So a satire news site posted an article about a Texas town being quarantined after a family tested positive for Ebola.

This is down right idiotic and stupid to post. People will end up believing him and his so called "news". :nono:

He also made a fake Dept. of State travel advisory for Texas. :mad2: That alone should get the man arrested and charged. He should be locked up if he gets people hurt or killed.

Please keep the replies civil! :yes:
 
Anyone that uses the Ebola crisis,should be charged under the statue,that covers yelling fire in a group setting.
 
Well, the courts ruled the regular news doesn't have to tell the truth, why should this guy fall under a different standard?:dunno:
 
I see so many false stories on news sites now that unless I am familiar with and trust the news sources I don't believe it until I've cross referenced it with at least one known legitimate outlet.
 
You have no right not to be offended. Suck it up buttercup. Travel advisory for TX haha us long haired yankees have had one of those for decades.
 
The hot controversy coming up is that some folks are planning to wear "ebola" costumes on Halloween. Hazmat suit with an Ebola chest emblem.

Poor taste.
 
The only thing more entertaining than the satire news sites, is the comments on them from people who believe it.
