There is no Yelp quite like revenge Yelp — and revenge Yelp is out in full
force today. It has found the business page for Walter Palmer, the
Minnesota dentist who shot a beloved African lion, and bombarded it with
more than 1,500 one-star ratings.

[American dentist says he regrets killing Cecil the lion, but believed
hunt was legal]

Palmer’s other online accounts weren’t spared either, of course: The
Facebook page of River Bluff Dental, where Palmer works, also was flooded
with thousands of outraged comments. A dormant YouTube account is
plastered with all-caps insults and, more disconcertingly, Palmer’s
personal address. At some point this afternoon, someone also managed to
hijack River Bluff’s Web site and link it out to a fake Twitter page,
where pranksters posted pictures of smiling lions — and induced further
(in this case, misdirected) outrage.

In each of this instances, Palmer and River Bluff have ways to make the
drama go away: They can, for instance, close the YouTube account and
demand that Twitter take down @RiverBlufDental under the site’s
impersonation policy. They have, as of this writing, deleted their
Facebook page.

But Yelp is a very special, controversial case. See, even if business
owners don’t want their business to appear on the reviews site, there’s
absolutely no way they can remove it. Yelp obtains its business data from
third-party services, which means owners never actually opt-in to the
site. And while Yelp does encourage businesses to “claim” their page,
which gives them some measure of control over its content and the ability
to reply to reviews, it never lets them go dark entirely.

“Consumers have the right to talk about what they like” and don’t like,
Yelp explains in its FAQ section. “We don’t remove business listings, so
your best bet is to engage with your fans and critics alike and hear what
they have to say.”

Problems arise, however, when the people doing the talking are not
actually customers — say, when reviews are planted by competitors, or when
the business is involved in a public scandal like this one. Yelp-trashing
has actually become a sort of reflexive protest against certain
controversial events: Behold the fates of Amy’s Baking Co., Memories Pizza
and the clinic where Joan Rivers died.

Palmer, of course, is not a remotely sympathetic character, and it’s hard
to feel too sorry for his flagging reviews. But there are other people
working in that dentist’s office, and Yelp ratings tangibly affect their
livelihoods, too. (In a statement, Yelp said the false reviews violated
its content policies, and it appears that they are gradually being
removed.)

[Amy’s Baking Co. meltdown begs the question: Is Yelp bad for small
business?]

Meanwhile, Palmer has bigger problems: Zimbabwean police have said that
they’re looking into whether his hunt was criminal. Whatever they decide,
of course, he’ll already have been punished by the Internet tribunal.

like the capons and clucking hens they are. Instead, legitimate freedom is
being lost." (Selwyn Duke)

Really makes you wonder what the fuck is wrong with these people.

Or if we can ever coexist with them. I do not beleive we can.

Most likely at the request of the Obama State Dept.

Dr Palmer had the required license, permits and licensed hunting guide as
required by Zimbabwe law.
If anone is at fault and should be punished it is the guide. Zimbabwe
requires
that all big game hunters employ a licensed guide so that all hunting rules
and
regulations are followed.

Hypocrisy? I believe in hunting all furry animals. Including those bald
headed, bearded Beer Belly Militia types who protect Cliven Bundy because they
don't have real jobs and somebody's got to feed them.

I bet that if they had two cents to rub together, they'd go on Safari in
Africa.

But hold on, they don't like Black people, so that could present a problem.


Leroy loves his niggers. That's why he's obsessed with them and can't shut
the fuck up.

If it wasn't for them there niggers, the USA would end up in 40th place in the
Olympics because white people suck at sports, unless they're deflating the
footballs.

I have noit hunted except early in my life, but I am not opposed to
hunting.

That said there are some animals that should not be hunted. And since Cecil
was not a problem lion and he had an extended family to look over he was
one of them.

You want to be a tough guy, go hunt cape buffalo in tall grass. This was
not a hunt like it was 100 years ago. This was a thrill kill for the fun of
it.

I hope Palmer gets everything he deserves.
