Let me preface this question by saying that I am in the U.S. and don't know which newspapers are tabloid and which are legit.

Has anyone seen this story and if so, is it in a legit paper or no?

Do you really think that it is OK to Taser someone because he likes practical jokes?

Americans truly are a sick group.

Sex education at school describes how the male penis should penetrate the vagina. Given the liberalisation of society lead by the Government and Left Wing Media, should graphically teaching kids homosexual sex be included in the school syllabus?

The PeoplePC home page for top news claims "Iran draws up plans to bomb Israel" (you can see for yourself here http://home.peoplepc.com/ ). This title is supposed to refect the same news story I link to here http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070919/ap_on_re_mi_ea/iran_israel but obviously the title PeoplePC created falsely accuses Iran being on the aggressive in preparing to bomb Israel. The news story itself slants toward there being something extraordinary about Iran claiming it will defend itself if attacked, but wouldn't you expect ANY nation to say the same?

What is the deal with the sudden onslaught of pro-war propaganda in the media?

After all they were on the verge of suing a Portuguese newspaper the other week for disclosing facts about the case that they felt shouldn`t be in the public domain.

My son has sen and has a sen support teacher ...

Yesterday she hit him and today she dragged him across the floor which was so strong it ripped his pants..

She has been suspended and i have a meeting on friday with the school to decide the outcome ..

There are numerous statements which support my son and the headteacher has said she over stepped the mark ..

We have just been at the school for an update and were left waiting 25 minutes to speak to someone (headmaster away) and were told a load of rubbish .

Obviously there has been some form of communication breakdown as the deputy head did not know a majority of the facts and stated my son was excluded ..

I removed him today as he was distraught .. have already spoken to the police and they are awaiting the statements ..

My question is what do i do now ?I feel the school may cover this up and having never been in this situation i do not know what to do ...

Hmmm. .. I wonder if I can sue the DNR for letting one of their deer run into my car. The DNR must think they own the deer since they tell us when we can hunt them, how many we can kill and when we can do it. They fine us for any infractions of their rules, so they must own them, right? If a farmer's cow wanders in the road and I hit it, his insurance covers my damage. So why not sue God? I wonder if he has Geico.

According to team McCann the DNA evidence collected is pathetic and wouldn't stand up in a court of law. Not so according to the experts in Birmingham some of whom are the best in the world in their field of forensic science. They believe they have damming evidence against the McCanns and will not have a problem building a case. Who do you believe, The McCanns or the impartial world experts in Birmingham? I got the info from today's mail.

Michael Jackson, O.J. Simpson, Richard Blake, and soon to be Phil Spector get off without punishment for serious crimes such as murder or child molestation. Are the jury members in Los Angeles idiots, or is the love of celebrities just too high there.

Meanwhile little old ladies in Los Angeles are arrested because their grass is too brown and dry. And students in Florida are arrested for asking too much at a John Kerry speech. Will they get the same break celebrity murderers get?

Is something wrong with this picture?

In ref to: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070919/ap_on_re_mi_ea/iran_israel

If Iranian officials said they would retaliate if ANY country attacked them, not just Israel, wouldn't that be expected? What is so news-worthy about the "event" of what the Iranian general said when you know any U.S. general would have said the same exact thing? The U.S. would "retaliate" if Israel attacked the U.S.! Doesn't the public realize on a grand scale how poorly this kind of propaganda is being disguised as news? The next thing you'll be hearing about is another "pre-emptive" strike by a "U.S. led" coalition because the general of Iran suggested they've got a plan to bomb Israel! No doubt the pentagon already had the plan to bomb Iran when Iran claimed to have a plan to bomb Israel if Israel attacked Iran.

If you watch old news footage, you'll see Kate Adie in some of the most dangerous and volatile situations in the world. She risked her life to report - yet no Damehood? They are dished out to actresses and sportswomen willy-nilly, yet the Lara Croft of journalism hasn't received one. Why is this?

What is happening with the media just lately ?

LETS REMEMBER ALL THE EVENTS THAT LEAD TO MISSING MADELEINE WERE CAUSED BY / AND WERE THE DIRECT RESULT OF ?
The Mc Canns leaving three children alone in an appartment , whilst they Drank fine WINE and had a meal with friends .

This is the one fact that is KNOWN by all MEDIA / POLICE ? SOCIAL SERVICES .
The Mc Canns are so called proffesional People !!!
They did know better .
If this had happened to the BECKHAMS I could understand the MEDIA coverage .
If this had happened in this country SOCIAL SERVICES would have / and indeed should have REMOVED the remaining two children from the Mc Canns for thier own SAFETY !!
CHILDREN SHOULD NEVER BE LEFT ALONE LIKE THAT .

Again this proves one thing !!! HAVE MONEY

GET AWAY WITH MURDER

What would JOE PUBLIC get ? ANSWER A criminal record

My question is this ? Am I the only one who understands the root cause to missing Madeleine ?
PARENTAL NEGLECT
