Politics & Government - 10 July 2006

The UK goverment opposition leader has just made a speech telling us that we should "Hug a hoody" they are only lacking in love and affection!
For those not in the know these kids have great fun slapping other kids about while their friends record the 'innocent' event on their mobiles and post on to others ' so a good laugh is had by all!!
They usually wear hoods on their jackets so they cant be recognised, hence 'hoodies'!
I am not saying all kids that wear hoods are punks, just the majority!
Now just maybe the conservative leader could be right, they are lacking in love and not enough hugs, so we should look for them and give them a hug, is it a good idea??

Arrested For Not Having ID...What?

Soooooooo I met this guy and he told me that he was arrested in NY for not having his ID on him while he sat on his grandfather's porch. He said that the police officers could walk up to you, ask you for your ID, and if you don't have it on you they can take you downtown. Is this true? Anybody know for sure? Does it just apply to certain places? I've never heard of this before but I thought about it relative to something else I've heard about. Just want to know if anyone else has had this experience or something similar.

InIt numbers for non citizens?

This is a number supposedly issued to individuals who for whatever reason are not eligible for or do not want citizenship. This number has been given as "proof" that illegal immigrants are being "bilked" out of benefits. Anyone have the "LEGAL" parameters of this number?

What do you think about Democrat Intel from 1998-2002?

"One way or the other, we are determined to deny Iraq the capacity to develop weapons of mass destruction and the missiles to deliver them. That is our bottom line." - President Clinton, Feb. 4, 1998

"Iraq is a long way from [here], but what happens there matters a great deal here. For the risks that the leaders of a rogue state will use nuclear, chemical or biological weapons against us or our allies is the greatest security threat we face." - Madeline Albright, Feb 18, 1998

"[W]e urge you, after consulting with Congress, and consistent with the U.S. Constitution and laws, to take necessary actions (including, if appropriate, air and missile strikes on suspect Iraqi sites) to respond effectively to the threat posed by Iraq's refusal to end its weapons of mass destruction programs." - Letter to President Clinton, signed by Sens. Carl Levin, Tom Daschle, John Kerry, and others Oct. 9, 1998

Please Read!! What do you think about this?

I know this article is a little long but please take the time to read it. I would like to know what people think about this piece and US history and expansionism. I have thought about these things as well, but have never been able to word them correctly and therefore have never really voiced my opinion on this matter. People are too quick to forget the history they defend.

What will it take for the country of Mexico to stop corruption and help domestic growth and fight poverty?

The Mexican politicians steal from the civil works projects, social programs, other legislative monetary funds distribution bills and don't get caught. They buy homes in the USA for their families. Drive around in Mercedes, Lexus's, & Denalis. All the money they steal buys high priced lawyers to protect them at all costs. I don't like living in a town that welcomes such deviance in society. Who's gonna help Mexico's impoverished who suffer from the lost jobs and income that is funneled back to the politicians and their evil greed. Mexico prospers only because of the USA.

On this site I have seen people asking "questions" that are calling for killing or harming the president. I could not stand Bill Clinton's policies but I never wished harm to come to him and I don't wish that now. Who is the party of peace and tolerance and who isn't.

Why are some people so racist?

Growing up i had many friends, middle school was the best because my friends were of very different backgrounds and races. Two were from Russia, one was japanese, one was chinese, one was african american, a caucasian and a bunch of mexicans. I don't feel i'm racist or prejudice, we all hanged out all the time, are people racist because of the way they grew up? You think i would be less race tolerable if i had not had these friends?
