Guns in cars at work bill

Neb. measure aims to redefine gun owners' rights

LINCOLN, Neb. (WTW) — Gun owners who legally transport and store weapons in their vehicles would have better-defined property rights under a measure debated Wednesday in the Legislature's Judiciary Committee.

Legislative Bill 785 would provide clearer guidelines for the transportation and storage of firearms in vehicles in publicly accessible parking lots — common lots provided for both employees and customers — throughout the state.

Sen. Mark Christensen of Imperial said many gun owners face inconsistent rules and actions by their employers. He and other bill supporters said people should be allowed to have permitted handguns and hunting guns carefully locked and stored in their vehicles and not be subjected to employer weapons bans.

So as long as LESS than 50% of the original article is copied and pasted AND a link to the original story is provided there is no infringement, is that correct?   Or does the copyright notice at the end of the article prevent ANY reference to it? 

Not arguing, just asking for clarification.  According to the bold print in the Fair Use reference, DanClrk51 is within the guidelines.

Non-profit fair use guidelines (meaning you aren't posting something that gains you money, nor are you attempting to pass someone else's work off as yours) that are used in copyright law along with the policy of this forum, both allow the original post.

Matter of fact, it was better done than most.  Didn't post the whole article, just the salient features/summary, and included the link to the original for author information and the rest of the article. 

Speaking as a teacher who shows kids how to quote and cite correctly for scientific research articles, good job.

Also, just to point out, Righthaven doesn't exist anymore teehee

But, it can be pointed out that there are ads and such on this forum... thus reproducing copyrighted works can then generate NFOA money via the ads.

This is how Napster was brought down years ago -- while they didn't host any of the infringing music files and all of that jazz -- they did make money from site advertisements and such.

NFOA people always include a link to the original article and all that jazz, so I imagine it's not a problem.

I had already "fixed" the post before I added the warning.

I would like to see less that 50% of the original text , a link to the article and if it can be determined the authors byline.

Since I am the registered DMCA agent for our association, I get a little more worried when I see this

Side note; I have noticed with some news sites, when I copy and paste a portion of the article text in a post,  a link to the article and a short copyright notice is automatically added. Noticed it especially with FOX.  Thought it kinda handy.

Thank you Dan W. for fixing the post. I will try to be more careful in the future.
