Why are we so worried about regulating rules for war? It makes no sense to me to fight a war with limits, does it?

ok it all starts with me and my friend going to walmart about 1 month ago and he ends up stealing something and i didnt know that he did..well once we get near the exits the security thing goes off and he says run so i just run and we leave away from walmart and never been back since...not sure if cops got called or anything but we just have never been back..
well unfortunately i need to get new contacts and i have to go to walmarts eyevision center to get them which is like a 2 second walk once you get into walmart....im concerned about whether or not i may get into trouble if i go in cuz we have never been caught or anything .....

Well my question title really sucks, because doing so would require a huge change in society not even hinted by my question...

It's probably better not to explain more anyway. Tell me what you think about this idea, and how oyu think it may work, or why you think it never will.

I think that it is a great idea that will never work :-)
Any other opinions?

Star Spangled Banner isn't that moving. We need something like the Imperial March (Star Wars).

While the story leads to our current conclusions. The facts take us somewhere totally different. What if the goverment has a bigger role in 911 than what we currently know? Why are there so many coincidences? Why are there so many inconsistencies with what we've been told?

If you have not done your reasearch regarding the other side of the story, please dont spread your ignorance. Become informed, then anwer the question

You are at home, and Osama Bin Laden's car breaks down in front of your house and he comes to the front door and asks for gas.

would you call yourself American?Or would you say," I'm of (lets say) German decent"?Would you proudly proclaim your American citizenship?Why would you leave this country anyway?Would you fly the American flag on the 4th of July?Would you still celebrate Thanksgiving?


Would you completely assimilate to that country's culture?

this question is aimed mainly at a certain faction of people, I am and will always be an american......I'm trying to make a point.....


To call myself german american, and hide behind the fact that I am of german decent. should I get free stuff just because of what germany did in world war 2? should i speak german and not english, fly my german flag over the american flag, take german holidays off work, and do nothing but drink beer and eat sauerkraut all day? Or should I consider myself an american citizen, born and raised, and be proud of what I am and who I am? I welcome all snod remarks about my heritage.......

Loyalty to Politcal Parties rather than Ideal has always been the downfall to Democracy. For example the National Socialist German Workers Party (Nazi Germany) Communist Party (Soviet Union, China, N. Korea, Vietnam, Cuba, ect ect).
People Today will vote based on Party and not Belief, which is sad the Majority of Americans I believe are Socially Liberal and Morally Conservative which is only represented by a handfull of Congressmen and Executive Officials. The Rich determining the Plight of the Middle/Lower Class, hopefully my generation will make up for the Failures of the one that is in Power.

A sheet vinyl floor installation in my home went bad within a few weeks. Every edge and seam separated and curled. The installer would do nothing. The BBB accepted without verifying the statement of his wife that the company is no longer in business. Lisa Madigan's office referred me to small claims court. If I file, and the statute of limitations has run out, I will have paid court costs for nothing. I live on Social Security and can't afford throwing money around. So I have been trying for MONTHS to find out the statute of limitations on this kind of civil dispute to be heard in small claims court. But so far, I have not been able to get the info off the internet. I admit I probably don't know the right ways to search: I'm no spring chicken. I would be so grateful for any help I can get. Maybe there's even an attorney out there who knows the answer and can just TELL me what the limitation is.

I have tricare. I truly feel like the doctors are pill pushers. In my experience they give you a quick fix for your problem with drugs and don't care about solutions.

BEIRUT (AP) - Israeli's military struck Lebanon's largest Palestinian refugee camp early Wednesday, killing at least one person and wounding three others, officials said.


Okay this has got to go from war crime to atrocity.

If they stick to thier Hezbollh story then they think the world is stupid .

Send in ground troops then - do it stop the air strikes of refugees and other civilains .

No wonder they murdered the UN observors in yet another famed "accident" what else are they doing with that post out of the way.

has anyone heard this crap? lindsay lohan wants to go to iraq to entertain the troops? how much more of an attention whore can she be? i guess she thinks it will make people respect her by doing that. i really don't believe she gives two sh-its about american soldiers in iraq. she just wants to improve her image since she's always getting bad press. it's f-ucking disgusting.

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..........................

There is and was an even worse perception after Katrina that a lot of Americans seem to embrace racist doctrines twords some ?

Is that true?

Please don't tell me about the rules and ther things written on a piece of paper - I mean the attitudes and the practices of the public on the whole .
