Hey everybody,
do you know of, and can link to, petitions that have gathered more than 15,000 legitimate signatures from the general population, or more than 1,700 from defined subsets of the population (such as college students of the humanities, entrepreneurs, homeless...)?
Could be about anything - to save a local pet shelter, protest a raise of bus fares, demand an end to new surface lifts in a ski resort, call for secession of territory or the introduction of psychic healing to the things covered by health insurers. Actually, the funnier or weirder, the better. Local, regional, national or worldwide petitions equally welcome.
I want to compile a short list of petitions that gathered more signatures in much less time on a much smaller budget and for more obscure or localized causes that Richard Gage's ae911truth petition, which reached such a
ridiculously low percentage of its target population despite lobbying for nearly 5 years now with funds approaching a million bucks.
