blah, blah, blah...serves as what the "Declaration of Independence" calls "a long Train of Abuses and Usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object".

Get a little historical perspective will you? The legislature denying you the legal right to download all the music you want for free hardly ranks up there with some of the egregious acts of King George preceeding the American Revolution.

You're becoming more and more laughable with each post.

And you have the right to laugh! I will not hold it from you.

In the Declaration of Independence: "HE has constrained our fellow Citizens taken Captive on the high Seas to bear Arms against their Country, to become the Executioners of their Friends and Brethren, or to fall themselves by their Hands."

A harsh measure, yet this produced with others compelling reasons for full rebellion -- still only a full rebellion by a minority of the public. See how difficult it is to raise public scorn and practical rebuke against tyranny?

Like the frog boiled in the pot, a greater danger of tyranny may exist from a series of small, less horrible, impositions. The abuse of this grant and the corruption of legislature that it demonstrtates falls through the safety net our current Judiciary uses. It falls to us, the public, to achieve remedies and stay the march of tyranny.
