GM flexes its muscles

This dude posted leaked pictures of the upcoming Corvette Z06 he found somewhere on the Net, and 5 days later two guys from GM's contracted security firm show up at his door.

Fucking wankers. It's all fair game in that industry, and they know it.

To El Lawyers: Would GM have a case at all?

contracted security firm, Securitas Security Services
Didn't they used to be "Burns Security" until a few years ago? Yeah, I'd be impressed having one of those Off-The-Rack-at-Pennies Suits acting like that at my front door.

"Hang on a second, let me get the phone book and call me a lawyer. I'll tell you who I called, and then you can go talk to him instead of me... wait here... is that a real 'City Streets Brand" suit you're weaing? Preeety spiffy, must have set you back whay? $120?"

Sounds like some real BS scare tactics. I'd get there info, freakin laugh my ass of. Tell them to get the fuck off my property before the had a VERY bad day. Then the entire corp would be cited in my injunction against harrasement and civil suit.

The site of theirs mentions something like seven different names they've gone under.

Answer the door with a shotgun in one hand, and a leash to a bad dog in the other. Tell them that in keeping with the Christmas spirit, you are going to give them five seconds to get movimg before you let the dog go.

Security firm?

You mean you don't actually have any arrest powers?

Make that two seconds.
