I condone getting the job done by any and all means necessary. As our elected officials like to say, "all options are on the table."

Lets take this off the internet and break it down to unauthorized entry of property and theft.

If any of these guys came into my house and stole a single mini DV tape and I caught them in the act, I would shoot them where they stood, legally get away with it, and I would not feel any remorse for doing so. Even if I just caught them in my house making a copy of a mini DV tape, I would shoot them where they stood. Stay out of my property and we don't have a problem. Enter my property uninvited and you risk your life. This is a simple concept that is shared around the world by billions of people. It is my right, as it yours, to protect our property.

However, if they come into my online property to "steal" or "copy" the same video that was on that mini DV, my hands are tied. All I can do is send DMCA notices to remove it, while they just rename the file in whatever locker they are using at the moment and continue the game. So since I can not shoot them as I would if they were in my offline property, I support burning them to the ground any way possible. A severe reaction to their action. If they are not tough enough to play the game, don't play it. It's all fun and games until the script is flipped on you, as they are slowly finding out one at a time.

They used to hang pirates back in the old days for a reason.
