...what you've just said ... is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever read. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having read it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul...
Actually, we here in the U.S. have a patent, trademark, and copyright on "Spending the economy into the ground". You'll be hearing from the AG shortly...
Perhaps they have it backwards... I believe impersonating a federal agent is a *real* crime. Whereas copyright violations are a civil courts matter. But in todays world of bought and paid for lawmakers... who the f**k knows?!?
The sad fact of the matter is - RR seeds won't matter very much anyway. I wonder if Monsanto (evil corp) will try and sue God for making weeds that are now Roundup resitant? These 'superweeds' are already becoming very prevalent, and will soon be the dominant weed on the farms that use Roundup - at that point, using Roundup (a Monsanto product) will effectively do nothing, and the farmers will very quickly realize RR seeds are worthless...
IANAL - just an ordinary guy on the street. This seems to an incredibly lopsided judgement. In a day and age when somebody murders another, cops a plea and is out of *prison* is less than 5 years... How is this award at all proportional to the "crime" committed? To me - remember IANAL - this entire judgement rings hollow. Regardless of what the law says - if most people believe that sharing files is akin to jaywalking, then handing out a judgement that effectively puts another person into indentured servitude for the rest of their natural life (and perhaps their decendants too) is morally reprehensible. The law may say they can, but it doesn't make it right.

As a life long Lions fan... At least you have a team that could possibly, at some point in the future, when they're lucky, with the wind under their sails... NOT SUCK ASS!
This is why our schools turn out idiots that "WANT TO DEBATE ME" - unbelievable...
Schools - "we need to cut back our costs"
Publishers - "PAY US MOAR!!"
Schools - "Well then we'll have to cut back our curriculum"
Publishers - "PAY US MOAR!!!"
I weep for the future... because of our present...
