    Under the DMCA just creating the tool is illegal. It doesn't matter if everyone or no one uses it.

    Really, there's no other explanation. Republicans and conservatives need to get these people working, or America will see THE CRAPFLOOD APOCALYPSE that will make slashdotting Kathleen Fent's webcam look like Dubya on a wine spritzer.

    Bars have been successfully sued for negligence when serving people "too much alcohol" where it has led to death or injury. Why is this different from gun manufacturers? Well, how much money does the "bartender lobby" spend compared with the "gun lobby"?

    So anybody who even mentions grammar or spelling is now a Nazi? Whatever, dude. If you either can't or won't spell correctly, expect to hear about it. If you don't want to hear about it, then just take the extra three seconds per post to make sure your words are spelled correctly, mean what you think they mean, and all come out in the right order.

    I pointed out the spelling error in the post itself, dumbass. That's what makes you the Spelling Nazi. If you can't stand bad spelling even as a joke, I'll bet that reading Chaucer gives you conniptions. Good goddamn, but I'd hate to make your acquaintance in real life.
