I don't see anything about fair use that permits the complete reproduction of copyrighted material. From the Yale site (as well as the EFF site), fair use is determined by: (1) the purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes; (2) the nature of the co
When my grandmother watches Cops on FOX, she always thinks the cops are being too "brutal" with the suspects that are resisting arrest and speeding off endangering the lives of many. There are bad cops, as there are bad people in the world in any department, but it seems that many people feel that the cops are the bad guys and the rapists, drug dealers, drug addicts, murderers, thieves, etc. are the victims.
- theres a big number of people who are really into it. ( same with cannabis ) - the people who are not into it cannot see anything good in it. ( same with cannabis ) The same holds true for: homosexuality, Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, Matrix, American Idol, MTV, chocolate, everything else in th
I think you missed my point. The state gains in a number of ways from it's citizens. The only way you seem to consider of merit is by paying taxes. I'm saying that there are other ways for people to contribute to the state. If the state rewards their contributions with cash then I don't see that as welfare. I see that as paying f
I'm the Walnut Tree, being a true Scorpio. Wow! That fits me perfectly!
It reminds me of those people I see on Napster, that pay for the premium service on Napster so they could download all the music they want, and then crack it so that they could listen to it even after the service expires. One wonders why they don't take the logical approach of a pirate and simply use Kazaa or something. As for console games, they get cheap fast (well some of them). Hell, at FuncoLand, the Jet Li one is only $40, and Buffy 2 was $30
If we really want to get rid of the debt, why don't we get rid of programs that help only those that aren't contributing to paying off the debt (i.e. welfare, social security) and use the taxes from that to pay the debt? If we did that as well as ended the war on terrorism (which is but one of the ways the government wastes our money), the debt would plummet!
I can't argue that by turning Iraq into a democracy as opposed to abandoning it and allowing the Muslim radicals to take it over, that we're pissing off the Muslim radicals. Personally, I don't think the U.S. seeks to pander to the interests of the terrorists, and if some people hate the idea that Iraq become a democracy so much that they'll join terrorist groups to stop the U.S., then kudos to them. The debt in the U.S. has been around for awhile,
That's too bad. I never liked the idea of spending $50 on a game. I'll bet they sold it cheaper. Why even pay for it? Ever hear of the five finger discount?
I guess I should clarify the point I was making though, since it is clear that people are missing it. If you're going to criticize others for being naive, then you should at least not be naive yourself. That's the pot calling the kettle black.
I hope they enjoy prison. I wish they would make a reality TV show based on these guys' life in there. I'd watch it!
How mature.
You are putting words into my mouth... i dont care what other people use to validate their lives, i only care what validates my life, and it isn't religion - quit your harping. maybe actually READ what i write before you react. I never said religion was what you used to validate your life. <TAB
leave a piece of cheese out... i am sure it will develop mould, a living organism, all by its OWN!!! dont get into arguments regarding the creation of life, because simply, its something I dont understand, and YOU dont understand it either, so dont pretend you do. <a href="http://www.ammetenv.com/five.h
That's kind of sad that it isn't true. Not that I want such frivolous lawsuits to happen, but the aftermath definitely made it all worthwhile.
Maybe occupation in Iraq pisses off Muslim radicals, but is the job of the U.S. to appease violent terrorists?
Whats also funny is that NOTHING backs up the theory that God created the earth other than a crap load of heresay. Does that change the fact that science pretty much shows that life can't come about on its own? No. BAM! <TABLE cellpadding=8 width="95%" align=center bgColor=#FFF394 class="mb-Bod
People who feel the need to believe in a god are weak minded individuals who need to believe that there is a higher power guiding their lives, they can't face the reality that you are entirely responsible for your own success or failure. If something bad happens to you then that is simply probability and not the devils work!
As for "hindering" everyone else, how much do they take out of your pay check for social security? Sure, it seems like a lot, but the amount you get back, in theory, is what you've put in. Why is the theory wrong? Because people are living longer than they're supposed to. When the theory was set up people were expected to live t
Linux Zealot - The Internet's most controversial cartoon superhero What's funny is that someone seems to think that Linux doesn't have bugs, holes, etc. and someone seems to think that Microsoft doesn't plug the exploits and holes found. I guess that's why Software Update exists, eh?
I wouldnt give drugs to children, as much as i think it is unsmart to give religion to children. There´s a long tradition to do so. But that doesnt make it better. How is it unsmart to give religion to children? I really want to know how religion can be detrimental to children. Although I acknowledg
is everything just about cash to you? How about someone who pays $50 dollars into the pot, get $100 dollars in return, but has spent the past year doing charity work in Iraq? How about some who puts $20 dollars into the pot, gets $100 dollars back, but runs a soup kitchen in New York for the homeless? How about someone who puts $
Pardon my ignorance, but what did JFK do that was so great, besides get killed?
My posts are funny and outlandish because I notice the huge differences between religion and drugs, and because I acknowledge that if drugs are as great as you and others say, that surely children should have them as well. After all, it's not as if the side effects are that bad, right? At least not bad enough to mention. Besides, society lets children practice religion and watch action movies, and that suppos
One also has to ask: "Does it bother me that a drug user is arrested every twenty second?" Personally, I don't weap for them. Also, will rehabilitation really help? I don't see alcohol abuse ending anytime soon.
