Title: Pardon Edward Snowden Post by: Matthew N. Wright on June 11, 2013, 07:07:20 AM https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/pardon-edward-snowden/Dp03vGYD
This is not an independent online petition on facebook that won't go anywhere, this is a legal petition that the White House will be forced to respond to publicly (and probably won't go anywhere other than a canned response about how Obama takes security violations seriously but will "look into it"). That doesn't mean we can't show them that we're all watching. edit: The number of votes is increasing every second. This is amazing to watch!

Title: Re: Pardon Edward Snowden Post by: Matthew N. Wright on June 12, 2013, 05:21:49 PM Wow, it was like 30,000 signatures a few days ago, now it's 60,000. I wonder what kind of bullshit response the white house is going to give when it reaches 500,000.
Title: Re: Pardon Edward Snowden Post by: Rampion on June 12, 2013, 05:23:51 PM Only 60k signatures in a country as big as the US? Jeeez, man, that's nothing.

Yea, I wasn't talking about the amount so much as the increase in amount on such a small time scale for an obscure site no one knows about (no one visits the white house website).
