SCARY! Although this was a small sample with no scientific value and just for fun, it suggests that you could make people support anything - just anything - if worded the right way, and probably invoking the right leader too.
Should the government enforce the mandatory use of helmets while walking?
14 out of 20 people asked that question at the University of Texas supported the draconian measure, emphasizing once again how the majority of the general public will accept almost any nanny state measure no matter how ludicrous.
The petition was entitled “Compelled Helmet Use for Misfortunate Public’ (CHUMP), and called for the City of Austin to enforce mandatory helmet usage for all citizens in addition to the creation of special walking lanes where people could walk obliviously while texting on their cellphones.
Most of the individuals who signed the petition had it explained to them very clearly. Some signed straight away, while others took a little convincing but happily put pen to paper.
WATCH THIS AND CRY

In August there was another fake petition asking passersby to support adding more carcinogens to their drinking water. They did!
