   But not multiple images which is your unsubstantiated claim! Or should I say   
   ...your lie....yup far more accurate!

   All of which she has admitted!

   Correct , I have stated that I see no problem with it.

   I do not consider her actions immoral, when perpetrated against a person   
   such as yourself......that is correct.

   Yes to the first part, and the second part was unknown at the time so is of   
   no consequence, had you done the right thing and given credit to the owner   
   of the image...we would have had a different outcome IMO.

   I should take your word over hers? hahahhaahahhah

   Of course not as she did nothing to those images......well done.

   Perhaps you should consider who started the copyright angle, it was I that   
   finished it!   
      
   > something that has not even been in question and is not   
   > related to the image Elizabot admitted to stealing, editing, and reposting!   
      
   You are confused, first Elizabot according to you stole your image, then she   
   stole an image not owned by you, when will you get your story straight?

   When someone is accused of 'stealing' that refers to the removal of that   
   stolen from a place where that object should reasonably be expected to be,   
   what happens to that object after being stolen is another matter.   
      
      
   > 5) You brought up an unrelated incident.. where you *still* waffle back   
   > and forth and pretend like it is my fault,   
      
   If as you maintain I have continually said it is at least partly  (as agreed   
   by you) your fault, then that sounds as if I have maintained a consistent   
   position wrt that fact, which contradicts your notion of waffling back and   
   forth, perhaps I should say no more and simply let you make my points for me   
   you do not seem to be able to help yourself!

   Correct, but note that does not preclude my answering based on 'a' law!   
   The fact that you cannot make that distinction says a lot about your moral   
   values, again you make my point...thank you.   
      
   > At least now we both agree to that - you will not   
   > answer a question based on your morals, at least not in this context.   
      
   The context being of course 'The law' as opposed to 'A law'.

   Of course, because your morals cannot extend to the fact that sometimes   
   morality involves making a choice, you have shown consistently that this   
   ability is lacking in you, unfortunate, but true!

   Amen to that! ;=)   
      
   > You base your answers on what you *feel* you can reasonably do...   
      
   My oh My, fancy doing such a thing in respect to morals, where could I have   
   got the idea that morality is based on an individuals idea of right and   
   wrong.........Bad, Bad, Wally!   
      
   > I base my answers on what logic and reasoning allows,   
      
   You should let your hair down now and again and simply do what you feel is   
   right, you may actually develop some moral fiber that way!.
