If you fetch 20 copies of some GPl'ed software, you can give away _those_ 20 copies in the manner you wish. But for each and every one of those you do so, you have to decrement the counter. Give one, you keep 19. Until you get to 0. But if you have one copy, and you distribute copies of it, you're making a copyright violation. In the earlier case, you may still be sued (and reading the history of your posts here would give a quite interesting character report) for trying to work around copyright law, so maybe still liable. But that's hypothetical. All you say is simply laughable, if it didn't smell of bad intention.
