I was going to paste a list of famous people that ate meat.....

But it appears I have a rack of lamb or is it lack of ram.

anyhow ... google will be shipping you a container full of cd's listing the names of people that actually eat meat, drummers excluded.

Nope, but be a dumb fuck if you want.
Taking other peoples work is Plagiarism. The fact that stealing doesn't bother you is expected.
If a company reads something they can sue for on a message board they can legally sue the board owners.
Stealing copyrighted material is something that can be sued for. Doubt they would win but who knows (with all these evil liberal judges :D ).


Erimir: I should mention that the meat eating plants wasn't a debate point, just curious what Alpha things. Although it's probably my mistake for thinking he can have an adult conversation. :D
Speaking of animals and injury, Alpha doesn't even need to hit an animal to kill it with his car. Many many manufacturing processes use some sort of animal part in their process or use material that had animal products used in the process. It is virtually impossible to live a normal american life and not use a product that at some point benefited from a dead animal.

To cover just one hightpoint of your idiocy, that list has been copied and spread all over the internet. It is a well-known compendium that has evolved, had deletions, expansions, and even existed before the internet - there's no copyrighting it - you don't know what you're babbling about!

Good for the list. It was on a copyrighted site, you should post a citation.
Now stop being a dumb fuck who defends plagiarism and next time cite your work.
I guess Plagiarism is acceptable to you, so much for values.
(Well I guess we could thow values out the window after your multiple lies and your enjoyment for Fox news and worldnetdaily. I guess I was expecting more from you. Let that be a lesson to me, never over estimate Alpha).

Not to side with alf again, but I'm not sure copyright applies to such a list. Mere statements of fact are not copyrightable. Copyright law regarding, for example, phonebooks is that you have to add something creative to the list in order for it to be copyrightable. So I dunno how strong of a case there would be for that list.

But unsurprisingly, alf responds to the copyright post and not mine.

He likely has you ignore, he does that to people who say things about his mother.

Erimir: True although I've already said I doubt they would win the case as I believe they would need to prove that they were damaged or the person gained from the use above and beyond whether they own the copyright, but that doesn't mean they still couldn't sue for fun, plenty of people do.

That is a side issue IMHO to the basic and non illegal fact that he plagiarized work for one of his many spam like threads. If he really wants to pretend he has better values than the evil christian hating liberals he could at least take a step in the right direction and not steal opening posts.

alpha must be stupider than previously suspected if he thought anyone might mistake him for a hippy.
