When I posted the petition, I was hoping to get a few hundred signatures this first time around, and we more than doubled that. The response from racially responsible Whites was tremendous and has inspired me to continue the effort to force a much needed national dialogue on this topic.
Plus, we got a strong response from outside the pro-White community. In the first three minutes that it was live (i.e. available for random visitors to see on the website) we got 17 signatures and 61 signatures in the first hour. That was the most we received in any given hour of the campaign. Again, almost all of those signatures were from random visitors to the petition website who saw the petition at the top of the "Open Petitions" list, in other words, they were from folks outside of our community. As other petitions became available, our petition got pushed down the stack and fewer and fewer people, visiting the site, saw it. But for the 48 hours or so it was at the top of the list we received a very high "conversion rate" from our fellow Americans.
This stunning success never could have happened without help from so many in the community. I want to thank everyone who signed it and those who helped to promote it by posting links around the web, promoting the web banners, "liking" it on Facebook, retweeting on Twitter, and the myriad other way folks used the new media to promote it.
I'd especially like to thank the following folks, all of whom went out of there way to help me with this important project. (They are listed roughly in the order they got involved in the project.)
- Bo Sears of Resisting Defamation: Besides years of excellent work with that organization Bo has generously (and repeatedly) offered great advice whenever I've asked.
- Henry Davenport of the White GeNOcide Project: I sent out a request for help when I started this effort and Henry was one of the very first to respond. His advice was invaluable, and I felt like he was by my side all the way through.
- MAfreedom of Malevolent Freedom: MAF contacted me as soon as he found out I was doing this and offered me space on his website, time on his podcast, and he "pimped" my web banners every where he could. I am eternally grateful.
- Pastor Thom Robb of the Christian Revival Center: Pastor Robb was one of the first to promote the petition through his various website and he was an enthusiastic Facebook evangelist "liking" and sharing everything I posted about the petition.
- Travis Golie of the Racist America podcast: Travis offered me a prime slot on his podcast to talk about petition endeavors and offered to hand deliver a petition to the governor of the state of Texas.
- Tyrant Trooper of Battalion 14: TT has been a tireless activist, for the cause. for as long as I've known him (and long before). It's no exaggeration to say his sacrifices for the Fourteen Words are legendary. He got on top of this quickly and started to promote it to his crew and through Facebook. He was also instrumental in connecting me with others in his extensive network that contributed extensively to the campaign.
- Scott Hedge of the FAR Project: Hedge is another longtime activist who has a gift for organizing and bringing folks in the community together. He used those skills to advance this project in myriad ways.
- Jared Taylor of American Renaissance: Jared runs one of the largest pro-White news sources on the planet and he graciously used it to promote the petition.
- Kievsky of Mindweapons in Ragnarok: Kievsky keeps one of the best blogs on the web, I am grateful to him for using it to promote the petition at a pivotal time in getting the required signatures to "go live" on the White House website.
- Joe Adams of The White Voice: Joe's energy, creativity, and intelligence have enabled him to build one of the largest and most active pro-white information portals in the world. He placed all of that at my service, posting the petition to his website and interviewing me on his wonderful podcast.
- William Johnson of the American Freedom Party: Mr. Johnson took time from his busy schedule as a practising attorney and the Chairman of the AFP to offer words of encouragement and valuable web banner space on the AFP website.
- Adrian McComb: Adrian is a talented graphic artist who created the web banners that proved to be key in helping to promote the petition. If you'd like to engage him for graphics work you can reach him at mccomb1977@gmail.com
- Cynthia Keene of A Soldier's Path: Cynthia runs a prison outreach program for Whites who are imprisoned for their pro-White political beliefs. She took the initiative to be the first to host a petition web banner.
- Don Wassall of ANU News (and a billion other projects): Don's 30+ years of service to the cause are worthy of thanks on there own merits. But I'm particularly thankful for him helping to promote the petition through his well-trafficked website, ANU News.
- Kevin Clark of the British National Party: Thanks to our friends and allies over seas, the BNP and to Kevin for agreeing to promote re-publish my article on Why You Should Sign the Petition to End Racial Violence.
- Michael Weaver of the White Information Network: Michael actively promoted the petition through social media and published it on his excellent blog.
- James Edwards of The Political Cesspool: James is the host of the longest-running and largest pro-White broadcast radio show on the planet. Despite a busy schedule, he has always found time to correspond with me and given me access to his platform every time I've pestered him. Promoting the petition was no exception, James and his brilliant co-host, Keith Alexander, offered me 20 minutes of valuable airtime on their award winning show to help get the word out about the petition.
