I think it's just sad that people clog the petition site with crap like this. I don't think it's delusion really, I think they think it's cute, or funny, or a tribute to their movies, or whatever dumb reason. The banning hammers and baseball bats one is IMO another stupid cute petty thing that clogs the system. That should have been a forum comment, not a petition on the white house website.
Even worse is media picks up and shares this around like it's a concern worthy news item.
It's not that I don't believe in free speech, bla bla bla.. Just dang, we have a petition system and people use it for stupid. Then we wonder why the system addresses stupid things.
Yes, I am a cynical and jaded jacknape. I try to see all three sides of the coin- do you?
