I didn't read half of this thread. But I agree with the spanish cat. Petitions are for fucking dumb fucks who don't want to actually do something.
Yes petitions are 'democratic' to an extent. To fucking bad we don't live in a democracy. Thank fucking god, because democracies suck dickwad. We live in a republic (que empire strikes back music), and in a republic you don't get to vote on laws, so stop fucking trying. So call up your representatives and tell them what you want to happen.
Oh, you are not 18? we don't give a fuck about your opinion because you don't fucking rate an opinion. Shut the fuck up and go back to school. Marijuana isn't going to help you graduate highschool, which should be your only fucking goal at this stage. I know this happens every generation, but the current set of fucks in grade school (thats 1-12 for you slow ones) are the biggest set of whining bitches with the most bloated sense of entitlement this world has ever seen. Go fucking earn your way you worthless sacks of shit. Oh, and if you are 18 and want to change something, call your representatives. Those petitioners outside Wholefoods arn't gonna change a damn thing.
/rant. It is sunny out, I'm gonna go for a run.
