		<description>The difference amid recreational consumption and medical use of cannabis begs to be noticed. While I think that a responsible adult should have the right to use marijuana recreationally, I do believe, without doubt, allowing for an ill person use of a plant with a long history of medical value ought to be accepted and legal. Marijuana has a large potential as a medication and more awareness and acceptance is necessary. In Summary, legalize it!</description>

		<description>We are so quick to correct others , what a poor life it must be to be correct all the time , I do feel for you, I thought the laws were to protect , first of all who did the down loads , maybe her computer did it or her child prove it beyond a doubt , is that not what the law reads , soon you will be placed in jail for a crime and fined on someones say so!!!
  It is time to remove these lawyers and judges who make the laws read for the purpose they want to produce not the crime. If this was a rich person they would have only received a slap on the wrist.</description>

		<description>Same can be said for medical marijuana.Sure one faces arrest for using it.However I refuse to give up my quality of life due to Draconian Laws.Pot was made illegal,illegally with the Marijuana Tax Act of 1937 to protect Dupont Corp&#039;s interests.So many folks suffer needlessly,its time for a fresh approach.But with judges and juries involved in horrible outcomes such as this.I feel it&#039;ll never happen.Shame Shame</description>

		<description>wow. How do you begin a reply to a post that tries to draw an inspiration from Dr. King, a man fighting what can be described as &#039;socio-economic&#039; slavery with a woman who illegally downloaded music?

The fact is that this woman illegally downloaded music, no one is arguing that. No argument has been that she&#039;s innocent, only that the punishment is severe. That&#039;s not the RIAAs fault, or her fault, or the jury&#039;s or the judges.

The fact is that this woman could have settled like many others had, but she didn&#039;t. The RIAA wanted to get her not for her downloads, but the uploads. Her crim was only $24, but she helped perpetrate many times that by sharing the file with others.

The RIAA is not going to suck 1.9million from her. They tried to settle, she refused, they won in court. How is this whole situation not her fault? They&#039;ll revert to $5000 settlement, the family will move on.

Wake up and try using some journalistic practices when writing.</description>
