I watched that tape and the media has WAY over blown. The cops were chasing people that were throwing bottles, sticks and rocks and they ran through a group of ralliers.

Bottom line, either enter the country legally like thousands of other law biding immigrants waiting patiently or get the hell out!

Why are you SO special that YOU get to jump to the front of the line? That you SHOULDN'T follow the law? That YOU destroy the country's infastructure? (CA helathcare system went backrupt due to illegal aliens, check it out, it's the truth the ralliers don't want you to know).

And as for the jobs no one wants, yeah a) we have convicts and unemployed to do them and b) sending American dollars back across the boarder HURTS America, doesn't help it.

Get out!

Do they only have the best interest of their party in mind, or their own self interest (i.e. getting re-elected)?
What about the best interest of our Nation, our way of life, our very civilization. Don't they understand that this is just the opening volly of a war between good and evil? Havn't they heard the clearly stated ovjectives of the radical Islamics, which is to eliminate all religious faiths other than Islam, by any means necessary? Wake up America and the rest of the free world.

I am confused. When the muslims are using bombs to fight, they call it Jihad, but the Americans call it terrorism. Again Iran's President claims America and Israel to be terrorist nations.

Is anyone else out there ENRAGED at the hypocrisy of the "MARCH of ILLEGALS" in Los Angeles...

How gutless our politicans are to pander for votes...corporate america who loves the cheap labor...our bi-lingualism signs everywhere(which promotes illiteracy!)...our dumbed-down schools...the disengaged parents who blame the system(yet they don't embrace education as needed in a technologically advanced society)...our GUTLESS Mayor(always looking for another photo op)...

I think the Homeland security should have had 18-wheelers ready to load up, and ship back anyone who is here breaking the LAW! Next time your not invited to a party, drive your car into the house...see how "welcome" you are by demanding, not abiding by the rules of society.

I have to make some travel plans.

I know it is a movie, but in Easy Rider it seemed that it was legal in some district in New Orleans.

The 47 story re-inforced building apparently came down as the result of a fire caused by twin tower debris. It falls like a controlled demolition. How can this happen?

Should it be current descendants of U.S. slaves? All current African Americans? The poorest African Americans? The African American community as a collective group? Al Black Americans (a wider group than African Americans, including at least recent immigrant, or 2nd generation African or Afro-Carribeans)?

The story goes that a dry cleaners lost his 2 pair of dress pants. He is a consumer protection judge, so he should know the law.
Is he justified or is he f****** crazy?
What is this world coming to?
We must be near the end if this can happen, didn't think pants could be worth more than a few hundred.

the reason why life in this country is so good is because we (for the most part) dont have to struggle, we dont have a horrible economy and we FIGHT for or freedom and privilege's . rising gas prices are causing a rise in the cost of living and its just going to get worse and worse. why should we stand by quietly and allow our way of life to be destroyed? what is your justification for tolerating gas price increases?

It always bugs me when car chases are broadcast on the news and the reporter invariably says, "wow that car is going at a very high RATE OF SPEED." Why not just a "high speed," or "fast speed?" Is speed itself not already a rate, as in the rate of distance over time? It's like saying, "I'm going to eat my meal of breakfast now." Am I the only one who thinks this sounds stupid, given that this comes so often out of the mouths of journalists who are supposed to epitimize standard English?

Are you convinced that nuclear power is the answer? What do you think of the show's theory that global warming is not really happening in light of ice at the north pole melting for the first time in history, and glaciers disappearing? Do you attach any signifigance to the fact that the show's sponsors were drug companies that do not want the prices they charge you, the taxpayer, to be regulated? And companies that want legal protection from being sued by injured victims of their products or practices? Do you think they have already begun to propagandize for the Republican Party for the 2008 election? Do you resent being robbed and led around by the nose by unscrupulous manipulators?
