Whose to say that in 100 years there will still be that requirement to perform for a paycheck.

So what you're saying is it's none of your business what they do, unless they do something you deem offensive, right? But then that contradicts what you said: "there is no such thing as an absolute morality." If there really were no such thing then how could anyone ever draw the line and decide that something is offensive? You're not making any sense.

As for the parade, I didn't say that that particular one was the one where they were sodomizing in public. Your reasoning (defense) behind their purpose for parading around half-naked is shallow, once again reliant upon playing up the victim card.

What's the use in discussing why I believe it's evil? Since you don't share my religious beliefs, it's pointless. I'm not trying to convert anyone.

Lastly, about schools teaching kids that homosexuality is ok, that's a verifiable fact. I've already posted a couple links in a post below, but it's rather easy to look that information up one your own using a search engine. The Constitution doesn't come with age restrictions; it applies to all Americans, including children. Apparently certain public schools think that they're above Constitutional law.]]> http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130516/15445423110/framework-copyright-reform.shtml#c1809 Sun, 19 May 2013 04:45:36 PDT http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130516/15445423110/framework-copyright-reform.shtml#c1809 http://www.techdirt.com/blog/innovation/articles/20130518/00045923138/awesome-stuff-cool-product-designs.shtml#c127 Sun, 19 May 2013 04:43:55 PDT http://www.techdirt.com/blog/innovation/articles/20130518/00045923138/awesome-stuff-cool-product-designs.shtml#c127 You're on a site he does because he wants to, not for income.

Oh come off it. Two things here, first off if it wasn't for money, there wouldn't be any advertising or paid posts. It's a business.

Second and more important is that the site is part of building brand Masnick, which means that even if he isn't selling it here, he is still selling because of it.]]> http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130514/17551823088/floridas-redlight-program-designed-to-make-driving-more-dangerous-shortening-yellow-lights.shtml#c451 Sun, 19 May 2013 03:44:12 PDT http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130514/17551823088/floridas-redlight-program-designed-to-make-driving-more-dangerous-shortening-yellow-lights.shtml#c451 Stanford, UT of TX law school professors and federalist society proclaimed bulk of US states as an 1812 to 2012 illegal, ironclad monopoly for 200-years.

Now there is a huge logical jump. I don't give a crap about Prenda. Who cares? They are not relevant to the hidden registration of the domain in question.

Why not start an anti-anti-copyright troll blog

There is no need. The real world is all that is needed.

By the way - how much time have you spent your life in Germany, China or New Zealand?

Visited, plenty, and planning to go this summer in that order.

Why do you need a "job"? To earn money? Why do you need money? To purchase things you need? Well, what if everything you need, all throughout the line of production, is produced quickly, cheaply, and in quantities surpassing demand? Is there need for money? Is there need for a "job"?

That utopian scenario is likely the end result of industrial automation (if we can figure out raw resource limitations, anyway). Granted, that won't happen for a long, long time, but until that point, we will always have jobs that need doing.]]> http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130426/10363322853/make-art-not-law.shtml#c97 Sun, 19 May 2013 01:31:03 PDT http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130426/10363322853/make-art-not-law.shtml#c97
