Another British Question. I would like details as to how they operated when u were attacked. How many? Were they carrying weapons? At night or day? What did they want?
If u feel this will drudge up bad memories, then please do not upset urself. I just want to understand why they hurt innocent people and the best way to defeat ur enemy is to understand them.

My girlfriend...soulmate... she is very dear to me. And she needs help. She is abused by her parents, emotionally and sometimes physically. She is alone a lot of the time... I can't be there with her because we are five hours apart, in different states... so I'm going to make up for the fact that I can't be there with her by doing my hardest to get her help.

The way she is treated is a crime, and I want to put a stop to it. Please, any information about helping abused teenagers would be helpful... any organizations, or information about emancipation, anything that can help... please, I'm desperate to help her...

She has been cutting herself to relieve the stress, and I'm very worried... she can't go to her parents, they don't care.

For reference, she lives in Ohio, she's 15, she has a sister over 18, and I am 17....

Any links to any websites with information would be appreciated.... Please...

And republicans do the right thing by going out and killing everyone of the terroists that threaten our way of life? Democrats are to afraid to go to war if you ask me. They are more concerned with cutting our military budget and giving money to people who poop out kids, and are on welfare, and kissing immigrants butts.

i am sure there is no need to remind any one of what happened in 9\11 but do you remember why have Bush & the world ,following him, made war against terrorism?
they said to make the world safer !!!! ... is it now?!!! i don't think so
on the contrary our world has become worse
in terrorestic attacks 2973 victims died but in the war more than 10,000 soldiers died , please don't believe they are 3000!,
hundereds died due to terroristic attacks in UK , Egypt , Jordan .... etc
thousands died due to war itself or its sequalea in Afghanistan & Iraq
now , can we stop & think because our world really suffers

The USA is the best equipped and the most powerful. The Insurgents are just rag tag so how come American troops are getting killed?

I'm asking cuz a friend of mine was physically, verbally & emotionally abused as well as sexually molested by the directors/principals of a Montessori school that she attended from the ages of 3-4.
Because she was repeatedly threatened not to tell, she buried all memories of the abuse, Only when she was 17, suicidal, self-injuring, with Clinical Depression & other disorders & having repeated flashbacks, did she tell about the abuse.
As so much time had passed before she told, her parents didn't believe her & said she probably imagined it & it was just one of the symptoms of her disorder(s). So they refused to report it & because she was dependent on them, she didn't want to "rock the boat" so she didn't either.
Now she is 28 & unable to work or do much of anything cuz of all her psychological problems. She wants to see these perverts pay - either in civil or criminal court.
What can she do now? What's the statute of limitations for Sexual Abuse in the state of Michigan???

I've heard many people say that Democrats know how to campaign but not govern and Republicans know how to govern but not campaign. Do you think there's any truth to this?

Last weekend in State College PA I went to change lanes and put my blinker on. Apparently the guy in the next lane didn't want me to get in front of him but I did anyway. He then followed me and pulled up beside me, shouting "roll down your F@#king window!" "The next time you cut in front of a law officer like that, I'll arrest your a**!" I had no idea he was a cop and didn't think I did anything wrong. My signal was on well ahead of time and it appeared I had plenty of room to change lanes and get in front of him. How can a cop "arrest" someone for a moving violation if he is not in uniform in a clearly marked car?

Many things have changed in the U.S. since 9/11. One of the most significant is the Bush Admin.'s tactics in combatting potential terror attacks on Americans. Many of the ones that have come to light, like warrantless wiretaps and searches, secret accessing of financial and even library records, have caused concern to people worried about civil liberites. Others have countered that they're necessary to keep us safe and the concerns are overblown. 'Dead people have NO freedom' or similar arguments. My question is, what right/freedoms would you NOT be willing to surrender in order to be protected? Is there some line where the majority of people would say 'Stop! No further'. Where the fear of an emerging police state surpasses the fear of al Quaeda. What is your line?

Yes, Native Americans had it pretty bad for a couple hundred years. Recently, I have met several that reside on reservations today that get a check from the government for more than $8,000 a month in peparations for what happened to their ancestors over 150 years ago. When do tax-payers dollars start going to the Firefighters, Policemen, Hospitals and Schools instead of this? Are we going to be "repairing" this forever?

I was just curious why the presidential debates are limited to the top two contenders (Republican and Democrate)? Should not ALL persons running for the office be allowed to debate? Unless the FREE News Media AND exposure is in control?

Figures for 1999 State Criminal Alien Assistance Program compensation show claims of $1.5 billion in documented costs incurred by state corrections and local jails for covered aliens. County governments face a special burden, a 2001 report by 24 Southwestern border counties calculated. They spent, from general funds, $894 million on law enforcement and criminal justice in fiscal year 1999. Many of the costs that criminal aliens impose on all state, county, and municipal jurisdictions are not represented in such figures. To cite just one California example, San Diego now spends $50 million a year to handle illegal criminal aliens.

While anyone who decries illegal immigration is required to distinguish it from legal immigration, the effects of legal immigration should first be noted. Robert Samuelson recently wrote in his Washington Post column that "Hispanics account for most of the increase in poverty" since 1990. "Compared with 1990, there were actually 700,000 fewer non-Hispanic whites in poverty last year . . . . Meanwhile, the number of poor Hispanics is up by 3 million since 1990. The health insurance story is similar. Last year 13 million Hispanics lacked insurance. They're 60 percent of the rise since 1990." And of course a growing proportion of the Hispanic population is immigrants poorer than their predecessors. Samuelson remarks that the black poverty rate in this period has actually dropped, from 32 to 24 percent.

In the U.S. we really have some dumb laws like allowing people to be over 90 years old to drive, WITHOUT taking a driving test every year. That's dumb! What law do you think needs to be changed? Or what laws need to be added?
