A friend of mine pointed this absurd petition out to me. In it they are trying to collect signatures to try to get the
government to ban anime in America. Its one of those things that you have to read to believe. I didn't know if
anyone here has already seen/heard about it or not. I thought I would give the link for it and see what thought you all
had on this thing.

Oh my F'ing God! What the hell?! Why would anyone be arrested for enjoying a cartoon?! "Dark Land of Japan"?! I suggest we start a petition disallowing racists and dogmatic people from starting petitions! XP No need to worry, this will never go ahead! :D YAY!
In the end, all there is, is what exists and what we believe or perceive is true... and there's no distinctions between the two.

I can't name a time when an online petition has done anything. It's like a real petition, without the signatures, which is all anyone is really concerned with...

I think there has already been a post about this. But yeah, I think this has been floating around for a couple years now. Nothing has happened so far, and nothing ever will come of it.

It's not something to be taken seriously -- just look at some of the other petitions on that site.

There was already a topic on this. It's fake, now stop being so gullible. It's a petition site, petitions online DO nothing.

Agreed. Besides, major publications such as Newtype have already published articles and columns pointing out that the petition is a fake. Besides, anyone with a modicum of common sense who takes a moment to step back and objectively consider the petition upon the backdrop of American law, or even anyone who takes even five minutes of legwork to do some research, would know that it's fairly ludicrous, in my opinion.

Obviously, but still, it's outrageous to think that anyone would ever think this way.

Of course it's outrageous... I just wonder what class this guy had for making scams. I mean, look at the creator's e-mail. "neko" something or other. And I as I was reading the list of problems with Love Hina... it's pretty clear they are not making any specific scenes. All "assumptions" probably by church people. Bet he wanted to see what the reaction would be of these dodo heads.

Agree. I also laugh, because the person who made this petition site hasn't seen yet more perverted anime like Green Green TV. Nyahahahahahaha! :nya: :nya: :nya: I would like to see his/her reaction...What is "normal", anyway? If you aren't troubling the rest of the world, then there's no harm in being abnormal.

Now that is just sad. People are so uptight that they try banning anime, and on an online petition! hah!!! That is truly sad. They better ban movies, commercials, ad campaigns, and other mature cartoons if its such a serious issue to hid sex from kids. Please I new what doing "it" meant when I was in elementary school and I didn't find out from anime. Truly sad. But like everybody said it's just an online petition. Its just like most of those emails you get that say "if you send this to 10 people you'll get a prize in the mail." Don't fall for it.
All I want to do is read all day long. Can someone tell me how I can get a job like that! LET'S LEAD THE PROFESSIONAL READERS REVOLUTION!!! Any takers???- Mar 01, 2005
