EVERY GUN is a military derivative firearm you Texas queer...
- Most hunting rifles are based off of Mausers, and Springfields, and other older military designs. - The Winchester Repeating Arms were were developed for the military - The flintlock, another military derivative rifle.
And in the future, when laser guns are viable. They'll be military derivatives.
You can't get a centerfire rifle much less powerful than an AR15. It uses just about one of the weakest cartridges in the world. Pretty much every hunting rifle is far more powerful.
Really, cause they're still the #1 group doing such training. In fact, 1/2 yoru police officers are likely benefiting from NRA training and support programs. FYI.
First, off, I don't believe IP rights should not be owned by corporations.They're far too abused.
Second, sure some are griping about them making money off their grandparents creative works. While I think that's wrong, I think it's far less wrong than a mega corp making those profits.
Third, from what I understand of the article. This wasn't even a contract. It was a word of mouth discussion. Then DC/Warner Bros wrote a contract based on that, and claimed it was a done deed. The lawsuit sounded as if the heirs were complaining that they never even signed/agreed to the contract.
Four, the problem with selling of creative rights, is that it's too easy to rip off the individual owners. Wait for them to be in financial stress, and then !@#$% over.
Five, if these folks owned 50% of the rights, and billions were made. They've been pretty well !@#$% for the past few decades. Because $4 million is pittance compared to billions.
Six, the courts always seem to favor the bigger company. It's rather disgusting. And why I really don't give a darn about protecting copyrights. MPAA/RIAA spend millions advertising against piracy and media cloning. Their big argument is it hurts the artist. BS. All the pirating in the world has not hurt artists half as bad as the copyright cartels have.
Sadly, it does tend to be the case. Our intellectual property rights laws and more so, court determinations. Almost ALWAYS favor corporations, the bigger the more favor.
Microsoft blatantly stole the "intellimouse" technology. Sure they lost in court and had to pay 1 million dollars to the inventing firm. But how many millions did Microsoft make from those mice?
You realize that many antique and historically relevant firearms are destroyed in such buybacks. Truthfully, they should be made available for next to free to museums before they are destroyed.
Actually, it has prevented many. But usually they are dismissed. For example, off duty cop, or in the case of the "security guard" at the church. Who was merely a citizen who had a carry permit, and due to some concerns had volunteered at the church. (Essentially, what I used to do.)
No, there are many cases. But you'll almost never hear them in the news, cause they do not fit the agenda.
That, and the perpetrator is usually taken out before it can become a "massacre".
That said, I believe a collection (town, county, etc) should have the right to own such. Why not, the Federal government is giving all these grants to small cities to buy light armored tanks vehicles.
What sort of fucktard are you that you feel you are so much better than a nice peace loving plant?
You object to killing animals for food, but you don't have any problem with killing plants. Why is your head worth more than a cabbage's? Don't think us spuds can't see you with our eyes. Yes, our ears of corn are listening to your words. And you are now a target of the VLO (Vegetable Liberation Organization).
Why don't you learn to photosynthesize and produce your own food instead of killing us vegetables!!!
Irony, is that I am mostly supportive of vaccines. But question a number of practices:
a) Why we give toddlers 2-6 vaccines in a single month
b) Why the VAERS database used to prove the safety of vaccines is hogwash, because instances of reaction are never reported. Because doctors use circular logic. Vaccines don't cause reactions. Therefore your condition is not vaccine related. Therefore I won't report it.
I have argued ALL incidents within 48 hours of vaccination should be required for reporting. Even a broken leg. Might seem totally innoculous. But what if we discovered that within 48 hours of a vaccination, a lot more broken bones occurred. If you don't report ALL the data, then filter and mine the data, you have a useless archive that is pre-filtered for your hypothesis. And this is EXACTLY what goes on with the VAERS database.
c) How can the FDA tell me Gardasil is safe enough for states to mandate for children but far too dangerous to allow anyone over the age of 26 to receive the vaccination.
"2. Flu Vaccine can still cause a few days worth of flu like symptoms." no, it can't.
Yes it can..., symptoms are merely the reaction. This has been documented.
"becasue i some case what you do with your body impacts the people around you. You're coworkers, the person you buy lunch from, everyone. A flu pandemic can kill millions."
Any pandemic can kill. But to be honest, the flu vaccine is NOT going to prevent an influenza pandemic.
And you know what, I am rather fond of anectdotal evidence. We were given the flu shot in the military. And a large portion of us suffered symptoms.
And yes, when most of the people I know get the flu shot, then still get the flu. Go to the doctor, and are swabbed and told it's the flu, the vaccine just didn't match up well this year. Sorry, I'm going to think lowly of the vaccine.
"Personal liberty" is a pretty vague term...
And why is that? Hell, try getting an HPV vaccine. They're posting article left and right how not enough people are getting it. But then refusing to give it to anyone over 26.
But it's totally safe to give to kids...this is the dumb shit the FDA does. That leaves us questioning.
Slashdot Mirror
Waking up by pounding gestapo at your door and watching you and your neighbor hauled off and killed.
(Oh yes, this isn't even Godwin's law. This is Russia, this is Cambodia, this is Rwanda, Los Angeles....many other places.)
If I'm going to do that, I'll build and atom bomb and go out in a historical fashion... :-P

A pen...
More people have been killed by pens than anything else in this world. See Iraq, one executive signature and how many thousands are dead?
Hey Moron,
You can't get a centerfire rifle much less powerful than an AR15. It uses just about one of the weakest cartridges in the world. Pretty much every hunting rifle is far more powerful.
But you're uneducated...
Actually it makes almost every 22 illegal. Most 22 revolvers have 8 or more shots. Most 22 lever actions have greater than 7 round capacity.
Basically, you can have a break open or 5 round mag.
The building that houses the video gamers that fly those drones silly....
Really, cause they're still the #1 group doing such training. In fact, 1/2 yoru police officers are likely benefiting from NRA training and support programs. FYI.
Considering the authors of the Constitution had just gone and killed their prior government. Um, yes....
Regulated = trained btw...
That these copyright cartels, have repeatedly for decades ripped off artists...
But where is our 6 strikes law for them?
6th time you rip off and swindle an artist, you lose ALL your copyrights and they all return to the original authors. Sounds good to me.

DC has made billions off of Superman, and they're complaining about paying $4 million.
I am of the opinion, that there should be a 2% rule. A perpetual 2% of profits to the creators and their heirs so long as the copyrights exist.
Sadly, it does tend to be the case. Our intellectual property rights laws and more so, court determinations. Almost ALWAYS favor corporations, the bigger the more favor.
Microsoft blatantly stole the "intellimouse" technology. Sure they lost in court and had to pay 1 million dollars to the inventing firm. But how many millions did Microsoft make from those mice?
Okay, but why do you require this of the heirs. But don't require it of the bulti-billion dollar corporations?
You realize that many antique and historically relevant firearms are destroyed in such buybacks. Truthfully, they should be made available for next to free to museums before they are destroyed.
The NRA has compromised many times, and repeatedly.
The Gun Control advocates on the other hand. Not so much. And they won't address basic concerns or look at alternatives.
SO CALLED PROBLEM: Gun Show Loophole (which is pseudo-lie for "private sales", which includes if you sell your old hunting rifle to your brother).
EASY SOLUTION: Allow private citizens who are selling a firearm in a private sale to call and run a background check for free.
"They have taken positions on drug prohibition, censorship, "precrime", "
Please cite an example...

They are not personal arms...

And why should we care about you then?
Why don't you go to his place and make him... ;-)

Thank you, I was unaware of that event...
You'd be surprised how much training many civilians have. Many go to the range more than officers.
