Default Re: Another reason not to play UB......Aruba boycott

The gov't of Aruba knows there is no EV in blocking the investigation. It is in their best interest to find the killer(s), but they couldn't.

The boycott is stupid. You are probably safer heading back to your hotel in Aruba than you are in Orlando.

I am not in favor of a boycott or anything of the sort. But many are not looking at the real reason behind this. Yes, she was killed.

We don't know if she was killed or not yet. She could have also been sold into the sex trade, which is another unfortunate possibility.

On a more serious note -- I've been to Aruba before and it is a great place, and from what I've read, they seem to have done everything possible to try and solve this case. Many Arubans are extremely offended by the disrespect NH's family has given them in regards to this case. I completely sympathize with the family, but Aruba is not some third world country full of people with the average intelligence of an Alabamian, the vast majority of the people there are very well educated, and most speak 4-5 languages. As their entire well-being is based on tourism, it is obviously not in their interest to have stuff like this happen. They are trying just as hard to solve this case as we would here in the States.

However, Alabama is. Should we boycott?

Wait I am confused, does this mean we can't boycott UB for being a crappy site with an awful bonus and tight games?

Oh yeah, Royal Hold Em...

It is more along the lines of her killers not being brought to justice. It is pretty obvious that Dutch boy did. But since he has a famous father, he will get away with it. I thin that is the reason they are calling for the boycott.

Also, some of you are the most close-mined people I have ever seen. There are some insane comments about the state of Alabama. People need to grow up.

Yeah, they should behave like a proper third world country, torture a confession out of the Dutch kid and put him in front of a firing sqaud. Instead, they let him go because they don't have enough evidecne to prosecute him. What do they think they are, Americans?

On this line of thinking, I am now boycotting all sites that promote tournaments in the U.S. (where I live). Too much killing (not to mention war). I guess that will free up quite a bit of time for me. I'll need a new hobby - maybe I'll become one of these blind, retarded, little-picture-seeing protestors.

Nope CDC came out with a list of high risk activities...

Drinking and having sex is one of them
Getting intoxicated in a foreign environment is on of them

Both pertinent to this case.
