I say we all let this scumbag know exactly what we think of him... Who's with me?

**GoldenRetrLuver** · 02-13-2005, 05:50 PM

Chances are he isn't going to do it. Probably just looking for attention.

He's a sicko either way. Poor Toby.

**Samantha Puppy** · 02-13-2005, 05:52 PM

Probably not, but to me even "threatening" to do something like this is disgusting.

**Jods** · 02-13-2005, 05:52 PM

why doesn't animal rights people just take him??

**Cincy'sMom** · 02-13-2005, 05:57 PM

I'm sure that this "person" (and I use the term VERY loosely) either does not even have a bunny, or has no intention of eating him if he does...this is merely a sick plan to take advantage of people....what a scum bag!

that makes me so sick. who has donated $13,000 to that b*st*rd?

I wonder if peta knows about this...?

Just another idiot out to make money from other idiots. I wouldn't waste my time.

**Samantha Puppy** · 02-13-2005, 06:09 PM

Hey, I know he either probably doens't have a rabbit, and if he does isn't going to kill it, but I still think the "joke" is absolutely tasteless.

Save Toby
If we all don't cough up $50,000 by June 30 then Toby, who happens to be 'the cutest little bunny on the planet', is going to die. His owner will kill him and eat him. Does this all sound familiar? Why, yes! It's a shameless rip-off of Save Bernd. Just as European movies are remade by Hollywood for American audiences, it now seems that European hoaxes are being remade for American audiences as well. However, the American version of the rabbit-killing hoax feels compelled to put a little notice at the bottom of the page telling us that it's all a joke. If you can't get savetoby.com to load, try the google cache version of it. The guy's site seems to be having bandwidth issues. (Thanks to Lawrence for the link)

Of course thats sick! But also www.truthorfiction.com is researching it now!

I wonder if internet extortion is in any way against the law?

**DJFyrewolf36** · 02-13-2005, 08:23 PM

You would think that this sort of thing would get people into trouble but I guess it is legal for him to solicit funds so long as he has a notice on his page that it's a joke. Sigh, what a sicko...

People make me sad
