Jackass and Freedom of Speech

To:  Jackass/Joe Liberman

As many of you may know, MTV's Jackass is currently under attack. Friday January 26, shortly after watching the Jackass marathon, 13 year old Jason Lind from Connecticut, suffered second and third degree burns when he and two friends poured gasoline on his legs and then set it on fire. They claim they got the idea from watching a segment of Jackass. Unlike Johnny Knoxville, Jason wore no flame retardant suit and was under no supervision. Now Jason's parents are angry and have even involved Senator Joe Liberman in an attempt to cancel, tone down or reschedule Jackass and have even been seen on TV blaming Johnny Knoxville himself. This is an isolated and rediculous incident and it should in no way effect the future of the show or the actor's careers. If you are a fan of the show Jackass or of freedom of speech, please sign this petition to keep Jackass on the air. We need to prove, in an intelligent way, that the show and its fans will not be pushed aside.

Sincerely,

The Undersigned
