| ![]() While it is false, they are still advocating dog fighting which is illegal in most, if not all, areas of the US. They are telling people it is okay to commit a crime if the site is based in the US and for that the site should be shut down. The fake satisfied customer reviews are from people who live in the US, so the site would seem to be saying that dog fighting is legal in those parts of the country and it probably isn't. Is there a way to bring this to the attention of search engines like Google, explain that the site is telling people it is okay to commit a crime and asking for the site to be pulled?

| ![]() Well, glad it's not real. I kinda figured that becaue one of the "testimonials" is from a "M. Vick"... as in Michael Vick, the NFL star who's in prison for dog fighting. There's nothing you can do about fake sites though. It's like that car website that sells blinker fluid... just supposed to be funny. ![]()

I can't look at that website. From the sounds of it it is SICKSICKSICK. Dog fighting is against the law - there should be laws that can get it shut down because it's promoting it.

Donating YT 7000 Club Member | ![]() Alrighty guys, I'm reading it more, and it sounds like a sarcastic site. Like it was set up by some dog lovers to bring attention to the stupidity that goes into it.

At the bottom, right hand side, of the page on the childtrade parody (medicaladoptions.com) they have the statement "Please stop organized dog fighting" __________________________________________________ _ | |

| ![]() As mentioned, this site is a HOAX...the same people run a FAKE site for child adoptions. Although I have to admit that when it first surfaced, I was fooled too...for about 2 seconds.... |

| ![]() there are several things that perplex me about peoples reactions to the sites we create. The first is this idea that everyone feels they have the right to tell others what they can and can't say. there was a time when the values of this country were centered around freedoms guaranteed and protected by the constitution. "oh my god... we have to have this site taken down right away... even if its a joke" Really? Where does that end? ANYONE can say that about anything. ANYONE can use that same logic and reasoning to construct arguments as to why this forum shouldn't exist... why you should be able to talk about things you care about. But of course, you would never accept that because it would be someone telling YOU what you can and can't do rather than you telling others. Why do you feel you have the right to tell others what can and can't be said, what can and can't be read and decide for them what is and isn't funny? I've got news for you... you don't. Protected speech is protected speech. Period. End of story. You do live in the USA... we do have a constitution. Something that many have fought and died for and made unimaginable sacrifice to make sure you and I have these rights. Now you are playing God? Huh? Since when did the US become N. Korea? Since when did you decide that you now are Chairman of The Peoples Glorious Committee Of Kim Jong Il for What Can and Can't Be Funny Or Laughed at In The Peoples Republic of North Korea?? The other thing that has truly perplexed me is the absolute, complete and total stupidity of people. Really? You can't think for yourself? An obvious hoax site, making impossible claims that soooo obviously can't be real and YOU can't figure it out in a couple seconds? You really want to believe that not only is there this massive underground dog fighting league... but that some guy is actively running a website to sell it as a "get rich quick" opportunity and the FBI, state and local police don't stop it? Are you seriously that dumb? the entire site is filled with humor (whether you find it distasteful or funny is another discussion) and clearly not written to be serious. I think you people need to get a grip... stop and take a hard look at your over the top reaction to a bad joke and start asking yourself what that says about you. Then, maybe put a little post-it note on your computer that simply says "learn to think for myself" - just because something is online, doesn't make it real. a 10 year old could create that site that you are so worked up about. I mean really... thats one domain out of over 130,000,000 - and a few web pages out of billions. You are going to get pissed about everything? About a fake dog fighting site? How about getting pissed the economy, about starving children, growing use of meth in public schools, or genocide or war? A bad joke? Seriously? Thats what is giving your life meaning right now? A sense of purpose? What a shame... and what a waste. Last edited by Wylie's Mom; 07-28-2008 at 10:04 AM. |

Donating YT 7000 Club Member | ![]() ^Dog fighting is against the law. No matter what way you turn it, advocating it and giving a how-to IS against the law. If some kid is killed based on the information on your STUPID idiotic site, you are in for some biiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiig law suits. And I hope you get slapped HARD with every one of them. What it SAYS about us is that we aren't scum that get quick kicks out of "joking" (LOL you're soooo funny ![]()
