Rep Power: 500 | | I signed it too! I'd like to encourage the members to post the link at the other forums they frequent. The more sigs we can get, the better!
Speaking of sigs... Why not add the petition link to your sig. That way no one will mistake it for spam. Example: Petition to Legalize Marijuana and Release Non Violent Marijuana Offenders

Thanks guys.I just found that petition website by googling...I had no idea that it asked folks to donate, so I repeat, don't donate, because I have never set up anything requiring a donation.I'll add the link to my sig.

Everyone should sign this petition. Its the only way to get the attention of our politicians who still want to be blind to what the people want! We technically run the government but we all have to voice our opinions to get anything done. There are people here and people their that do a great job at reform but we All need to get involved Now! If a overwhelming amount people sign the petition then they have to respond to it! They will have no choice.

Thank you, og, you're right.We have to be a burr under their saddle.This is also why I'm sending it to the news media as well, so they can't just sweep it under the rug.

Folks, I sent the petition as promised.I got all form letter responses.Unfortunately, I could only get 465 signatures. This time, I'm doing it right.I've started it on a new website,and am giving it until 4/20/ 2010.I will start a new thread on this,with the new link.I know it probably seems like we've wasted our time, but this is the first petition I've ever done.So please indulge me and sign the new one.Now that we have more time, we can gather more signatures and get the ball rolling.
