One week ago my son was involved in a fight. Four black kids backed him into a corner in the bathroom and one landed three punches to his face. Three kids blocked the door so he couldn't get out. My son, who has had an IMMACULATE behavioral record, defended himself and headlocked one boy and proceeded to punch him back.

My son and the one who punched him were suspended. The black boy has already been suspended twice this year for fighting.

I have never been a prejudice person and have never taught my children color. EVERYONE is equal in my eyes.

Furthermore, the vice-principle (black) said there were 3 witnesses - but they were the friends of the boy who jumped my child and they were all black.

So, do you think Al Sharpton will come to my town and bring attention to the fact that my non-prejudice white son was jumped in a bathroom by 4 black boys????

The national id card is set to take effect next year, and chipping everyone is the next step. These are facts. Do you all really want this? Do you realize how many liberties you are giving away for this?

I hope we all wake up before the next election.

Does the insurance hand you a check for all your personal belongings??? Say you have your house insured for 190,000.00 and personal property for 110,000.00? I know they won't hand you the check for your house but what about your personal belongings?

I read that in India, white is associated with death and funerals, and so it would be wrong for a man or a woman attending a Hindu wedding to wear white. Is this true? And what would be the best colour to wear?

I do not like country and would prefer that the song be very unique so not Celine Dion or Streisand or anyone like that. We are using Sinatra for the other song. Any ideas of a great love song that fits into that genre, or something that few people have heard?

Law enforcement officers that taser to punish are breaking the law. It is an example of the misuse of technology and there is the danger that it become routine to taser people at the whim of the cop.

Tasers scare the hell out of me as much as guns do. Fearing the misuse of tasers by cops makes me fear, not respect,both the police and the gov't that is supposed to protect me from harm. I feel we are turning communities into prisons with cameras and tasers. The use of tasers can kill and efforts to minimize that fact by cops who feel comfortable using the taser at the slightest provocation in a minor police encounter, like a traffic violation stop, concerns me a great deal.

What's your A to my Q? Then comment w/o insults, please.

Did I mention that 50% of the female staff are hot university students?

Sounds good doesn't it?

It's not, it's like showing a hungry man some food and then telling him he can't have any....how cruel.

Hi. I am probably travelling to the UK next december. I have to go to cardiff, and my flight arrives at gatwick airport at 23:55. The bus for cardiff leaves the next day at 4:40 am, so i have to wait for about 5 hours. I'm rather on a tight budget, so i wouldn't want to rent an airport hotel for the night. Just want to know, is it safe to stay in the north terminal with the luggage? and is there a place where one can stay with no hassles?

At approx a little after midnight on Sept 17th I was pulled over for driving 57 miles an hour in a 35 mile an hour construction zone. The police officer claimed he caught me on a gun as I was merging with other cars from 2 lanes. However, I tried to explain that 1. I sped up to safely merge by getting ahead of another car. 2. In addition it was a Nassua county police officer who pulled me over. The place he pulled me over was just past the "suffolk" county sign on the highway. So I believe I was in Suffolk county.
I have a very good driving record. This is my first offense. I have a court date for this in 5 weeks. I am going to plea not guilty. Do I have a case? What are my options to minimize the negative impact of this incident on my driving record and my insurance? Thanks for your advise in advance.

Have you ever watched the horror movies, Saw? I'm curious to know if anybody's actually had a similar experience to the ones in the Saw movies...well...okay, maybe not such experiences like medieval torture devices threatening to kill you. No. I'm talking about more realistic experiences when you thought you were GENUINELY dying & you were so terrified that you found yourself regretting things you may or may not have done, promising to be a better person if you got through it, etc. It happened to me.

Last month, I accidentally came into contact with a person's blood on my hands. I was in absolute terror for weeks, believing that I'd caught Herpatitis, aids, etc. I finally went to the doctor & was cleared of such illnesses. The experience had been so terrifying & over-whelming that I found myself being more grateful for life than I've ever been. I swore from that day forward to be a better person & to cherish every waking moment.

Has such an experience happened to you?

I have had 2 ferrets for 10 yrs that both recently passed away 2 years ago. I trained them fine, and I never had any probelms. I just got a new ferret about a month ago and he is the nicest ferret. He litter trained quickly and is not aggressive. The other day I noticed when I stuck my hand in his cage I noticed he tensed up so I went to go pet him to calm him and he tried to bite me. So I have been messing with him to notice if I had just scared him, but have come to learn that he is an aggresive eater. He will snap at you and draw blood if you touch him while he eating. I dont want to discipline him in fear that it will get worse or take his food away because then he will think that Im going to take his food away all the time and in turn try and defend it. HELP! Ive had alot of experience with ferrets but this draws a blank.

I'm 32 and My husband of 4 years is 31. he just started this restaurant job. he used to do carpentry now he works in the kitchen and sometime the front desk. my husband usually doesn't wear cologne but since he started working there he has been shaving and wearing cologne everyday. his family owns restaurant so he works with family members except for this one girl she is a close friend of the familys (not close with him) he seems to know a little bit about her like her work schedule and her days off at her other job. I know they talk and i get so jealous and can't help but think that he likes her. when i asked him he said his father told him to shave all the time and that the outfit sometimes smells like food that's why he wears cologne. i nag and always accuse him of cheating for no reason but this time I really don't know It hurts just to think he likes someone. everything else seems to be normal at home we still have sex everyday. is it ok to like someone when you're already marrie
