Senator Orrin Hatch a Pirate?
Stigmata669 writes "Remember a few days ago when Senator Orrin Hatch decided that software piracy was punishable by destruction of computers? Well a bored and unemployed Sys. Admin in Houston smelled a rat when he was rooting through Hatch's website source. As it turns out Sen. Hatch is a common software pirate himself."
Calling Orrin Hatch a butt pirate on slashdot has pretty much been the highlight of my day.
It was very cathartic.
Did not bother to read the article (mod me down, I need to burn karma, posting at +2 makes me self conscious)
Yeah... some guy in yesterdays 5 mins hate pointed this out. Same guy?
in soviet russia, orrin hatch pirates you!
Seriously, how do you think he's lived this long? That's right. Organs purchased on the Russian black market.

Mod this down, it may not be redundant, but at least the other post gives credit.
Hah. Domain hijacking at its finest.
First he advocates committing a crime, destruction of private property to combat piracy, then it turns out he is a pirate. Senator Hatch should be censured.
The Uncoveror: It's the real news.
he should be made to walk the plank.
or in this case the butt plank.
If you mod me down the terrorists will have won
Well, according to the good senator, there is simply no excuse for copyright infringement. No really. No excuse.
I think the Good Mr. Hatch needs to be tought a nice tough lesson in copyright inforcement. His web site, should be the first to go. He should also be liable for damages.
And someone should take out an order forcing him to stop wasting plastic with his folk music. That part would just be a public service.
