That's A Laugh

Reader comment on item: CAIR Steals My (Intellectual) Property

Submitted by Mark D (United States), Jul 9, 2014 at 01:30

When I wrote CAIR demanding (among other steps) the removal of this picture, it replied that its use of my picture is "not an infringement" of my rights. But when educated about American laws and confronted with the possibility of a lawsuit, it offered "in the interests of resolving this matter amicably, … to replace Mr. Pipes's picture with one from the public domain" as well as to destroy its existing stock of paper copies of this study. As it turns out, CAIR did more than this: it not only removed the offending picture of me from the new version, but it took out all pictures of me and of every other individual discussed in the study, perhaps because it sought to resist further such problems..

CAIR have just one oar in the water while DanielPipes.org is a transport of delight.
