Many of you that have Myspace or Facebook accounts have seen the bulletins go up about how if a black man marches for pride in his color, he is brave. But if a white man was to do that, he would be a racist.

I would like to find out from the community if you believe it is possible for white people to be able to take pride in their color without being called racist.

Now, I'm an Austrian. We didn't have African slaves. In fact, over in Austria we don't have much of any racism or prejudice at all. We're all pretty much settled on the fact that people are people and we should all let them do whatever.

Yes, we had the Holocaust and all, but really even the Jewish peoples understand that that is over with and bygones are bygones, and the actions of a few powerful and oppressive men doesn't portray the rest of their kind.

So I say, just because there were white people out there that had slaves, why are all white people being punished for it?
This isn't a hate speech, it's food for thought

Yesterday my sister had surgery to remove her entire ascending and transverse colon to just below the splenic flexure due to cancer. She did get to keep her descending colon and the anastomosis went well. How will this affect her in her every day life? Any information would be appreciated.

British High Court judge Michael Burton ruled Wednesday Gore's documentary should be shown in British schools only with guidance notes to prevent political indoctrination. The decision followed a lawsuit by a father, Stewart Dimmock, who claimed the film contained "serious scientific inaccuracies, political propaganda and sentimental mush."

Dimmock took the British government to court after then-Environment Secretary David Miliband launched a plan to send "An Inconvenient Truth" to all British schools, announcing the scientific debate over man-made global warming "is over."

The judge, however, sided with Dimmock, who alleged the documentary breached the Education Act of 1996 by portraying "partisan political views."

The court ruled the Guidance Notes to Teachers must make clear that:

* The film is a political work and promotes only one side of the argument.

Pinay maid in Kuwait gang rape says no to settlement.

By JEFFREY G. DAMICOG

The 18-year-old Filipina victim of rape in Kuwait has positively identified all 15 of her abusers and vowed she will not agree to any settlement, the Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) said today.
With this, Foreign Affairs Secretary Alberto Romulo has directed the Philippine Ambassador to Kuwait Ricardo Endaya to personally handle the case of the Filipina rape victim.
Romulo also told the Ambassador to engage the services of lawyers to represent the Filipina in the legal proceedings.
Citing reports from the Embassy, the rape victim has already declared before the Kuwaiti press that she is determined to pursue the case against the suspects despite efforts to have her settle.
The rape victim came face to face with the 15 suspects last December 26.During six hours of interrogation by the prosecutors, the Filipina stood firm and solid in positively identifying each of the suspects while in the presence

someone had a green light for the left turn lane and made a U turn and hit me when I was trying to turn right? My light was red. I made my stop looked and let off the brake. I was just about to hit the gas when this guy does a wide U-turn from the left turn lane. It doesn't say you can't do a U-turn, but it doesn't say you can either. I was already into my turn when their light turned green. Who would have been to blame if there WAS an accident?

Let me know if you need more details and I'll try to explain better. I really want to know the answer.

mine is going to the beach. i have absolutely no desire to get darkened by evil rays from the sun that give me cancer, as i sit around accomplishing nothing, in the intense heat and get sand in all of the places that i never want sand. i also hate the feeling and smell of sun tan lotion, and staring at all the gross people that aren't covered up enough.

For non-believers... can love make you change your mind? Lets say you fall in love with somebody who is a Christian.. and it so happened that she's a devout Christian and she wants to get married through the church ceremonies? Would you change your mind for her? or would you end the relationship just to stand firm on your principle of being an atheist?
