Sector 7: you are of course free not to sign the petition if you don't think it will do any good.

I was just wondering Sector 7g, what's your better idea?

Well i would start hundreds of petitions to stop all Zimbabwe's sports teams from being able to play against other nations and hopefully ruin their only entertainment/enjoyment left..for starters....!
Muerk what do you think this petition will actually do apart from break the backs of Zimbabwe cricket?

That's your brilliant plan? Mmmm... I'm totally underwhelmed by your amazing abilities to really provide practical help to the Zimbabwe people.
There's nothing like watching someone fiz in their own little tin can to see where the big talk ends up as a big nothing.

You just embarrassed yourself Muerk as that was my point!
Petition to stop cricketers=no practical help to Zimbabwe!
A backpat for you though!
Selfish really!

I'm sorry, I'll try to explain again. The issue isn't whether the original petition is useful or not. The issue is that if you're going to harp on about it, what's your better idea? You simply don't have one. And as such, watching you criticise the almost useless petition with a totally useless lack of anything, is well... stupid.
Icehawk said it nicely.

You changed the issue for some reason Muerk...why would you do that?????
