I thank him for his service. I chose my FR handle because a good number of my relatives served in the USAAC/USAAF in WWII.

There is the reasonable man standard for everything in life.

A million dollar fine for some Mom exceeds my reasonable man standard by Nine Hundred and Ninty Nine Thousand, Seven Hundred and Fifty Dollars....

IMO Hollywood and the Music Industry in general are the biggest bunch of Un-American Sacks of Crap in America.

IMO Musicians should market their music directly thru the Web.. cutting out the Music Industry. Same for people who produce movies..

I could have seen the Beatles live as a kid but I knew they were Communist Sacks and am very proud to have chosen not to do so.

IMO Hollywood and the Music Industry are by and large Anti-American Liberal Sacks of Crap who do everything in their power to attack and damage the Christian Faith and Pro American Values of conservative America.

In the Moves and in Print along with the MSM they portray conservatives as uneducated hicks, who, when not busy impregnating our sisters are hanging out barefoot banjo in hand on a bridge playing dueling banjos and leering at Liberal MetroSexuals in their tights, plastic helmets and Kayaks as they pass.

As far as I am concerned the majority of “musicians” appear to be Anti-American crotch grabbing, drug glorifying sacks of dog doo .

Personally If I heard American kids and other young people around the world thru piracy gutted the Music/Entertainment Industry, ripped the heart out of it financially.

My biggest concern would be if Orville Riddenbacker’s buttered popcorn took 2 min and 45 seconds or 2 min an 30 seconds on high to reach it’s greatest popping potential.

Unfortunately some of these lawsuits have been against computer illiterate parents whos minor children downloaded the software and music. The parents had no idea it was going on.

A lot of the file sharing software would default to "sharing" when installed allowing others to upload any songs downloaded to their computer.
