God damn hippies and their laws protecting the stupid! If someone's stupid enough to share a road with a drunk driver, it's their fault if they get killed! If someone's stupid enough not to prevent a robbery with intelligence and wit, and have all their valuable goods stolen because they didn't keep everything in a safe-house, so much the worse for them!
If this woman doesn't know how to keep her head inside the bus, her problem - no one should sue to bus company, the driver or, for that matter, her neck:
And, in a heartwarming finale, I hope I could show your argument is as invalid as this kid:
This picture is so cute though, even with Germans in it

Yes, because the way you stated it made an implication that you would have to register copyright to protect it and that no protection existed before registration. |
I don't know where you got that idea--I wrote that they would have to register to file infringement suits for $150,000 (statutory damages), which they do.

Section 106A applies only to "works of visual art," which are defined in Section 101 as follows:
quote: | A “work of visual art” is—
(1) a painting, drawing, print, or sculpture, existing in a single copy, in a limited edition of 200 copies or fewer that are signed and consecutively numbered by the author, or, in the case of a sculpture, in multiple cast, carved, or fabricated sculptures of 200 or fewer that are consecutively numbered by the author and bear the signature or other identifying mark of the author; or
(2) a still photographic image produced for exhibition purposes only, existing in a single copy that is signed by the author, or in a limited edition of 200 copies or fewer that are signed and consecutively numbered by the author. | (emphasis mine)
