Petition to Deport Justin Bieber Heads to the White House

The much talked about petition that was started last Thursday, Jan. 23 against pop singer Justin Bieber calling him “reckless, destructive, and drug abusing” has received the necessary signatures to be sent to the White House.

The petition is titled, “Deport Justin Bieber and revoke his greencard” on the We the People site, and has received a massive 118,000 signatures and counting by Wednesday.

The White House responds to petitions once they have surpassed 100,000 signatures.

19-year-old Bieber is in the United States on a special visa given to high profile people such as actors, musicians and academics.

The full petition reads as follows,

“We the people of the United States feel that we are being wrongly represented in the world of pop culture. We would like to see the dangerous, reckless, destructive, and drug abusing, Justin Bieber deported and his green card revoked. 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.”

How long it will take for the White House to provide an official response remains to be seen.

Bieber’s supporters, (or Beliebers), have responded and created their own petition on Jan. 25, also on the We the People site titled, “Stop Justin Bieber from getting deported.”

The petition has achieved 1,750 signatures as of Wednesday.

It reads: “The whole idea of Justin Drew Bieber getting deported, is completely unfair. He doesn’t deserve this…. With your help, we can stop it. He’s human. He’s not perfect. The media sees the bad side of him. Please. He’s saved so many lives. Including mine. A lifesaver, Shouldn’t deserve this.”

Deportation is highly unlikely, though.

According to U.S. immigration law, authorities do not revoke an individual’s visa unless the person has been convicted of a violent crime or been sentenced to more than one year imprisonment.
