Hey NR I've been trying to sift a few videos from msnbc recently but the sift says the embed codes are invalid. I notice that you've got a few embedded fine... is there something you do with the code to get it to work? Maybe I should be asking dag but if you can help it'd be much appreciated! Thanks, James.

Your video, Bible verses inscribed on rifle scopes used in Iraq - Maddow, has made it into the Top 15 New Videos listing. Congratulations on your achievement. For your contribution you have been awarded 1 Power Point.

You ought to be proudly displaying that Irish flag on your profile.

drugs and alcohol are categorized differently so that we dont mix them up. you cant go around calling weed an alcoholic beverage, can you?

alcohol is not a drug. drugs are drugs. plants are plants.

ps - your book doesnt mean shit to anyone but you. thanks for stopping by.

Alcohol not a drug, really?

It intoxicates - that's enough to qualify it as a drug in my book.

Not to mention the impaired judgement, loss of inhibition, bleary eyesight, puking and passing out

So would it be fair to summarise your argument as: "There's no room for an anarchic mini-economy inside a capitalist super-economy"?

Having just said what I did above... I've always been torn about filesharing in general and people trying to justify doing it.

I do it... but I know it's wrong really.

If I download music or a movie and I enjoy it, how is it right that I not be giving the artist compensation for that work?

Most people who copy stuff will say 'Yeah, but the artist doesn't get much anyway, it's the evil record/movie companies that get most of the money, so fuck them'.

Except that doesn't solve the problem does it? Just because you don't like the corporations, not getting any money to the artist doesn't solve a thing.

Other people say 'music/information should be free man'. Um... ok, but then how do those who make said music or information make a living? Hmmm, if they're not paid for the thing they spend time creating and others do enjoy consuming... how are they supposed to make money?

And if you say 'well, they should tour and make money that way', then get stuffed. I KNOW they CAN make money that way, and do, but there are those who produce music in ways that don't translate to live shows, and then it only works for those that are in the areas where the acts do tour. So you're saying it's ok for those outside those areas to consume the music for free and not give the artist anything just because they live in some area that bands don't tour? Riiight.

Definitely there's arguments for using filesharing better than it is, definitely there are arguments for throwing god awful DRM out the window, definitely there are arguments for looking at different ways of delivering music and movies to people, but just saying to all 'have at it' is not the answer either.

If you think you're entitled to music and movies and books for free (not lent, but to keep), and that the creators of those works deserve no compensation for their work, then you're a fool.

If you can think up a way to make everyone happy in this debate... then you're a genius!

lol. I see what you did there

Now I... I dunno, not having been there and not having seen all the facts, what role race played in that - but I think it's fair to say:

1. Any of us would be pretty angry
2. That the St. Louis police acted pretty stupidly in arresting somebody when there was already proof that they were in their own town hall.

Thanks for the encouragement. Sorry I was so late in getting back to you.

Just wanted to say that I read the original post on the Attenborough video and upvoted it. I don't actually agree with some of your points but mostly that comes down to my own personal beliefs and disputable logic (as all "logic" is in these discussions!). Mainly, I just want to commend you for speaking your mind. You're right, videosift has a very strong antitheistic base and unfortunately most of the people who do voice religious views (mainly Christian) do not voice them well and get crude before too long under the pressure of patronising, conceited atheists.

Thank you for posting a theistic view worth reading and I hope you continue to do so.

That's it. I'm annoyed now. I'm on a motherf***ing quest to be able to promote stuff.

Congratulations! Your comment has just received enough votes from the community to earn you 1 Power Point. Thank you for your quality contribution to VideoSift.
