Do these petitions actually mean anything? I know BHO said any that get enough people will be considered but did they really (I think the deport Bieber and send Piers Morgan back to Britain had tons of signatures and they're still here)? I'd love to see the NFA restrictions and fees go away but just wonder if an online petition means anything to anyone in DC . I'd suggest writing to your representatives.

How it works and what happens is all here
https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/about#step-by-step
Basically, 100k signatures requires someone of effect to review the matter and respond. This is the productive citizen's version of burning down our own neighborhoods, singling out innocent people to beat them up, and smashing the Police vehicles that our tax dollars pay for.
"With We the People, you can easily create a petition online, share it, and collect signatures. If you gather 100,000 signature in 30 days, we’ll review your petition, make sure it gets in front of the appropriate policy experts, and issue an official response.
Petitioning has the potential to enact real change, but it’s also your fundamental right as an American citizen, and an opportunity to connect with a community of like-minded people who are invested in making a change. Ideally, running a petition on We the People is just the start of something bigger — a long-term, robust form of civic engagement. "
