Trump Jr.'s Skittles Photo Taken By Former Refugee — And Used Without Permission - GMDino - 09-22-2016 http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/09/21/494854951/donald-trump-jr-used-skittles-photo-without-permission-from-former-refugee?utm_source=facebook.com&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=npr&utm_term=nprnews&utm_content=20160921 Quote:When Donald Trump Jr. compared Syrian refugees to poisoned Skittles, the condemnation was swift — critics called the tweet glib, dehumanizing, inaccurate, cruel. Those Trumps seem like wonderful people. ![]() RE: Trump Jr.'s Skittles Photo Taken By Former Refugee — And Used Without Permission - Rotobeast - 09-22-2016 What position does Jr. hold on his father's campaign committee ?

I believe he's just "running his father's business" while he runs for President. If he has an official role we won't find out until we find out how much he was paid for it. RE: Trump Jr.'s Skittles Photo Taken By Former Refugee — And Used Without Permission - Rotobeast - 09-22-2016 That's kind of what I was thinking. If they ever do divulge that, then I'd say the fellow in the story could have a good shot at acquiring some Trump dollars.

As with Trau keinem Fuchs auf grüner Heid und keinem Jud bei seinem Eid (Don't Trust A Fox in A Green Meadow Or the Word of A Jew), Der Giftpilz (The Poisonous Mushroom), also contains many signs pointing to the adoption of "Endloesung," the final solution that was officially established at the Wannsee Conference in 1942. RE: Trump Jr.'s Skittles Photo Taken By Former Refugee — And Used Without Permission - BmorePat87 - 09-22-2016 lol, some dude just googled "bowl of skittles" and made a meme online. RE: Trump Jr.'s Skittles Photo Taken By Former Refugee — And Used Without Permission - Belsnickel - 09-23-2016 To be fair, there have been memes similar in nature to this from both the left and right for a while, now. That isn't to say I don't agree with Mr. Bosnick, but there was this: ![]() So if we are going to go back to Der Giftpilz then we can't look at just one side.

Might just be a slight disconnect in their thinking there.... RE: Trump Jr.'s Skittles Photo Taken By Former Refugee — And Used Without Permission - michaelsean - 09-23-2016 Wait he stole a picture of a bowl of Skittles?

I find this sort of stuff troubling. The amount of stuff out there in an unrestricted creative commons capacity and you have to use copyrighted material without doing the legal thing first? Shows a lack of knowledge about the law, about business, and a certain amount of laziness.

Welcome to the entire Trump campaign in a nutshell. ![]() RE: Trump Jr.'s Skittles Photo Taken By Former Refugee — And Used Without Permission - Benton - 09-23-2016 (09-23-2016, 01:26 PM)michaelsean Wrote: Yeah this is way down on the list of troubling things. ![]() Stealing is stealing. If I'd gotten paid for every stolen photo and story over the years, I'd be a lot less broke now. Like HUGELY less broke. Which is part of my issue with Trump. If I walked into one of his properties, took the front door off and threw it in my car, I'd get arrested. If he steals someone's copyrighted material or intellectual property, then the only way to resolve it is a lawsuit which rarely ever is worth the time.

No. Granted, you're not going to get a judgement if they didn't, but even using it and not profiting from it is a copyright infringement.

Some state penalties may vary, but, generally (and with federal law), no. But proving it takes going to court and that takes attorneys. In my experience, most of the penalties get eaten up in attorney fees, so it's just a giant waste of time for writers, photographers, graphic designers, etc., to do more than have a friend who's an attorney send a free letter to the offender saying "cease or else." Plus, if you lose your challenge, then you end up paying out the several thousand dollars in attorney fees. Bigger companies have something to gain, such as a few years ago when music companies were tossing out huge lawsuits against music sharing. But individuals or small companies don't have much recourse outside of spending a lot on an attorney that they may not get back.
