stuckincincy Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 I know who they are after. I'm also not the one who started into this kid or his mother either. He isn't running a business, he just wants some DVD's to watch. The movie companies should go after people trying to make a profit off of them. I totally agree. 142712[/snapback] Have a job? Make some product, or provide some service for pay? Ok if I take your product for free? Ok if you provide a service to me but I don't pay you for it?

BF_in_Indiana Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 I've argued my point over and over. Listen, if you go to my house and steal something, its theft. You stole something. To say something is more valuable than the next is for me to decide (especially sentimental things). 142722[/snapback] Well since everyone is different everyone will have a different reaction to having a beer thrown on them or having things stolen from their house.

DC Tom Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 man I almost missed this.... 142728[/snapback] ...but once you see an 8-page thread that bf has contributed to, you have to stop in and gawk at the logical car wreck, don't you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC Tom Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 Well since everyone is different everyone will have a different reaction to having a beer thrown on them or having things stolen from their house. 142731[/snapback] Oh, everyone reacts differently, so it's okay. I'll remember that when you break into my house and steal a CD...then instead of the hospital I can put you in the morgue, since I'm just "reacting differently".

BF_in_Indiana Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 NO. 142726[/snapback] I have a good feeling you aren't being truthful. For those that have and want to lock this kid and his mother up, you people have absolutely NO room to speak on this matter. You should be sitting right next to him.

He isn't running a business, he just wants some DVD's to watch. The movie companies should go after people trying to make a profit off of them. I totally agree. 142712[/snapback] The nuance of conversation isn't your strong suit either is it? The reason people laid into the mother is because she did not think that abetting illegal behavior by her son was a big deal. That's the whole point. Why aren't you advocating the husband to do some free work for the owners of the DVDs? Yes, people steal pencils from work. Doesn't change the fact that it is wrong and illegal.

And if you record a game, it is legal but only for your personal use. They say it every game before the starts. It states blah, blah, blah, for anything other than your personal use, is strictly forbidden.

Missed the point again. If you broke into DC Toms house, and he shot you dead on the spot, some juries might say he over-reacted. But again, he doesn't know that you don't have a gun, that you won't harm his family, etc, etc, so i for one say that if Im on a jury where a man shoots an intruder, I could stare at some boobs in the courtroom the whole time, because my vote will be not guilty. Artest, on the other hand, knew what happened. Guy has cup, throws it. The WORST that happens is something else gets thrown and guy gets harshly escorted out. He made the situation MUCH worse. The fan didn't break into him home. It was a public setting. Stop ignoring that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am telling you what the consequences of your actions would be if you violated my personal property. Reading comprehension is a good thing, you should try it some time.

That's what pretty much resulted from the "Betamax" case. Once you start making copies and distributing (or broadcasting), that's when you start breaking the law. Try to understand the law before you spout it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
