Why do rich and powerful people get lighter sentences when they commit crimes, but poor people get far harsher punishment when they commit the same crimes?

It is constantly being argued that illegal Mexicans are very religious which is why they do not use contraception. They invariably have more children than they can afford.

If they are truly religious, how do they justify violating the laws that are outlined in the New Testament? Give Caesar that which is Caesars, obey all laws, and a host of other directives.

Are Mexicans 'selectively religious'? Do they pick and choose the laws of religion which they will obey as they do the laws?

Is the war in Iraq worth the cost? I don’t see how anybody could say yes! Sure Saddam was n A- Hole, but there are so many other dictator the world over that make Saddam look like a pushy girl scout peddling cookies. The war was based on lies, lies that have costed out great nation almost 3,000 of our brave young men and women. So I guess that my question is That, even though Saddam Was a Jerk was he really worth 3,000 of our soldiers, or should our resources been used for, oh I don’t know maybe invading Saudi Arabia who helped fund 9/11 and also where most of the hijackers originated from? Because those 3,000 American lives are gone forever, they were unique individuals that have never existed before and will never exist again! And the lives of there families are changed forever.

I clean my own house, farm my own land, mow my own lawn, and pick my own fruit. What jobs can illegals do for me that I cannot do?

Are pro illegals saying that this work was never done by anyone except illegals? If so, read some history.

Would you vote for a lesser penalty fo petty Marijuana possession?
I'm not talking about decriminalizing marijuana, but marijuana possession in small amounts would not result with jail time and the loss of scholarships and federal financial aid for students, but instead would be a large fine. A lesser penalty and still illegal.

We all can probably agree that the United Nations is not as effective or capable as it was intended to be when it was formed. What role can the United Nations realistically play in the world to make it a better place? How can it be changed to make it more effective? What are its limitations?

According to the dictionary, liberal is possessing or manifesting a free and generous heart: Appropriate or fitting for a broad and enlightened mind: Free from narrowness, bigotry, or bondage to authority: Opposed to monarchical or aristocratic rule.
Now what in the world is wrong with that? At what point did this become un-American? Anyone have any thoughts on this?
