Murrsuiters get event cancelled and possible full-life consequences

[zachhart12]

I really thought this happened at first, but now after THINKING about it and all the arguments that it's fake...It probably didn't happen. I asked Tony on his latest journal if there's any new news about it, but no response.

[d.batty]

It's because it never happened.
It's a fucking conspiracy, maaaaan!!!!

[KarabinerCoyote]

If anything, the rumor likely distracted a bunch of you from your miseries, and made the time pass quickly.

[badlands]

I'm starting to think it's all fake as well. only one source and no new info.

[d.batty]

I have no misery. You are invalid sir.

Obligatory post of disgust:

Why don't more people listen to the wisdom of Uncle Kage? He EXPLICITLY said the right and wrong things to do in public, especially while in fursuits. These guys, by virtue of the fact that they were publicly doing things that got them arrested, are sullying the image of the fandom. It saddens me to hear that this even happened.

While I agree that there are things that you do and do not do in public as a function of common decency, I do not believe that this incident even took place. No proof has been provided, the person who wrote a journal entry about it deleted it, and will not respond to questions about it, no pictures or media reports have surfaced, and the city, which should be bound by freedom of information act requests, has not responded to my emails seeking comment to even begin the process of submitting an FOIA request for more information.

In short, I think we were trolled by the original poster/event organizers.

OP of this thread has nothing to do with the incident. He lives across the Atlantic Ocean.

I wasn't referring to the OP of this thread itself, but rather the person on FA who originally posted about it. Apologies for the minor confusion.

I agree with you. If there were kids around any self respecting adult, furry or not, would have broken it up before anyone would have seen it. I admit I was quite mad until I kept reading down.

stopped there; you should stop trolling so hard, 0/10, someone's gonna report you one of these days >:{

[Jaxinc]

Reply I got back from the Fire Chief regarding my email didn't seem like this was faked. All I got is the department is no longer in jeopardy at this time.

I really want to see some pics and maybe a video so that I can laugh at dumb ppl doing dumb stuff in public. the entertainment value in stuff like this is gold.

Translation: masturbate to it in private

No you dirty bastard

However my thoughts on this thing: The people who did this in public are big idiots.

I'd get more into the issue but then again I was the guy who put room 366 on /b/ and I kind of developed hatred against furries after all the drama they caused

[LemonJayde]

What the flying fck.

What is this. I can't even... Okay yes I can. These people are obviously the type that often show up in the media. Batten down the hatches, guys, there may be more media coverage ahead, thanks to these asshats.

[EmberKitt]

i have heard about this from a friend... and i have got to say it is pretty messed up :/ and they totally ruined it for everyone!

[LizardKing]

Here you go, have a dumb news article about it.

Also:
Original journal says, "$55,000 was stripped from their annual budget", but - as noted in the article - they only get $45k in funding [PDF].

So they are 10k in the red?

Fucking furries.

Welp, at least we know it is real now.

Now that the article has been unearthed, you may want to put it in the OP now...or someone should..
The town also went on a crusade against massage parlors in fear of prostitution.

Still sounds like it could be an over reaction.

[Evan of Phrygia]

Why did that reporter put Tony's true name in without any apparent permission? It looks more like she dug it up and used it without saying anything to Tony.

[SweetBear]

I wouldn't say the article has just been "dug up", look at the date on it, it's dated today. Also, it's full of inaccuracies judging by the comments on it.

People leave stupid comments on news articles all of the time, what makes this so different? Just because it involves furries you think that people will be more sympathetic? No. People will spew out more shit than a person with severe diarrhea.

As a city employee, things aren't always revealed to the public until it is the right time...or if the local newspaper has nothing better to report on. The council decision was probably aired locally on a closed circuit channel before it was announced.

Not really....
