I personally think that a decent society doesn’t let its federal judicial system become a tool for oppressing helpless people for no good reason.

Sorry you feel that’s an okay thing.

Guns talk louder than even money. If I was these RIAA pigs I will watch out.

I wonder, where are the missing link, the religious leaders, the local politicians, the labor unions. just to name a few groups, that could and should give moral and public support to the likes of Mr. Paladuk?

your argument might — might — hold water if this was the only kind of case written about, but most of these kinds of cases on p2pnet are “ordinary” people just like you

” The whole thing smacks of pulling at heart strings and choosing sophistry over argument ”

Kind of like the legal sophistry the RIAA uses, in addition to it’s complete control over the corporate media channels.

Besides,
I personally have never seen compassion as ‘tripe’.

‘ Given that the suits are ill-founded and spurious, does it matter if the “victim” has cancer or if they’re perfectly healthy? ‘

It kind of does actually.
It outlines the fact that they like to pick and choose victims
that have no way of being able to afford to fight back.
It emphasises the most glaring flaw in our so-called ‘ legal ‘
system.

Money talks, no matter what, regardless of right.

That sucks and all, but what does the medical condition of one on the business end of a lawsuit from the RIAA have to do with the lawsuit itself?

Given that the suits are ill-founded and spurious, does it matter if the “victim” has cancer or if they’re perfectly healthy?

The whole thing smacks of pulling at heart strings and choosing sophistry over argument, which wouldn’t be nearly so annoying if there weren’t plenty of ground to argue from without resorting to such tripe.

Is there a url where those amongst use who are saddled with a human soul (this condition naturally excludes anyone employed by the RIAA) may learn more of the unfortunate person; Mr. Paladuk ?
