Animals have the same rights as retarded children – PETA said it, Not us

We feel that Animals have the same rights as retarded children – Alex Pacheco, Cofounder PETA

“Arson, property destruction, burglary and theft are ‘acceptable crimes’ when used for the animal cause.” - Alex Pacheco

My Email traffic with Nigerian scammers. How to Catch’em

I thought it would be fun see how far a scammer would go.  I was selling a laptop on Craigslist.com and as you can see from the email traffic below, Mr. Timmy David\Ms Deborah Johnson sent me a fake Paypal  invoice and continued to try and get me to ship it ASAP.  Then I told him that I had a son in the hospital and was selling this laptop to pay for the operation.  His response is golden.

Well I find it funny that you offer me $1200 when my ad says $900.
But, Great……I love helping hospitals in Africa.
Let me guess…..you’ll be paying me with a money order?  You’re in Nigeria or Ghana?    I love money orders.

Hooray for the people of Africa.  The people with the purest honest hearts and deep respect for God.  You help the good name of your people all over the world. Continue Reading…
