Spanish woman claims ownership of the Sun

[Benmonkey7]

I think the correct title would be "Spanish woman wants some quick publicity." Seriously, this is just absurd. Ownership of the Sun? When she starts controlling the Sun and it's actions then I may take her seriously. Until then, I will just ignore her.

 

[Cazza]

And people just let that shit happen? The person who "owns" the moon & the woman who "owns" the sun. should be told th GTFO. No one though to add one line into the law says no indiviual or company may own the sun or moon. Thats just lazy.

 

[Tanfastic]

Hehehe, i'd enjoy rubbing it in the faces of people if I live near a pole (Canada) where there's like 30+ days without sunlight every year.

 

[Dfskelleton]

What if I don't pay? You gonna take away the sun? This is ridiculous.

 

[tthor]

she now wants to slap a fee on everyone who uses the Sun

But wait a second, wouldn't that just be taxing literally every non-aquatic organism on planet Earth?

nope, even aquatics use the sun. only the fish at the very bottom of the ocean would get away free

 

[Cazza]

People with skin cancer should sue her

anyone who has skin cancer caused by the sun should sue this woman. If I have an accident and break a leg in someone house they are liable. So this woman is liable for all those who get skin cancer.

You could claim you do not want the Sun, and the Sun is simply forcing itself on you. Lightrape if you will.

sue her for light pollution!

 

[VondeVon]

I claim ownership of all oxygen, everywhere, including planets we haven't discovered yet.

PAY UP IF YOU WANT TO KEEP BREATHING.

I plan to spend my billions on bribing everyone to be gay.

I want to know something: Exactly what would they do if we refused to pay for use of the sun? Shut it off? I'd pay to see you TRY and do that, just for the hell of it. This woman is crazy even if it IS legal. It's like selling your soul on ebay. (Or your Sol? Oh, that's terrible...) "Great! I have your soul! Now what?" You can't actually DO anything with the sun, except stand under it.

Oh wait, what happens if there's bad weather? Gonna buy off the sky so you can have clear days from now on? How much you wanna bet that that doesn't work? Maybe the price of the sun? Pretty sure the reason the law prohibited the buying and selling of planetary bodies was because it was just plain stupid. "I own Mars! You can't send probes there anymore!", and then NASA goes "Watch us." and the owner sulks.

EDIT: Extra thing! Why didn't they make her pay for the sun's net worth? Seriously, it's the SUN. It's the most valuable thing in the solar system next to a planet capable of supporting life! It makes the life happen, in part, and it holds all the planets in line with the assistance of dark matter. If you had to put a price tag on it, why isn't it much much much MUCH more than a person can afford?

 

[Techmech]

And in one fell swoop, all drives toward solar energy were halted.

Now, what happens if someone sues her for her property causing skin cancer?

I would LOVE to see that.

 

[PureIrony]

I'm getting that itch again. Y'know, where at first you laugh at something stupid, but then you realize the sheer magnitude of its stupidity, and you just want to go kill something to protect the chastity of your brain cells, which are constantly being defiled by the bile the human race is intent on spewing out?!

Or maybe thats just me?

 

[XThecommander]

Damnit, I better claim the moon fast, she may be taking that as well! And maybe even the nearest black hole if I can, I will also buy one of the wierd spiral galaxies, just so I can make my intergalactic empire, consisting of an army of knightmares, and star destroyers, and a few death stars as well. /sarcasm

 

[Estocavio]

That's really... really weird.
If she succeeds I may not be leaving my house much, you can't use the sun if you're inside right?

HAHA - Genious

 

[XThecommander]

Screw not leaving your house, I'll just get out an umbrella, she can't complain about that... [conspiracy] Unless, she wants you to buy an umbrella, or stay inside your home! It is all a trap![/conspiracy]

 

[RelexCryo]

I think she is trying to make some philosophical point about private ownership versus group obligation. She is trying to mock capitalism ang individual greed basically.

 

[Oneirius]

Okay, the premise itself is unbelievably stupid, but frankly, I am more concerned about the second part of the article, where she says she is going to use the "sun tax" to fix all the world's problems... Did you see that South Park episode with the space cash? Economy just doesn't work this way. You can't fix world hunger by inventing a new source of money. If it worked this way, governments could end all poverty just by printing enough money for everyone... But money only has value because it represents work and resources and stuff.
So she isn't just crazy for believing that she can own the fucking sun, she is also stupid for wanting go through with this plan of hers.

Poor Spanish lady.

EDIT: Also, can someone check out if it's legal for a person to claim ownership of God? God isn't a person, so human rights laws are not an issue, right? An he isn't an animal or even an object. Are there laws dealing with ownership of spirits?

 

[Fragged_Templar]

Actually I believe there may be some legal precedence in this matter, that will prevent her from legalising her claim since such a claim has already been refuted once before, when Scrooge Mcduck (of Walt Disney's Donald Duck) tried to do the very same thing and was denied!

also LOLOLOLOLOL, /facepalm, LOLOLOLOLOLOL, then /facepalm and finally LOLOLOLOLOL!

 

[Carlston]

And this story even proves it in spain.


Just say no to drugs kids.

 

[BiscuitTrouser]

Can we declare war on the Sun and capture her until she hands over the ownership?

This, lets see, one random spanish woman demanding money from EVERYONE ON EARTH for using "her sun". Thats one vs 4 billion. I say we fight her for it. VIVA LA REVOLUTION!
