Problems Signing WH SS109/M955 Ban Petition

[Scorpio64 5,156]

I am seeing reports that some people have been experiencing problems signing the WH petition to stop the ban on SS109 and M855 ammo.  I'd like to know if anyone else has had a similar problem. 

 

A link to the petition s below.

 

https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/stop-batfe-banning-xm855-ammunition/XrvVh1cj

 

The petition was receiving about 10,000 signatures per day, then slowed down to about 1,000 per day around the time reports of difficulties started coming in.  I have been urging all 2A supporters to sign the petition.  If anyone who has not yet signed the petition wishes to do so, please report any problems.

 

Please, I'd like to keep this thread on topic.  Just let me know if you have had any issues with completing the signing process.  If you would like to discuss the ban, there is already a thread about that.

Thanks for your help.

I did not have any issue completing the signing process for the petition.

 

(And I know you begged not to go off topic, but please also consider sending a fax via http://savem855.com/ and even printing out and mailing letters as well)

I didn't have any issues signing the petition a few days ago, but it was definitely a bit slow.

 

Are people having problems validating their email address from the site?

Most are reporting the site being slow as an nuisance issue but the main problem is with e-mail validation.

If you're having problems signing the petition now, wait until Obama starts controlling the internet three days from now.

What are the names of the US Congress staffers you have working on this? Presumably you have called your state legislators and Republican presidential hopefuls, got their names and email addresses, and asked them to follow-up on this issue.

 

5 minutes or less a day. It beats "liking" Obama.
