If you click on the warning you go to a support page from Google:Screen Shot 2015-09-23 at 4.50.50 AM

While officials from the borough are looking into that I can share with you some funny results from deeper into the search.

Of course when you go many pages into a search you start to get to some shady sites, mostly written in broken English, that are out there to just garner hits any way they can.  You get to those pages a lot faster when you narrow your search criteria as much as I do.

These, though, I couldn’t resist clicking on:Screen Shot 2015-09-23 at 4.56.50 AM“”why slab leak belmar seafood festival 2014 is destroying america”

This is what you get…aside from the possibility of malware…when you click on them:Screen Shot 2015-09-23 at 4.43.59 AMAnd:Screen Shot 2015-09-23 at 4.44.27 AMI could see some people thinking that the Seafood Festival is destroying Belmar, but America?

(BTW, clicking on the images will not take you to the websites, it takes you to screenshots I took of them, so it’s safe to click on them if you want to see the images a little bigger.)

    Seems like someone wants to create a situation to blame upon the “element”. It is getting easy to become paranoid around here.
