"Fair use" provision in copy right law says you can post items for the purpose of criticizing 'em. However, I don't have any idea what Jim Rob's agreement is with the AP and I'm not a lawyer. But I did stay at a Holiday-Inn once.

On a side note, I am waiting for the courts to make the scouts offer a pedophile merit badge.

That would be OK if they could collect 'em in a glass covered box filled with formaldehyde soaked cotton-balls and stuck to the back of the box by a large pin.

It isn't a merit badge. Just an optional badge they can earn in that council. If it catches on, it would be a temporary program like the "crime prevention" badge we had a few years ago.

Are you sure AP are link only? I don't see them on JimRob's Updated FR Excerpt and Link Only or Deny Posting List due to Copyright Complaints topic.

.....I'm surprised that they have Scouts in CA.....

Back in '97 I attended a training session at Philmont led by a BSA executive from California (LA). He on two occassions cried. The emotionalism was provoked by his sensitivity.

It was prety embarassing for those of us in the session.

Funded by and written by the MPAA.

About as useful as a Civics patch funded by the CPUSA.

Anytime I've tried posting an AP story even just an excerpt I got the dreaded Moderator warning screen say No, No, No; Musn't do that, it's an AP story an FR/Jim Rob has gotten yelled at cause AP's feelings was hurt.

Scouts also must choose one activity from a list that includes visiting a movie studio to see how many people can be harmed by film piracy.

Yeah, that should be a real eye-opener....
