Look, I'm all for multiculturalism and diversity ... I love the idea. However, shouldn't any and all immigrants respect the values and traditions of the country in which they choose to immigrate to? I believe so! I doubt for one moment that if a North American immigrated to a Muslim country, they would not be so tolerant of us wanting to change their laws to suit our values. If Muslim people in foreign lands want governments to include Islam into its governing practices, then maybe they should just go back to where they came from. I'm Canadian and I'm getting sick of my government bending over backwards to accommodate them. I wish my government would take the same view on immigration as the Netherlands and start requiring mandatory integration for immigrants. If you want in, leave your old ways behind!!!!!!

When my son was 16 he sold a CD on ebay for £6. It took four attempts and afterwards was given a bill by ebay for around £150 - he was too scared to tell us but consulted his older brother who said it must be an error and to contact ebay and explain. He thought it would be fine and they would realise it was a mistake. My son took his brothers advice and heard no more until today.

Over a year later, a Debt collectors letter arrived in his name for even more - £171.25. It stated if he didnt agree a repayment plan within 48 hrs they would either instruct a solicitor to take legal action or send round a collector to make a personal visit to our home address to collect the outstanding balance. How can a company charge such a huge sum for such a small sale? Ebay's non reply indicated to him that they had accepted they had made an error.

Ebay apparently have a bad reputation for repling to emails and we cannnot find phone or address for them, what do we do if they dont reply?.

No doubt the new model will be 10 times more destructive. I just hope the Iraneans and N.Koreans do not start thinking they also are entitled to a deterrent. Only countries which are not threatened militarily have this right.

Under the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Agrement the other countries undertook not to develop nuclear weapons and in exchange we undertook gradually to reduce our own, until they are eliminated completely. Fair is fair. But of course, we did not set a time for ourselves and there are stories that our representatives came out of the room with a smirk under their moustache.

Now some of those small countries are getting ideas of equal rights! All men are created equal !...., What next?

People do not seem to know their place any longer. Why, the other day a non-descript ex colonial approached to speak to me and did not even pull his forelock. Do you see my point?

I don't even know if you will get this or not, but anyone who does should take a stand against this sicko, who under the quise of religion protests at the funerals of our slain soldiers. Don't believe me, do a search on the internet and visit his official website.

Why can't the United States be perfect? Why can't any country be perfect? Meaning no debt to the country it's self , and hardly any debt to people within the country. Barely any crime.

Barely any bums living on the street , More people in colleges.

Less depression in teens. Less murders and suicides , Less illegal downloading online. More alternative fuels.

More hybrid cars , Clean society such as , Not seeing grafiti on walls or trash every where on streets. Less obesity in children and teenagers and adults aswell.

Less brutal animal killings. Healthy society!

Why won't this happen? Will it ever happen?

I am currently a US citizen, but would like to apply for a dual-citizenship as a Canadian. My grandmother was born Canadian, but forced to choose citizenship when she was 18, and gave up her rights to move to the US. She has since passed away, so I doubt I'd be given any special consideration due to that. I've read the official websites, so I have a vague understanding of the laws. I'm just wondering if anyone has some real world experience, in this matter, they could share with me?

It seems to me that the "best army in the world" is only good at raping iraqi girls and stealing oil. you would think the U.S (Useless Soldiers) could have prevented the horrible attacks that happened today in Iraq. Iraq was better off with Saddam in power.

I'm asking this same question again just to be alittle more specific.

he's not a dealer. It is his first offension. And he wasn't under the influence. I'm not sure of the amount he had on him, but I doubt it was a large amount because he didn't have money that day, so it was probably a friend of his who gave him whatever amount of meth he had. No criminal record. And in the state of California.

How much time will he be getting in jail? His bail amount is 10,000 which I don't think is much compared to the other cases that were presented in court that day who's bail was 100,000 to 1 million
