It's it wrong to find this well enough written that it makes a bit of sense?

I'm sure mother nature will ignore the "Petition" and do it anyway.

This was... *glasses* Shocking to hear.
*bricked by lightning* :lol:
Sounds sorta crazy, but I guess it makes sense. However, one does not simply remove lightning with a peace of paper. :lol:

Don't worry. We'll migrate him to Canada.

We'll feed him marshmallows.

It'slikely lighting will indeed ignore the petition.
I can only imagine what manner of retaliation the United States goverment will employ.

This is just my opinion, but I think in an ironic situation, lightning will strike whoever was in possession of the petition at that point.

So instead of lightning we'd just get the heavy rain and rumbling sounds?

How about instead of banning it, we just prohibit it from striking people, the ground and everything on it, and aircraft.

We can make a deal where it's allowed to strike Detroit.

What about sprites, blue jets, and ELVES? Those are cool forms of lightning that don't hurt anyone... not gliding 50+ km above the storm.

And now I really am looking forward to buying inflatable squeaklatex furry suits, just to have insulation but also for... other reasons involving the inflatable suits in general. (Don't worry, every detail will be SFW.)
