I do hope they take safety measures to prevent this in the future. I would be to scared to take my kids to the Grand Canyon. You would really have to glue them to you. Is there anyone here that has been there? Are their not fences up all around it?

as an Englishman who owns many major US based companies I feel I am in a position to ask this.
The Americans that I own are often confused and feel they are being lied to by their own government In recent wars including Iraq, US soldiers have been branded the worst army for their terrible record of shooting friend and not foe.
I have a theory on this which could blow into a major scandal for the US governemnt .It is as follows
The US governemnt needs to keep the expenditure on weapons to a minimum, so i believe the US are purchasing their guns and rifles from ex fairground owners.The guns that were previously used by fairgrounds to win a prize.The thing which the US governement have not taken into account is that these fairground owners have bent the barrells of the guns and rifles to prevent prizes being won on a regular basis.These guns are then given to US soldiers who therefore have difficulty aiming at the right thing.
As you can see it all is starting to make sense

What has the combined work of the ongoing Hate Campaign directed toward the McCanns actually achieved.
Nothing, thats what, absolutely nothing.
The sum total of all the postings made on this site by the amateur Sherlocks is a big fat nothing.
It will always come down to one cast iron fact.
the McCanns are Innocent until proven guilty and all the crap posted on here accusing them of every crime known to man is just a meaningless waste of time.
The McCanns have been found guilty of nothing.
Live with it.

The relative safety of the benzodiazepines (Sedatives) is most clearly evident in cases of overdose. Even massive overdoses, if taken without other CNS depressants, are almost never fatal

Have you noticed that when the Truth begins to surface and when its not what one had imagined all along, how one tries to fight it by repeating oneself...um...repeatedly?

Thank Heavens not only does Truth hurt, it also does prevail...!

Do you think this is a case of "new broom sweeps clean " and that we may finally be getting closer to the truth ? Poor Maddy certainly doesn't deserve all this. What are your thoughts ?

where is there a proper legal sytem which operates as a deterrent against the criminal activites which take place
It seems to me that today's 'trendies' attack the victims and not the perpetraters

For those who dont yet know, the probable scenario is this.

The Tapas 9, whose stories never made sense, who had a pact of silence were in fact on a swingers holiday.
This would be why 9 adults from different parts of the country, would book the same table at the same time night after night.
(Most normal people would do something else would they not)

The doctors have a different venue each night for their adult games, but they have problem looking after the kids.

Solution, put all the kids in one apartment. This of course creates a new problem, they are not going to go to sleep. Solution, easy for doctors, sedate them.

But of course sedating childre is very risky, should not be done outside a hospital, but its done anyway.
A tragic mistake occurs Madeleine is overdosed and dies.
Jane Tanner is either there or was there later. She may have supplied the sedative. In any case she is implicated as are all the Tapa 9 because they have been doing this night after night.

I just moved into my condo as a renter one month ago. My downstairs neighbor has complained twice to me that my one and a half year old son walks too loudly. He has now placed 2 complaint letters to his Home Owners Assn. He constantly looks up onto my balcony to see if what I have there (which is a bike, bbq, and chair) and to see if I am in violation somehow. He has had several arguments with his wife since I moved in, constantly slams doors, cusses, and now has gotten another neighbor friend of his involved. His friend has now also stated that they hear noise coming from my condo. I do not have parties, I rarely even have visitors, and their is no excessive noise. What rights does he have to take action against me? Is there actually a possibility I could be kicked out?

colorofchange.org is sending emails using this statue of LA law 14:107.2
http://www.legis.state.la.us/lss/lss.asp?doc=78262

Clearly hanging a noose is not a hate crime by law. BUT hate crime applies to the Jena 6 and the crime they committed according to this statue.
