I think it's very clear that spren hate strawberries. The first thing to do if we want to uphold the rights of spren everywhere is to eliminate all strawberries, especially those in a jam form.
I don't know ehere you get that one from. A rights for spren campaign would involve banning fabrials bassically...

What is the only place Strawberries come from?
What is the only place without spren?

Obviously, spren hate strawberries.

I like that reasoning!! :D

alright youve convinced me we cant trap all spren, but what about painspren, fearspren and intoxicationspren?  There must be tons of things out there that we can get rid of maybe there is a sociopathspren, or crimespren, we could make a mostly perfect world ;D

When you do come up with a motto for this, and we make Rights for Spren t-shirts, we should wear them and have a Walk for Spren!  5K would be a good start.  *nods*  In the meantime, we can stage protests.  I'll bring the posterboard to make our signs if somebody else can bring markers and poles to attach the posters.

Crimespren would be cool, especially if you were a cop.. totally easy to catch people if spren are flying around them :P
Now why'd you have to go and push that button?!

I'd totally create a fabrial that hid crimespren then. I'd be rich!

We would need a device to see spren. Most spren cannot be seen, unless by people with special abilities (e.g. Rock). Maybe if crimespren exist then Rock can see them, and then he would get an honoured place in the police force.

I would love to get some t-shirts going, but I can't think of anything really good. Any ideas anyone?

I think a fabrial that allows you to see spren would only show the kind that were trapped in its particular gems, so what we need to do is figure out how to pack a plethora of spren into every individual gem

I was thinking of a device that ran spren-free, maybe utilising a power from a different shard.

or just on stormlight? if it is good enough to power shardplade it is probably good enough to power shardglasses, that is what youwould call them right?

Of course! Further tests will be needed, but manufacturing of shardglasses will begin imminently. I will contact my sources on Roshar.

If we can use shardglasses to see spren can we use sharblades to kill them? Ah, it makes sense! the real reason syl didnt like dalinar sharblade is because it could kill her!

Recently, a theory has been circulating that implies that Greatshell beasts, such as chasmfiends, imprison spren inside their gemhearts in order help carry their bulky exoskeleton. (What sort of spren do you think they are? Strengthspren? Wildspren?) There have been sightings of strange spren surrounding dying Chasmfiends. Could these be the spren freed from their imprisonment in a gemheart?

If this rumour is true, action must be taken!!

Joking aside, that's actually an interesting theory... is there another thread discussing that?
Just an idle comment. My comments are often idle. I can never get them to do any solid work.

And here the hypocrisy comes out. You would kill a living breathing animal simply to "free" a force of nature? What's next, killing skyeels because they move by "enslaving" windspren?

I suspect this petition is sponsored not by caring individuals who want a full investigation into the ethical treatment of spren, but by a coalition of merchants and businessmen who wish to ban fabriels out of greed. Without soulcast food and materials, we would be forced to rely on them for everything we ever use. Instead of instant and effective communication by spanreed, we'd go back to the days of sending letters by-surprise!-merchants.
