: You are required to enter a great deal of personal info to "sign" the petition. Be aware that this group WILL give your info to other companies and you WILL be inundated with junk email. (I speak from experience.) The following excerpt is from their privacy policy:

: "On occasion, the ACLJ Web Site may selectively provide certain information to other companies or organizations that have products or services that we think may be of interest to you. If you do not wish to receive email regarding third party products or services, please "opt out" by sending an email with you name, address + zip and phone number to acljmail@exis.net or you may write or send a postcard to..."

: If you must sign a petition there, I suggest that you immediately "opt out." Even so, be aware that quite often your "opting out" is ignored, and there's nothing you can reasonably do to stop the flood of email (without devoting your whole life to it) once your name has ended up on hundreds of emailing lists. Just so you know...
Quite honestly, I get so much junk now I don't think it's going to make too much of a difference.
So what are my options?
Stop pooping on my party anyways, huh?
Love ya!
