Stealing is stealing.

What kind of beer is on tap? Right now I'm at my son's coaches house with a few other coaches showing up. Shoot, I knew there was something even more important because I can bring the beer, the hooters girls and wings, how big is your TV? 720 or 1080?

What is that jazz they say at the start, end, or both of a televised NFL game? "All broadcast content is copyrighted material and belongs to the National Football League." Seems like Big Sis is trying to protect those property rights. I guess I don't see that as a political event. I strongly abhore all criminals and have to confess to sprouting a wide smile when I scanned the article.

Granted, police powers are broad and potentially unpleasant. The assumption is that the police powers will be yielded within the limits of authorization, and I didn't take it that these limits of authorization were overstepped. Maybe I missed something.

I agree.

I am surprised, though, that no one is addressing the fact that the event has not come to pass yet. (I guess they are guilty until proven inoccent). Or, that this has been addressed by Homeland Security and ICE.


“This swift action by our Homeland Security Investigations New York special agents and analysts sends a clear message to website operators..."

Thank God they are on top of this. Glad Homeland Security is protecting entertainment rights instead of protecting our boarders. Besides, what exactly got accomplished? A website is not going to be streaming what is free on national T.V..




Don't get me wrong, the websites are illegal, My issue is the dept. that is taking controle of this.
