As I stated before Israel will only get us into more trouble with our friends and enemies...."Sources say France breaks with U.S., joins with Arab states demanding Israel leave Lebanon now" let Israel fight its own war.........we have our wars(meaning, America is apart-the nation is divided, and the war that is going on over 4 year now in iraq)..... lets say protect you self israel:)

When it comes to high speed car chasing, is it very common that there are many bad guys who are confident enough to think they can outsmart police deputies?

When in fact, police can outsmart their suspects, and catch them in custody.

As for kill rate, of course you get more bang for the buck with conventional weapons. Just look at Lebanon.

Are Judeo-Christian parents bigots when they take a stand against teaching our children that homosexuality is "normal," when the Scriptures those parents believe in tell us it is an abomination to God and "goes against nature?" the basis for "unalienable Rights" being "entitled?" to the "morals and values" of the Democratic candidates, and who is supporting them.
The more liberals speak, the more votes they loose. Polling data continues to show that people committed to their faith are abandoning the Democratic Party in historic numbers.
Does this mean it should be ok to force a curriculum depicting the sin of homosexuality as natural and normal, and which does not violate "the Laws of Nature and imposes this immorality on children of faith-based parents? What liberals hope, is that Americans will be complacent, silent.
The leadership of that community is obsessed by gay rights and abortion.

What do you think about population control laws? How severe do yo uthink they, and their punishments will get? It is almost a certainty that the time will come when we wil have need of them, but what do you think will happen?

I think we need to impose a law NOW that disallows more than 2 children per couple, except under certain exceptions like a person being with another person...

I know it would suck, and it seems unethical... but what about the millions of deaths that will result from overpopulation if we don;t do something? Don't you think it's worth it?
Opinions?

The systematic and planned extermination of an entire national, racial, political, or ethnic group.

So wouldn't terrorists fall into this catagory? So is genocide acceptable now? Or was it just bad when it was aimed at jewish people?

I personally am against it, unless a willing confession of a crime punishable by it is made.

If one isn't, what if we make a mistake? If you think that mistakes have never been made with this, and never will, you are... well you are wrong to say it nicely.

You know what they say, two wrongs don't make a lef-... right.

Anyway, I see death to be the worst thing that can happen to you (although I would give my life for others), so that is probably where my opinion comes from.

How about all of you?

Unfortunately I have a close friend who's cousin (who lives with them) sells drugs. The other family members don't sell drugs, but know that he is doing this. What (if any) legal punishment could be put on the residents of the house if he were to be caught?

Why didnt we just take care of the entire middle east when President Bush's father was in office, instead of sending more forces over? U know they never stopped hating us, we should have taken all Iraqi-Allies, and did what we're doing to Iraq now, so this whole thing wouldve been over by now! just wonderin if n e 1 agrees....

I'm sure we can all agree that picking a day to stop driving just won't work.........

With that said,Why not Try this?

If EVERYONE Stopped Buying gas from Exxon/Mobil(They're making the Most Money) for 1 Month I Guaruntee they will drop there Prices.

They would have to,then to be able to compete,other companies would follow suit.........

Instead of Blaming others(instead of Supply and Demand)We as Consumers need to accept some Responsibility on this Issue......

We as Consumers can set the Price by Boycotting Exxon/Mobil completely.

So What Say YOU?

Are any of you willing to Stop buying Gas from Exxon/Mobil for 1 Month?

I Stopped a few months ago.So have my Family(entire family)and friends too...........

And their telling their friends to stop.Word of Mouth can only go so far though.With all the People here,You would be surprised at the difference you can make.......

So you can continue complaining OR you can actually do something........................

I mean, it was a good idea and all... I just think we should be more flexible with it, people seem to be completely closed off to the idea of change.
Maybe this is a good thing though, maybe the changes resulting in more leniency would be for the worse.
I do think though, that we should open out minds a bit.

I'm fully prepared to the plethora of insults sure to come my way on this one, so fire away! :-)

P.S. The insults are just going to show stupidity, so feel free to allow me to disregard you. (No offense meant to people who wouldn't merely post an insulting message, that was directed solely at those who would)

I've heard, I forget where, that a 3 branch government is the most unstable, since if two start cooperating, they pretty much have control. I think we have been lucky that the legislative, executive and judicial branches all seem to disagree ^_o
I may be horribly wrong though...
Maybe I'm not...
I don't have a (complete) idea for a substitute government.

What do you all think?

I was watching the tv show The Shield and in the show the officers refer to their PBA reps. It seems that they are legal counsil appointed by the department. Is there a such thing in real life?

I didnt have a problem with the immigration issue until I experienced some of its affects. My friend couldnt get disability cause illegals were working w/ her and her 6 yr old son's SSN! When she went to the SSN office they said she couldnt do anything about it till they did something illegal with her info! The PD here dropped the case stating there were too many fraud cases in AZ and hers was less important! my kid's Early Head Start grad. was TOTTALY in spanish--mind you HS is a federally funded program that I pay for but I couldnt even get an english sentence at a function. The bilingual school system is biased and in my opinion taught incorrectly. Is it really teaching english students or aiding hispanic ones? Cause if its aiding why isnt it also helping the large Sudanese population that lives here? I went to a fastfood drive thru where the guy didnt speak english & we had to point @ the menu! people are entitled to their rights but this is gettin a lil crazy.. do u agree?
