Can you get the Amnesty International site to open? I am having trouble trying to

Know the Facts About Capital Punishment

Capital punishment does not work. There is a wealth of mounting evidence that proves this fact.

The death penalty, both in the U.S. and around the world, is discriminatory and is used disproportionately against the poor, minorities and members of racial, ethnic and religious communities. Since humans are fallible, the risk of executing the innocent can never be eliminated.

Furthermore, the astronomical costs associated with putting a person on death row – including criminal investigations, lengthy trials and appeals – are leading many states to re-evaluate and re-consider having this flawed and unjust system on the books.

2. Works on Chrome

Here's my 1 2 step. First, try a different browser. IF you don't know what I mean you are on windows running the IE browser. You can download a different one here:
http://www.google.com/chrome
or here:
http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/

Now if it doesn't work in all browsers, maybe its your connection to just that site. Try connecting through a proxy by typing the URL into the middle of this page:
http://hidemyass.com/
don't give money through a proxy like this.

4. D'oh! I didn't think to try another browser. My first thought was actually that

maybe there was a lot of traffic on that particular page tonight.

It did open, finally, and I got to sign the pledge.

Thanks! :hi:

8. There may be a lot of people accessing the site

in response to the e-mail a little while ago.

9. Yeah, that's what brought me there too.
