 fiberguyMy views are my own.Premium join:2005-05-20 kudos:3 | reply to Xioden said by Xioden:Piracy does not equal theft. Are you ma'ad?? What the hell do you think a Pirate is?? ... do yourself a favor and go steal any pirate movie such as Pirates of the Caribbean or something and see what a pirate is, if that helps. a Pirate is a thief!
Again, with the logic already... Piracy IS theft.
"Piracy is an act of robbery or criminal violence at sea. The term can include acts committed on land, in the air, or in other major bodies of water or on a shore. It does not normally include crimes committed against persons traveling on the same vessel as the perpetrator (e.g. one passenger stealing from others on the same vessel). The term has been used to refer to raids across land borders by non-state agents." |

 | so we should associate human morality with the consumption of goods in a society centered around the greed and desire to hoard that characterizes the human condition?
If what you say is true, why don't you spend more time harping on the entertainment industry's hijacking of the political process for alleges monetary gain at the expense of human rights and Democratic principles? |
