No, it doesn't work that way. It's a waste of time. Domestic extremist groups aren't listed as terror groups.

.Are they Democrats? I guess they are off the hook man.

No, I'm just telling you that a law will need to be crafted in order to list Antifa as a terrorist group. And BOY if that legislation proceeds forward, you're going to have more problems than you could possibly imagine.

Let's work that through. If 100k signatures (or roughly .03% of the US population) designates any group as "terrorist group", what are the implications for the 1st amendment?

Do you think you couldn't get 100K signatures to designate the NRA a terrorist group?

 

[1DOWN4UP]

You could get 100,000 Sig's for anything.What I have not seen is the NRA breaking ,beating,rioting,and preaching future violence.Maybe they will all just go home.I did read that they are now demanding that Soreass pay them for their work.

"Sign this petition to get the NRA declared a terrorist group. They work to undermine common sense gun control, leaving guns in the hands of violent criminals, creating fear in our neighborhoods..."

If you believe it or not is irrelevant if you really want a country where .03% of the population can declare a group a "terror group".

I think the point here, which the INGO liberal police coalition may be missing, is that the White House Petition business is silly as hell. Most here are intelligent enough to grasp that signing a petition to label a vagina as a jelly sandwich, doesn't actually make it a jelly sandwich. But nonetheless, the silliness is there, and as long as it persists, there's no law against "the right" pointing out the silliness by participating in-kind. Or, not. (I will exercise my right to do the latter). Or, maybe we can use our "muscle" to perhaps try to persuade Trump to just do away with the White House Message Board altogether. (Although that would probably get him marked as the worst sort of anti-1A ogre).

Lighten up guys. Heh. You're like the Carly Simon song. You swarm to these street lights almost like you think they're about you.

So you think these clowns are only Domestic?

 

[Kutnupe14]

Yes, "Antifa" is American. If you mean the German, British, Swedish or any other versions which are spelled differently and also include the word "Action", and not interconnected, You'll need to draw up separate petitions.

 

[Slapstick]

There's already 146 k that signed. Yes it's silly to think that the White House will do any thing towards the stated goal and yes domestic groups aren't label terrorist organization but is it a waste of time? It does send a message that people aren't buying the ANTIFA BS, that they see them as a "hate" group. Is that really a bad thing?

INGO gems.


Not to mention that people would look really silly wearing a jelly sandwich as a hat.

Oh, wait.

Quick homework project.

Question #1- What are the number of "whitehouse.gov" petitions since the inception?

Question #2- How many of those petitions resulted in.....anything?

Question #3- How many of those were either not on the administration's agenda already or not? do-nothing, feel-good measures?

I'll get you started.

Remember when the majority INGO wanted less government control? Remember when INGO criticized a very small group of vocal individuals trying to go against the majority and force their own laws to limit freedom?

Obama is out of office, jet skiing with celebs. Those days are gone.

Let's get a petition started to have love handles designated as eminently attractive to the ladies.

I mean, if we get the signatures, it will become truth, right?

Ah, how quickly what was strictly in the liberal playbook and denigrated by conservatives becomes acceptable with the change of regime.

Exactly. Many people don't know this, but if you look back into history, you'll see that big boobs on women was considered unseemly until John Quincy Adams was cajoled into making them sexy via petitions to the White House.

That's awesome.

 

[JettaKnight]

That's awesome.

Yes, yes it is. Just think about how many signatures it took to get this man to make such a proclamation. I'm assuming the "white socks are sexy" petition failed.
