Did any one see the news report, about the little boy, who's mother had died recently. The mother had made the five year old FIVE video tapes for him right before she died. Some one broke into the home he was staying at and STOLE the tapes. It was heart breaking to the core. He lives in ottowa County, Ohio. His tears shredded me to bits. If anyone knows if the tapes have been returned or where I can add to the reward fund please let me know? I can not find a report on the internet news about it.....

I put a question on the other day asking people if they were noticing
changes in the environment where they were in the U.S.
and the answer that americans voted as being the best was
appalling.The koalas are burning.
The answer was "Well the environment is changing all the
time" NOT LIKE THIS IT ISN'T.

I'm reading the Detroit News, and there's an article about Del. Frank D. Hargrove Sr. (R) igniting "a hot exchange in the House of Delegates on Tuesday after criticizing a proposal for the state to issue an apology for slavery and likening it to requiring Jews to apologize for 'killing Christ.'"
He "told lawmakers that his comments were intended only to make the point that 'not a soul in this legislature' had anything to do with slavery - and that there is no point on dwelling on a chapter of US history that all agree was repugnant."
Hargrove went on to say "If we keep bringing this up, bringing this up - I think this is a harmful idea just to keep recycling this thing which we all know and all despise and have no respect for."
He added that slavery ended 140 years ago with the Civil War, and said "our black citizens should get over it."
Just wondering if we all feel that slavery was repugnant. I know I do. Also, should black citizens "get over it"?

1000's of lives would be saved if Israel simply gave back Palestine its land back....Palestines have nothing against the Jews...They simply want their land back which was taken by the U.N. and given to Israel..Who wouldnt be mad if someone just comes up to you and takes your land without your permission..I know it may be hard to understand..and i do not agree with the blood shed but maybe Israel should be given back to Palestine and a new resolution should take place...Note: I am not taking either side..Too many innocent people are dying everyday!!! It needs to stop...

A terrorist often use violence as a means to gain attention as governments repeatedly prove that they do respond and react when violence occurs.Most governments and "legitimate" military leaders do not openly attempt to use civilians as shields or aim at them during times of political conflict.Nelson Mandela does not come in this category.He fought for his land...........But through political terrorism.Here,terrorism on the other hand aims to achieve political or other goals, when direct military victory is not possible.For him it freedom fight but for other such as the sufferers afroamericans at that time he was a terrorist.The main purpose of this talk is to give the audience an overview of how terrorists see the world, both strategically and morally.
