I am creating a petition on the White House Website to stop TC from creating petitions on the White House Website.

Any interest here? Need some more sigs.

Needs 99,998 signatures by November
Six days left, the outrage in the gaming community should make this a foregone conclusion.
For legal reasons, we are not threatening to destroy U.S. government property with our glorious medieval siege engine. But if we wanted to, we could. But we won’t. But we could.

It is not the government's job to ensure parents turn on the proper parental controls on their gaming systems. Parents should parent. A
Yeah, I agree, but when parents don't... I should not be held responsible for a new generation of addicts or poor people because they blow their money as fast as they earn it.
How are you held responsible for this?

Taxes for welfare checks?

Looking forward to the 60 minutes expose on a homeless family, tossed out on the streets by their toddler's unsupervised spending.

I just want to counter signal you for a second. Olive Garden has stupid touch pads and kids will click on games that cost money. I inquired about this and they told me it's ok and they would put it on my tab. Naturally I threw the stupid obama phone in her face. No need for a petition perse but this is a genuine threat to the economy.
