I'm anxiously awaiting the launch of PirateWatch.com with ominous red fonts on black background and pictures of gangsters hocking bootleg DVDs.

The attorney general said rights holders need Americans’ help, not just the government’s. He said the United States is “encouraging the American people to become vigilant partners in identifying and disrupting intellectual property crimes.”
“Intellectual property theft,” he said, ranges from “counterfeit consumer goods and pharmaceuticals to illegal downloads and other pirated materials.”
The government, Holder added, “won’t be able to win this fight and keep pace with today’s criminals alone. Our efforts will always depend not only on law enforcement activity and industry partnerships, but also on robust public engagement and the vigilance of the American people.”
While we applaud the idea of installing keyloggers on friends’ computers to see if they are undermining the country’s economic recovery, asking America to be on the lookout for terrorists and intellectual-property infringers at the same time could be confusing.
Say, for instance, you spot an unattended, and possibly counterfeit Gucci bag in an airport? Who do you call first: The Transportation Security Administration or the Justice Department?

The TSA. In the event someone comes back to claim that purse they can bring in the military to detain that person indefinitely without trial as a suspected terrorist. If you call the justice department you've got to deal with all that due process and bill of rights bull .Say, for instance, you spot an unattended, and possibly counterfeit Gucci bag in an airport?

Yeah, this is all just part of the agenda. Everyone look the other way and pretend it isn't happening, meanwhile we are turning into a totalitarian police state of tattle tale control freaks.
Are you in Austin?
Snitching on piracy.
*slow clap*
you really didn't get that whole exchange, i just play the question game with him like he does to everyone else, he likes it.
tee, hee
My questions have a point.
I've found this is a common tactic for people whose butts still hurt after refusing to answer a few simple questions. It's quite lazy, but you probably see no other recourse. You certainly can't discuss anything honestly.
I guess I could just put them in statements saying you wouldn't answer a question regarding _____ because it would make you look like an idiot and/or completely destroy whatever stupid point you were trying to make in the first place.
I'm not going to ask; rather I will assume you would prefer not being engaged in a discussion and instead merely described by others.
Fine by me.
^talk about people who's "butts hurt"
Chump's groupies aside, that is really ed up. Our AG and treasury secretary are assholes that need to go. Thansk for the ing 'change' Obama.'

One of many.
tbqh, Hollywood spends just as much on both sides of the aisle. That's why a lot that they want passed is "bipartisan"...
I haven't flown in a while; are there flea markets or purse peddlers inside airports nowadays?
