Andersen Vs. RIAA Counterclaims Challenged

NewYorkCountryLawyer writes "The RIAA is now challenging the counterclaims (PDF) in Atlantic v. Andersen, for Electronic Trespass, violation of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, Invasion of Privacy, Fraud, Negligent Misrepresentation, the tort of Outrage, Deceptive Business Practices under Oregon Trade Practices Act, and Oregon RICO, first discussed here in October 2005. The RIAA has moved to dismiss the counterclaims (PDF) brought by a disabled single mother in Oregon who lives on Social Security Disability and has never engaged in file sharing, this after unsuccessfully trying to force the face-to-face deposition of Ms. Andersen's 10-year-old daughter. Ms. Andersen's lawyer has filed opposition papers (PDF)."

    It's because they're black. You never hear Mexicans trotting out the race card all the time like black people do.

    Your daughter needs to move someplace where there are almost no black people. Most of the west coast is like that. We have a lot of Mexicans over here, but at least most of them will actually attempt to work for a living, usually doing crappy jobs like landscaping and cleaning. Most black people would rather sit around collecting welfare than work for a living, and then have the gall to complain about white people putting them in that position.

    Lastly, as someone who works in a restaurant, your daughter probably knows all too well that black people simply do not tip their servers, ever.
