Why does the FBI rail about music piracy, but ignore piracy of photographs?

Flickr Photograph

Isn’t it interesting that the FBI and everyone else is so uptight about copyright violation of music? Yet almost no one anywhere has respect for the “© All Rights Reserved” labeled photographs we amateur photographers upload to Flickr and elsewhere. I have found my © photographs taken from my Flickr photo-stream and used commercially without my permission, nor even credit given, at Ancestry.com (The Generations Network, Inc.) and Icanhascheezburger.com (LOLCATS).

Amateur photographers such as myself upload photographs to share with others. We do not charge anything for you to view our photographs. We are not in the photography business; we just enjoy taking photographs and sharing them. We do not enjoy having those photographs stolen and used commercially by Internet businesses.

Even though it is against copyright law to download our copyrighted photographs and then to pass them on to others as your own, with no credit to the original creator, it is rampant on the Internet. Sites such as Ancestry.com and Icanhascheezburger.com profit monetarily from our photographs that we never offered for sale. Those sites allow derivative products to be made from them, and then they claim ownership of our photographs and post warnings that it is illegal to steal “their” photographs, as both Ancestry.com (The Generations Network, Inc.) and Icanhascheezburger.com (LOLCATS) do at their sites.

Ancestry.com (The Generations Network, Inc.) operates behind an expensive subscription wall, so that most Flickr members will never find their photographs that have been illegally uploaded there. While Flickr members allow their photographs to be viewed for free, when they appear on the Ancestry.com site, one must pay a subscription fee to view them.

After performing all of the legal requirements that Icanhascheezburger.com (LOLCATS) required before they would remove my photograph from their commericial site, someone has advised me that they continue to brazenly store my photograph at their Wordpress.com server here: http://icanhascheezburger.files.wordpress.com/2008/12/funny-pictures-cat-has-hired-a-substitute.jpg . Someone else has it stored at the Photobucket site.

Don’t Fire David Letterman! There is the First Amendment and there is freedom of speech.

If Governor Sarah Palin decides to accept David Letterman’s “sorry” apology that is her privilege. But Sarah Palin has no authority to accept David Letterman’s “sorry” apology on behalf of all girls and women. Most American women are sick and tired of the misogynists amongst us and we should begin to illuminate exactly who they are, such as David Letterman, and include the names of women who support their pitiful sexist antics, such as Margaret Carlson, Joy Behar and Arianna Huffington.

As consumers, as citizens, we don’t have to buy this stuff; we don’t have to watch their shows, we don’t have to watch the Miss USA Pageant; we don’t have to buy Playboy; we don’t have to support their shows or like “The View,” or any of them if we don’t want to.

The Video

UPDATE: Add Bill Maher to the anti-women list of hateful misogynists amongst us: Bill Maher Makes Letterman’s Child Rape Jokes Look Like Nursery Rhymes. Yes, on the very day that David Letterman offered his “Sorry Apology,” Bill Maher ridiculed all the Palin daughters with sex jokes 1000% worse than anything that Letterman said. According to Bill Maher, these jokes are “harmless.” Do I add him to the “List of Male Misogynists” or to the “List of Female Self-Loathers?”

Don’t Fire David Letterman! David Letterman is “smarmy, smug, and seriously un-funny.” Although he is a tasteless and crass comic, he is only one tenth as disgusting as Bill Maher. No one should demand they be fired. Neither should Don Imus have been fired, but he was done in by the very reverend shake-down artists, Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson.

The Divine Comedy minus Ronald Reagan

How interesting that so many world celebrities were included in the “Famous People Painting.” Why there’s Bill Clinton, but where is President Ronald Reagan? Don’t both looking, as he was omitted! Who was a greater influence on world history? Was it Bill Clinton and the infamous blue dress, or Ronald Reagan and the Fall of Communism? Was it Bill Clinton who saved his own hide, or Ronald Reagan who saved millions of humans from the degradation of slavery? It’s okay, Margaret Thatcher WAS included. Bill Clinton has his beloved saxophone, but I have no idea why he is holding a peeled banana aloft. Or is that a cigar?

When is Water-Boarding Good? When used against Pro-life Christians, but only if they are drowned at the same time.

That’s right folks. Although America’s Progressive Liberals have proclaimed water-boarding to be “Torture” when used against America’s terrorist enemies, the Pro-Choice movement has advocated the use of water-boarding against Pro-Life Christians, as long as the water-boarding results in drowning. That is because Liberal America considers Pro-life Christians to be the real enemies of their Liberal America nation. That is why children “of color” are being taught by Planned Parenthood to murder other Americans. Remember, water-boarding is supposedly “Torture,” but forcible drowning, as demonstrated to the children in this video, is still “MURDER” in America.

Watch as Planned Parenthood water-boards and drowns (they call it “Aqua-sliding”) a Christian because he teaches abstinence and “dresses funny.” You will see peaceable demonstrators at an abortion clinic shot and killed en-mass by Planned Parenthood. Watch as they water-board a U.S. Senator until he agrees to support Planned Parenthood. If you watch until the end, when the credits roll, you will see Planned Parenthood shoot a U.S. Army helicopter out of the sky. It is proof beyond belief that the violence of abortion practiced at abortion clinics, against vulnerable women and the innocent unborn, promotes more violence against all Americans.

This video from Planned Parenthood of San Francisco was funded by American taxpayers who give them at least $250,000 every year. Planned Parenthood’s Superhero For Choice kills pro-life Christians and abstinence educators in her never-ending quest to make America safe for abortion. The cartoon video’s message to youngsters “of color” is that white people are evil Christians and Planned Parenthood is their protector. Abort your babies “of color” now! If you wait, it will be too late, for they will be born into this wicked nation that water-boards its enemies.

Why is David Letterman still stalking Sarah Palin? Must be Unrequited Love, poor miserable pervert. Sarah Palin was in New York to do charity work. News reports revealed that she was accompanied by her 14-year-old daughter. That is the daughter that David Palin “joked” about, saying the little girl was knocked-up in the seventh inning, in the presence of her mother. That is sick and perverted.

What keeps David Letterman, the unfunnyman, going, when he has lower ratings than Glenn Beck or Bill O’Reilly and he was passed over for Leno, O’Brien, Fallon, Kimmel, Ferguson, and Kilborn? CBS loves him because he’s LIBERAL all the time, and never makes any jokes about the Obamas. Imagine - he pokes fun at Sarah Palin for looking like a “slut” yet ignores First Lady Michelle Obama’s outfit at London’s Westminster Abbey, of glue-gunned orange, purple and yellow flowers about her hips.

UPDATE: Sarah Palin Accepts Letterman’s Sorry Apology, but will women of America be so eager to forgive him? “I never thought it was anybody other than the older daughter, and before the show, I checked to make sure in fact that she is of legal age, 18″ ~~David Letterman. (Translation: It’s A-okay to joke about an 18-year-old daughter getting “knocked-up” by a baseball player in the presence of her mother. It’s fine to label her as a prostitute for a whore-monger, because her mother is a Republican.) See American Sharia Law for Conservative Women.

Gives David Letterman License to Ridicule Her as a Slut and Whore.

Bristol Palin’s crime against society is not that she became pregnant and birthed a child out of wedlock. Bristol Palin’s crime against society is that she “CHOSE” to NOT abort her “inconvenient” baby.

Because, at the age of seventeen, she chose to forego the rite of Baptism by Abortion, the National Church of the Secular Left has deemed that Bristol Palin must live out the remainder of her earthly days under “American Sharia Law for Conservative Women,” the law of the land for backward, uneducated girls and women who are too dumb to abort their unwanted or less-than-perfect babies. American Sharia Law decrees that she travel life’s road with the Scarlet “A” blazoned upon her chest which licenses all lecherous late night comics such as David Letterman, their God-given rights to humiliate her night after night on national television, to fantasize about her being “knocked up” by athletes while her mother is looking on, as David Letterman described her fourteen-year-old sister, and to advertise her as a prostitute for whore-mongers like Elliot Spitzer, as David Letterman did.

American Sharia Law licenses to Liberal women their God-given right to applaud David Letterman and to themselves ridicule the teenager as “a joke,” as Joy Behar of “The View” explained. “I know, but they traipse the kid out as — she’s a walking punchline! They preach abstinence and then she gets knocked up. That’s the joke.” Responding to David Letterman’s rape jokes about a fourteen-year-old, Margaret Carlson informed MSNBC viewers that because Sarah Palin “paraded” her children on stage at the Republican Convention, they should be considered “fair game” for personal attacks. Ariana Huffington said the same thing, insinuating that Sarah Palin should have stayed home and hid her pregnant daughter from public view. That is American Sharia Law that ALL Conservative and Traditional women are subject to in this age of the National Church of Secular Liberalism.

Here are prominent American women who describe the children of a Conservative woman as deserving of David Letterman’s humiliating Rape and Prostitute Jokes!

Bristol Palin had another choice available, which almost all other American girls choose. Everyday, pregnant seventeen-year-olds make visits to abortion clinics to rid themselves of any evidence that they were ever “knocked-up,” as David Letterman so crudely describes it. By partaking of that Liberal Sacrament of Passage, those young women escape the horrors of American Sharia Law and are considered by the National Church of the Secular Left to be as pure and virginal as Mother Mary. They are granted the right to live in Liberal America without being labeled “sluts” and without the sexual abuse and humiliations that American Sharia Law forces upon Traditional women who give birth as God intended. Those women who have been sanctified by the shedding of their own aborted child’s blood in the Rite of Abortion, may have promiscuous sex and pregnancies ad infinitum and never be degraded to wear the Scarlet A. It is the Blood Sacrament that almost all American men demand of their impregnated women. After all, it is the law of the State Church of Secular Liberalism.

These non-sanctified girls are not Liberals, therefore they are not really women in the eyes of the Liberal ruling class who see them as some sort of lower caste creature that has earned the degradation of American males. Perhaps, if they are lucky, America’s Secular Liberal Church will permit these Sharia-governed females to become Flight Attendants.** David Letterman has told us that American males consider these lower caste “slutty” working women who serve and protect the traveling public, to be just one step above the caste of prostitutes. Who but a slut would want to perform such traditional and menial work in Liberal - Progressive America?

American Sharia Law also deems that ALL children of Conservative women stand unprotected against any chauvinistc verbal assaults or sexual abuse that any male pervert wants to commit against them. As cited above, this rule has been reinforced by prominent American spokeswomen, including journalists Margaret Carlson, Ariana Huffington, and television pundit Joy Behar. American Sharia law visits the sins of bad mothers upon their innocent children. Joy Behar and Margaret Carlson have explained this using “bad mother” Governor Sarah Palin as their example. Because Governor Palin abuses her children by traveling cross-country with them in tow, gives everyone, under American Sharia Law, the right to punish those children with any kind of attacks, even to label those children as “sluts” and “whores.” These women, Behar and Carlson, and others, have said that Governor Palin’s fourteen-year-old daughter deserves to be the target of degrading sexual insinuations by late night comics such as David Letterman and to be humiliated by all perverted men who wish them to be raped by a baseball player. And of course, such young girls should be considered prostitutes by David Letterman and any other man, as what other opportunities will Liberals ever allow these unaborted children from the wombs of bad mothers?

**Other working class women (known as ‘White Trash’ in Liberal Speak) who have been demeaned by David Letterman as looking like “slutty” Sarah Palin, have been “the waitress at the coffee shop who draws a little smiley face on your check;” models for LensCrafters; “… Sarah Palin … looks like the lady in the dental office who gives you the keys to the restroom. Sarah Palin looks like the weekend anchor on Channel 9. She looks like the hygienist who makes you feel guilty about not flossing. She looks like the relieved mom in a Tide commercial. She looks like the lady at the bakery who yells out, ‘44! 44! 45!’ Sarah Palin looks like a real estate agent whose picture you see on the bus stop bench. Sarah Palin looks like the lady who has a chain of cupcake stores. Sarah Palin looks like the mayor of a small town that’s banned dancing.” David Letterman’s quotes about “slutty” American working women are from the ChicagoTribune.com.

CBS has a Feedback Form online where they want you to tell them what you think. Go for it: Tell us what you think!

This is the comment I sent to CBS:

“Hall of Shame” Companies that support debasement of women and sexual perversion of children. CBS heads the list for its support of David Letterman and his woman-hating CBS show.

  • The Olive Garden
  • Mars M&M Candy
  • Kellogg’s
  • Hellmann’s Mayonnaise
  • eBay
  • Intel
  • Lexus
  • TV.Com
  • On the Border Restaurants
  • CBSsports.com
  • JohnFeida.com
  • DiTech
  • Earn My Degree
  • True Credit by Trans Union
  • Bowflex

Why are CBS and David Letterman’s Advertisers on the “Women’s Hall of Shame?” Because they are obviously anti-women and anti-children for their support of David Letterman’s late night TV show.

UPDATE: On Thursday night’s show David Letterman and his guest Denzel Washington proclaimed that joking about Barack Obama’s big ears would be out-of-line. Obviously, Letterman and CBS find that child rape jokes are funnier and more profitable for their advertisers.

  • Does Kellogg’s Support the Statutory Rape of 14 year-olds? Kellogg’s! Maker of cereals for children supports David Letterman?
  • Does Olive Garden Restaurants Support the Statutory Rape of 14 year-olds and debasement of women? Is it not the women of America who decide to take their young children to those restaurants?
  • What about Mars M&M Candy - why would Mars Candy, maker of America’s favorite candy bars and M&M candies support sexual exploitation of children? Inquiring minds want to know.

    UPDATE: I heard from this Letterman sponsor today:

    We are writing in response to your recent communication which objects to the placement of advertising on David Letterman. We appreciate your concern and thank you for taking the time to contact us.

    While we do not “sponsor” television shows, we do contract for commercial time months in advance for those programs which we feel effectively reach our consumers. As a matter of policy we make every effort to avoid programs containing exploitative examples of ethnic, racial, religious or sexual stereotyping. We apologize if we were unsuccessful in this instance, and we will share your comments with our advertising agencies.

    Our loyal consumers are very important to us, and we thank you for taking the time to bring this to our attention.

    Have a great day!

    Your Friends at Mars Snackfood US

Please don’t demand that CBS fire David Letterman. That would make things much worse for young girls in America. David Letterman’s audience of sexist drunks, crackheads, stoned potheads, and women-haters would have no appropriate late night entertainment and would then pose grave threats of rape and molestation for little girls.

The Apology of a Real Misogynist and a Probable Sexual Pervert

I would never even contemplate a joke about your 14-year-old daughter getting knocked up by a 35-year-old athlete, as that would be rape of course. I was joking about your 18-year-old daughter getting knocked up, and that is okay as that is not rape, but just plain old promiscuous sex which all young girls are wild for.

It’s okay America, because the Real Misogynist and Probable Sexual Pervert has a national television show on CBS and the following advertisers who obviously support David Letterman’s pernicious and bigoted views of women and children.

  • The Olive Garden
  • Mars M&M Candy
  • Kellogg’s
  • Hellmann’s Mayonnaise
  • eBay
  • Intel
  • Lexus
  • TV.Com
  • On the Border Restaurants
  • CBSsports.com
  • JohnFreida.com
  • DiTech
  • Earn My Degree
  • True Credit by Trans Union
  • Bowflex

(List from HillBuzz.org)

Why is David Letterman a “probable sexual pervert?”

Because any man who would make jokes about a fourteen-year-old girl or an eighteen-year-old girl getting “knocked-up” by a thirty-something athlete is just that — a pervert, in my opinion. The same goes for any man who would make jokes about young girls being prostitutes. It is not funny; it is unforgivable. But I guess if you are not a women, you just would not understand how hurtful are David Letterman’s jokes about Child Rape and his vulgar humiliations of women as “slutty” and “knocked up.”

Know any good woman-hating, or child rape jokes? Sell them online to David Letterman of CBS. He is paying $100 a pop. Go for it!

UPDATE: Michelle Malkin has written a letter to David Letterman, Pervert.

Poor Dave. Forced Into a Shotgun Marriage at His Advanced Age. What a Pity!

It was too, too sickening. Julia Roberts’ fawning and teasing 62-year-old David “The Lecher” Letterman on what had prompted America’s most celebrated woman-hater to tie the knot. “I don’t know if I can look you in the eye anymore…” she told him. “Last time I saw you, you were single and then I, like, hypnotized you in my white suit or something and you went off and married Regina.Oh, it was ME, ME, ME, Julia Roberts, who motivated old Dave to sneak out and secretly marry someone he had, for many, many years avoided marrying.

Well … Ms. Roberts, flatter yourself as you may, but YOU had nothing to do with David Letterman’s “shotgun” marriage. Neither did his bride, Regina Lasko, as she had tried and failed in the past to get him to the alter. It was Governor Sarah Palin who came gunning for him and FORCED him kicking and screaming to the alter. Dave was not a happy camper.

Since Sarah Palin appeared on the political scene, David Letterman has been having a misogynist’s dream ridiculing both her and her seventeen-year-old daughter for not aborting their “undesirable” babies, as any self-respecting Liberal woman would have done. He became especially obsessed with placing the Scarlet A upon the breast of Governor Palin’s young, underage daughter, whom David Lettermen lampooned as “knocked up.” Yes, you’ve got that right. David Letterman, a sixty-something third-rate comic labelling an underage girl as a slut for getting pregnant. As if the young girl did not already have enough problems, her pregnancy was the target of David Letterman’s vile lechery, night after night on national CBS television.

All the while that David Letterman was condemning Bristol Palin for getting pregnant, or “knocked-up” as was his usual description, he never once saw himself as he really was. He was never able to see his own reflection in a mirror, for if he had he would have seen that he was the superior “male” pot calling the slutty “female” kettle black. David Letterman had “knocked-up” one of his own employees six years prior, and she too refused to get an abortion. How about them apples? Poor Dave. He never once realized what a hypocrite he was until “friends” started pointing it out to him.

Not only his friends, but soon his enemies who were pro-women and supporters of Sarah Palin, began seeing him as the hypocrite he was for what he had been doing to the young Palin daughter. While he was condemning Bristol Palin to wear the Scarlet A about her neck, lecherous David Letterman was getting lots of laughs from CBS’s audience of drunken and stoned twenty-year-old women-haters just by mentioning the Palin women.

So … one day, tired of being labeled a hypocrite, Old Dave sneaked off with his former “knocked-up” employee and her “out-of -wedlock” five-year-old child and had an official marriage ceremony performed. Looming over Old Dave with her moose-hunting shotgun to his head was Sarah Palin, the unofficial Maid of Honor. Later, David Letterman came to his senses and realized what had happened to him. After all these years of bachelorhood he had been forced into a marriage that he had never intended, to someone who was his definition of a slut who got “knocked-up.” This was a tragic state of affairs for an avowed chauvinist pig.

Knowing that his marriage was totally the fault of the Palins, as soon as he arrived back from his supposed secret honeymoon, off he went on the Palins. That is when he started making fun of the fourteen-year-old Palin daughter. She was not even pregnant, so he made up jokes about her being “knocked up” by a prominent athlete and serving as a prostitute for a former governor of New York.

David Letterman got lots of laughs from a CBS audience of sexual perverts when he described a fourteen-year-old child being raped by a male athlete while she was at a baseball game with her mother, who apparently looked the other way. (The Video) When complaints came in to CBS and Letterman’s advertisers, including Mars M&M Candy, Lexus, Kellogg’s, Downey, The Olive Garden, Hellman’s Mayo, and others about the harm being inflicted upon American women and children by David Letterman’s trivializing rape of a child, the comic, in a brazen show of contempt, followed up by repeating every one of the offensive jokes and more on a following national broadcast. CBS knows that David Letterman is a misogynist bigot, but as long as he is not a conservative misogynist bigot, that is A-okay with CBS.

What kind of America do we have now when a late night “dirty old man” comic jokes about a prominent athlete raping a fourteen-year-old child? What kind of culture do we have when his audience laughs uproariously at this portrayal of perversion because the child referred to is the daughter of a Republican woman governor? It should be unacceptable behavior as it is ABUSE of a CHILD … A WOMAN CHILD! Why would any woman, even a Democrat woman, laugh at this? The daughter who accompanied Governor Sarah Palin to the Yankees game, the one who David Letterman is most cruelly ridiculing — was born in 1995, hence the target of David Letterman’s humiliation is a girl of only thirteen or fourteen years old.
