This a police report from the Minneapolis police department.
There is a little box that says inj. sev., and in the box is the letter B. I assume this means injury severity: B. But what does B refer to? Does anyone know?

In a nutshell, here are my policy ideas...

I'm for marriage for everyone, Gays, Lesbians, Straights.
I believe religion has no place in legislation.
I believe in our citizens' right to keep and bear arms.
I WOULD NOT open up the Arctic to oil drilling.
I WOULD encourage any and all alternative fuel methods, like fuel cells, etc.
I am for the death penalty if we know for sure the person really committed murder.
Legal abortion across the board.
I would commit America to a 40% decrease in greenhouse gas emissions.
I would create a government jobs bank aimed at giving the poor and homeless jobs. Hell, most of the people working gov't jobs today don't seem to care about doing their jobs right, so give 'em to those who deserve a chance.
I would create an American adoption campaign. Adopt an American orphan, not one from China or Africa.
I would, if possible, put a cap on the price of houses and real estate, and discourage RE speculation.
Do I have your vote?

I always hear that we have a good economy or a bad economy, but I never see a difference. I am being completely bi-partisian here. Whether it was "Reaganomics" or Bush Sr.'s "recession", Bill Clintons "Boom" then "recession" or George Bush's current "Boom". Over ALL of these years, I have never been laid off, nor have I ever seen any more significant wage increases. Things have always been evenly tough financially. I would never know that we are in a recession or a boom unless I watched the news.

According to the FBI in 2005, out of all the hate crimes reported by law enforcement agencies through the United States, 1,144 were reported to have been hate crimes against Ethnicity/National Origin. Out of the 1,144 crimes reported 57.7 were against Hispanics and 42.3 were against other perceived Nationalities/Ethnicities.

Do you think that the 57.7% of hate crimes against Hispanics out of the 1,144 reported were due to the belief that they might be illegal?

that it would somewhat discourage the ignorant populace here in 'POLITICS?? I'm not one to complain without offering a solution to a problem. And, understanding the effects of advertising, I think it would somewhat deflate the hell-bent fools on here. Certainly not permanent, but it's a start. Can you be positive enough to even try?

I worked for a doctor for a year, I was fired for calling him a lyar (unrelated issue) right after I was fired he had me arrested for grand theft and claimed that I stole $15000 over the course of the year I was there, and had presented a "spreadsheet" that had the amount stolen per month ($1000 plus per month). There was an account checked the books and signed off on them each month balancing out. After spending a total of 3 nights in jail and making a plea of NOT GUILTY, I waited on trial for 2 1/2 years and was found not guilty. during the 2 1/2 years I lost wages because I was unable to go any further in my career as a medical biller because no one would higher someone with pending grand theft charges, I lost patches of my hair diognosed as stress hair loss, and was forced to re-sign my rental lease twice because I couldn't move from the county. not to mention leagal fee's and money for baby sitters during docket calls and trial. Is there any thing I can sue for???

When it comes to government's use of money, the word taxpayers' money is very common. Perhaps its implication is that governments have to spend money carefully because the money is not simply for those in power to waste.

However, sometimes I also see the word 'goverment money', and then, 'state money'.

Can anyone explain the different implications, if any, of these words?

Putting aside any and all prejudisms and just focusing on the requirements (expirience, knowledge, and support of peers) for anyone to lead the United States of America, does anyone believe Sen Barack Obama will be elected in 2008?

Would you vote for me if I said that I:
1) Held that the Suprem Court is to solely judge the legality of law and within the context of the Constitution.
2) That government is not to "Pass law with regards to the establishment of religion. Congress therefore may not pass law determining the definitions of marriage, nor participate in the sancification of marriage, this function is for the church not the state.
3) Believe in a uniform tax code where all peoples pay the same rate of minimal taxation; a flat tax.
4) Government is to remain a neutral power which takes part in world affairs only in the gravest of circumstances.
5) Limited or minimal involvement in the UN.
6) Enforcement of border security and of US law regarding immigration; both legal and illegal.
7) Encouraging US citizens to become fiscally responsible and save more of their own money and not leave it to government to perform this function.
8) In protecting the right of "Life, liberty and the pursuit of happyness". Thomas
