What it SAYS about us is that we aren't scum that get quick kicks out of "joking" (LOL you're soooo funny  ) about harming innocent creatures. If you have a dog I say God bless that poor thing. |
there are a lot of things that i find distasteful, disturbing and obscene... whether its someone telling me that if i don't embrace christianity, i will burn forever in hell.. to watching people pretend to care and willfully watching a genocide happen in Darfur or watching 2,000,000 people get butchered in Rwanda... or watching warlords take over Somalia and steal every bit of food, medicine and aid, while protesting the military trying to help to some peoples version of "art" or certain types of porn or whatever.
however, we live in a society that is supposed to respect the rights and views of others. however you rationalize your "being upset", that has nothing to do with anyones right to express themselves.
just because you don't think something is funny... doesn't mean you have some right to tell others what they can and can't look at and read, much less laugh at if they choose to.
the greatest irony of people who react like you is that you would NEVER tolerate someone coming at you with the same attitude, telling you what is acceptable, what isn't, whats funny and what isn't... what you can read and what you can't.

What if someone made a "joke" about How To Bomb a Hospital - then you'd get pissed right? I sincerely hope you would (if you wouldn't - go get yourself help. Now.)
|
what if someone tells a black joke... a mexican joke... a pollack joke, a blond joke, a joke about lawyers?
so what?
do you really feel that no one is going to be offended? humor is humor. it takes a mature mind to grasp that fact. what makes you laugh, isn't what makes me laugh. the difference between yourself and myself is that it would never occur to me in a million years to tell you what you should and shouldn't be laughing at.
this world has been fighting against that sort of narrow minded thinking and tyranny since the dawn of time. those same ideals you seem to willingly embrace and support.
[quote]You are advocating something (whether it is a joke or not) that is potentially harmful not only to dogs - that will still love you for SOME idiotic reason that I can't begin to comprehend - but to other people.
its a hoax. it doesn't "advocate" anything... anymore than a knock knock joke doesn't advocate knocking on doors. you are simply grasping to rationalize your own reaction.
furthermore, its a joke that 80% of the people who see it find amusing. a joke that 80% of the people who see it, understand that its funny because the humor is at the expense of people like you who are so quick to spin out emotionally and slow to recover.

Some idiot out there is going to see your sight (which does have some correct information on it - it is VERY easy to get rich quick with dog fighting) and give it a shot, and their dog is going to kill someone.

really? some idiot is going to do what exactly?
start trying to organize dog fighting events? what kind of person might this be? a mormon missionary? the school principle? a troupe of girlscouts? what kind of sick psychopath do you think is going to say "hey,.... this is a great idea, i am going to go get some pit bulls, beat the s**t out of them, starve them, run them to death... then find other like minded people, get together and organize dogfights"???really? in your world thats a reality? is your fear that a normal person might give it a shot, or that a total psychopath might be tempted as he's busy burying the bodies of his family in his backyard? WHO might this be influencing?
the existence of a knife doesn't influence a psychopath to kill.
again... saying that site might influence people to actually act and try to effectively organize something thats so taboo and illegal in all 50 states is reaching and is nothing more than a weak, pathetic attempt to rationalize your own reaction/behavior.
