So, if someone in South Africa (it is usually a government official, from the accounts I've read) is accused of a crime, whose choice is it to try the case in a traditional court (instead of a regular court). I ask because in every news article I have read, the traditional courts only fine the guy 4 or 5 cows. For someone that has embezzeled a lot of money (or committed bigamy - possibly legal?), this seems a little low. Anyone know?

When a terrorist group produces a video, audio tape or sends one of their regular messages, are we rewarding them with just the publicity they seek?

Should our leaders act like PR agents by reminding the world that terror groups can strike at will & kill us? Why boost their morale by spreading fear? Why don’t we smear them, spread misinformation, belittle them or just ignore them?

Why do we respond to those that hate our freedoms by removing the freedoms they hate?

Why are Bin Laden & Co treated like military Generals? They're pathetic traitors & betray the people they send to die in terrorist attacks

Why reward Bin Laden with every newspaper & TV headline, just because he recorded a 2 minute audio tape calling us infidels. It’s pathetic

I’m fed-up of seeing politicians act like cowards by telling us that terrorists are powerful & can penetrate our national security at will.

I’m fed-up of our leaders reacting to people that hate our freedoms by pushing policies to strip freedoms

My friends and i who will remain anonomous wanted to start an anarchy club in our school. We wrote up a manifesto, showed how we are pro-peace and have no means of violence and that the club is about radical politicle views. Now many of you may hold onto the belief that anarchy is about overthrowing the government or violence, or destruction. The club is also for dispelling rumors of what anarchy is. yet our principle said no and refused to tell us why. i say ASK QUESTIONS, DEMAND ANSWERS! what do you think? any advice or solutions, perhaps just some thoughts on the subject?

i know the basis of these cases but i don't know how they expanded individual freedom.

1. mapp v ohio
could it be protecting individual privacy?

2. miranda v arizona
could it be that no individual can be convicted without a trial?

3. roe v wade
could it be privacy?

thanks for the help.

ok ok here is the details.

Today I was pulled over with a group of cars in route to a "toys for tots drive". We were driving 35 in a 40mph zone so the motorcycle cop decides to pull over the person ahead of me. So I decide to overtake but then realize he is flagging me down as well.

So we all pull over, (a group of 8 cars) and he comes upto me and says "license & registration". I then give him my registration and as I am doing so my cigarette falls out of my hand in front of the cop. So I then goto pick it up, as I am doing so he said you might want to pick that up. He then proceeds to cite me for it.

Q1: If you pick up the unburnt cigarette does this still apply?

Q2: How/What would be a way to fight it?

Thanks! -Rick

I think it does.

Consider this: Barely won back control of house and senate in spite of major republican misbehaving. This would suggest a losing position on the issues. Republicans just need to do some housecleaning and they will win big. Dems on the other hand have a short time and a hostile white house to attempt their latest schemes. Thus, stalling benefits republicans. Why not give up a little on the goal of socialist nirvana?

Is all you see is that bus full of nuns being hit? Are you all so perfect already that you can be so judgmental? Guess what, I already paid my debt for the offense, which was driving at .095, a few short years ago was leagal in mo. Why so many self-rightous ninnys on a soap box? I live in the woods, I've been without my licencs for two years, my small bussines is faltering as a result. I was not pulled over for swerving or driving iraatically. Am I a long time drunk who finally got caught? NO. I went through a rough two months at which time I got a dui. None before, none since. So many haters, heres another cold fact, I used to race stock cars and dirt bikes. I am an enthusiest, I have skills. At .095 I have no doubt my driving skills are far superior to any law enforcement officer in the union, I accept any challenges. So many haters? I guess it's a result of ignorance, and a mob mentality. Or maybe it's a bunch of sissified conservatives who couldn't find they're A_r_se w/ both hands
