Compare and Contrast
Just take a look at the comments attached to the 'signatures' on the two online petitions covering the whole Columbia University Minuteman controversy.
It's very telling that the majority of honest replies on the Pro student protesters petition seem to be from organized unions or people directly involved in the university system. Luckily, of the 2400+ replies, a strong majority seem to be people who are just signing up to leave negative comments condemning the students actions.
The Anti student protesters petition, on the other hand, seem to pretty much cover the gambit of the rest of society with very few fake signatures.
