leonard Peltier”
Free Leonard immediately
I was at Wounded Knee toward the end of the conflict. The Lakotas, and the reason AIM went to the reservation was because of the extreme poverty the tribe was living under. Today, the tribe has more money and are not fighting for food stamps, housing, heat, etc., just basic needs.
If the strangle-hold of the FBI will not allow Leonard Peltier's release, he should at least be allowed proper medical care, and to be closer to his family. What a venal, inhumane, fascist regime we live under. FREE LEONARD PELTIER!
Leonard was Convicted in a court that isn't visible in the "u.s. corporation" operated out of the city of london. This country is of the Native Americans, a sovereign nation. We need to take it back. Kangaroo Court: A mock court in which the principles of law and justice are disregarded and perverted characterized by irresponsible, unauthorized, irregular status and procedures. Judgement and punishment given outside of righteous legal procedure. Free Leonard Peltier immediately you country thieves-terrorists! You are not only invalid but criminally insane. I order you to deport from their country right NOW!
It is a crime in itself to have an innocent man likeLeonard in prison so long. This is very unjust
Aujourd'hui on se soucie du climat alors qu'on a massacré et emprisonné le peuple qui savait le mieux vivre en harmonie avec la nature. Je suis atérrée de prendre connaissance du sort de Leonard Peltier aujourd'hui.
Hello my name is Lorie Ovalle. I am asking to not allow this injustice to continue no longer. Im asking to please release Leanord Peltier. Lets bring down the injustice & corruption by starting with Mr . Peltiers release. Sincerely, Lorie Ovalle.
Justice Must be Served, one way or another! Free Leonard!
Someone needs to help, he has been imprisoned so long for a crime that he didnt commit along with several others. My husband is in Yankton SD for a crime he didnt commit. Which the judge decided he did even though there was supporting hard evidence that my husband didn't. Someone needs to stop this cycle and we need to have rights to be able to deal with these things without going back to a biased judge or law entity.
this case is very saddening and a complete display of disrespect and racism twords native American if this man is not helped we all can pretty much bank on being doomed
I followed his case since the 80's, on a visit to San Francisco. Saddened to know he is still in prison. This can't be just.
Everybody needs to get on the bandwagon and sign this petition
The disregard for the truth, a system where the principles of law, justice and democracy are ignored is shameful. The attitude that "someone has to pay" is criminal, in itself. An innocent man must be imprisoned and ignored. It is an act of cowardice, ill-will and bigotry, RELEASE LEONARD PELTIER! Show some justice!
FREE LEONARD PELTIER! The incarnation is invalid and unlawful
We need truth and we need reconciliation.
GET WOKE EARTH
Free Leonard Peltier, the world's oldest political prisoner.
It’s time for natives to unite and we need a leader!!!!
Please release Léonard Peltier, a old, sick man. He needs to find his family to live in freedom.
¡Libertad a todos los presos políticos !
Free Leonard Peltier! Enough is enough.
It's unfair for him to be locked up for so long.
Free Leonard Peltier!
Free Leonard Peltier!!!
Freedom
Free Leonard Peltier!
Many well-known supporters have called for clemency of Leonard Peltier; including one of the original top prosecutors, the Dali Lama, Robert Redford, Danny Glover, Buffy Sainte-Marie, et.al. Support this long overdue justice and let this leader and American Indian icon go home to his people.
we must put an end to this long injustice
Viva La Raza!
This issue being addressed is long overdue
Wish him the best.
age is private
Way, way overdue for release
The time is now to finally take responsibility as a country of rectifying the injustice our court system has perpetrated. Free Leonard Peltier and let him finally return home.
The time is long over due. show some humanity. let Leonard Peltier spend his last years in freedom with his family
Show some humanity and respect, finally, for Native Americans, the first people of this country. What about this ethnic group that has been forgotten, overlooked, original homeland seized and forced onto reservations?? He deserves an opportunity to at least breathe air in a different, healthier environment. How much more time served and rehabilitation does he have to demonstrate??
I pray a Devine forgiveness I ask the flying one's To seek Leonard's heart a rest assured That by commencement a Devine justice Be handed as magnanimity of past injustices has been healed. Great council awaits my brother. Havasupai flag stand's with you. Hokahey wastello
This so long overdue as to be ridiculous. This was and is a grave injustice.
un peu d'humanité liberez Leonard Peltier, qu'il passe ses dernieres années dans sa famille.
This man must get a new trial or be freed

Free Leonard Peltier

Leonard Peltier has more than served his time for this unjust sentence. His spirit is free it's time to free his body and let him return home!
To all you Democrats that alienated the people's causes, this caused blue states to turn to the republican demagogue. Remember that.
To all you Democrats that alienated the people's causes, this caused blue states to turn to the republican demagogue. Remember that.

Release this man Mr. President!
I was born the year he was put away on trumped up charges, and thats just wrong, heck Trump is pardoning actual criminals over there, and an innocent man sits in Jail for most of his life.
It's time, justice needs to be done.
Please end this tragedy of Pine Ridge and set Leonard Free.
Please free Leonard Peltier. Please.
I have always supported Leonard's release. I am a cripple, but I do what I can to support the fight to improve living conditions, respect the law and regain the land plundered by the US government by indigenous peoples of the Americas. We all are with You forver!!Hanna Nowak

Dental Concerns and Ceremonial Rights. Possibly Transfer To A Lower Maximum Federal Security Prison. Petition The U..S. Political Green Party.
Exposure to corona virus during imprisonment is cruel and unusual punishment in violation of the 8th amendment to the US Constitution.
It is long overdue for Leonard Peltier to be released from prison. He has served more than his share of time in prison. He must be given an opportunity to be reunited with family, friends and supporters. I hope that the United States Congress will hold congressional hearings to determine why Mr. Peltier and others were sent to prison. The people have a right to know why the government illegally encroached on their land. Thank you.
With the Global "Shelter in Place" due to the Coronavirus, and subsequent releases of 1000's of federal, state, and local inmates, why has Leonard Peltier not been released????? He has served 44 years for a crime the government covered up and continues to perpetuate. He should be released. After all California governor Gavin Newsom commuted several prison sentences for inmates that committed far more serious than the 2 Peltier was convicted (wrongly) of.
Free Leonard Peltier. He did absolutely nothing wrong. Free him! Got land? Thank an Indian. Leonard was protecting his family and his land. He did no harm. I read the book by his former wife titled Lakota Woman by Mary Crow Dog. "If we must die, we die defending our rights." -Sitting Bull.
Time to release Leonard Peltier as the other two defendants were acquitted; let's release him please.
this is my new address, isolating. I'm a long-time Peltier supporter, previous name Carolyn Brittell. My song is on the CD In the Spirit of Crazy Horse.
Government of the People, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the face of this earth. President Lincoln would be ashamed.
Peace to Our Ancestors! Free Leonard Peltier!! It's time!
Having worked as an EMT I have seen enough trauma that I am pretty desensitized to holding my lunch. Reading the transcripts made me sick! Mr. Peltier deserves to be free, largely due to today's modern evidentiary laws! At the very least this whole trial needs to be retried in New Mexico, WHEREBY HE IS BEING JUDGED BY A JURY OF HIS PEERS!
I have been a part of the L.P.S.G. from the early 90's. What happened with A.I.M. and all indigenous people in the 70's is now happening to everyone. Your RIGHTS are being stripped away with the Patriot Act and the Corana virus implementations. STAND UP and let us take our FREEDOM back and right the wrongs of all injustices.
This was yet another sham placed on our native people by our corrupt government set him free and start a real investigation.
Leonard should have been freed ages ago!!!
No one wants live in jell for all of his life, when he talk with his heart.
Free Leonard Peltier! No justice! No Peace!
Liberty
I do not understand why Leonard Peltier was convicted...I feel he was not given a fair trial and he should be freed...since this has happened back in the 70's I have felt this was an injustice. Please free him.
It is wrong for an innocent person to be in jail.
this is ridiculous, free him now
You are not forgotten mate.One day the sun will shine i know, Im sorry its taken 20 yrs to reach out but if you ever get this just know you have not been forgotten.I hope and pray that justice if it exists anymore finds you soon.Your friend Adrian
This innocent man can not lose another day of his life to the corrupt prison system in the United States.
Leonard received an unfair trial in which exculpatory evidence was withheld by the FBI.
Free political prisoners
Free this innocent man
The Government does not want to recognize their mistakes, or treachery. They must be forced to. Free Leonard Peltier now.
Standing Strong with Oyate !
Free Peltier!!
Free Leonard Peltier, he needs to go home and be with his family
free Leonard Peltier and ALL political prisoners held inside U.S. prisons and jails Now! Joining hundreds of young (some first time) activists and organizers to get Leonard free!
Free Leonard Peltier!
Leonard was wrongfully convicted. The true criminals are the FBI agents who repeatedly terrorize the Native peoples and covered up evidence that Leonard did not kill the 2 agents. FREE LEONARD.
Free Leonard Peltier!
Victim of corrupt govt.
Free this innocent man now.
Free Peltier. La Riva - Peltier 2020
It's been too long, free Leonard

Right This Wrong
It's time to set this man free already
Free Leonard Peltier! Disclose all the FOIA docs!
It's been too long. Let him not die in jail! Please.... We have all learned so much since then. The quality of mercy is not strained. It blesseth he that gives and and he that takes.....
Do the right thing and set an innocent man free! Indian lives matter!
Mr. Peltier has spent enough time imprisoned, set him free so he can taste the JUSTICE of the system and enjoy the rest of his time on earth with his family.
Schedule hearings on "CoinTelPro" and release Leonard Peltier for time served.
The case against Leonard is clearly flawed. If our country truly believes in justice, Leonard's case needs to be reviewed with the facts that have since been revealed.
44 years too many! SET HIM FREE!!!
People and Planet NOT Profit and Prison
FREE LEONARD PELTIER
It is past time to set Leonard Peltier free.
Inspired and case hilighted by Mr Jeremy Davies (Actor)
Free the people.
MANY PEOPLE ARE IMPRISONED AND ARE NOT GUITY.
the bullets dont match the gun
Free Leonard Peltier!
Free Leonard Now!
It’s time for justice✊
This is a singular opportunity to right a wrong that has been ignored by previous administrations. Leonard Peltier has been imprisoned for over half his life and has spent that time fighting to improve the lives of his people, just like you have tried to improve the lives of the American people. Leonard Peltier has already served more time than some murderers, drug lords and gang members. Please don't let him die in prison.
What's taking so long?? Free Leonard Peltier!
Are we human beings?
Do the right thing and free Leonard Peltier!
It’s far past time to correct this miscarriage of justice.
honor the treaties you wrote
The bullets don't match the gun. Leonard did not get an honest trial. The FBI was completely corrupt. Free Leonard Peltier and give him a full pardon.
No One is comforted by sending an innocent man to prison. This act of inhumanity remains a permanent dirty stain on the FBI and the judges condemning Leonard Peltier. WE see your lies. I hope these people become haunted by their deception. I hope Leonard is free as the hero his people see him to be immediately.
He has been in prison FAR too long!!!

The evidence just isn't there, and never was, proving that Leonard was guilty. Justice must prevail.
It's 2021, Why is Leonard Peltier Still In Prison? Now is the Time! ajo!
He is old and ill, for the love of God release him now!
How can he still be in prison when there is ZERO evidence against him? This is an outrage - release this innocent human being now!
Il faut liberer Leonard Peltier. Sa vie est avec les siens. Pas en prison.
Free Leonard
It's 44 years overdue that Leonard should be released from prison.
Peltier is a political prisoner held by the United States on behalf of large corporations who care about nothing but pillaging lands for profits. He was set-up and this is a disgusting injustice. Free Peltier now!
Enough of the government injustice and tyranny.
Please.
WAY PAST DUE!!!!
This is not justice. Make things right.
Ridiculous he is still in jail. Not enough evidence. Over the US government doing what they want to our Native Americans. Morally wrong in all ways
At the very least, LP deserves a new trial !
This injustice Must end......Free Leonard Peltier
for the United States to continue to imprison the innocent shows the outright violation of human rights, shows that laws do not apply to them, shows that regardless of innocence America is willing to put its ego above a mans life. America has continued to fight against the people who's ancestral land has been slaughtered for profit. Leonard Peltier is a symbol of endurance and strength and he should be able to once again walk on this earth as a free man. America has continued to fail its people. His Freedom is his right.
Free Leonard Peltier!
Proof of this mans innocence is right in front of you
It's been much too long. It is time to let him out so he can die at home.
He should have been freed long ago.
Wrongly accused - time to free him from prison
Numerous Constitutional Rights have been violated in this case. Falsifying evidence should have been more than enough to throw this case out. That the FBI refuses still to produce FOIA requests speaks strongly as to lack of evidence Again.
lets agree the fbi continues the same activities because of their unchecked powers and the intransigence of the insecurity state. Free Leoard Peltier!
Leonard is a political prisoner. Our people need him back. FREE LEONARD PELTIER
Please give clemency ASAP. This has been going on too long!
Free Leonard Peltier! Love Light Peace Freedom
An abomination that never should have happened.
When the prosecutor himself says it was bogus, what reason can a decent person have for not freeing this man?
Enoug h is enough. Justice for Leonard.
I have, and will, continue to support freeing Leonard Peltier!
Time to free Leonard from prison.
Free Leonard Now!
Please fre Leonard Peltier!
Please FREE Peltier! He is wrongly imprisoned and seriously ill.
Free Leonard Peltier, it's an abomination that has been going on for so long.

Justice for Leonard peltier!
We need to begin to make reparations to all the ways we committed genocide against Indigenous Peoples of this land. Investigate! Free Leonard!
FREE LEONARD PELTIER. the FBI IS GUILTY OF STEALING AND ENDING LIVES.
This man deserves his freedom after unjustly being imprisoned. We all know the truth about the FBI and their shameful legacy of brutal subjugation of tribal people. It is 2021. Let Mr. Peltier be reunited with family & friends and be able to walk the land of his people while he still has the ability. Right the wrongs of our past. This is a small gesture of kindness to a man whose life the government tried to take. This needs to end. FREEDOM FOR LEONARD PELTIER, NOW! 2021 IS A TIME TO RIGHT THIS WRONG!
It is insane how this country continues to incarcerate innocent people. Leonard Peltier should never have gone to prison!
Free Leonard Peltier
This has gone on far to long let the man out!!!
Leonard's incarceration is a half century tragedy and those responsible for his wrongful conviction need to be held accountable
LET HIM OUT!!
45 years. For 45 years an innocent man has been imprisoned in this so-called "justice system". Please no longer.
It is long past time to address this injustice.
Free Leonard Peltier NOW!
THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS AND LEONARD PELTIER MUST BE RELEASED RIGHT NOW!!!
I followed the whole story for decades now, doing a double cd celebrating the struggle of the Natives from Alcatraz and Wounded Knee up to now,
Please free Leonard Peltier. I petition to the United States Congress, President Joe Biden, and the Almighty Creator to release Mr. Peltier from injustice and tyranny and false imprisonment.
Clemency for Leonard Peltier now!
We are not free until we are all free. Release Leonard Peltier.
Leonard Peltier never received due process, that the U.S. government has not acknowledged this or released him speaks to the continuing brutalities in Indian Country. A singular modern method for subjugating this continents original inhabitants, aside from physical/cultural genocide, crushing rates of poverty, mental illness and substance abuse. Abandon this project of empire and release this innocent man.
He is innocent. Free him
Leonard Peltier did not receive a fair trial. Free Leonard Peltier NOW!
Let Leonard go home!
The activities of the FB8 durIng this period need examinatin as civil-rights violations likely occurred.
Compassionate Release! Let Leonard Go!
End this incarceration NOW! It has been far to long!
This expresses my feelings exactly!
He deserves a fair hearing and trial.
Lenoard should be free!
Free Leonard and investigate the reign of terror of the FBI
This heinous act of injustice and blatant discrimination against someone wanting to end the genocide of his people. This government is disgusting enough
Leonard Peltier has been in prison for 44 years for a crime he says he didn’t commit. His trial was riddled with misconduct that would never hold up in a U.S. court today. Prosecutors hid key evidence. The FBI threatened and coerced witnesses into lying. A juror admitted she was biased against Peltier’s race on the second day of the trial, but was allowed to stay on anyway. There was never proof that he murdered two FBI agents during that 1975 shoot-out on Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota. But the FBI needed someone to take the fall. The agency had just lost two agents, and Peltier’s co-defendants were acquitted based on self-defense. This was happening as the FBI was fueling tensions on the reservation as part of a covert campaign to suppress the activities of the American Indian Movement, or AIM, a grassroots group of activists focused on drawing attention to federal treaty rights violations, discrimination and police brutality targeting Native Americans. ADVERTISEMENT Peltier, an AIM member, was there that day. So based entirely on testimony from people who had been threatened and intimidated by the FBI, and operating within a 1970s-era criminal justice system tilted in favor of the U.S. government and against Indigenous rights activists like Peltier, the U.S. Attorney’s Office successfully charged him with murder. By all appearances, the FBI wants Peltier to die in prison while serving two life sentences. But Peltier is still alive, now 77 and ailing in a Florida penitentiary. He is perhaps America’s longest-serving political prisoner, a holdover from a different era of justice. Here in 2021, his story still moves hundreds of thousands of people to sign petitions in support of his release. An astounding mix of human rights leaders have urged his release over the years, including Pope Francis, the Dalai Lama, Mother Teresa, Nelson Mandela and Coretta Scott King. Prominent artists including Willie Nelson, Bonnie Raitt, Jackson Browne and Rage Aga
Free him now and hold the FBI accountable.
Leonard Peltier is innocent! Joe Biden needs to pardon him ASAP!
Leonard did not receive a fair trial as guaranteed by the Constitution.
free Leonard!
Free Leonard now
Leonard Peltier should be free with the facts they find out. He deserves a true hearing + a fair trial, now!
I am uncertain if Canadian names mean anything on this list to the government, but I hope it shows continued international support for such a crucial cause. Wake up.
I dont see how its ok for the goverment to continue to wrong Native Americans, or let it happen or ignore, the facts, Its something with meaning to fight for whats right, you cant go wrong when it comes from the heart. Mary Fisher, Ho-Chunk Nation
Free Leonard!

President Biden. Please urgently release this man.

FREE LEONARD FROM THE SHACKLES OF LIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Please give this man a fair trial.
Free Leonard
Clemency for Leonard Peltier!
I always do what I can to help my humans in need
Dear President Biden: We ask that you grant clemency to Mr. Leonard Peltier. We believe that you are the President with the temerity to bridge this chasm. Our hearts and hopes are with you.
The FBI and US DoJ used subterfuge and false information to extradite Leonard Peltier from Canada.
This is a FBI revenge imprisonment. FREE LEONARD PELTIER!!
I was 10 years old when this man went to prison for a crime he didn't commit, he is the prime example of a failed system and a victim of people that can't admit they screwed up.
This is an example of our corrupt justice system!
The USA can't let their own Nelson Mandela walk free. Shame on you.
Free Leonard Peltier!
Free Leonard! The trial was bogus! The FBI is racist.
This action is LONG OVERDUE !!!
This is beyond shameful... it is time to set him free
Dear President Biden, It is time to free Leonard Peltier, he was unjustly imprisoned to begin with. You have the authority to grant him clemency so he can return home.
Have no idea why they are asking for age & gender; seems unnecessary. Allowing Leonard to go home is VERY necessary.
There is documented evidence that the FBI framed Leonard Peltier. It is a travesty of justice every day that he remains in jail and a tragedy for he, himself, his family and Native Americans everywhere.
Free Leonard Peltier now!
do not support the gender binary
Free Leonard Peltier please!
Free Leonard.
Is is well past time to grant clemency to Leonard Peltier.
Full of blessings, brother Leonard. What they do to you is a total abomination! God knows it is and He gives you the courage and the strength to hold on, despite so much injustice. He is with you, there is no doubt about it! May He intervene with power so that you may be delivered from this infamous imprisonment and that you may again come and go as you please. Your freedom is stronger than imprisonment, for even locked up one cannot defeat a free man. Blessings.
on behalf of reconciliation it time to let him go and all heal & forgive
It is a dishonorable travesty that Leonard was convicted in the first place, and even more so he is continued to be confined. All the hard, real, true evidence is before you that his trial and the actions of the FBI were composed of fabrications, coercion, intimidation, lies, political machinations and outright racism. The FBI was and still is on a vendetta. They say the FBI 'always gets their man'. Well if that means by any underhanded, disgraceful, dishonest, conniving, manipulative ways, then I suppose they got their man. Free Leonard now and restore justice to the Native Indigenous population here in this country. Take this small action as a step towards apologizing for the horrid history of the US government towards American Indians, to begin the long road of reparation and restoration of Indigenous sovereign rights. Have enough courage to make the step, regardless of your political career. Free Leonard Peltier now.
Please investigate injustices and constitutional violations against indigenous peoples committed by the United States government and provide reparations for the generations of genocidal atrocities and practices. Returning all land currently under federal ownership would be a good start.
Please reverse this injustice which perpetuates the history of oppression of First Nation Peoples.
God Bless Leonard, he's suffered enough
Free Leonard Peltier!
In Solidarity ,an anti-imperialist Vietnam veteran
Please bring him home; he has deserved freedom all along but the least we can do is allow him to be in the arms of loved ones in his final years.
Free Leonard Peltier. It’s long-overdue.
Finally make this right, so we can heal from CoIntelpro
There is a definite need for a full congressional investigation and hearings regarding the presence of the FBI at that time and the role of COINTELPRO, especially given the conditions at Pine Ridge. It makes no sense. It never has.
Please please please allow him to spend his last years with hid dear ones
I can’t believe that I’m just now learning about this gross miscarriage of justice. Action must be taken to right this wrong and allow Leonard to live out the rest of his life as a free man.
Praying for Leonards Freedom!
The System has stolen Leonard Peltier's life. He receive clemency and be released NOW so that he may die a free man amongst the very, very many that love him.
Hold on leonard.
NOW!!
President Biden, please do the courageous thing and free Leonard Peltier!
As a First Nations member -please do this! Let's see if Natives are really important to you-not just during elections.
Please FREE Mr. Peltier!
It is past time to release an innocent man. It is over due that the FBI finally admit a wrong and release Leonard. YOU KNOW this would be the right thing to do. Aho
Show mercy, Mr. President. It's past time but I believe you can give Mr. Peltier the freedom he deserves.
Please free Lenard . He needs to be free to spend his last years at home with his family
Please do the right thing!!!!
Jill Renee
Free him now. He was just a humanitarian and he deserves our humanitarian efforts right now. He could die in jail after spending nearly 50 years in jail for a crime he did not commit ! This would be so easy Biden and so important and be so amazing for your legacy!
free Leonard Peltier
What a STAIN on the U.S. government!!! Release Leonard Peltier NOW! Last chance to do the RIGHT THING!
The former U.S. Attorney James Reynolds, who was a federal prosecutor for the District of South Dakota and was involved in Peltier’s prosecution, wrote to Biden in 2021 advocating for Peltier’s release. This is Reynolds reading a portion of that letter in a recent video produced by Preston Randolph. JAMES REYNOLDS: President Joe Biden, I write today from a position rare for a former prosecutor, to beseech you to commute the sentence of a man who I helped to put behind bars. Leonard Peltier’s conviction and continued incarceration is a testament in a time and system of justice that no longer has a place in our society. We were not able to prove that Mr. Peltier personally committed any offense on the reservation. As a result to Mr. Peltier’s conviction, now arrest, is that he was guilty of a murder simply because he was present on the reservation that day. He has served time for more than 46 years on the hands of minimal evidence, a result I strongly doubt would be upheld in any court today. I believe that a grant of executive clemency would serve the best interest of justice and the best interest of our country.
We stole their land. We stole their freedom. We've made their lives a living hell. It's about time to start fighting for our original people instead of against them. FREE LEONARD PELTIER!

At the beginning of the 21st century it´s really the time for the political and juristical responsive persons of the US to learn from the unhuman faults of their predecessors of the centuries before and to correct these faults by acting in a human, democratic non-rasist way.

It is beyond time to honour the truth and free Leonard with a pardon. I thank you
It is beyond time to honour the truth and free Leonard with a pardon. I thank you
Free Leonard Peltier
Resistencia!!!! Cada uno es un dedo que se fue de quebrar fácilmente, pero juntos somos un puño inquebrantable
free this man! He does not belong in jail. Give him back whats left of his life.
Leonard Peltier should not be in jail, he is only guilty of caring about the indeginous and attacked people of the US. The destructive US governments have taken away this poor mans life!!!
This country has very very bad karma, and until there is justice for the indigenous people of this land, the USA has a huge debt to pay. WAKE UP AMERICA!
I think. That Leonard.. should have been freed...This is so sad.. His whole life has been taken away.
I was hoping for a better CHANGE! Free Leonard Peltier. He was never proven guilty. The guilty party here is the people that put Indians on reservations, and took their sacred land! Try hiding in the Everglades from an unjust civalization that is destroying Mother Earth. These atrocites need to stop and let the people be free of adversaries out to destroy their ways of life.
Government oppression of Native Americans must stop!!!
US/Canadian aparthied must stop. Free Leonard Peltier.
Freedom to Léonard
It's time to free Leonard Peltier. It's not the 70s anymore.
The F.B.i. Has stated it has no proof that Leonard Peltier killed the two agents on the pine ridge reservation, I thought it was innocent until proven guilty? He was not proven guilty yet he sits in federal prison with bad health and aging, you can do the right thing Mr.President and sign clemency papers for him , Now is the time ,
