Shuttle Debris on Ebay

[mickeyfan29]

I saw this in a post by Jeff in Big D that the FBI is looking into reports of shuttle debris on Ebay.... I saw an auction that had shuttle debris that had a starting bid of $10,000- the auction hadn't started yet. Some People are idiots

 

[Helopoh]

GOOD GRIEF!!! WHAT MORONS!!!! I hope they are arrested...

 

[Lars624]

That is awful!

 

[Rajah]

That's horrible, but is anyone honestly surprised?

These people who would do that are lower than scum in my opinion. Yet they will be the first to say they got contaminated from it and sue the government for damages, even though they were told not to touch it.It just makes me very very MAD to even think of any loser doing this.....

I said that to someone this morning...I knew it would happen, and even worse, someone would have paid money for it. How can someone make money out of such a tragedy...I am disgusted that we can stoop so low as humans

 

[Boo'sMom]

incredible..I'm not surprised..but saddened.

 

[Helopoh]

Ebay Pulled it......Thank God!!!

DH and I were talking about this earlier today and DH saw the debris listings.

We both knew they would be there but we were so hoping that they would not.

 

[lynxstch]

listed on ebay today..and they are pulling every single one of them as soon as they are found!..some people will do anything to cash in on a tragedy!

I didn't think they would let that one happen. Do you think the person trying to sell it will have charges pressed against them? Sick, sick, sick!

So this is how I think this should go:


Knock, Knock,

Hello this is Special Sgent Smith and I am Special Agent Jones. We are with the FBI and are here about the item you have on ebay.

You're under arest.

Hopefully there are some grounds that these people can be prosecuted on.

I am sure there will be a few special agents knocking on their door. Dealing in government property is frowned upon.

How disgusting.

 

[Annie&Hallie'sMom]

I am not surprised, I am sickened, but not surprised.

And how about the people who touched debris (how many thousands of times were we told NOT to touch it) and then went to the hospital to ask if anything might happen to them!

So, how much do you want to bet that there will be a movie of the week soon?

ARUGH!

Another thing that bothers me about this is that those idiots should know that the investigators need all of the pieces to do their research to find out what exactly went wrong!

This morning I predicted three things would quickly happen:
1) Idiots would put bogus Columbia debris items on eBay.
2) Mid-eastern Arabs would be quoted as rejoicing in the death of the "zionist"astronaut.
3) The usual suspects would hint that Bush was to blame for the crash.

So far I'm two outta three and the day ain't over yet!

So sad that people would try to benefit from such a disaster.
