Like many, you may have confused copyright law with ordinary respect and decency.

Personally, I'm against any and all forms of copyright. That doesn't mean I cannot consider people that pass of other people's work as their own to be complete assholes.

Also, there are plenty of other laws to cover that. IANAL, but I'm thinking of plagiarism, forgery etcetera.

Actually, plagiarism is not, as far as I know, a legally recognized concept. If you want to go after someone for plagiarism, you're going to have to pound that screw in with the hammer of copyright law.
