If you're gonna make up the drugs and the armed guards, then you might as well go ahead and make up their race too. Just insist that all the accused are white and the problem is solved.
I would think that those you mentioned would be advocating some position, not trying to make (allegedly) funny comments. Did the guy fail to see my somewhat sad attempts at making the Sunday Funniest cut while checking my profile?
Of course, the best way to get back at them would be to leave the "copyrighted" clips in, but black them completely out with a big statement in red lettering saying "REMOVED BY ORDER OF THE VANCOUVER AQUARIUM".
Naturally, a viewer seeing this in a film about the Vancouver Aquarium's possible mistreatment of dolphins would wonder what they were trying so hard to hide. Copyrighted web site images? Probably not. Vivisection of Flipper? More likely.
Come on guys. If this guy's allowed to infringe on the NFL's copyright by selling the tape of the first Super Bowl, then what incentive will the NFL have to produce future Super Bowls?
...Chicago recently announced it was postponing portions of the new tax until next year to field criticism and manage plan logistics. ...it remains unclear how the city plans to collect the tax. Would it demand that Netflix and Spotify tax users themselves, even if they have no physical presence in the city proper? Would Chicago residents be required to report this revenue (which they either won't do, or would hide behind VPNs)?
It seems like these are things that should've been hammered out BEFORE passing the actual law.

Re: Re: Whatcha wanna bet?
Whoops, total brain fart. They’re so often mentioned saying/doing the same idiotic crap I just got confused.
Whatcha wanna bet?
In two weeks, Google will receive a demand to delist radiohead.bandcamp.com from the MPAA on the grounds that it's distributing copyrighted material.

What's odd about it? Also, props for putting my handle in quotes, like I'm some kind of spy.

I'll remember this next time I have to pay a speeding ticket or property taxes.
