Whats with this protesting European Patenting Stuff?

I tried to back out of this on page one. But the people kept coming.
I do understand what you mean by comp a would not stop enforcing it because they would not get money anymore from the patents and die. But this is of course assuming the comp a is not making software X themselves. Which is highly unlikely.
I also understand what you mean by one company building a car for years then another one sueing them for power windows. I highly doubt that such an unethical attack will be allowed. The court will probably allow the company to stop putting the power windows in the car, or continue if they want to pay the patent fee.
I disagree with you about NEEDing software... but we will just have to agree to disagree on that one.
No... I do not think that the majority of people are educated and know what they are voting for. But those people are on the other side of the fence. So I don't even worry about it.
when you said whats wrong with protest. Just think that there are other poeple like me, who when they see people protesting. They think down on them for not finding a more civilized (for lack of a better word) way of doing what they want done.
But I am glad this thread is over. And my first post was FREAKIN harsh. I was just mad cus I wanted to see some update on the xboxmediaplayer... but no, they're protesting. Nothing I can bout it though. Just blowing off steam. I should of found a more conservative message board to do it in. Now people here will think less of me. But whatever, nothing I can do about. I'm over it.

nope, it all boils down to...
how do u feel about microsoft?
i dont care about ur political opinions, it just pisses me off to see someone who's well off be very self centered and uncaring for those who aren't. just because we dont have money doesn't mean we dont deserve it.
that's it from me.

no you didn't idiot. like the particular type of US loudmouth that you are you spouted a HUGE pile of OUTRAGEOUS RUBBISH and then told everybody else to shut up because they are wrong.
that is not the same as "backing out".
what u fucktard.
it's a shame the US is run by people like you, and it's an even bigger shame there's so many drones waiting to vote for them and take their places when they get old, crusty and grey.

Insert name here is a fucking loser! He screws goats, and his parents are retards that need to be shot blah blah blah typical troll garbage.
Well I'm done with this conversation now and because I dont want to keep the pointless flaming in these forums going I'm backing out now - hey I'm the good guy! If you keep posting you must *like* flame wars or something.
