I'm sure you were kidding, but it's comments like this makes the general public at large ignore people like you. So don't complain later when things don't go your way.
One important point that you forgot to make is that those are all violations of the law. The right to protest does not give you the right to break the law.
Like this won't be hard to fool. Give your phone to a friend that *is* going to the school event. Or any number of a million different ways. Kids are very innovative.
No I wasn't trolling. I'm saying that music to me is not worth paying for. If I can't get it for free, then I don't want to listen to it. An analogous situation is books. Would it be unreasonable for me to say I will only read books I can get at the library or free through some other means.
Now, I do pay for music in some forms. I buy tickets to concerts and other performing arts. I buy DVDs for their music sometimes. But those are experiences that I'm paying for, not just music.
BTW, I am a programmer, but I will probably never pay for software again either (more GPL, less stealing). Figure that one out.
In that case, it depends on how you have it packaged. If you have half an ounce all in one bag, you probably don't have the intent to distribute. If you have half an ounce in 4 eigths bags, then you're in trouble.
The difference being that usually when the US government wastes money, it is still putting it into the US economy. When the WTO wastes money, my taxpayer dollars go to some degenerate on the other side of the planet.
Yes, I do understand how the World Banks works. And if you would do some research into history, you'd see how many US taxpayer dollars have ended up in dictators and warlords' hands through World Bank deals. I'm not saying it doesn't do some good, but the US wastes an aweful lot of money on it.
Why do I care if the WTO equally screws over other countries? All I care about it is it hurting the USA. If you punch some other kid before you punch me, it doesn't make it hurt any less.
What is the alternative? Governments actually acting in the best interests of its own citizens rather than worrying about others?

All of you.
It's a hell of a lot harder to change things from the outside than it is from the inside.

Yes and Yes. Where do you park your car? Where do you live? I'll be right over.
No shit, this guy must be a real fucking moron!
Despite my previous message, this is correct.
Let me acquaint you with the phrase on average... nah, you're too fucking stupid.
Yeah they're free to take a huge portion of your income and give it to others.

I'm with you, Fuck the protestors!
Mandrake is French? Fuck them then. Debian here I come...!
On the contrary, think of all the larger PDA and smaller mini-laptops coming out.
Try it not full screen, say 640x480.

I just went to your site skint.shef.ac.uk which doesn't render correctly at all on IE6. If you reply back here, I'll send you a screenshot.
That's why it's called the Bulk Mail folder and not the Spam folder. Mailing lists are bulk mail.

So then why did you bother to post and annoy us you dumb fuck?
Nice anecdotal evidence. I was speaking generally. I've seen statistics on this recently, but I can't remember where.
