News & Events - November 2006

In the news this morning there was a story about a guy who managed to buy 2 PS3's. He then decided to drive around and try to sell the games to people on the street for $5000. He was driving from place to place looking for buyers until he ended up at a gas station. There he met 2 guys who maced him and robbed him.

Did he deserve it for being an idiot?

Does Environment Minister David Miliband no what he is talking about or any other ministers come to that when it comes to globale warming, how is putting up prices of fuel going to stop the increasing use of fuel. (it wont this is just another backdoor taxation rip off).
Should not goverments and nations be doing more to find allternitive energe sourses (yes they should be but are doing sod all about it ) they just try to blame us the consumer and seem to forget that it is there policy that have brought us to this dilemmar.
there are many allternitive solutions out there if only some one will take the first steps and get on with it, instead of ordering another enquire to look into the problem.(which never achieves any thing).
(example the diesal engine when first invented was designed to run on penut oil so why do they not do more to promote this.)
it all comes down to how much brown can get out of us for there politacal needs they don't give a toss about us really.

I am of immigrant stock, half Assyrian(look em up!) and half British. Do people genuinely dislike ALL immigrants? Many people who come here, speak perfect English, fit in culturally and socially, and have good jobs or run their own businesses, thus creating employment...Unlike a fair number of true blood brits! There are 120,000 asian muslims who support terrorism against the uk living here, there is high crime caused by Somalis, Albanians and Kurds, and in urban areas with young Carribean men. There are many who wont learn english or fit in, and slag of british history, they should go elsewhere! But what of the rest of us? I'd rather deport Chavs and hoodies! What say u?

I've been his fan since his photo released in newspapers. Today I heard that he's wife-beater (in TV)... found it shocking. Coz, taking drugs may not be a guilt, it's an illness first of all, but beating his wife ... it's unbearble, what do u think ?

It appears that country after country after country is now identifying George Walker Bush as the devil.

Could it be that he is actually the AntiChrist that the Bible warned Christians about?

Is the number to his name 666?

Women and children are being sold on a global market and I don't see anyone invading Turkey or Thialand to stop it.

Are we so worried about animal rights and anti war protests we don't give a damn about humans? Isn't it time we cared more about international slaves than oil and rats?

I did a quick search and found this link:

After years of an all volunteer military, and the sucessfull prosecution of a war in the gulf with an all volunteer military, the new chairman of the house "ways and means" committee has promised to author a bill to return a draft. Is this a good thing?

My belief is that an all volunteer military will be stronger and more motivated since those serving want to serve. Additionally, a draft will load the military with those individuals that cannot afford or gain college admitance, and avoid the draft. Thus the lower economic classes will be again over represented, while the upper classes will avoid the military due to the stigma that a draft brings.

Please state whether you have ever served in the military or not in your answer.

Where were the human rights for the people like Ken Bigley and other innocent people who were killed for no reason. I've not seen Human Rights do anything about that but Saddam killed innocent people cold blooded and they protect him.

anyone else agree that the draft is the most messed up thing ever? People ages 18-26 don't exactly make up a huge portion of the nation. How dare a bunch of 60 year olds decide i get to go fight in a war i don't even believe in. I am talking about this now due to that idiotic democrat from NY who thinks it'll "do our young people good". That's bull++it. The fact of the matter is, there should be no war period, but there always will be due to morons, but do people really think an army made of up of kids forced to fight is right? it's not at all, i'll say this right now, there is no way someone is ever going to force me to kill someone or fight in a war i don't think we should be fighting.

I have a frined. His account is deactivated because he is very straight person. He calls spade a spade. The dishonest and corrupt people immediately complain to the Yahoo and his account, web site and other things are deactivated. This is the worst sensorship I have seen. I this way dishonest people will get their way. He deosn't use nasty words like many people do. Although the other people have equal or even more right to clarify their position but they don't as they know they an't win the debate. so it is like UNo VETO which can be used to silence the truth. Do you agree with Yahoo's this policy?????
