I would like to write about this little site that you may have known about. It's called www.savetoby.com
To put this as simply as possible, savetoby.com is a ransom demand. The site's annonymous creator wants $50,000 or he will simply kill his little furry bunny rabbit named "Toby", and eat him.

I wouldn't post this if it wasn't causing a lot of attention and controversy. People may be saying "So what, it's a rabbit!" but there are also people that are sending death threats and reporting to PETA (Yeah, that worthless hippie animal group). Guess what? He seems to have picked up a handy $25,000 nonetheless.

My question: Aren't these people aware that if they actually pay this sick-o that more people are going to do it?

My answer: Evidently not.
A reminder: It's a bunny.

Here is a little excerpt from the site:

Toby is the cutest little bunny on the planet. Unfortunately, he will DIE on June 30th, 2005 if you don.t help. I rescued him several months ago. I found him under my porch, soaking wet, injured from what appeared to be an attack from an alley cat. I took him in, thinking he had no chance to live from his injuries, but miraculously, he recovered. I have since spent several months nursing him to health. Toby is a fighter, that.s for sure.

Unfortunately, on June 30th, 2005, Toby will die. I am going to eat him. I am going to take Toby to a butcher to have him slaughter this cute bunny. I will then prepare Toby for a midsummer feast. I have several recipes under consideration, which can be seen, with some pretty graphic images, under the recipe section.

I won’t want to eat Toby, he is my friend, and he has always been the most loving, adorable pet. However, God as my witness, I will devour this little guy unless I receive 50,000$ USD into my account from donations or purchase of merchandise. You can help this poor, helpless bunny’s cause by making donations through my verified PayPal account by clicking on any of the Donate buttons on this site, or by purchasing merchandise at the Savetoby.com online store.

Tell us what you think about someone like this getting $25,000 - is this guy smart or just plain sick? Do you believe it?
