Numbers don't lie, specially the ones provided by the FBI, DOJ and Census that show blacks making up 13% of the population, yet being responsible for about 50% of crime. Now it is obvious to me that social programs are really not working. Too many take advantage of it, and this creates economical problems that lead people into crime. So I will write my congressman with suggestions as part of my solution to all this, though I would like to know from you what the problems in social programs are and how they can be fixed to provide a better chance to these people.

But when a doctor kills an unborn child in an abortion there are no charges filled? Murder is murder. Unless, you are a Demorat, then you can change the rules to fit as you see fit?

In discussions and debates dealing with stem cell research, I've heard abortion brought up. I don't understand what abortion has to do with stem cell research.

Embryonic stem cells are made during the In Veto Fertilization process. They use the strongest to proceed with the process and the rest are destroyed or kept preserved indefinitely. One main debate is to use these for research or not. But the embryonic stem cells are never inside a uterus. The definition of an abortion is the destruction of a fetus inside a uterus. So it seems to me that embryonic stem cell research has nothing to so with abortion, just the destruction of embryos outside of a uterus. Am I missing something?

President Bush Just said we won't leave Iraq until we have obtained complete victory, How does Bush think this is possible when Iraq is constantly being invaded by terrorists from Neighboring Countries. I am watching his speach right now...and to me it just doesn't seem possible to have a victory in a country like iraq. What do you guys think?

Yahoo News:
"U.S. and Iraqi forces raided the stronghold of a Shiite militia led by a radical anti-American cleric in search of a death squad leader in an operation disavowed by Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki.

Al-Maliki, who relies on political support from the cleric Muqtada al-Sadr, said the strike against a figure in al-Sadr's Mahdi militia in Sadr City "will not be repeated."

The defiant al-Maliki also slammed the top U.S. military and diplomatic representatives in Iraq

I currently have a lease with a roommate but I had to move out because she became jealous and ruined a lot of my clothes. I have found another person to cover my portion of the rent. The apartment complex she is and i was at, was income based. She immediatly offered me the apartment and filled out the applications once she saw my income. I am not even sure if she pulled a credit report. I told my roommate since I have found someone to move in and cover my rent, then she should sign me off the lease. But she is refusing to do that. That is the only way I can get out of the lease. I am planning on moving in with my fiance into a new place and we will be signing the lease together. What I need to know is if I do not tell them I am on another lease( I know this is unethical lying), is there a way for them to find out? As in, is it directly listed on my credit report that I am on another lease? If so, can I sign two leases?

in countries like INDIA, it is a hell to seek justice.the whole legal system is rotten.if it is true that "justice delayed is justice denied" then there is no justice in such countries at all because the court cases go on lingering for decades.policemen, court clerks, vaqils and even some times judges, all are after money only.they harass the people who approach them for justice.can not we sue such legal systems or governments, who has failed in providing justice to common people?

I'm not going to lie, he makes me nervous. I think if we had been paying more attention to North Korea instead of spending soooo much time in Iraq then we wouldn't be in such a wierd position. Their leader is crazy.

I think it would be a good idea for all candidates for national office to first be certified by passing exams in American History and the Constitution. Right now we elect any idiot who was a real estate broker or insurance salesman or bug killer, and when they get to Washington they don't know what they're doing and even propose clearly unconstitutional measures. Requiring pre-qualification woould get us a better calibre of public servant.

The entire poulation of one of the largest cities in America, Washington, DC, has no voting Congressmen or Senators to represent their issues. However, they are required to pay taxes (including the ones that support the Congress). This seems ridiculous to me. How about you?
