LMAO! It's no wonder why Piracy is such a problem these days. It creates IDIOTS like Rick Cotton. I hope that not all the anti piracy crime fighters are this blatantly retarded. If they are, we have nothing to worry about, because they will be spending most, if not all their time trying to find the hole in the ground they think is their own ass.

I guess the toilet paper manufacturing will start complaining against piracy too... you know, people eat less popcorn therefore...

The next person to join in the lawsuits against piracy: Orville Redenbacher!

heres why not being a pirate would hurt children, if i dont download a movie for free that my children want to watch then i take them to the movies to watch it and it costs me around $70, i explain to my kids that if they want me to spend this money for them to go see a movie they will not get to eat for the next week, but small kids are stupid and dont understand that concept they want instant gratification. or as the responsible adult i am, i realise that kids are to stupid to make a descision of that caliber and tell them no they cant go it costs too much, then for the next week i have to listen to the kids pissing and moaning about said movie so i kick their asses and lock them in a room and spend all the money for food on prozac instead and they starve anyway.

people of america and the world download your movies it is for the good of our children, the MPAA want to see our children starved and beaten, those bastards.

crazy i know but its about as good an arguement as piracy hurting corn farmers.

tin23uk I could not agree more. personally, i don't have a big income, and spend most of what i earn on bills ect. if all my family and i did was sit at home counting the blades of grass, one if not all of us would end up killing each other. for the sake of humanity, and personal safety, download what you wish.

How about adding Dan Quayle for good measure lol

Geez, I don't know, man...Danny boy may not be able to spell, but he never said anything as stupid as what this Cotton guy keeps putting out.
UNBELIEVABLE!

As a farmer, this guy is nuts, first off popcorn is completly different than most agricultural corn variety speaking. second the only thing huring corn growers is the cost of corn now because the ethanol industry is completly buying every damn bushel they can get there hands on.

i dont know what you guys are talkin about.. i completely agree with the statement.

i hurt the corn growers by pirating... isnt that common knowledge? first i download a movie.. and then, the corn farmer dies a little inside.

heres another arguement for piracy, it would hurt rick cotton if we didnt download because we dont download ---> corn farmers dont get hurt -----> abc doesnt pay rick cotton out the ass to say stupid shit like piracy hurts cotton farmers, pesticide makers, pop corn machine makers, astronauts, dog trainers, trees so on and so on.

oh look now rick cottons broke cos he doesnt have anything to talk about and now he has to download too cos he cant afford to go to the movies.

and next ill think of a reason why not downloading hurts the eban tribe of borneo.

here is a bit of irony. I downloaded "Sicko" the new michael moore film on how wonderful our free health care in the U.S. is. after watching this movie, i started thinking about how piracy actually helps us. it allows us to use money that would have been spent at the box office, to be used on ridiculously expensive heatlh care (the topic of "sicko"), food (corn), medication, rent, child care, this list goes on and on.

here is an idea, MPAA, could you please take the billions of dollars you spend on anti-piracy, put it towards medical care, and the other things that would help the general public. Instead of trying to put people in jail, creating more debt to those who pay the taxes to support the imprisoned, you can help them. this way the "pirates" can afford to go out and get original copies of DVDs, go to the movies, buy corn, instead of having to pay insurance premiums to insurance companies who will only deny coverage to it's policy holders in order to make billions, which in turn forces the "policy holders" to pay unaffordable medical bills.

what an idiot

I would, but I can't afford to. The medical bills are to expensive. Please offer something constructive to say next time. At the very least, put some thought into your flames, and at least make them somewhat demeaning, and not so plain and boring.

that was funny as hell. "piracy hurts corn growers". i cant imagine how. he prob'ly didnt factor in the millions of people who dont really like popcorn all that much. or the people who can ONLY afford to pay for movie tickets and not popcorn. i figure piracy would help the corn growers because those who really do like popcorn can get 10 pounds of it for prob'ly cheaper than they would at the theaters. and anyway, i hear that popcorn isnt even the same kind of corn that the farmers grow. stupid people saying stupid things. at least it was funny.

oh well i guess we should all eat popcorn while watching our pirated movies at home, so rick cotton doesnt feel bad and we dont hurt any corn farmers. and while your at it better make sure you get some coke and a 16 year old spotty kid to serve it so as we dont hurt them either i think i covered all the bases. lol while we are at it we could pay a projectionist to switch on the dvd player a cleaning lady to clean the bathroom and someone to sell tickets at the living room door, and it would still be cheaper than a night out to the movies.

OK, for everyone who keeps repeating this "myth" ... If popcorn isn't "grown", then how is it "made"?

(NOTICE: This was sarcasm, which I realize doesn't always register with SOME people.)

There are many varieties of corn grown for different purposes. Popcorn is especially grown for "popping", then there is corn for cattle feed, ethanol, fresh "eating" corn, high fructose corn syrup, etc etc etc.

pop corn is made from the oven or microwave, duhhh... oooohh magic fairies!!!

of course popping corn is grown, unlike my earlier post suggests. the point i wanted to make is that popping corn isnt the corn that makes all the big dollars, which is what cotton was suggesting. he made it sound like popping corn is the only thing. the end all, be all of corn and that it is the primary cash crop of corn growers (farmers) now and FOREVER. and that makes him sound just as stupid (if not more) as the rest of us who say popping corn isnt grown.

you are right as hell about that one... i think i caught it but i'm not sure yet.

IMPORTANT UPDATE:
Piracy is hurting the government's mint! When people pirate, the developers don't make as much money so the government doesn't get as much in taxes so they can't afford to run the mint so there no more money. Oh wait, if theres no more new money, that would make the old money more valuable...

LOL

what a retard.

ok here is another reason why piracy is good it saves us money by putting corn farmers out of work then they don't clog the roads up with big slow tractors that make us late then have to speed to make appointment and get speeding tickets from the police

wow piracy really does save me money in more ways than one

The big bucks now seem to be going to subsidies for growing corn for ethanol. All the ranchers and dairies (who make great money from subsidies for notproducing milk) around here are ripping out pasture to plant corn. Must be better money to grow corn for a product that decreases your MPG, and costs more per gallon to grow than the price of gas. Which seems high enough to me. Corn produces 1 or two ears per stalk. Not a high efficiency crop, and requires lots of fertilizer. (Made from oil of course)

Like the Aswan dam in Egypt that blocks the silt, forces the farmers to put fertilizer on their crops and the production of fertilizer uses as much electricity as the output of the dam. Sometimes the bureaucracy doesn't think.

at movies or at home, rented or ripped i'm still eating my popcorn with pepsi :)

The only thing I love more than popcorn is the hole I put in the bottom of the popcorn bucket! SCORE!

ohhh, maybe piracy is better, cause if you look at it this way, movies = hands only, pirated movies at home = full on reverse cowboy, then hell yes, I'M A PIRATE FOR LIFE!

LOL, bad news for me :P!
