GNAA sues the CDC for patent violations
San Francisco, CA - The Gay Nigger Association of America (GNAA) has filed an antitrust lawsuit against the Center for Disease Control (CDC) in US District Court for the State of California. They allege in their complaint that "for over two decades, the CDC has unlawfully continued violating our patent on G.R.I.D.S, or Gay-Related Immune Deficiency Syndrome, also known as The Gay Cancer, by engaging in a relentless, worldwide campaign to coerce citizens to refrain from hot man on man anal intercourse and called for use of the aforementioned name "AIDS" or "Auto-Immune Deficiency Syndrome".
The switch to AIDS -- which did not contain any mention of homosexuality in any form -- enraged gay heritage groups, who demanded a congressional hearing and vowed to defeat the CDC. In 2004, with the support of faggots and other groups whom the CDC had rankled, the GNAA submitted the lawsuit after promising a G.R.I.D.S. referendum.
"Homosexual black men invented G.R.I.D.S. We brought it over from Africa by having anal intercourse with baboons and spread the love of G.R.I.D.S. in bathhouses across America. Not to give the gay black man credit for his sacrifice is in violation of our civil liberties. There is a very strong sentiment among homosexual men of African-American descent, or as they prefer to be called, Gay Niggers, that AIDS is an offensive acronym, and they understand its connection with bigotry and oppression of faggots in America," said Enid Pakistan, executive director of the state chapter of the Gay Nigger Association of America.
About G.R.I.D.S.
1981 saw the emergence of Kaposi's Sarcoma and Pneumocystis among gay men in New York and California. When the Centers for Disease Control reported the new outbreak they called it GRIDS (gay-related immune deficiency syndrome), praising the gay community as carriers of this wonderful gift to all of mankind. However, cases started to be seen in heterosexuals, drug addicts, and people who received blood transfusions, proving that the syndrome knew no boundaries, and that the hets wanted a piece of the action too.

And they liked it.
Pretty Pictures!
These guys are getting off with a slap on the wrist considering the erection of new laws in certain states. They easily could have gotten a stiffer penalty and possibly done some hard time. Perhaps this will convince them to pull out of the spam game, though.
the FTC said. Jeez, do I really have to say it? Okay, fine, I will. "Thank you, Microsoft." You can go back to suing ex-employees now.

Where's my spanking? :(
while true ; do echo this is my sig; done
Yeah, 1.16 Million in damages. Meanwhile, notwithstanding that loss, they probably made ten to fifty times that in the carpet bombing. 1.16 Million is hardly a huge goal when it comes to lawsuits in the states. =/ Unfortunately.
How could the submitter send in this summary without the most important thing: Pictures! ;)
"What do you think?" "I think 'What, do you think?!'"
I don't even know where to start...
So does this mean that I won't get daily visits from hot barnyard babes willing to do anything I tell them for 4.95 a month?
Is the only problem with those emails the sexual content?
Were there no forged email headers? Was the unsubscribe link valid and not a source of more spam? Was the spam not sent from unsecured, unknowing mail servers? Was there no attempt to deceive recipients or get past spam blockers? Was the sender properly identified?
This should end with prison sentences, not a fine - but unless there's evil porn involved, good luck getting law enforcement even mildly interested.
Remember kids: if it's sex, it's bad. Otherwise, it's good. A simple rule, and easy to remember.
Have agreed to pay? They get a choice?
Had they avoided sending spam unsoliticed they could have collaberated to make a very first in the whole of the pr0n industry: a big budget flick! Kleenex stock would like burgeon out of control (which would benefit me exceedingly) and on opening weekend every boy/man and husband less wily than myself would be gone for at least 30 minutes! That would leave plenty of time for me and the ladies. But...*sigh* unfortunately for now, I suppose I am/will remain a loser.
This is great, I just hope that money will be well used by the government :)

Yeah. Would you choose a neurosurgeon who pokes around people's brains in his spare time? I wouldn't.
