Ever sign on-line petitions? I get some every day that are anti- dementia don. I've signed one. Have you signed any?

The one I signed is by a really smart California Congresswoman whom I very much admire. I get nervous signing anything since you never know how or where that signature will be used. I never sign any petitions by anyone at any time anywhere for any reason. Ever.

Decades ago there was a huge local scandal. Purported Dems were set up outside markets with petitions for something which I did not sign but later on it was discovered they were REPUBLICANS and used those signatures for REPUBLICAN-BASED goals. In other words they lied and cheated and misused the signatures. Ever since then I don't trust anyone wanting me to sign a petition. I know REPUBLICANS have no problemo lying or cheating or betraying their "pals" to support someone they want to win NO MATTER WHAT IT TAKES. So I suspect everyone and anyone of being that kind of Republican. A liar. Do you too?

    Every time I tried to write my signature on my monitor screen, it wouldn't work. I gave up.

    Thank you for your reply E and Happy Saturday to thee! :) I did a few times for things other than politics and haven't had a problem. I wonder what causes it for you?

    NO.  I don't sign anything to do with TRUMP. I don't know where the petition is coming from and I don't want tons of emails regarding the plight of whatever institution is representing Trump or anti.  If I were positive the site was secure?  Maybe. But I know of no sites that are.

    Exactly. You don't KNOW who is on the other or how that sig will be used. Best to butt out. Thank you for your reply Sharon and Happy Saturday! :) This post was edited by RosieG at November 16, 2019 10:48 AM MST

    I did it once with a non-political petition and I discovered that everyone in the world was sending spam to my email address.  Never again!
