I am giving a speech on banning smoking in public areas and need opinions from other people. My research shows that by putting a ban out less people would be harmed from secondhand smoke.

AS a member of the yearbook staff at my high school, I was wondering if anyone actually reads the copy(writing) that the staff spends so much time on, or if you just look at the pictures?

I'm a Republican and my friend says I'm an animal hater and tree killer. I asked him why he said this and he replied that since most Republican talk show hosts hate tree huggers (which they don't, only the way they express their veiws) that all Repubilcans must be like this. Then he threw something I said into the Liberal spin machine and it came out as 'If someone calls himself by one name and has a certain belief, then all who call themselves by this name follow the said belief.' So he put this together saying that if Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannidy, Jim Quinn and Glenn Beck call themselves Republicans and hate quote-unquote 'greenweenies' and I call myself a Republican, than I must hate 'greenweenies' as well. How much sense does this make? Has anyone else heard of a similar case in the Liberal media?

Hey there everyone. I saw this article posted on Yahoo! Homepage and want everyone's input. What do you think about this article? Do you think this is a very important, but overlooked issue, or not? Any input is greatly appreciated.

One of the reasons I enjoyed having Yahoo as my home page was the lively 'discussions' at the end of each article.

Now, Yahoo news is the same as any other newpaper or web online. The inability to 'respond', as all Americans love to do, leaves Yahoo news just as insipid as all the rest.

Yes, I understand that, many of the responders were rude and crude but, many were not. In a democracy you communicate with the citizenry you have not the citizenry you wish you had.

arrested him,they were in the arrested man's bathroom when this happened.The police man had a submachine gun with the safety catch off there were at least three policemen plus the suspect in this small room,it makes you wonder what carnage could have happened if he had fired.He has already stated that he doesn't know why he didn't fire.Shouldn't he be taken off firearm duties until he has been re-assessed

This was a single 27year old who lived in a council house with 55year old mother and 24year old sister.He worked as a school caretaker and went to work on a bicycle.Why couldn't they arrest him on the way to work and why did it need 7 uniformed officers and several plain clothed officers.Wouldn't it be more likely that he could set off an explosion at home than in the street on his bike?
