Go ahead and create another petition that asks for Edward Snowden not to be pardoned and to be prosecuted to the full extent of the law and I bet that it hardly gets any signatures.

The NSA, CIA and FBI would game that petition. I think the phrase is "Manufactured Consent."

And people who've already written their own narrative wouldn't care if it was real.

That doesn't need a petition though, it's already the default position of the government.
