After reading this story, I don't know what other conclusion is valid:

Using a puppet to state that "You and I are laying the foundation for a world led by Islamists" is hardly a method by which to incite peace between all peoples.

Free Paris!

That's the message in an online petition asking California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger to pardon the hotel heiress from the 45-day jail term she received over a parole violation.

What do YOU think of this? Should she be pardoned?

The losers are rioting in France. When lefties lost here in 2000 and 2004, they blamed fraud, Diebold, 'voter intimidation,' etc and the media calls the winner 'divisive.' When they lost in Mexico they rioted for a month. Now they are doing the same in France. This reaction reminds me of when my toddler throws a fit on the floor if he doesn’t win at a board game. Do they just think that power is their birthright, and if they don't get it there must be some other explanation than that the people don't want them? Why do you think lefties are such poor losers?

The US had an election in 2000 that had to be decided by the Supreme Court, and the guy with the most popular votes didn't even win, and we had no riots in the streets. Makes you wonder why the French think they are more civilized than anyone else.

Iraq facts - cost $370 Billion to date of our Tax Money ( Or borrowed and neeeding to be paid back in future )
This money could buy the following in the USA
1 million teachers for six years
8 million police for one year
6 million port inspectors to protect our ports (99% of freight enters country this way )
700 elementary schools in each and every state

Not to mention the billions lost to fraud and theft.

Or, the over 3,0000 American dead soldiers and countless Iraqi's dead.

Does anyone , republican or democrat, really believe that this money was well spent? Or, do you believe it was largey squandered by an incompetent government?

Guns, Guns and more guns! If it's not Iraq taking the lives of the US people it's guns in colleges. Anyone think this is getting a little funny?

Recently a terrorist organization began showing a propiganda film, using a character that looks very much like Mickey Mouse to spread hatrid and racism. (you can see the video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=syUOIARPKs4)
What is your opinion of this?
Should the Disney lawyers be our next wave on the war on terror?

I would like to know how many people think these guards went too far. I do not know why they call them police, since I think they are better described as security guards or peace officers.
My own opinion is they did their job. If I were on patrol with a coworker at 2 am, and someone jumped out from the Bushes, I would think about not shooting to kill. If the teenager grabbed my fellow employee by the arm and neck, tried to get her gun, and threatened to kill her, I think I would shoot to kill at that point. I understand her partner yelled at him repeatively to stop. When he did not stop, her partner fatally shot him. I know for the mother, there is nothing worse than losing a son or daughter. My sympathies go out to his family. But why was a 15 year old out on the street at 2am? Why would he attack one of two armed guards in a bus parking lot? For some reason, this tragic child was not in his right mind. If they shot his leg,it might only make him mad. Just my humble opinion. Yours?

They say that there is a shortage of gas, and that is why it is so expensive. Bull!!! I find it hard to believe that when people are traveling (summer and winter breaks, Spring Break, holidays, etc.) gas prices go up and otherwise, it stays the same. Funny that we have a "shortage" when it's traveling season...no?

In New York, they have found that the recent trooper was killed by friendly fire, this has happend in New Jersey and I think Pennsylvania as well. Why is it happening, are the police gun happy or just improperly trained?
