  Re:

  Actually Binky, no prisoner of war would expect to be water-boarded (Tortured). See there is this thing called the Geneva Conventions (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geneva_Conventions) Particularly the third:

  Part III: Captivity
  
  Only terrorists and rouge nations dont follow these basic human protections.

  Re: Re: That is because Capitalists like Bush only want control of your money

  Since we are quoting:
  
  "Now more than ever before, the people are responsible for the character of their Congress. If that body be ignorant, reckless and corrupt, it is because the people tolerate ignorance, recklessness and corruption. If it be intelligent, brave and pure, it is because the people demand these high qualities to represent them in the national legislature.... If the next centennial does not find us a great nation ... it will be because those who represent the enterprise, the culture, and the morality of the nation do not aid in controlling the political forces."
  James Garfield, the twentieth president of the United States, 1877

  Knives serve many purposes, and I will even go as far as to say the dominate use of knives is not to cut food.
  
  "Not even close, the dominate use of the English language is to communicate, not to swindle."
  So f'in stupid I will just leave it at that.

  MPAA Chief Christopher Dodd Says SOPA Debate Isn't Over

  "Sen Dodd did not say SOPA is coming back to life. He said the tech and entertainment industries need to come together to work on a new solution and those conversations are beginning. SOPA is gone.

  2)My interest is just in the specific legal reasoning behind the revocation of the probation.
  
  Do you guys even read the articles anymore?
  
  You should really just stop writing comments that make yourself look like an idiot.

  We need to help them

  We need to help IP maximalist agenda. Lets face it, it is creeping along bit by bit. Lets help it get to the point where innovation is halted. Peak innovation needs to happen for real change. The public has neither the time or money to effectively fight this battle. Let em have it. Let it get to the point where every TV show, movie has blur bubbles in them to hide potentially infringing images in the background. Then when no one can create anything, even the IP maximalist that pushed for this will be neutered and wont be able to create anything new. Because, thats what copyright was meant to do. /s
  
  /end rant.

  Re: Re: Re:

  I know how caps locks work, and it obviously worked in this case even YOU got the point. Okay? K.
  
  Define limited:
  1. having a limit; restricted; confined
  2. without fullness or scope; narrow
  
  "In the time of the universe" Humans are not the universe so a big fat fucking fail there, please try harder next time.
  
  Greevar put it nicely:
  Which just points out that any works created in my lifetime will likely never enter the public domain. How is that limited or temporary? By the time that happens, the works won't be culturally relevant. Nobody will understand the meaning behind the works and will have greatly diminished ability to use it as a basis for new works.

  Re:

  Since we are quoting, lets get it right:
  To promote the Progress of Science and useful Arts, by securing for limited Times to Authors and Inventors the exclusive Right to their respective Writings and Discoveries.
  
  "The reality is that it is a two sided deal" - Yes, which FOR A LIMITED TIME, lemme make sure you got that, FOR A LIMITED TIME. So for a limited time it is supposed to help the artist FOR A LIMITED TIME be able to monetize their creation. Then it is supposed to benefit society after the LIMITED TIME monopoly expires. Your ilk would like to believe it protects for a lifetime, which was NOT its intended purpose.

  Re: Naturally you're misinterpreting this

  Nice try boB. You cant equate the choice of the life of an unborn child to copyright. Totally different.
  
  "we need to support the creators or we won't have any creations." Absolute bullshit, and you know it.
  
  A bunch of emotion filled crap.
  
  You ASSume no one creates for pure love of what they do. You ASSume every artists only does it to get paid. Such a sad view of the world, and it shows you have no passion. Must be a sad existence.
  
  So no points for you, a complete fail.
