Rob, the petition is not working. Once you fill in and hit the preview signiture it's giving an error message.

Re: The Online Paxil Protest Petition -- Please sign
Kim alot of sites like these are strictly for hosting petitions. They provide the site to do it and do accept adveritising. Occassionally a "conflict" will happen.

Re: The Online Paxil Protest Petition -- Please sign
If you have not already: you should also sign the "old petition" as well (which contains about 10,000+ signatures.)
The one I have created has a far more extensive set of demands (which is why I created it.) There are thousands of people that are no longer in a position to sign the new petition (but we won't go into that.....) |
