Re: But you'd NEVER distract by claiming they're all crying orphans
Oh look, one 'undocumented' did something bad, therefore every single immigrant, be him/her legal or not is guilty so separating entire families and causing horrible traumas in children is justified.
Keep showing the world the horrible person you are.

Doesn't really matter as long as it's our friends doing it to the enemy. And by enemy I mean everybody and everything we don't agree with or don't understand. - Bigoted asshole
Deep inside it's fear fueled by ignorance. Trump has plenty of ignorance so he must have plenty of fears.
"It's sad that their parents are criminals, but it's hardly DJT's fault."
Oh? They are? That's news to me. As far as you hear on the media it's usually your average Jane/Joe striving for a better life. Sometimes fleeing from fucking Hell.

Wow, what a huge mess. I'm fairly sure the always well intended law makers in the EU didn't expect this outcome. It will be delightful to see the shitshow the GDPR will produce. Maybe then it'll serve as a case-study of why we should 1- think of unintended consequences before "doing something", 2- listen to all those who may be affected positively or negatively to have a balanced set of viewpoints and 3- think about "what if I were in the receiving end of this law because privacy/accepted speech/societal norm was not my own or I didn't agree with?".
When the name Taplin popped up I automatically grabbed the popcorn and braced for comedic, deranged bits. I wasn't disappointed!
At the very least this kind of thing gives us a good idea of where not to look for reliable information. Boston Globe has positioned itself closer to famous tabloids. Maybe it was on purpose?
At the very least we now have real world examples of how bad it is thanks to bad laws everywhere starting with Germany. It's going to be harder for the censorship-happy crew cry wolf without being questioned. And the usual "FUD" screams will be less and less credible.
It's sad that we are needing to impose such burdens on free speech and on the Internet in order to have concrete examples of stuff people like TD, EFF and others have been pointing out for years.
I don't know who are the biggest assholes. The original ones that are just obnoxious people or the ones that "must do something" and end up with attempts to shit over all the rest with their "good intentions".
Can we pass a bill that sends politicians to jail for passing unconstitutional bills?
If by any chance they did something like this in my country I'd stop paying for music. If I already paid forcibly when buying my gadgets then why bother?
First you establish a vertical monopoly. Because it's ok, there is competition elsewhere. Then you expand horizontally and MaBell will look tame in comparison.
And then when somebody innocent decides to defend themselves because they can't possibly know what's going on they'll end up with several bullet holes, life (or lives) will be lost and nothing will change. Oh and toddlers will be burned by flash grenades.

I liked "You wouldn't download a car" but "You wouldn't download a pound of butter" sounds even better.
And my answer is: if the owner isn't deprived from the original pound of butter? Hell yes. Would I throw him money to make better butter so I can take more copies? Hell yes. Would I go to the store physically to appreciate the original butter and give the owner money in the process? Hell yes. And producing copies of food sounds a lot better than cars because we'd solve the hunger problem :D
He's the "REGULATIONS BAD, ME AWESOME" guy. We know the answer. The question is: will the answer be devoid of any suggestion of alternatives to "the bed" or will it come with alternatives consisting basically of "pixie powder" that work only on Neverland?
