Criminals are, by definition, violators of the law. What sense does it make to think that a criminal would follow the law and not obtain a weapon and use it for criminal purposes? I usually hate cliches, but this one works: "If you outlaw guns, then only the outlaws will have guns."

I was in Petsmart few days back shopping stuff for my goldies and I stopped by their aquarium area to watch the fishes. I was heartbroken to look at the condition of those fishes and it really made me very sad. The goldies had all turned black due to bacteria infection and fungus, rotten fins and some where almost dead and others where nibbling on the dead ones and most of them where going to die because they were completely diseased. I felt it was very inhuman behaviour on the part of store and of course i understand they are doing the business but as a pet owner I felt deeply sad for those creatures. I wanted to know if other people have also observed similar scene at their local pet store or is it just my local store that treats the fishes that way? Have you ever done anything to bring it to the pet stores notice? What would be the right way of dealing with this situation without offending the owners?

Apparently people are leaving the UK like rats off a sinking ship, but do you think that emigrating will make people happier or does unhappiness follow people around?
I'm tempted to think that people's problems follow them where ever they go, but there does seem to be an awful lot of miserable people in this country and maybe getting out is the answer. What do you think?

I think it came out a year or two ago.... It was about a man who had like memory-loss and these men come into a diner he owns and he shoots them and then these other men are after him - sorry to be so vague. I saw it once but I can't remember... Basically the man used to be an assassin??

26 Then God said, “Let us make man... let them have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over the livestock ...”

28 And God said to them, “Be fruitful and MULTIPLY and FILL the earth ...”

Now why would God ....through Creationism CREATE HIV?!!??!!?! THAT IS AGAINST MULTIPLYING?!

-another reason why Creationism is bogus

I was dating a guy for a while who is of the same religion as I am, and he would accompany me to my religious meetings, we'd sit together, and everyone assumed that we'd be getting married soon. Well, we broke up very recently, but I still have a lot of people coming up to me asking how he's doing, do I have a ring yet, when is the big day, etc. And a lot of them are older friends, so you cant really talk to them like you would your peer. I'm just wondering what the proper answer would be when they ask those questions. I dont want to lie to them and say everythings fine, but then I dont want to go into all the specifics either (which I know they will want to know if I simply tell them that we're no longer seeing each other.) Anyone else in a similar situation, how did you handle the questions and well meaning inquiries?

someone close to me rec'vd an email from a man saying that he is a attorney of a man that passed away with the same last name as my friend and that my friend can get the money from the deasced man. i guess the attorney was left money but he cant get it until a next of kin makes a claim to get the money. the attorney is saying my friend will get 40% and he will get 60% of a very very large sum of money. now my friend isnt related to this dead man but they have the same last name and the attorney cannot find any living family relatives...so this attorney wants the money and needs my friend with the same last name to help him, he sent my friend his ID and certificate of proof that hes a attorney, how illegal is this? how ture could this be? what should my friend do...

My landlord knew I was out of town for a week, and that my boyfriend was watching my cat. She called me and told me that she'd gone into the apartment to check the cat (I didn't ask her to) because the cat was crying. What she didn't tell me was that she'd cleaned the litterbox and taken out the trash in my bathroom while she was here. I know she snooped around a bit, too (all she found was a drawer full of 'toys'. She got more then she bargined for!). The litterbox hadn't been cleaned in a week, so i'm sure it stunk, and it is possible that a neighbor complained or you could smell it from the hallway. Anyway- should I be angry that she snooped, or amused that she cleaned my bathroom?

People are simply upset at the unexpected ouster of Indian team from the world cup. They believe that the excessive advertisement by the players are one of the causes for the dismal performace as they were busy in rehearsing and shooting for advertisements rather than practising the game.

I heard some people saying in the television that they won't buy the products advertised by players in order to teach them a lesson. How do you react to this? Do you buy the items advertised by them
