    Dudley is a dumbass, plain and simple. Ignorance is a poor defense.

    What if you found a copy of Steven Kings Cujo online with no author or copy right info on it? Is it right for you to slap your name on that and use it for what ever you want?

    Exactly why I don't use any social media, and try to limit my exposure all places online.

    True... but your Cujo example was a bit off... A picture- if located for stock photo purposes, is a totally different deal than an entire book found online with author info removed. I was just saying perhaps Dudley thought he was grabbing a stock photo (for those that don't know, those are photos with open sources so anyone can use them) and this turned out not to be...

    that's what initially came to mind--the plaintiffs are represented by the southern poverty law center, which is quite quick to label folks "hate groups" or otherwise put their leftist-agenda labels on groups that say, lean to the right. no tin foil here, but seems like an interesting coincidence.

    Whos responsibility was it to make sure that the material being used is in fact open source/ stock photo? Thats right, RMGO.

    Ill say it again:
    If RMGO had used their brains a little they wouldn't be in this position.

    And I really do think its the same thing, he stole someone elses property and used it to generate revenue in the form of donations.
    Theft is theft.

    The mailer was not used for RMGO purposes, it was used to campaign for an election. RMGO was not involved. It was not used to generate donations, it was used as an attack ad of the opponent.

    I see that now,missed it the first time. Either way RMGO must have been involved some how being served with a subpoena and all.

    (bold emphasis added.)

    Utterly and completely untrue. Where do people get ideas like this?

    Stock photos are copyrighted by the photograph and licensed by the stock agency like all other copyrighted material.
    And if you copy them, the stock photo agency will demand money and get it or sue you.

    Don't copy photos from the internet. Unless you fully understand the licensing.

    That is the point that RMGO is making, Dudley was volunteering for a candidate to make the mailer. Even if what he did was wrong it does not allow them to gain access to RMGO information.
