Choms is quite clearly an O:P member. As the rest of his email's have
shown, he's not really one for facts.

Well, yes. We did write the letter fairly and without mass accusation.
The way certain members of it have responded does give the sense of an
agent provocateur involved with O:P. While the new 'dispute' may play to
the MPAA and their ilk, it currently has not done so to anything like
the degree the original O:P did.

We in the US have always been on the side of the law. Now, wanting some
laws changed, that's different from breaking those laws. That way
anarchy lies, and anarchy serves no-one.

Actually, we respect *ALL* laws (it's a requirement for a political
party in the US, if it isn't in Romania, great, you're operating in a
much nicer, easier system than we are. The likes of Sanziana Buruiana
wouldn't even get started here, except in maybe one or two states that
have sane ballot access laws). There are some laws we want changed
though. However, the computer crimes one isn't one of them, as it's
written pretty fairly, and does deal with a problem.
