You take me seriously? How am I suppose to take you seriously. You are LITERALLY spouting nonsense. --"Misprison of a Felony" (18 U.S.C.A 4.). Misprison isn't even a word! The is no chapter 4 in title 18. http://www4.law.cornell.edu/uscode/18/pI.html
"Also, you can't be charged for committing the crime and also NOT STOPPING YOURSELF COMMITTING SAID CRIME! That would be double jeopardy, wouldn't it?" God no.... double jeopardy is being charged with the same crime twice. In other words, the prosecution doesn't get to appeal if they lose. And you can't even be charged with not stopping yourself from committing a crime (negligence crimes not withstanding). You'd just be charged with what ever crime you committed. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, August 09, 2004 10:34 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [freenet-chat] Re: [freenet-support] Showdown at the Freenode Coral Importance: Low Well, I had to respond to this after having it pointed out. --- Matthew Findley <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > This is not my position and I have already answered > this almost exact > situation. > http://article.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support/5067 > Try to keep up. > It's not a crime to know that a crime is happening > and failing to take > action. Wrong. A few minutes on google and I found this law: "Misprison of a Felony" (18 U.S.C.A 4.). Of course there is the little issue of meeting the elements of the crime, but that doesn't seem to be a big deal for you when it comes to Freenet. > It's a crime if you know your committing a crime and > fail to take action. LOL! So if you commit a crime, it's OK for others not to take action, but if YOU don't take action against YORSELF then you are breaking the law?! This statement is totally backwards. Also, you can't be charged for committing the crime and also NOT STOPPING YOURSELF COMMITTING SAID CRIME! That would be double jeopardy, wouldn't it? Do you still insist I take you seriouly? Don't answer! In the future I intend to exercise more restraint and will not reply to any posts by you no matter how tempted I am. > > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Monday, August 09, 2004 6:47 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [freenet-chat] Re: [freenet-support] > Showdown at the Freenode > Coral > Importance: Low > > > --- ZeZenonaPanoussisfrfreenetrovocation.net> wrote: > > >Yes, Mr Findley, your looping repetitions are very > >convincing. > >I have read them again and I am convinced, you are > >absolutely > >right.
