Ahhh! What is it with violence these days?? Video games, wars, blood, they are all becoming a fad in the World, as well as in Whyville!

I am appalled at one petition that I read -- I won't disclose the name, for personal reasons, but here is the petition itself:

"i agree i agree wat!! ne ways im the 1 who says get off mi baq well listen iwant a new privelg i want a laser gun so on ur screen the guy gets zapped and vurns and dies kool huh but wait there is more u will recive 100 clamz4 zappin sum1 hey cityhall dont get me rong i like Whyville but i cant deal with it day in day out waitin for my salary here is a piece of edvice: I WANT THE CLAMZ FASTER*!!!! i mean i look at it and it is so bad i cant beraw lookin at it also if u think i llok cute sigh mi petion cause ill hook u up w/ sum 1 else whose lookin rofdeath ne ways i want 2 say vote 4 me for mi petition yay it is a lovely day and never rains well i wantit 2 rain i think rain is kool also there should b a hunnymoon resurant instead of theat fating food court blaq it discusein and the guy dont evr talk now that svcks ok vote 4 me by by!!!"

I bolded the parts that I was the most offended by. Whyville isn't about violence or "hooking up" or any of these things. And this person thinks that it's okay to have these things on a site that is for kids? I don't think so! At the least, I certainly don't hope so.

Besides that, I don't know about the rest of you but I don't think this is much of a Senatorial platform! Do you see anything about this that is "helping" Whyville in anyway? Killing, honeymoons, and online dating aren't ways to have people vote for you. I hope all of you who are running out there that think this will, please reconsider!

Thanks for your time! Cast your votes at now City Hall now for the newest Senator!

This is Smileon7 signing off! Peace, Love, and Sauerkraut. :)

Editor's Note: Wow! Was that really a platform, or just a petition? Either way, it should probably be 911-reported as a bad petition. I imagine City Workers would want to delete it, but I'm not sure.... Thanks for letting us know and sharing your opinions, smileon7!
