In this instance, the facts are that the poster stole the intellectual property of another, violated the TOS and exposed the ownership of this site to criminal and civil liability.

Good job dog! You must be an internet police dog.

Take it up with the management.

Just trying to protect the ownership of this site from liability due to illegal activity on the part of certain posters here.

Is there any right more sacred to Americans than the right to vote? Yet we require registration for that. The NRA used to support the idea of background checks. They have given no good reason for their abandonment of this position other than an unwillingness to accept any regulation at all. I expect them to start lobbying soon to lift the ban on fully automatic weapons and I expect the ideologues to go right along with them. After all, it is easy to make the necessary changes, so why regulate it? We glorify violence, but then react with shock when things like the Boston bombings occur.

Other than Hollywood and when Obama got Osama, who is glorifying violence?

The NRA and its characterization that it is the weapons that preserve our freedom rather than the citizens for one. The NRA and its rabid supporters view guns with a cult like fanaticism. If we treated our shovels and hammers with the same degree of adoration we'd be viewed as nuts. Our love of gu s in America borders on the idolatrous. I am a gun owner and a supporter of the 2nd amendment, but some of you have gone off the deep end. Sorry, but someone has to say it. All rights are subject to regulation. It is absurd to behave as if they aren't.

So you are saying the NRA glorifies violence?
