If I post a poem on my Facebook site and someone cuts and pastes it on their site is that a case for stealing my intellectual property?
The correct answer for this question is yes, this is stealing intellectual property. Does it seem to apply to Face book, no it does not.

As adults we need to be role models for the younger generation until this issue can be resolved.
