I heard yesterday that he might be an illegal alien, but someone said he was an American citizen. Now Last I read, he was released to the custody of his parents. So does this mean that if you are underage in your state, you can get away with something like this if you say you are sorry? What is happening with all of the people who lost everything ot the fires? How do they feel about it all?

Okay, the reason why I have asked this question is because I want to know what your opinion is..Do you think he deserved to die? AND do you think the Metropolitan Police should be punished?

I hate the fact that they actually did this to a person who had nothing to do with the bombings. The Police should be punished severely...I am very upset and I hope the Police pay something in return...Even if they give anything, it will not replace the damage they have done to me and his family (maybe to others too), I am very upset, although I do not know Menezes...It is just VERY SHOCKING to hear this and now I have seen the day-to-day thing on bbc news on menezes.. It is very sad and very emotional...

Look at this, this stupid person is an ignorant, blaming it on Menezes, He/She said it's the bombers fault, it's the Police' fault too!!!!!

I have no problem what so ever with other cultures and religions, but surely we shouldn't have to "downgrade" our religious festivities in our country to make others feel comfortable?

Any opinions?

I would rather people didn't use this as a rant against immigrants though!
Cheers

When you put a gun in their hands, they can shoot innocent people SEVEN TIMES and somehow no one is help culpable for any offence, not even manslaughter.

I just saw on the news that John Karr has a girlfriend. She is a single mom of a 3 yo little girl. If you guys don't remember, he is the man who falsely confessed to killing John Benet Ramsey. They both say it is true love and plan to marry in the future. In my opinion CPS should take away this child from her mother. Afterall he is a conviceted sex offender. This is wrong on so many levels, Soooo disgusting!

I don't want to. I am not interested. I have mine and I don't care whether you understand it or not. I won't ram mine down your throat, and I don't want yours ramming down mine. Why does the government get involved in these things? Religion should be a personal thing.

Sorry, it's a McCann question, but I was interested to read in today's paper that "Kate and Gerry McCann have demanded to be cleared over their daughter's disappearance after the public prosecutor in Portugal said they will not face further police interviews unless detectives can produce stronger evidence against them"

I really don't want to start another 'pro' vs 'anti' rant forum, and I'm frankly not interested in the question of guilt or innocence here. I just want to know if people think it is normal for suspects to make demands like this?.

Only 10 percent of the UK actually attend church so it surprises me that there is so much outrage. Perhaps people will think less about commercialism and food and more about the real reason for Christmas from now?

Production of the Hawaii-based reality show "Dog the Bounty Hunter" has been suspended after the show's star, Duane "Dog" Chapman, made repeated racial slurs in a tape-recorded phone conversation.

The A&E television network said it stopped production while it investigates the comments by Chapman, who runs Da Kine Bail Bonds in downtown Honolulu and whose appeal as a folk hero has been heightened by the three-year-old show.

The tape was obtained by the National Enquirer and published on its Web site on Wednesday. On the tape, an enraged Chapman uses profanities and a racial slur while talking about his son's girlfriend, who is African American. The Enquirer did not say how it obtained the tape and it was not clear who Chapman was talking to.

The recording can be heard on CNN's website

I mean - the guy spends about a billion dollars a day in a confrontation that we were basically dragged in to by Israel and the Jewish power brokers and media here in the US. Why does everyone, including the liberal Jews who's country Bush is protecting, call him a Nazi?
