Anti-P2P = Denying Reality Now

Anti-P2P = Denying Reality Now

Do they think they can change human nature?

Hip Hop Bloggers “If I Ruled the Blogosphere”

By Ryan Van Etten on 05/26/2010

You’re moving in the right direction.” continued Penn. Frank Talk summarized it in poetic terms, “If they’re stealing from you, [then] you’re on the right track.”
