Ray

This was never intended to be personal I never said anything about you personally and I frankly am offended by your comments. For your information I have been stolen from and no it didn't feel good. However we aren't talking about physical property we are talking about intellectual property. I never said I condone stealing and the fact the you misconstrue my words on this angers me even further. Then we come to your statement that I must not know much about the criminal justice system. For your information I work in the criminal justice system! I have a much greater understanding of criminal justice than you probably ever will. I work with criminals on a daily basis. I have taken classes in criminal law and justice. And your argument of the two farmers and their mules holds no water because there you are talking about someones livelyhood. Here we are talking about the rich not getting any richer. I stil stand by my position that the RIAA are a bunch of greedy thugs. And I won't back down from that position untill they show me otherwise. They are the reason record sales are suffering not illegal downloads. I for one refuse to purchase cd's anymore. I'll make my own music an listen to sound click or possibly the radio. Since you have decided to make this a heated argument though I have only one thing to say how would you like to be held responsible for someone else's actions? Well here you go then the wages of sin being death under your system you just killed yourself how does it feel? Oh by the way you also killed your wife children and friends in the process! Oh and in my opinion something worse than a thief is a hypocrit!
