IS THE 5TH NUMBER IN YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER ODD OR EVEN?


Supposedly, if you are a minority, the 5th digit in your SSN is even and odd if you are white! It has been said if you take a poll, most minorities will have an even 5th digit.

The USA has 12,070 nuclear warheads. It cost millions and millions of dollars to build them. It costs millions more simply to maintain them. But the last time we used any atomic weapons was over 60 years ago. This does not seem like an efficient use of taxpayer dollars. We have enemy nations that are ripe for a good nuking like North Korea, Iran and Venezuala. Why aren't we using them?

Every day, I see more and more reckless drivers, people going way over the speed limits, People talking on their cell while driving (which is illegal in our state), and nobody signaling their turns. It just seems like its a free for all out there. The cops only show up after there has been a crash or after somebody gets run over. And sometimes, it is the very police themselves who are supposed to enforce the driving laws that are the one breaking them. What in the world is going on here.?

Why is it as soon a someone asks a valid question about america you get umpteen american teenagers(at least that what the tossers sound like) shouting about nuking england. silly boys you would still be british if we hadnt GIVEN the wasteland you call home back to you. You need us we do not need you. all your trade comes thru our territory, without us you wouldnt have sh*t so unless you have a constuctive (hard to fathom really) answer stay quiet go shoot something or better still look it up first.

Should we really have had anything to do with americas stance on terrorism, when lets be fair they were rubbing shoulders with known terrorists(having dinner with martin mcguinnes bill clinton you sh*t) and funding the I.R.A to blow up our children for 25 years. typical america, World policeing they call it but isnt that what the U.N was for in the first place? just because they had one terrorist attack (albeit a bad one ) we suffered 25 YEARS of them, and what did america do other than fund the bloody terrorists

I was told that asylum seekers were to claim asylum in the first country they set foot in after leaving their own. So how come we get so many that have got off the train from france.
If this is the case why dont we send them back to the country they should have settled in.
Make it easier . STOP GIVING THEM SO MUCH MONEY

Israeli soldiers intrudes Lebanon with no concent with a so-called reason "to hunt for Hizbullah".The truth is they are technically waging a war with Lebanon and not just Hizbullah by rocketing and shelling buildings,bridges and killing innocent civilians.The truth is the Israeli soldiers are quite lucky dispite hundreds of them died after being gun down by only Hizbullah's fighter or being attack with their Katusya rockets.More of them might die if the Lebanese Army joint forces with Hizbullah to counter-offence them and the good news for The Israeli is that they don't.What if there is such thing as Jewish terrorist group inside Israel?Would the Israeli Army shelled their own backyard just to smashed some crazy local terrorist just like what they did in Lebanon to neutralize Hizbullah?I hate terrorism and terrorist group as much as everyone else but i do believe that shelling your neighbor causes colateral damage for such a reason is very indicent.Share your opinions here.......
