    Maybe it's just me, but why does the petition include "gun violence" in the tags?

    Anyone else bothered by that?

    I think this is creating confusion among the masses. "Oh, pro-2A petition. Yeah, I signed that already" is what most are thinking.

    Probably in an effort to get it towards the top of search engines. You know anti-2A gets top billing.

    New one is up for the Hughes amendment. Last one looked to have come up a little short. Kind of embarrassing. Let's not let it happen again.

    I did not know the man quoted above, and joined this Forum after his passing. He seemed to be a leader of men; both spiritually and physically. Someone we'd all be proud to emulate.

    I find it weird that the first one was roughly 2,500 signatures short with a full day left and they stopped it. Two days prior it was at 70,000 and jumped to 97,500 in that time span. Had they not ended it early I think it would have cleared 100k.

    Did they end it early? I think it started Jan 20 and ended Feb 19. That would be 30 days. The momentum was there but the interest was greatly delayed. I'm sure most gun owners didn't even know what Hughes was. Now they do.

    Ahh, I thought it was supposed to end on the 20th (Midnight). You're probably right. Here's to hoping we get on it early this time..
