The White House must respond to an online petition demanding the government to deport Justin Bieber. (RELATED: ‘It’s just a matter of time’ before Bieber gets deported)

After Bieber was arrested last Thursday for drunk driving, a petition popped up on WhiteHouse.gov urging the president to revoke the Canadian citizen’s green card (even though he likely has an artist’s visa).

The petition reads: “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 nations youth. We the people would like to remove Justin Bieber from our society.”

As of Wednesday afternoon — less than a week after the petition started — it has received over 110,000 signatures.

The White House must respond to any petitions that have over 100,000 signatures.

The petition to keep Bieber in the U.S., however, only has 1,600 signatures.
