It's not a matter of being too busy. Nor is it a matter of being uncaring.
It's a matter of not signing my name to petitions that say things that I cannot fully support. If this were a petition that said "I join in supporting the Levinson family and in urging the government to do all that it can to bring Robert Levinson home," which I imagine is the sentiment behind the petition, then signing wouldn't be a problem.
But that's not what it says. It says "rescuing Levinson should be top priority right now for our country," and that we want to bring Levinson home "no matter what it takes."
As much as I'd like to join in showing support for the Levinsons, I can't sign a petition that says those things.
It is quite possible to want to support the Levinsons and at the same time believe that this petition is not the way to do it.
