Political parties need funding. If some egotistic, wealthy person is vain enough to pay millions just so they can have a title in front of their name, why not let them. If they did`nt donate it, it would probably have to come out of the public purse. Is`nt it a big waste of police time, when there are much more important things they could be doing.

This is directed at British people with regard to the "Terror Threat"! I simply can't understand the reaction of the British people to this "threat when they lived with the reality of IRA terrorism for 30 years. During these 30 years about 50 times as many attacks took place as were committed by Muslim terrorists. Yet never did the government see fit to bring in ID cards or other curbs on freedom. I think the government are duping the British people when they should know better. The govt currently says there are 30 active threats which are being monitored. My God whne the IRA were still in existence there was more than a threat. Bombs were going off all over London and throughout the rest of England and yet the British people withstood that without losing any part of their freedom. I lived through the "war" in N.I. in its heartland in belfast and this new "Terror Threat." is simply piss in the ocean compared to N.I. where the threat was reality!

well excuse my ramblin people but im really bored and just want to know if you guys know the real legal way, many of you say that illegals should come here the legal way, but...what is the legal way do any of you know?

well i mean yes there are legal ways but the thing is there arent many. the most common way of coming here the "legal way" is through a turist visa, but even with that you just a tourist and you cant apply for school , work nor get a drives license and you cant get become a resident by just having a tourist visa, even staying here with a tourists visa for more than a year is a crime, then there are the other ways such as work visas but those are limited to certain people. the point is that work visas are not available to everyone who just wants to come here and work, and you cant get residency unless your parents are US citizens or residentsm, get married to an American or you are a nurse or have a degree in the field of medicine.

I changed my phone number and she hasn't called since... but now co-workers are telling me she is peeking in the windows at work looking for me & I don't feel safe out in public. She hasn't directly threatened me, but I feel harassed. He and I are done and over with and I just want her to leave me alone. What can I do? Do I need more substantial evidence that I'm being harassed than this? Or are the witnessess at work enough? How much does it cost to get a restraining order?

I wish I could make this short, but I need to prove my point if i'm accusing the head of Homeland Security of aiding terrorists, so please read on.

According to a June 20, 2000 article in the The Record of Bergen County, New Jersey, Chertoff successfuly defended accused terrorist financier Dr. Magdy Elamir,a man later suspected of financing the 911 attacks.

When Chertoff defended Elamir, he was already accused of terrorist financing and was a known Pakistani arms merchants who sought to arm Osama bin Laden with conventional and nuclear weapons.

As if that were'nt enough, After 9/11, as head of the Criminal Division of the U.S. Justice Department, There is evideence that Chertoff shielded Elamir from prosecution in his terrorist case.

Michael Chertoff -Defender of Terrorism?

First my understanding: We are granted "freedom of speech" in the Constitution. However, I know that there should be a proper way of acting in public. There should be guidance for children when they are exposed to things that may seem inappropriate, such as nude sculptures in a museum or certain television show material. However, as adults, do we need other people to tell us what we can or cannot say in public? Sure, it looks bad when someone is speaking like a sailor, but then again, a sailor speaks like that because that's how a sailor speaks. If I wanted to use 'colorful' language on this forum, and if it offends anyone, why should it be blanked out and my original thought edited? Can't the other person choose to not read my comment and move on? I think that Americans, and it's mainly old Americans, are too uptight that they want to turn back the clock to a time when supposedly nobody cursed or exposed nudity. Can't people just grow up and accept other's thoughts?

POLITICAL AND STRUCTURAL VIOLENCE
IN KENYA

On 29 September 2003 Tom Mshidi the General Director of East African standard and Divid Makali the chief editor of Sunday Standard were arrested by the criminal investigation department officers (CID) in Nairobi according to Nairobi’s Central PPO, the two men published alarming Newspaper article implicating senior Government officials in reference to the planned execution of Dr. Crispin Odhiambo Mbai.

However on 14 October 2003 Tom Mshidi and David Makali were set free on a bond KSh. 500,000 and a surety of a similar amount.


POLITICAL VIOLENCE
Yet in another closely related incident the government was supposedly partially blamed wherby on 26 October 1981 Mr Adan Hassan populaly known as professor Hassan started his own carrier in Nairobi University as a lecturer in economics 8 year latter he was promoted as a professor in political science and economics for his hard working and started participating in political rally meeting with the opposition members

But unfortunately on the 27 of February 2004 professor Hassan was found dead with 3 bullet in his chest.

According to Newspaper articles published on the 19th of May 2004, it was believed that professor Hassan’s death had something to do with the his political life and the people who were involved in his death.

A statement which was made by the journalist who published that article says that they paid an amount of money so that the article can be published and he was too close to the family before his disappearance on the 22 of may 2004.

The question still remains can people who commit heinous crimes and are still working for the Government ever be brought to book?
