  Re:

  Kenneth Wright does not have a criminal record.
  "He had his knee on my back and I had no idea why they were there," Wright said.
  
  "I look out of my window and I see 15 police officers," Wright said.
  
  No record, no accusation of a violent crime, but he was met with violent force. THIS IS WHAT A POLICE STATE LOOKS LIKE!
  
  15 not one.

  Re: Re: Somewhat dissappointed Mike

  Because it might be untrue. Yeah I think we have seen enough examples just on TD alone to support that claim. It just seemed to me that Mike was holding back. It may just be human nature to do this. He may have been thinking about future invites and the traffic to the site. After all it is a great opportunity to get page hits. I dont know. Mike?

  Somewhat dissappointed Mike

  6:11 - Why were you not honest and just say the truth. Because they are paid by those industries or promised cushy jobs. Why were you holding back?

  Re: Re: Hello, Steam!

  "don't most carriers offer insurance on their shipments"
  
  After 100 bucks. Paying 3.95 "insurance" for a product that costs 4.99 is mighty excessive.

  We need to switch it up

  Instead of fighting the pro IP crowd we need to join them. Let them get all the innovation stifling laws passed as quickly as possible so it reaches the average sheeple of America. Let them make it so bad 1/3 of users get kicked off the internet. Let prices go through the roof. Maybe when the populace cant get medicine due to cost and start dying people will get mad enough to do something. (I know I am in fantasy land. Americans will never get the balls.)Maybe we need to get our elected officials to just put prices on how much it would take to get certain legislation passed or denied. Then we could at least try to get like minded ppl together to try and purchase legislation as the corporations do.
