Hawley needs to reconsider!

[Smackdown2019]

Cease and desist order was given to Senator Hawley last month and he has yet to comply over copyright infringement laws.

What might be the issue?

A national media photographer took that famous picture of the Senator with his raises fist before he was to vote against President Biden win over Trump. That photo is being sold by Hawley.

17 U.S.C. § 506(a), which provides that "[a]ny person who infringes a copyright willfully and for purposes of commercial advantage or private financial gain" shall be punished as provided in 18 U.S.C. § 2319. Section 2319 provides, in pertinent part, that a 5-year felony shall apply if the offense "consists of the reproduction or distribution, during any 180-day period, of at least 10 copies or phonorecords, of 1 or more copyrighted works, with a retail value of more than $2,500." 18 U.S.C. § 2319(b)(1).

My buddies thought and said that I was being outrageous calling them Nazis. I call all of them Nazis for simplicity. They’ve told me recently I was right.

9. As a former newspaper photographer, I take this kind of behavior personally

Maybe somebody should steal some of his stuff. Like his car or something

[Hassler]

11. Between this and his support of OKC bombers, he's building quite a resume.

12. Laws don't apply to "Patriots"

If you don't like it, go back to where you came from?

[groundloop]

13. He can't sell what isn't his.....

Whoever is "buying" that photo may as well just download it from the internet and save themselves a ton of money. (Of course the photo belongs to the photographer who captured the image, but right wingers aren't well known for doing what's right.)

14. Lock him up

[SergeStorms]

15. Laws don't apply to republicans.

Thats why they have absolutely no qualms whatsoever about breaking the law so often. They know they're only going to get a little bad press, if that, and they'll be free to go on with their law breaking lives.
