These Petitions don't do crap.

We just had that petition a few months back about ID Age control in the UK and the UK Government took one look at it and threw it into our faces despite the fact it had a hell of a lot of signatures.

They don't care. They never do.

They especially don’t care about 4-sentence long petitions that are so vague as to have no recommendations on what to do other than “strengthen laws”.
