I have been thinking, and White men are given less rights than Any other race. Think about it, People of asian descent are called Asian-American, people of African descent are called African-American, but people of European descent are just called "white". Why are they not called European Americans? At a local school there is a school organization for people of Hispanic and African descent, which is fine, but there is no alternative for people of European descent, and if there was a similar organization for people of European descent they would be called rascist. In the television program "Mind of Mencia" Carlos Mencia uses the racial slur "beaner" quite frequently, which aparently is acceptable because he is of Hispanic descent, but he also uses the racial slur "cracker", if a man of european descent used the slur "beaner" along side with "cracker" he would be called a rascist, sued, and taken of the air. Is there discrimination to people of European descent.

Why are so many people getting upset that people in this country are flying Mexican flags over the US flag? It's not illegal, it's protected under the 1st Amendment to the Constitution.
Just because you disagree with it does not make it wrong. That's what is great about our country, you have the right to say what you want!

Instead of writing out "Hezzbolah" why can't we call them "Hezbo's" instead? Is there any reason to "reward" this militant terrorist organization that hides behind children, women, and fires missiles into civilian populations from hospitals and schools to be called what they want? Lets call them what we want...I think Hezbo's fits them to a "T"

Some years ago, an Irishman from New Ross traveled to Washington. In order to let his neighbors know how well he was doing, he had his picture taken in front of the White House. On the back of the picture, he wrote, "This is my summer home. Come and see it."

I have a friend who signed a rental lease agreement, but his two roommates put their names down, but never signed. All three got thrown out of the house and the rental management is now taking my friend to court for the rent and utilities, but not the other two guys. Now my friend is trying to get money from the two, but I don't know if he will be able to since they never signed the lease agreement. Please help!

Why do you think it is that crimes against women and children are underpunished? Do you think that women and children aren't as important to the justice system as men?
On average, sex criminals are sentenced to 64 months in prison (thats 5 years, 4 months). Remember, though- MANY are given less than 18 months.
Robbery crimes get, on average, 106 months. Thats 8 years, 4 months.
Burglary gets about 3 years.
There are many pedophiles and rapist/sexual assault criminals in my state (NC) who only recieve probation!!
One guy had an incestuous relationship with a near-relative and received 22 DAYS.
Why is this?? Why can't we protect those who need protection the most?
What can we do to ensure this doesnt continue?

Bush sets record low approval rating. Polls even from Conservative networks show this election people want Dems over Rep 3-1.
People state over and over how horrible Conservatives have done(once again).
Even with electronic voting machines do Republicans even stand a chance?
Or will the rest of the Republicans be in Jail for corruption like so many Republicans this year?http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=3695211834018080649
