Creating a petition only has 87% support what the fuck? People writing their names on a piece of paper?
If I were polled I'd say it's unacceptable because it's meaningless bullshit that libs do instead of actual forms of protest.
The ~8% that finds rioting acceptable probably overlaps heavily with the ~4% that finds petitions unacceptable.
Also willingly adding your name to a list of people who oppose their government's policies that will then be given to said government sounds like a horrible idea.
