I live in a community where a halfway house is in the approval process and I have been asked to join the protesters in a letter writing campaign. We're talking about federal inmates with minimum 6 year sentences that are being re-integrated into the community. I've read lots of arguments for opposing this, but can find very little supportinng the notion of allowing it. What are your thoughts on having a 32 bed facility in your neighbourhood?

Since you love the Iraqi war.......how many of you Republicans are going to fight it?

Don't send men to die in your place, when you can be a hero and practice what you preach!

Your hero Dick Cheney got 6 deferments to get out of Vietnam! He let others die in his place. Why are the Republicans here just like him?

This question applies to all able bodied, war loving, Republicans.

WHAT IS YOUR EXCUSE FOR NOT PRACTICING WHAT YOU PREACH, AND NOT FIGHTING IN IRAQ???

I am trying to decide what to do.
My husband and I got into a fight that turned physical a year ago. He threw me around and threatened to throw me off the balcony it was a bad situation. he had me over his shoulder and I was kicking and bit his back while i was trying to get away.
I eventually got away and was able to get out of the apartment. I left for about an hour, when i came back to pick up some stuff so I could leave for my parents I was arrested for assault on my husband. He had called the cops on me saying I had beaten him up. I spent 3 days in jail and never gave a statement. my court date is up in a few weeks and I don't know if i should take the crowns plea or fight the case. they are offering me a conditional discharge with 2 years probation.
I don't feel right pleading guilty. Yet I also don't trust the legal system, the police, lawyers, anything at this point. Supposidly the police took photos of his back where I had bitten him.They didnt take any photos of my injuries.

I am afraid that most of terrorist have noting honest to do with their religion as most of American politicians, soldiers and influential people with justice. Terrorists actualy wish to revenge for American crimes and are jealous of American live status. They cover their actions by task given from God to fight with evil. And what they did? They become like their true enemies – murderers. American people leading war with terrorism actually fight more for anything else than justice using whole U.S. community to support endless profitable war. They cover and don’t want to take care even of simple crimes commited by them and their own citizens exposing Muslim crimes as only one reason why this war started and cant end. I mean crimes like bombing citizens, weaponary selling in black market and as an tactical manoeuvre, rapes and murders, leading war much more for oil than for justice. They are also greedy for their technology power (medical, industrial, economic, military defense…).

A friend of mine from work has a sister that's been missing on a cruise liner since last week. I heard they don't search the waters if they come up missing. I feel terrible for my friend. What are your thoughts and how would you feel if it was a close friend or family member of yours found missing?

Yesterday the Pope apologized for saying Islam is violent (after they said, "no we aren't"). Today this is in the news:

"Earlier Sunday in the West Bank, two churches were set on fire as anger over the pope's comments grew throughout the Palestinian territories.

In the town of Tulkarem, a 170-year-old stone church was torched before dawn and its interior was destroyed, Christian officials said. In the village of Tubas, a small church was attacked with firebombs and partially burned, Christians said. Neither church is Catholic, the officials said....Police headquarters across Italy were also ordered to raise security at potential Catholic targets, the Italian news agency ANSA reported. However, at the Vatican, no additional security measures could be seen as tourists strolled across St. Peter's Square. "

The article didn't include something I just heard on the radio about and Italian Nun be gunned down in a Muslim country.

Give Iraq one more year to stand up for themselves and resolve their own security issues. Let them kill each other in a civil war if that's the route they prefer to take.

Bring our troops home and have them protect our borders, ports, powerplants, food supply and general infrastructure.

why are so many people asking questions such as why are muslims this, why are they that?
seriously please stop generalising. not all muslims are like that. jut because you have seen some islamic terrorist organisations and some extremem muslims on television does not mean, we are all like that.
and there is always a reason for why they act like this...you should really know the facts behind terrorist organisations like hezbollah. then maybe you would know why he is good for lebenan.
do you realise how much all of you insult our religion? maybe thats why we have to try so hard to defend it?

This is something I have never understood, except to believe it is because most Muslims are too AFRAID to speak the truth. They would rather forfeit their freedom to a band of fundamentalist thugs, ot "support" them in the mistaken belief that by so doing, they might somehow, someday be able to accumulate THINGS like many western countries enjoy! Why aren't Muslims of ALL walks of life, but most especially their religious leaders, LOUDLY CONDEMNING barbaric acts by their fundamentalist extremists? Is it because they lack any moral courage at all, or is it because they agree to this insanity? Either way, it undeniably reflects terribly on ALL Muslims. Clearly, beheadings, using power drills on people before shooting them (including infants) in the head, flying planes into buildings for NO reason, etc. are acts of the BARBARIAN and should necessitate the STERNEST response, and that response should be just as hard on those who harbor them. Bush had it right all along! Liberals are weak!
