Comment Re:Damn Pedo Terrorists! (Score 1) 575

Sorry to tickle your sensibilities Chester.

I hate to burst your bubble but all people who have sex with children are technically pedophiles if they have sex because they are attracted to that child. I am not sure about the "myth" that you are stating. There is a subset of pedophiles that don't have sex with children but are sexually attracted to children, I am not talking about those people. I am strongly against prosecuting people for mind crimes.

I am not for violating anyone rights until they commit an actual crime. If you think you can look and not touch and you're one of the good ones, then all I can say is only time will tell the tale.

Your argument is lame since you could describe a pharmacist, nurse or doctor as drug dealer. I am not sure what finite point you are trying to make but I am sure that you understand the implicit meaning of what I am saying anyway.

What if it was not illegal to have sex with children Chester? Would you still look and not touch?

You have no inherent rights. You have to understand your rights are purely theoretical and can be usurped by a good argument and a bad judge, or a bad argument and a good judge on a bad day. You only have rights if you can successfully argue those exercise of rights in a court of law after they have been actively violated.

This is a very interesting experiment these companies are performing on consumers.
Can these companies push what they want us to use and succeed in business? My guess would be no; but companies can and do manipulate markets and government regulations in their favor all the time. Is the business at the mercy of the consumer or is the consumer at the mercy of the business?
Maybe AT&T and Verizon will try and make an argument that charging for bandwidth is good for consumers? Maybe high bandwidth is a threat to homeland security in some way?
Microsoft can sue anyone that has a GUI interface for patent infringement or can buy a company that might be a threat. This is kind of what Apple did to them when Microsoft first came out with Windows.
Who know at this point, it will be interesting to see what the future holds!
