Is this a cyber-Abbie Hoffman kind of thing? Tell the Hippies that they won the "Freedom" war, and it's called the Internet.

Re: Re: Steal This Thread

is it lined with gold?

No, but it is unique, and therefore one of a kind, and therefore very valuable. Right?

Plus you are on it.

 

[DannyBoyUK]

Is it going up for an open auction ?

 

[TWB]

No.

I will start another thread entitled "buy this thread" for that.

thanks.

Who is the owner of this thread ?

I ask because theft requires several elements,,,

dishonest
appropriation
of property
belonging to another
with the intention of permanently depriving


If however the owner gives his consent to the appropriation, there is not thought to be any dishonesty. Given that you asked us to steal it, it is actually not possible to obey that instruction since the very request negates lack of consent by the owner - unless the owner is someone other than you.......

Like Abby Hoffman's book, it belonged to someone else. Probably that capitalist Laurel. I just gave it the creative energy. She owns the site.

 

[DannyBoyUK]

In which case - could she ever be permanently deprived of it ?

The most that any of us could surely commit, therefore is attempted theft !

Good point. But.. now you want someone to steal me??? I'm confused.

 

[TWB]

I might steal you.

 

[J.B.]

I might let you.

I am a hairy baboon.

With me as your lawyer I would get that confession ruled inadmissable under section 76 of the 1984 Police and Criminal Evidence Act

Only problem is she is in the States.

But she would still likely wiggle out of it.
