Question: What do you think of Mexico, as a country not a government, on a whole?

My thoughts:
"According to the World Bank, Mexico ranks 13th in the world in regard to GDP and has the fourth largest per capita income in Latin America just after Argentina, Chile and Costa Rica, and it is firmly established as an upper middle-income country."

Many of the people who are coming here illegally are not really representing the best of their country. They are representing the worst. The people who live in the rural and poverty-stricken areas.

Just because somebody lives in Mexico, it doesn't mean they are poor and uneducated. 92% of the population can read and write and .3% of the population has HIV/AIDS. The average life expectancy is 75 (source: https://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/geos/mx.html#People) From what I've gathered, the people who are here illegally are the ones who are in need of the most help. However, the population of Mexico, as a whole, doesn't seem to be AS bad.

Honestly Hockey is much more enjoyable than Baseball and Soccer. Why arent there more fans and the television coverage is terrible.

I think Steve Irwin was amazing with animals and i think his work with them helped us all gain a greater understanding of animals. He will be sadly missed.

ive been dating my boyfriend for a little over seven months. we're both in high school, both virgins. i love this boy. not in the dumb high school love, but the kind of love where i can see myself having babies with him, and wiping his butt when hes too old to do it himself. i really think im ready to go all the way with him. im nervous to get pregnant. nervous that my parents will find out. nervous that itll ruin our relationship. but the need is so strong, i dont really know what to do now. i dont want our relationship to turn into something thats all about sex. i dont know. i need help.

I have been playing guitar for 4 years now, I'm 15, and want to start getting serious. I am fed up with playing in bands that don't do ****, I figure I can do it better on my own. I'm not sure if I should just play my guitar and sing, or add a drum box and some bass pedal (the things so you can play bass with your feet). I plan on doing originals and covers, half and half. Thanks.

who's against amnesty and for tighter border security and tougher penalties for illegal immigration to march tomorrow in response to the Demonstrations tomorrow, or are you too scared? Will you go out to protest to fight what you believe in or will stay behind the computer and type about how pissed of you are about the current illegal immigration situation?

They are labled as lower species, looked down on by some humans. Who gave us the right to judge them? Do we lead by example? I wish some people would stop being so self righteous and judgemental. How about excepting your own "mutt and mongrul, designer and hybred" people before you lay your judgement down on another species.

what do you think about this in the light of this information
Boys from a fatherless home are:


* 14 times more likely to commit rape

* 10 times more likely to abuse chemicals




85% of all children who exhibit behavioral disorders are from fatherless homes.

90% of homeless and runaway children are from fatherless homes.

71% of high school dropouts come from fatherless homes.

63% of youth suicides are from fatherless homes.

85% of all youths in prison come from fatherless homes.

Nearly 75% of children living in one parent families will experience poverty before they turn eleven, compared with 20% of two parent families.

Children from single parent families suffer more psychiatric illness.

These figures await further verification from future research. They need have only a grain of truth in them, however, to be highly disturbing.

If you were a HS student from a middle-class family and you were trying your best in all your IB classes (kind of like AP classes except you have to take AP for all main subjects) but managed to get C's in most of them. In 3 of them, you made so many stupid mistakes that you got a C. In addition, all the subjects/activities you used to be strong in, you aren't anymore. Also you can't keep most of the promises you make unless they are very very important. You already have low self-esteem, and you now believe that you do more harm than good. You are ridden with guilt, fear, and stress; you also feel incompetant because you are unsure of whatever you do unless you know how to do it on your own.

I know that I have a better life than some people but I just screw things up so much unintentionally that I can't help but think what I will screw up in the future. For all I know, I could accidently kill someone in a car.
