Re: The Music Industry Makes Me Mad!
you act like the law is something that was handed down by god. the law isn't some constant thing that's inflexible. it's supposed to protect the will of the majority, that's the whole fucking point of a democratic society and a representative government. so if a practice such as file-sharing is accpeted as Ok by the majority of the population then we should reexamine what "stealing" is. if most everyone does it and thinks it's ok, then why should it be deemed wrong just because it pisses off the minority, in this case the music industry. that's like suspending freedom of speach because some people are offened by shit, like the word "shit". the reason we have that is because most people agree that we should be able to do that and that's the right thing to do.

Then by your theory, drugs should be legalized, especially marajuana.

People deserve to get credit for their work!
Hahaha... and they are still pissed off at me. Calling me gay in my LJ now, and changing their community icon to read "Blue Blood Photography Sucks"
"(Forrest Black: banned)For being a whinney little douche that complained to lj abuse because we used a tiny peice out of one picture he took. Boo freaking hoo, let me be the first to tell you that blue blood photography sucks."
Yeah, whatever. I guess whoever said I couldn't do anything about it was mistaken. But I'm not about to let our photos be used to promote some asinine 'rating community' for people that just like being bitter assholes towards nice looking young people.
I just don't understand why people are so angry inside that they have to do that stuff, it's like kicking the dog, and I want no part of it, including my art.
