    "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."

    Godfather, the video is a smooth talking guy asking people on the street to sign his petition. The people who actually sign it are just dumb people not knowing any better, and the interviewer says just the right things to get some people to just go for it.

    i don't know that i'd say he knew just what to say, in some cases he flat out said from the beginning he wanted to repeal the 1st amendment. i understand he said stuff about hate speech and whatnot but when someone hears they want to repeal an amendment to the constitution that's not smooth talk it's ignorance
    don't compete; coexist

    what are you but my reflection? who am i to judge or strike you down?

    "I will promise you this, that if we have not gotten our troops out by the time I am president, it is the first thing I will do. I will get our troops home. We will bring an end to this war. You can take that to the bank." - Barack Obama

    when you told me 'if you can't beat 'em, join 'em'
    i was thinkin 'death before dishonor'

    This reminded me of one time on the man show they had a booth with a petition to end women's suffrage and they received many signatures.

    haha - is it ironic that one of the 5 freedoms guaranteed by the first ammendment is the freedom of petition? so if he gets enough sigs will the petition, like, immediately vaporize?

    All this shows is that people don't think Petitions make a difference...that is why they don't care to pay attention the the idiot trying to get them to sign and they just want to get rid of the person.

    Oh, contrare. What it shows is that people will fall for anything, if they are unknowing.

    What this demonstrates to me is the validity, or lack thereof, of a petition.

    I actually found this hilarious. And sad. It just shows how easily people can be led to believe anything. What's really sad is that most if not all of these people are probably registered voters. :shock:
