Petition to Build a Death Star Submitted to the White House

Why not? Of course, it has as much chance of being approved as those seeking their states secession from the United States.

I wonder how much it would cost to build one, if the technology existed of course, I guess 1 trillion dollars.

Let's just build over the moon with metal, might still be too big though

I'm not even an American citizen and I signed it, under the name "Darth Sidious". On the signatures it pops up as "Darth S".

not to be a killjoy

well alright to be a kill joy

this mocks the actual point of petitions,

if by any changes to the law denounces any form of petition

you've yourselves to blame

How many online petitions does it take to change a lightbulb?

Online petitions don't change anything.

Usually not on the Federal level, but there has been a few in California and Washington State that have been noteworthy.

I lol'd when I first saw this on the homepage of TheForce.net. This actually reminds me of the video game Tom Clancy's EndWar where the U.S. built a space station for the deployment of Marines anywhere in the world. Too bad like Ronald Regans Project Star Wars this idea will never see the light of day.

I think if Pres Regan had argued for the Death Star rather than SDI, it may have passed Congress.

Who will play the role of Grand Moff Wilhuff Tarkin?

Former Fed Reserve Chairman Allen Greenspan

Almost 12,000 signatures!
