I'm not sure if it was posted before, but that was nice Monday morning joke:

Lets Save America - Ban Anime Now (http://www.petitiononline.com/cutiepie/petition.html)

To: George Bush

Here in America, we live in a climate of moral decay. What is the cause of this? It is called "anime". Anime is a perverse, evil, insiduous form of animation from the dark land of Japan, and is corrupting America's youth at unprecedented rates. Here are a few examples of anime which are circulating on the Internet and may very well be in your home:

1) Ah My Goddess: A sick and disgusting show which causes children under the age of 18 to think they are capable of love. The main female character is clearly under 18, and is forced into a romantic relationship by an older man who "wishes" for her to be his girlfriend forever. He even KISSES her, and she appears NAKED. That poor girl must be so confused.

2) Love Hina: I'm not even going to mention the unspeakable, disgusting, pedophilic, pornograhpic events which transpire during this show, but suffice it to say, groups of young men on Love Hina-fueled rampages are raping children at a level unheard of since the 60s.

If you are a parent or a decent human being, I urge you to sign this petition to ban all forms of anime in the United States. Anyone who is found in possesion of anime should be arrested and jailed for an exhorbant period of time. Anime is a dark scourge upon our beautiful nation, and we don't need this Japanese filth corrupting the hearts of the children.

As a resonsible Christian, I demand to see this garbage removed from our nation. Please sign this petition and send it to George Bush, your Congressman, and the makers/distributors of anime filth and depravity.

Do the right thing.

Read signatures also - they are hilarious.

anime has destroyed the lives of all my friends! All they do is sit and watch mindless cartoons!

Can't we ban America and save Anime instead?

#16 is too good, I can't quote it here.

This stuff is quite humorous. Either way, ifthis was serious, wouldn't you think Bush would have bigger problems with sending soldiers to death to fight for his family's name and honor? Anime is no threat to the US, its a big fad and an AWESOME hobby at that :D.

Then why was my grandpa smuggling booze from Quebec to New-York back in the 1920s? For nothing? Dang... :lol:

(no my grandpa was not a smuggler, I'm just kidding)

I bet Bush watches tons of fansubs in his spare time... and hates yaoi fangurls :lol:

People that want anime out of America on morality grounds really lack perspective. I'm sure they think it is incredibly popular when, in reality, it is really niche for the most part. If crime rates are on the rise, sexual perversities are on an all time high, and more preschoolers are turning to witchcraft, anime has nothing to do with it.

I can't imagine how people get these ideas through political Logic :huh: i mean Japan is an American Ally. what's anime going to do make us kill each other is swords? I thought Kenshin's message to never kill again doesn't reach Politics instead it's like kill or be killed for killing. that and it's no worse then watching rated R movies.

Hey! why haven't they banned Jackass 2 yet?

My grandmother was a deer poacher and bootleg alcohol smuggler, on the Boston to Bangor run. But all the pictures we have of her, the pictures of many deer hanging in her garage, the oral history (http://www.fawi.net/ezine/pastezines/Volume1Number4.html#Amy) of prohibition era goings-on - those are all part of an elaborate hoax. Pure fabrication. :lol:

If this is a joke, kudos to the starter.

If not, then this is the exact reason why Christians are getting a bum rap. I believe in God and Jesus too, but that doesn't mean I let the bible affect what I watch, read, etc, and I also surely don't try to force my beliefs onto anyone either.

I can say that i believe Anime has made me turn Atheist, not that i believe in any of the philosophies and some of the scientific and logical meanings behind the events in most Anime, but it's made me start to wonder about our own existence. there are so many beliefs in the world and they all seem to be talking about the same thing, and in my opinion maybe there is not god, and it's just a story built off of some crazy idea.

I can say the same for Samurai Deeper Kyo, and Ghost in the Shell, but I'm 20 i think it's more natural then coming out from an anime, plus my dad is the biggest pervert in my family so i get a lot of it from him i guess

To: People who want to make a real difference Ok, what do you need I'm listening...


Why should we boycott Hellsing? !?! Oh I'm sorry I though you said make a "real" difference

I'll tell you why, it is corrupting our youth into thinking that oversized guns are cool with blood drinking... Your trying to tell me that oversized guns and vampires aren't cool.

The cartoon induces everyone who watches it to commit violent crimes like throat slitting for example...
I thought only GTA caused people to do violent acts like that... or was that only buying hookers and stealing cars I always forget.

it also contains offensive imagery including that of Jesus with written statements like "Jesus is taking a dump" written on the glove of one character. WOH WOH WOH now where the **** is this, don't tell me I missed out on a prize gem like this... hmm maybe this is in Hellsing Ultimate.

I urge everyone to take this petition seriously and get as many people to sign as possible so that this animated filth begone from our HD TV screens! HD screens! well well, someone's rich, maybe that's why I missed out on the "Jesus is taking a dump" image, my ****** old standard def tv must not have the pixels required to display that.

So what are you waiting for? Sign this petition and save the world and our children from this cartoon! ZOMG PLEASE SOMEONE THINK OF THE CHILDREN!!11

Ah that's good stuff don't think I laughed that hard at someone trying to be serious (which they probably aren't) in a long time.

You and me both pal! Non-USA HIGH FIVE! Woot!

Come to Canada! The TRUE land of freedom! :p reminds me of the documentary I saw recently 'Let's Escape to Canada' (or was it 'Let'S Flee to Canada'?) that talked about same-sex marriage, the 'Summer of legalization' where pot laws were in a limbo for the longest time and people running away from the war in Iraq like they did from Viet-name (both people who didn't and those who actually WENT there!).

Sadly the Canadian governement is coming down on Pot cafe because of pressures form the Americans... wuss! Shows that Chrétien isn't in power anymore -.- he would have stood up and say 'We make our own laws thank you'... well maybe not as clearly but still.
