Copyright is COPY WRONG right in Times Square? Mayor DeLousio Strikes Again

"All I know about the mayor is that he's freakishly tall," said David Letterman. And that's all Dave wanted to know. Unlike Giuliani and Bloomberg, Mayor DeLousio was not invited to "The Late Show." Dave was not amused, and would soon walk away from New York City forever.

Aside from being freakishly tall, Mayor DeLousio has turned out to be dishonest and obnoxious. Or rather, moreso than during the campaign itself, when he played the race card shamelessly, parading his black wife and black children, and promulgating the mythology that he's 100% Italian (when his REAL last name is German).

He promised the FIRST thing he'd do in office was free the horses from their pathetic drudgery of clomping through noisy Central Park so that tourists could stop and smell the manure.

Another thing that people wanted him to do was CLEAN UP TIMES SQUARE. The area that Giuliani had turned over to Disney, with the promise of a clean (if expensive) area for families to visit, has been taken over by Disney copyright thieves. And coarse, obnoxious painted women, most of them illegal aliens.

But let's concentrate on the COPYRIGHT THIEVES. The Internet's disrespect of copyright and intellectual property has extended into the real world in a very peculiar and disgusting way: grotty jerks in unlicensed costumes are pushing around tourists.

New York City is supposed to be the #1 tourist destination in the world. Not under DeLousio.

New York City is supposed to be the home of all the big corporations, and most assuredly, there are offices for Disney, D.C. Comics, Warner Bros., Seseme Street and Marvel Comics. And yet, these companies get no respect. Their most valuable products are waddling around in Times Square for nickels and dimes, harassing tourists and making Times Square uglier than it's ever been. Mayor DeLousio won't do anything about it.

Here's the article in the NY POST. Meet you after the break.

What is the point of having less car traffic in Times Square, and all the gaudy tourist-traps, if the tourists are being harassed?

What is the point of COPYRIGHT when it isn't being used to combat this problem?

HOW DO YOU STOP THIS OUTRAGE IN TIMES SQUARE?

It isn't by being a big fat-headed block-headed wimp like Mayor DeLousio.

It isn't by declaring that painted women should have free areas in Times Square to ply their tax-free cash whoring.

It isn't by telling parents they're supposed to explain to their kids why it's NOT a good idea to make money by shaking your crayola'd maracas and demanding money, and wearing a thong that practically shows off your hemorrhoids.

It's by saying: GET OUT OF HERE. Painted up or semi-naked women prowling around for photo ops is prohibited. Its not about freedom of speech. It's about sanity.

As for the cartoon characters and comic book characters, that's easy. REAL easy, if you're not a block-headed moron like Mayor DeLousio.

You say: "These are COPYRIGHTED AND TRADEMARKED CHARACTERS and you can NOT use them without a signed authorization, notarized and licensed."

Show up in Times Square in a Disney outfit without Disney's permission, and you have it confiscated. PERIOD.

We've seen over the past generation, ever since the Internet arrived, a disdain for COPYRIGHT and INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY and TRADEMARK. What has it led to? Shut down bookstores, record stores, DVD rentals, movie theaters, etc.

It's led to cheap crap reality shows on TV. It's led to crappy books by pudgy imbeciles like E.L. James. It's led to dumbed down movies that all look alike, all loaded with big screen special effects to get people to stop staring at their cellphones.

We are breeding a nation that stays home.

Going into Times Square and being assaulted by money-grubbing immigrants is a disgrace.

What puts an end to it? A mayor who isn't a big dumb obnoxious asshole.

And LAW. COPYRIGHT and TRADEMARK LAW.
