After 5 years following the 9/11 attacks, why haven't we as a Country, United together? It seems as though we are segregated.

This paper is pro-illegal immigrants in the amnesty sense, but even it says:

"She compares herself to Rosa Parks, the black woman whose refusal in 1955 to give up her seat on the bus to a white man sparked the civil rights movement.

But Parks was defying unjust and immoral segregation. And Arellano and her supporters have yet to make the case--aside from declaring it so--that there is anything unjust or immoral about the laws under which she is being deported.

Arellano--like you, like me--simply wants to provide for herself and her family, and she cherishes the opportunities of this amazing country. But her defiance, such as her declaration that her arrest and deportation will serve to illustrate "the hatred and hypocrisy of the current administration," drips with a sense of entitlement that many Americans find very off-putting."

Oh, and some group called 'Mothers Against Illegal Aliens" has filed for child abuse.

He is having bushes ripped out of his yard, but they are adjacent to my flower beds, which will be damaged in the process. There is no other way to get to them, other than going on my property. What recourse do I have?

I live in Pennsylvania, if that matters.

I believe that the number one goal of the 9/11 terrorists was for America to consider the attack an attack on our entire Nation. Rather than simply consider the attack the mass murder of 3000 innocent people, our entire Nation devotes most of its attention today to this terrible tragedy. Perhaps this is what these terrorists wanted.

Now our rulers have an enormous Red Herring that they use to justify aggression against other nations. Recently, children were mercilessly bombed in their own homes and cars, and I scarcely heard a peep from Americans. The Red Herring, "We must combat terrorism," has been used effectively to justify this violence. Perhaps violence against everyone--including Muslims--is exactly what these terrorists wanted.

I was in my apartment one mile south of the Pentagon when the plane struck. As smoke filled Crystal City, everyone asked, "Is our Government doing enough to protect us?" But few people asked, "Are we doing enough to protect ourselves?"
