Both OJ and Drew treat their cases as nothing more than a
tempest in a tea kettle and that everything will go away just
because of who they think they are.

Why? It can be about anything- the war in Iraq, economy, immigration policies, education system, etc. ALSO, do you feel that the US is losing its status in the world as a political and economic superpower? Does this have to do with American youth today (in terms of math and science)? (Im doing this as a personal study, not educational).

If so, what do you think?

I love this story, WHY? Cause I too have been a victim of criminals back in 1992. I was car-jacked at gunpoint while I was pumping gas in a nice neighborhood (Woodland Hills, CA). Did anyone get involved, did anyone help me...NO!!!

I'm glad that this neighbor story had the balls to do something about it. MY HAT GOES OFF TO HIM!!!

A police officer shown in CCTV footage punching a woman as he arrested her will not face criminal charges and has returned to frontline duties.
Leaked footage showed Pc Anthony Mulhall forcibly restraining Toni Comer, 20, after she was ejected from a Sheffield nightclub in July 2006.
He was withdrawn from public duty in March while the Independent Police Complaints Commission investigated.
A police source has told the BBC he is back at work and will not face charges.

This Saturday (15th December), there's supposed to be some fuel protests. How about some enterprising freedom-fighters hijack this event in an attempt to overthrow the present fascist regime and give some real power to the people?

Meet at Tooting Broadway station, 10am.

and then take control over the entire country via elections?? With the residents of the occupied territories and the Arab Israelis they could take majority control. What is missing from this theory??

I'm really confused towards the fact that we are combating terrorism and somehow iraq and iran got involved. The Iraq war was wrong and I think at least 50% of America knows that. But is Iran a threat to America Directly? I really dont think so but the media tells us some information that sounds truthful and some bull$hit. What you think? Is it really worth going to war with Iran?

Security guard justified or not?
Happened Saturday night. A masked man wearing body armor carrying a sawed off shotgun burst into a Winn Dixie grocery store with accomplices. He shoots through the roof then shoots through the office door trying to get in. An off duty Kennedy Space Center security guard saw what was happening and went to his car and retrieved his handgun. The assailant was confronted by the security guard as he (robber) was attempting to flee out an emergency exit. Here it get's sketchy but the robber ends up getting shot in the chest by the guard. Too bad he had body armor on, he's in the hospital in good condition instead of DRT, (Dead Right There)!
The security guard was ticketed for having a gun in public. Was the guard justified in the action he took?

Some anti-drinking advertising campaigns may backfire by inadvertently glamorising the habit.
Adverts which show drunken incidents - such as being thrown out of a nightclub, or passing out in a doorway - are often seen by young people as being typical of a "fun" night out, rather than as a cautionary tale.

Derek Brown also goes by Derek Brown, Greg Johnson, Harline Johnson, and Greg Harline Johnson.

This lovely person allegedly shot and killed an armored car guard leaving a Phoenix movie theater three years ago, took about $56,000 in cash, and then sped away on a mountain bike. He hasn’t been seen since.
Brown shot the guard at least five times in the head at close range with a barrage of bullets. The man—a young father—died at the scene. Brown was later charged with first-degree murder, armed robbery, and unlawful flight to avoid prosecution. The FBI is offering a reward of up to $100,000 for information leading directly to his capture.
