I Was Walking Down The Street One Day

I was walking down a local street when I was accosted by people requesting I sign their petitions.  They actually talk to you as you pass, begging you to do the right thing.

One was to require all genetically modified foods be labeled.  Since there's nothing specially wrong with genetically modified foods--indeed, they represent a way of feeding more people for less--this is simply a scare tactic by misguided people to try to get food manufacturers to stop doing something that's a net positive.  No thanks.

One was to stop bullying in high schools.  I favor common sense, case-by-case rules aginst bullying, but the anti-bullying movement is closer to a zero-tolerance program that shuts down basic freedom of movement for anyone daring to step outside the present-day orthodoxy.  No thanks.

One had something to do with stray animals or something like that, but by that point I wasn't paying attention.

I'm not a petition signer by nature, but come on, at least give me something to work with.
