They also say that they are being attacked by a bully and that Israel took there land

But the Israelies say that the hezbollah have been attacking them for years and that they should be taken out....

You have all hear news stories supporting each side.....

My question is....who really can say that they are defending themselves??

I asked this question to a group of people once and was amazed that people were fighting with me to not have a public holiday on Election Day in November. They came up with all sorts of reasons to go to work. Are you completely out of your mind? I am suggesting a DAY OFF, a freakin' HOLIDAY every 2 years for elections and you would argue and stress that you would rather be at work than anywhere else? How brainwashed is the American public. I don't see too many people fighting to go to work on Sundays.

What are your thoughts?

Should there be a day off for us to go and vote, like many other countries, or should we just take the chance and get to the polling station after work?

It seems that no African government can get its act together. Corruption, starvation, and persecution are all rampant. Was it better for Africans when Europeans were running the place?

Or do you think that their next target would be the United States and then their most out-spoken advocates Europe?

Is it within department policies or is it legal for a police officer to call someone from a private number? I got a call from a cop yesterday, but I didn't answer because my caller I.D. indicated "private". The voicemail I got from that seargeant was that I had to return the call, (don't ask me why, thanks) which I did, but it was a disconnected number. I just want to know if when someone gets a call from a police department, should their number appear or are they also allowed to use private numbers?

Since other countries are working on this medical technology,
it means the wealthy will be able to fly off to a foreign country
for treatment, while the poor will die off.
Is this just another plan to get rid of the poor, esp, the sick poor?

Yes, I did see a program where a young boy was cured of
leukemia with stem cells. Progress is being made.
I think this will throw the U.S., lightyears behind other countries
with medical research. Very sad.

I commend you all for everything that you have done and are doing! You should be someone to be looked up to. You all are my true HEROES and there is nothing but respect in my heart for all of you. I don't know anyone that is currently in the Armed Forces but my father was a Vietnam Vet and I know what he went through. I know that it is not easy and will probably never be but stay strong.

He left the dog in the house for 4 - 5 days at a time without being checked on. The dog urinated/deficated on the hardwood floors and carpeting and chewed on every piece of furniture in the house. Has cost me approximately $1,100 just in cleaning and hauling of destroyed furniture. Renter has abandoned the property and has left no forwarding addresss to which I should send his personal belongings. Do I have any recourse with respect to collecting on damages done to house ?

It would be imposible in some states to discern illegal from legal, but around here they stick out like a turd in a punch bowl! I'm from California so I can tell you the difference almost at a glance. The few times I might be wrong would be because of false documentation. I grew up watching the American Latino kids pick on illegal kids which were actually better mannered because of their status. Illegal status was no secret in California and I can pick em' out. So let's start with the obvious. If your Legal, don't be so arrogant as to toss a fit if your asked for Identification. If you fit the discription of an illegal try and assimilate a little more and get over it! Too sensitive to show proper identification? I show mine every time with nothing to hide!
