I dont know if anyone could answer this truthfully or not but i want to take a shot.

Back in the 90's I heard a interesting look at the F-22 Raptor.

It said that the plane had two... very interesting abilities that you dont read about in newspapers.

1. most planes when your engaging a enemy fighter you have to lock onto the enemy and then fire. I am not sure if heat seakers give off any warning but this mostly is about radar missiles. In the F-22 Raptor i heard it works a little different.

The pilot would spot the enemy plane and some how program this missile to attack that plane-target. however it would not lock its radar onto the target.. yet.

When the missile was within like 100 yards then it would use a onboard radar to lock on. This was designed i understand for minimum chance of escape.

2. The chamelion affect. I have heard there is something on the f-22 that can make it look as blue (or whatever color) as the sky around it. Someone told me it was mirrors. but

With the world having its eyes opened with the death of Alex Litvinenko - the Russian spy - from radio-active poisoning, and scientists confirming that the amount that killed him could be on top of a pin, without seeming paranoid, I can't help wondering how many air ventilation systems could be contaminated throughout London (or anywhere in the world for that matter !)

Over recent years, we have become accustomed to seeing our UK police officers wearing flak jackets throughout UK.

Are we going to have to get used to seeing our police walking around with radio-active devices instead of side arms?

How long have radio-active waste material been in UK for use by criminals?

Why choose this form of murder given it's easily detectable?

Could "outside forces" be operating to unsettle the status quo between Uk and Russia? Could it be a "copy cat" operation, given that this M.O. appears to be a "favourite method" of operation for dealing with concealing the truth...?

And if they supposedly do jobs that Americans won't do, that isn't the issue either. Illegal immigration is in fact, ILLEGAL.

There are lots of US citizen criminals who contribute to the economy. That doesn't change the fact that they broke the law does it?

So do any pro-illegals have another argument for why its okay for laws to be broken and for that to be rewarded?

"the unlawful use of -- or threatened use of -- force or violence against individuals or property to coerce or intimidate governments or societies, often to achieve political, religious, or ideological objectives"

Doesn't the American Revolution qualify as terrorism, or the French Revolution? What about the apartheid struggle in South Africa?

If the political objective is democracy, is it still terrorism? Should we attack or defend those users of terror?

Is this not just a play to erode our own liberties? Is defeating terrorism not linked to eliminating injustice and poverty throughout the planet?

My friend got pulled over and got a DUI, during the DUI investigation I(passenger) was asked to leave the car and go home (I walked to a friends nearby). A couple weeks later I received a leter in the mail stating I was charged with Possesion of Drug paraphanelia and Possesion of less than a half ounce of Marijuana. The details behind this are that after i left and he was arrested they found a pipe with some marijuana in a jacket in the back seat. They asked the driver about it and he said it was the passengers(mine) and proceeded to identify me. This is in North Dakota.

My question is how can this even occur? How could they not charge him and charge me with it. I mean it's extreme but if I got pulled over with a kilo of cocaine could I just say it was someone elses and be on my way? I am at a loss and unsure what to do. They sent me a plea offer of 1 year suspended and register with RESTORE(drug treatment) but I am hesitant to accept and this seems un-American and unfair.

Besides recessing all the time and avoiding the vote, when a majority of Massachusetts voters reject gay marriage - why are they not allowing the voters of the state to decide what goes on in the state? By the way, yes I am totally against Gay Marriage.

I said hello to one of y neighbours and they ignored me. I confronted them and they said you ignored me yesterday which in fact is true. But i'm much richer than this person and i have a right to be ignorant and they don't. I've called the police on them for trespassing on my property which i admit isn't rue, however they deserved it. I guess what my question is why are the lower class such ignaramus's?

I think its definately gonna happen! Its just a matter of time! With all of the technology involved these days, a third world war could mean the end of mankind. Alot of people say that sense the U.S. is a super power; nobody would ever attack us or have the nerve to try anything. But when you have mad men like the leader of North Korea and The leader of Iran, anything is possible. A third world war would most likely involve nulear,chemical and biological weapons. The loss of life would be off the charts. All it takes is for one man to push the button and thats it! It would be a chain reaction. If Iran attacks Israel, retaliation is inevidable. Once Iran is attacked, you know Russia is gonna back them up! And I don't totally believe that China is on our side either! Once that first shot is fired or that first bomb is dropped, its gonna be a total disaster!

First, we take all the illegals and put them in the military. Next, we send them to stablize Iraq and bring the troops home. Next, we have them invade Iran, over throw the government and take the oil. When their done we dont let them back in the US.
That will:
1. take care of illegal immigration
2. drop oil prices
3. solve iraq and bring the troops home
4 help our economy greatly
5. help our schools by not having any illegals
6. Stop Iran

A former KGB agent and Kremlin critic named Vladimir Litvinenko has just died in London after being poisoned with a rare radioactive substance. Shortly before he died, he blamed Putin. Some have also blamed Putin for the murder of Anna Politkovskaya, a reporter who was critical of Putin and his policy in Chechnya. Vladimir Putin used to be in the KGB, but do you think that this is all a coincidence or not?

as a way of saying "thank you for putting your life on the line for the U.S."... I say we give them a life pass on federal income taxes for active military service... at least for the most part... maybe up to like 200,000 a year... which would cover the vast majority for life...

everyone that didn't serve would just have to chip in a little bit more to cover it, but once it was all spread around it would probably be like $20 more a year... in the active miltary I would do that to thank them... I mean right now there is far less than one percent of the U.S. population in active service...

and also, it would be a great recruiting tool...

and just so everyone knows... I've never served... but I think it would be the least we could do...

what do you think?
