Hello fellow mall crawlers!
Please take a minute to sign this whitehouse petition to stop the expansion of 29 palms marine base and save the public land use for recreational activities as well as our only place to run King of the Hammers, KOH in Johnson Valley
If you are not familiar with king of the hammers, do a search on youtube. Crazy stuff, it only takes a minute and we have 16,000 signatures to go! I hope to be in this one day.
Don't forget to share this!

There have been a few of these petitions over the years. What makes this petition different? I'm all for keeping land open, just want to know the background.
Done #6642. sign it!
The petition is through the fancy new White House petitions web site. If it receives 25,000 signatures in 30 days, the President must respond to it. A couple days after that petition was created, they bumped the required signatures to 100,000 in 30 days, but this was grandfathered into the 25,000 vote requirement.
Like Cam, I'm all for keeping lands open and something as simple as this takes virtually no effort. However, call me a pessimistic douche, but I'd be absolutely floored if we (hell, ANY petition submitted) got any response beyond some sort of short essay written by one of his peons explaining succinctly why he doesn't do anything about it (if he actually has the power to do anything).
The Marines themselves admit they no longer need this land but the order to take it was given five years ago and it's hard to stop the train once it's left the station.
