Yeahh, okay. I've heard tons of people use that phrase, I highly doubt you invented it.

I've seen you expressing your interesting 'view points' in many threads, and some of them are contradictory statements, and others seem to ask for a fight. We're hounding you because it seems as though every word that comes out of your mouth is meant to cause trouble.

So you agree that someone waisting money on some stupid moron's sick sense of humor is good? We're taking action because this person is swindling people out of money. For someone who is such a 'humans right' activist, you sure don't care much for them.

Re: http://www.savetoby.com/

Sparky, you just don't get it. You obviously can read because you keep missing the point. I am NOT, let me repeat NOT, trying to protect the people who are actually giving him money. I AM, AM, AM, trying to pretect the animals down the line who fall victim to someone who didn't know this was a joke. You know...the person who sees this and says "COOL!" but takes it a bit further and does actually kill an animal.

It is people like you who ONLY look to the here and now, and not to the actions that can come later on, who promote much of the cruelty. By not accepting responsibility for your actions now, and the outcomes, be it tomorrow, or 10 years down the line, you are condemning the immpressionable by giving them bad information, even if it was a joke.

You and your "opinions" disgust me.

No, we're trying to stop what might be considered a CRIMINAL action. There are laws against swindling and extortion. I object to swindling and extortion. Not to mention all the animal rights issues DaCourt brings up.

I disagree with your INaction against savetoby.com. I really think you should take the time to see what is inherently wrong with a site like this.

Re: http://www.savetoby.com/

You are right Chad, I am also against the illegal side of this as well, but I was trying to get through to Sparky, that there are some people who care about people, other than themselves. I have a headache...I don't think I can keep doing this.

Some people can't see the cruelty because it take more thought, but proving illegality is more black and white, and easier to see.

Re: http://www.savetoby.com/

well whatever flips your flapjack, i dont see a problem with savetoby.com, if everybody copies it, as you say, then it will lose it's impact and will stop making money, so its not going to cause a slippery slope effect and lead to the mass death of poor, cute little animals. my opinion, i have a right to it, stop making personal attacks

please

What personal attack. This is the kitchen...if you can't stand the heat, get the hell out. Sparky, let me tell you what I told my daughter to tell someone when they said something stupid or insulting..."Everyone is entitled to their own opinions...even if YOURS IS WRONG!"

For someone so into human rights, you sure are pro-crime and pro-lying.

And that's not a personal attack, I'm just shooting holes in your arguments. Too easy.

Chad and DaCourt, I must applaud you for your patience. I have been keeping up with this post and I don't think I could have kept my composure like you have. The ignorance in Sparky's posts are easy for everyone to see...except of course Sparky.

Re: http://www.savetoby.com/

dacourt, that little line you are teaching your line, is not witty in the slightest. chad, dissection is not a crime, and for all of you, the arrogance in your posts is nauseating

I highly doubt he was talking about dissection, he was talking about swindling and extortion. That is a crime.

n.
The state or quality of being arrogant; overbearing pride.
I don't see any overbearing pride in any of these posts, I see mostly intelligent posts filled with frustration at your ignorance and contradictions.

yes, there is a lot of arrogance, from you especially, i got confused when i said dissection, sorry

i dont think this qualifies as swindling/extortion, as only imbeceles would fall for it. but sure, if you want to get into technicalities, it is. but i dont have a problem with it personally

Re: http://www.savetoby.com/

I'm not trying to bring anything personal into the matter, I am simply not understanding your logic. As you say, only "imbeciles" would fall for it, and only those who are "malleable" would fall for it. So, therefore, according to you, we should do nothing about this situation at all because people should just know better? Heck, let's remove all the disclaimers on everything, the warning signs from hazardous products, and let's take off the railings on balconies too, because people should "know better" than to do anything stupid with them. I just don't get it.

Re: http://www.savetoby.com/

warning labels are neccesary, so that something that you wouldnt assume is dangerous can self-proclaim its danger. railings are neccesary because anybody can accidentally fall, any person with a shred of common sense can see through this, nobody could accidentally give money, therefore the analogy is irrelevant

Please point out wexactly where on this post I displayed a sense of self-importance. Because I choose to argue with your post it makes me have a sense of over-bearing pride? You're the one trying to put yourself above others by pointing fingers and talking about how "animal lovers are so malleable" and how "they're all just making fools of ourselves".
