Ok, you win. I’ll answer your question—I’d shoot him. If you had a point to make, let’s hear it . . . or is this one of those pretend-conservative-sophistry-exercises?

By the way, have you ever heard of the term “red herring?” Just curious.


My point was that few informed U.S. citizens trust the UN. We have very good reason not to.

The situation you described in your question is highly unlikely to happen to anyone who is not a celebrity (except when done by people who know the victim well). I recall several famous people filing lawsuits due to exactly what you described.

What I described is a common tragedy during UN missions. A family who is displaced by a natural disaster or a conflict find themselves victimized by their protectors. Often the girls (most very young) are shunned if they fall pregnant from the attack.

Cyber-squatting is not limited to celebrities. I am not (legally) entitled to create a website named cokeisit.uk, and post pictures of that Lohan creature snorting lines.

One other thing (you reminded me). Americans should have a strong scepticism of the U.N., for reasons that are obvious. Problem is, whenever someone (in this case, me) starts talking about a subject (such as IP) that requires cooperation between different states, the strawmen pile-up very quickly. "UN-lover?" My position on this legal matter implies that I approve of U.N. peacekeepers raping children? People need to be a little more serious.
