Dear GNUser,
you should really learn to state your opinion in a short way; just the most
important points.
I read your long text this time, but I won't do it twice.
I read your insult; you called me an asshole, and this is enough to
disqualify you;
well, now to the topic.
First, let me express my thoughts about your story as a physicist:
you made a observation, but you conclude the wrong things.
The fate of the three families you mentioned is very sad;
Really, I wished they had experienced a better fate.
But your conclusion is: the law wanted to protect those people and the guys
who
shared the stuff are guilty for the ruin of the families.
Actually, the oposite is true.
Your families didn't know better, but they tried to make money with a system
people refuse to use.
Think about a world in which the law would allow people to share the copies
they buy.
Think about your families as shop owners who sell those copies.
Think about an anonymous donation system which let us give money to the
artist.
Your families could produce high quality dvds of the movies for fair prices,
since there are no big
blockbuster companies charging extremly high fees.
I would buy copies from this shops, and I think many people would do it, too.
After watching the movie,
I would donate an appropriate amount of money directly to the artist.
This is a system I don't refuse to use.
I want artists being able to live and eat.
I'll tell you a story, too (but way shorter than you would tell it):
Many restaurants in our city closed.
They made good, high quality food and the owners were friendly. But no one
came to eat.
People stayed at home, ate there; are they criminals?
You call yourself a GNU user.
Take a look at the opinion of GNU:

So I'm not the only "asshole" in here.
And concerning my "negative" attitude towards your posts:
I will not stop stating my opinion. Until know, I don't like what I've heard
from you.
You come along, talking about your different and special opinion which
consinsts of bare nonsense, like
producing proprietary software isn't bad, or sharing ruins families and is
like attacking ships.
You're screaming around all the time and if someone says something against
your opinion, you become insulting and personal.
I think you do harm to the GNU project when carrying this name.
