J.K. Rowling, Author of the famous Harry Pottor books is planning to have Harry Pottor killed in the last book. For all you harry pottor fans, and people who have connections, we need to discourage this act. For how would the story go on? How would we know what is going to happen? With all the work and bravery that has happen through the years in the Harry Pottor world, how can this be? What about the profecy? "Neither can live while the other survives"? Wasn't Rowling trying to tell us that Harry was finally going to defeat Voldemort? All of us across America who care about what happens in Harry Pottor need the help of those people with connections. If you care, help us. If your not part of the solution, you're part of the problem.

In the 80's, there was a town (I want to say in indiana, but I am not sure) that outlawed gun ownership completely. About 30 miles away, there was another town that, in reaction, made it mandatory for everyone that was legaly allowed to own a gun, to own and carry a gun.
The first town had it's crime shoot through the roof and the second town had it's crime rate drop to the lowest crime in our country!

In addition to the opening questions, can this practical evedence possibly be shown that gun control works? ( I think that the criminals will never turn in their guns, ESPECIALLY if they know that everyone else in town is disarming)

I'm not trying to be facetious....I am seriously wondering. I have never seen a response from one of these women that is actually thought provoking....just a bunch of shameless name calling. Why so catty?

If I were to write a novel on my political views and a plan that I have to start a new country somewhere away from the United States and got it copyrighted would it be considered an illegal book? Would it be considered treason because I want to leave? It is not like it is a plan to take over this country it is just to start a new one. Any input would be helpful. Thanks for answering

They are hired to spread a specific agenda by a powerful group that does not want other voices heard.

These 'tools' make outlandish claims without any basis for truth behind them.

These 'tools' pretend to be your average good 'ol boy American speaking for most of us.

These 'tools' have no real scruples or real moral fiber. Which makes them perfect employees. Only someone like a 'tool' would dare call decorated war vets 'liberal cowards' because they don't agree with the agenda.

These 'tools' show up in all popular public forums, from Project Greenlight to My Space to Yahoo Answers.

Look closely and watch them work.

Rush Limbaugh was stopped at the airport after an international flight. There was a question about some medicine that he had on his person (No one has confirmed that it was Viagra this is a rumor) the question was cleared up and he was allowed to go on his way. I don't understand why this needs to be broadcast all over the world. Give the man a break. Like him or hate him he still deserves the same privacy that we all enjoy.

My husband and I have been watching a lot of C-Span lately. We realized that we honestly really have very little idea of what the U.S. Constitution actually says. I know that most of it will not apply to the common citizen (i.e. NOT a politician or judge), but I think that it would be important to have a better understanding of this most important document. Can anyone help?

How is it that I cannot kill an intruder who is not intending me odil harm, but just to steal, but the police shoot out the tires, beat half to death (or to death) drunk drivers, or shoot bank robbers, fleeing the scene?

If we are a true government OF the people and BY the people and FOR the people, , how can ANY government department, office, or official (including police) do something that you and I are barred from doing?
The contitutuion seems t put tighter limits, not looser, on the government as opposed to the citizenry at large.
example:
I can break into a house and search for illegal items (drugs, weapons) without a warrnt but a cop (in theory) cannot.
What is going on here?

I have a 14 y/o daughter who is being harassed by a 14 y/o boy that is obsessed with her. Last night he called her cell phone 31 times between 1:30 am and 4:00 am. And he called our house phone 5 times. We have asked him to stop, but he still continues. He goes over to her best friends house looking for her all the time, she lives near him. This boy was arrested and kicked out of school last year for selling drugs and fighting. After that he was not allowed to be on school grounds. So every afternoon he was parked on the street in front of the school with his older brother.
This is something that is really scaring me. I know that he comes from a troubled home, lots of violence. I feel bad for him, but the authorities know what is going on in the house. When school starts back up again, he will be back on campus with her, and has threatened her & her friends. Is there anything I can do to stop him? Can you file for a restraining order against someone so young?

That the criminal 'justice' system unfairly wieghts charges to immiditely sway a jury, before the trial even begins?
Example:
A drunk gets in his car (drink driving) doesn't stop for the flashing red and blue (resisting arrest), he cannot drive well BECAUSE he is drunk (Reckless driving, reckless endangerment, speeding), He swerves into the oncoming lane or into the lane were a police car is (attempted murder).

and yet the cops attempt to shoot out tires (who knows where THESE stray bullets go?) or use tire spikes (again ensuring that the drunk, who can barely keep his car under control has a vehicle that is uncontrolable).
How about-murder, attempted murder, conspiracy, attempt to do great bodily harm, battery, various weapons charges.
Would not murder, by definiton be the fulfillment of the attempt, and by definition been an attempt to do great bodily harm, and be the worst battery possible?
Seems like stacking the deck, the person MUST be guilty!
What do you think?
