Internet "Slam Book" Under Investigation?

I don't know as I personally would have much use for this type of thing, or if it serves much of a productive purpose - but those aren't exactly qualifiers for launching a web site. Reading this, it occurred to me that it's almost like a wired slam book, with all the issues the term wired conveys. Via a link for it I found at Hack College, it's on blogspot, I believe. See below.

TRENTON, N.J. - New Jersey prosecutors have subpoenaed records of JuicyCampus.com, a Web site that publishes anonymous, often malicious gossip about college students.
 
Language on the site ranges from catty to hateful and offensive. One thread, for example, on the "most overrated Princeton student" quickly dissolves into name-calling, homophobia and anti-Semitism.

JuicyCampus may be violating the state's Consumer Fraud Act by suggesting that it doesn't allow offensive material but providing no enforcement of that rule — and no way for users to report or dispute the material, New Jersey Attorney General Anne Milgram said Tuesday.

Milgram said she believes New Jersey is the first state to investigate the site.

The investigation began last month when a student came forward who had been terrorized by posts on the Web site that included her address. Prosecutors have subpoenaed information from JuicyCampus on how it is run, citing concerns about "unconscionable commercial practices."

What does this have to do with B. Hussein Obama??

Happy Victory in Iraq Day, patriots!

[IslamoLlama]

Um... yes. I have a similar inquiry. What does this have to do with... anything really? Freedom of Speech, kinda sorta? Or is this just Dan longing for those good old college days?

[Lala]

I thought college students all loved each other and mankind and would never treat another person badly and were tolerant of all lifestyles and cultures.

It would appear that Dick Cheney, a war hero himself, was again speaking to the GOP 'base'. Again, the base includes rednecks, religious fanatics and sundry simpletons.

As you flag-wavers enter year 6 of the constant success that is Iraq know that the Iraqi people will never perpetrate another 9/11 again.

Amen.

[seekeronos]

"--- As you flag-wavers ---"

Again, I ask you "chris"... what flag would you honor? Are you or are you not an American? If you are, why do you disparage the patriotism of those who do love our country?

Otherwise, one may be lead to presume that you are either a foreigner, or worse... an active enemy of this Republic with your continual and vitriolic attacks on people who like to wave the American flag.

[chris]

What, no bible quotes?? Can you wave the flag and your bible at the same time? After all, God 'blesses' America.

"I thought college students all loved each other and mankind and would never treat another person badly and were tolerant of all lifestyles and cultures."

Lala, some of Cheney's base do sneak into college and make it better, but the majority, especially on the coasts, are just hypocritical pukes like chris and Boob. Oh, excuse me, the millionaire chris/Boob. Or mayhap chris and Boob are twins, and not the same person, although it's hard for me to imagine two idiots of that calibre.

Thank you for your diservice to your country, chris/Boob. Wave that white flag, Booby. Amen!

[Lala]

"rednecks, religious fanatics, sundry simpletons"'''''

Chris can't belong to the party of tolerance and inclusion.

B in S makes fun of people who stammer and blond drunks who get murdered, so he can't either.

Hmmm, what can they be?

[chris]

Speaking of college students, it would appear that the private school edukation didn't do much for your kids. I'm telling you, get off your lazy ass and set a better example.

Since you asked:

"If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land." (2 Chronicles 7:14, KJV)

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

"And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the LORD thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth:

And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God." (Deuteronomy 28:1-2)

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

"But it shall come to pass, if thou wilt not hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe to do all his commandments and his statutes which I command thee this day; that all these curses shall come upon thee, and overtake thee:

Cursed shalt thou be in the city, and cursed shalt thou be in the field.

Cursed shall be thy basket and thy store.

Cursed shall be the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy land, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep.

Cursed shalt thou be when thou comest in, and cursed shalt thou be when thou goest out.

The LORD shall send upon thee cursing, vexation, and rebuke, in all that thou settest thine hand unto for to do, until thou be destroyed, and until thou perish quickly; because of the wickedness of thy doings, whereby thou hast forsaken me...
(Deuteronomy 28:15-20, KJV)

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
And the list of curses the Lord God brings upon the nations that reject Him are further and thus:

"Then the LORD will make thy plagues wonderful, and the plagues of thy seed, even great plagues, and of long continuance, and sore sicknesses, and of long continuance.

Moreover he will bring upon thee all the diseases of Egypt, which thou wast afraid of; and they shall cleave unto thee.

Also every sickness, and every plague, which is not written in the book of this law, them will the LORD bring upon thee, until thou be destroyed.

And ye shall be left few in number, whereas ye were as the stars of heaven for multitude; because thou wouldest not obey the voice of the LORD thy God.

And it shall come to pass, that as the LORD rejoiced over you to do you good, and to multiply you; so the LORD will rejoice over you to destroy you, and to bring you to nought; and ye shall be plucked from off the land whither thou goest to possess it.

And the LORD shall scatter thee among all people, from the one end of the earth even unto the other; and there thou shalt serve other gods, which neither thou nor thy fathers have known, even wood and stone.

And among these nations shalt thou find no ease, neither shall the sole of thy foot have rest: but the LORD shall give thee there a trembling heart, and failing of eyes, and sorrow of mind:

And thy life shall hang in doubt before thee; and thou shalt fear day and night, and shalt have none assurance of thy life:

In the morning thou shalt say, Would God it were even! and at even thou shalt say, Would God it were morning! for the fear of thine heart wherewith thou shalt fear, and for the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt see."

(Deuteronomy 28:59-67, KJV)

Why be destroyed along with the rest of this wicked and perverse generation, Bob and/or "chris"..?

What will it take for you to mourn for your doom and certain damnation, where you will be swept away by the crushing weight of your many sins into the flaming fires of hell which are not quenched, and where thy worm dieth not?

Therefore, I say to you... repent: bow your knees in abject sorrow for your sins, and receive the forgiveness and mercy of the Lord Jesus Christ.

What a total nutball.

"What does this have to do with B. Hussein Obama??"

Graet Aunt Agnes, one minute you people are whining that Dan is spending too much time on Obie. Then when he puts something else up you whine about that too. I'd say if you're not getting what you want you might start your own blog.

[seekeronos]

"--- What a total nutball. ---"

I wonder if you will say that to King Jesus when you stand before Him to be judged: somehow, I do not think you will be able to, especially if after He says:

"Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels..." (Matthew 25:41b, KJV)

This is the Judgment of the Lamb of God, Who sits enthroned as King forevermore:

"And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire." (Revelation 20:15, KJV)
