Please take the comment constructively. As an RKBA supporter I think the information you seek to convey is critical. Clarity of communication is essential, though, and this is especially true on a topic such as this.
So, stories should have headlines that aren’t confusing (and I realize you didn’t write the headline, but still some clarity is helpful). And if you must excerpt, make the excerpt reasonably informative.
Now, keep up the good work but, please, a little info.
Thanks, and here is your requested info. You want serious? This is serious. Of all the people on Free Republic, you should be one of the few who understand the seriousness of it all.
You "slurped" the entire contents of a blog post because you were unhappy with the "fair use" excerpt for reasons known best to yourself.
Think of all the problems Free Republic has had with copyright over the years and explain how "slurping" is a good thing.
If you are confused by what I say read this: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1111944/posts
Moderators have been known to rap the knuckles of people who tried to circumvent the fair use excerpt rules by posting full content as a message in a thread.
So the only question that remains: Will you press the abuse button and turn yourself in for a copyright infringement or will you wait for someone else on this thread to do it for you?
Best regards,
