Default copying

Am sick and tried of people saying on tv that copying dvd,mp3,etc funds terrorist and war.

9/11 on the usa was,nt because of someone copying dvd,etc and the same goes for the london bombing.

The reason london was attacked was iraq and not someone copying.

Calm down and stop watching too much TV, the media is always trying to take everyone for a ride, depends who gets on the band wagon.

Hey Michael I'm from the US, and as a matter of fact orignally from NewYork about an hour outside of ground 0 (whats left of the twin towers)

I agree, I find it offensive when statements like that are made. Downloading and making illegal copies does not fund any one. As a matter of fact, here in the US its a common commercial that says that every time your purchase an illegal substance you are funding terrorism. Then again , when was the last time Columbia or Jamaica attacked the US??????

I can,t see how that is true. Am from the uk and the london bombing was because of illegal copying. Am sad what happend with 9/11 and london.

but i disagree with you there. I see teenagers on carboot in the uk selling illegal movies. But how can you say they are terrorism. We all must be then if everyone is doing it.

If you check the news in the uk the london bombing was over iraq and what they are doing to there people.
