  1. I want to petition to do something great in the world. What that is, I don’t know, I just know that I don’t want to live my life having done nothing significant for someone else. Something big, Something awesome. Something that shows that I care, and that I am a greater person than I seem to portray myself as. I’m better than this crap I do now.

  2. She had called each of her friends and extolled the virtues of her plan for hours to each. She had written to her member of government. She had organized bake sales and printed off bumper stickers. Yet no one knew or cared much about the changes she was proposing; people were missing their favorite shows, hadn’t they worked enough that week? Moralizing wasn’t getting anywheres. She had one option left, she was going to the hardware store and buying a gun.

  3. Can I petition the school to shorten the school year and extend summer break? Because I can’t stand this place anymore. I’m so sick of being here. I just want to be outside, and I just want to live, to have fun. I hate it here I hate it here i hate it here. I am utterly sick of this god forsaken prison

  4. its like when people are standing on the side of the road and yelling about removing someone from office i saw some standing hear my post office with a big sign that said nobama! these people sometimes make me a bit angry they go to extreme lengths just to get their point accross and most of the time it does nothing cause the government isnt actually gonna look at any of what these people are saying

  5. petitions are designed to fight for a cause. they can be designed to take someone down that does not need to be a leader. they go against wrong doing. they seek justice, what is right, and what is deserved

  7. What good does it do sign a petition? I guess to show that enough people care. What if we cared by our deeds and not our words. Has signing a petition become a fad? Does it help the causes it is meant to? What petition would I sign? I know what I believe in but how do I know that by signing my name you know it too?

  8. They help sometimes. But, often if a petition is against something that will gain someone massive amounts of money, they go unnoticed. Social issues can be affected by a petition but capital will not.

  9. A petition is something used to make something happen or to get something else. Like if you thought a law was bad, if you did a petition, maybe you could help have it changed. I signed a petition once for school.

  10. I wouldn’t sign the petition. I knew I should but I couldn’t. Everyone else I knew did…family, friends. But not me. It just didn’t feel right in my gut and no matter what I did to rationalise it I couldn’t make it right with me. So I didn’t sign. And then it happened…

  11. petition, a please, please give me a chance, it can’t be over, it’s un fair, not okay, you’re taking my rights, you can’t do this. people don’t support you. we want what we want, what we deserve, what we have the right to in the world. we want our happiness, we want it now, and we want it free.

  15. She liked to sign different petitions – “save alaskan wolves”, “help urkanian mothers”. Anything that sounded like fighting for the rights or starting a revolution sounded like music for her.

  16. Sinuses filled with dust and hands all run down weathered he signs his name in ink but that ink is laced with the blood of years of toil for himself and his forefathers. The tears stream down slow, slow, and slow does he smile. Finally, he stood up and made a difference.

  17. The petition for the removal of the pigeons was being promoted by a company of paranoid old men who were worried about disease. While there is certainly a danger in pigeon mess, it’s not nearly so bad or so likely to infect folks as the fantastically fragrant fumes of their old gas guzzling cars.

  18. hmm petition the first thing i thought about was a picket sign and people standing in front of a government building. the building has tall intimidating white pillars but the people are petitioning for something. some change. hm i kind of think that i don’t know the definition of petition. this description is making me second guess if i know what a petition is.

  22. pages for people pleading. voices need to be heard. feelings nee to be made known. a silent crying with a powerful force. a need for change in a place where change is hard to get. silent hope in hearts.

  26. Millie hammered on the big white door of the big white house at the end of her street; the one that was bigger and whiter than all the others. Without expression on her face she knocked against the wood until her knuckles bled and the door dented. No answer.

    And so it was off to the next house to try again.
