John Edwards Campaign Complains of Virtual Vandalism to their Pretend HQ (http://www.texasrainmaker.com/2007/03/06/john-edwards-campaign-complains-of-virtual-vandalism-to-their-pretend-hq/)

We’re not talking actual, real-life vandalism… heck, we’re not even talking about website hacking… the Edwards camp is actually complaining (http://blog.johnedwards.com/story/2007/2/27/21847/2507) that some video game players virtually vandalized a pretend John Edwards Headquarters (http://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h57/texasrainmaker/sl.jpg).

Shortly before midnight (CST) on Monday, February 26, a group of republican Second Life users, some sporting “Bush ‘08″ tags, vandalized the John Edwards Second Life HQ. They plastered the area with Marxist/Lenninist posters and slogans, a feces spewing obsenity, and a photoshopped picture of John in blackface, all the while harrassing visitors with right-wing nonsense and obsenity-laden abuse of Democrats in general and John in particular.

I witnessed this event, taking names and photos, including the owners of the pictures. I also kept and saved a copy of the chat log. I have filed an abuse report with Linden Labs, and am awaiting their investigation.
When I first read this, I thought it must be a joke. I didn’t know what “Second Life” was, so I Googled it and found this page (http://secondlife.com/whatis/) explaining that it “is a 3-D virtual world entirely built and owned by its residents.”

A virtual world. Pretend. Make believe. Pretty well sums up Edwards’ chances of becoming President.

How long before these unemployed morons declare their fantasy world a “battleground state” and demand voting rights for the cartoon residents? No wonder our enemies are licking their chops.

Dork on Dork violence.

Who's making fun of the internet geeks? They're beyond ridicule.

I was laughing at the Edwards campaign for actually lodging a complaint about fake vandalism in a fake world to a fake Edwards campaign building.

Freakin' hilarious.

Yeah they probably just wanted to publicize the fact that there is a Republican Rebel Militia on "Second Life."

This from the same place that had to shut down an "interview" with some gal who's made a shit pot full of real money off Second Lifers because there were flying penises in the room.

But then again, Edwards is just taking a page from the Paris Hilton playbook.

Not if you're running for President and it makes you look crazy.

No shit. Anyone who reads and plagiarizes blogs that much needs to examine his own geek credentials.
