[edit] Fair use for Tupac Shakur

This image, Tupac4.jpg, is being linked here; though the picture is subject to copyright I (Mysekurity) feel it is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

1. No free or suitable alternative has been located, nor can one be created as the subject of interest, Tupac Shakur, is no longer living.
2. It furthers the goals of providing verifiable information concerning the paragraph's subject matter, in that it visibly demonstrates the subjects and the moment directly before the shooting.
3. It in no way infringes on or assists in the illegal reproduction or distribution of the content of the event, goods or services being advertised.
4. It does not limit the copyright owner's rights to sell the event, goods or services in any way.
5. The image is of small size and inferior quality/resolution; any subsequent copies made from this image would be of useless quality.
6. The image is available elsewhere on the Internet.
