Buh-Bye, Bieber! Thousands Sign White House Petition To Deport Justin & Revoke His Green Card
Jan. 27 2014, Published 2:31 p.m. ET
Increasingly, it seems like Justin Bieber's alleged egging attack and Miami drag race arrest won't be enough to get him deported -- or even locked up for any serious amount of time. So now, American citizens are taking the matter into their own hands, petitioning the White House to deport the troubled pop star and revoke his green card!
More than 40,000 non-Beliebers have signed the petition at the White House's We The People portal.
"We the people of the United States … would like to see the dangerous, destructive, and drug abusing Justin Bieber deported and his green card revoked," the petition states. "He is not only threatening the safety of our people, but he is also a terrible influence on our nation's youth. We the people would like to remove Justin Bieber from our society."
Petition organizers are aiming to collect 100,000 signatures in the hopes that it will catch the eye of President Obama.
According to the White House, "If a petition gets enough support, White House staff will review it, ensure it's sent to the appropriate policy experts, and issue a response."
Though the whole campaign may seem like wishful thinking, such pop culture petitions have evoked a response in the past: The White House has previously responded to petitions criticizing Jimmy Kimmel, asking for a White House beer recipe, and begging the White House to construct a $850,000,000,000,000,000 Death Star like the one featured in Star Wars.
