I hate to say I told you so, but...

Awhile back I commented that file-sharing copyright violations were an 
outcropping of the scofflaw mentality propagated by widespread speeding 
on the highways.

I received several replies to the effect that Arizona law permitted 
speeding.  These alleged that "you can drive at any 'reasonable' speed." 

However, Arizona law is clear that the "reasonable and prudent" 
provision is pre-empted by any posted speed limits, not the other way 
around.

"any speed in excess of the following speeds is prima facie evidence 
that the speed is too great and therefore unreasonable: ...Sixty-five 
miles per hour..."

I'm all for the protection of Fair Use, but copyright violation is 
illegal and so is speeding.  Even if you don't want them to be.

We are a country guided by Laws.  Let's uphold them!
