I was involved in an accident around May with my then boyfriend. well he called me today saying that i am receiving money because of the accident. The thing is we received chiropractic visits to fix a back ache that wasn't even major in the first place so i stoped going to the visits. Anyway well he is telling me I need to fill out a 3 page Questionaire...he gives me no details but that his lawyers need my social security number an address plus questions. I frankly don't trust my ex boyfriend at all.He has been involved in insurance frauds in the past and I am scared he is involving me in something illegal. What do you guys think about this? Should I trust him and actually sign the questionaire and receive the insurance settlement. I was also thinking that he might just want to use me and cash out the money. He knows alot of people at his local bank that do "favors" for him. HELP please...

And if you are so smart and reply with...there is a law, then contact "We the people" and collect the $50,000 reward being offered to show them the law! you can't because you haven't seen the law either. Find "freedon to fascism" and watch the video, it scares the hell out of me! what has the country I fought for in vietnam come to?

I may be ignorant of some news story on the topic, but I haven't heard of any in years . And I can't help but wonder why some people equate the bombings of some abortion clinics and the threat from Radical Islam to wipe out our entire populace !!
Sure, I know the clinic bombings were wrong, but how does that equate with total destruction . Nevermind the fact that the threat from Radical Islam is here and NOW !!!

Do you think these two are EQUAL ?? How about CURRENT and how about EQUAL IN SIZE ???

they way seperation of church and state was written it was ment not to allow the church to run the goverment or vise versa as was happening in england. so i propose we get ride of current ideals of sepperation of church and state the way they are where the church can have no represntation in the goverment and allow for the church to be allowed representation in the goverment and goverment officials to have religious ideals or background. and limit the seperaration to be not allowing the church to run the country and vise versa.

Does anyone support this idea?

Both kinds of terrorists feel they have been wronged by the U.S. government. If we wanted to we could make excuses for both. One thinks he is helping his people and his homeland and the other (Rudolph)thinks he is helping unborn children. In reality, aren't they both just as evil? Some people in U.S. though seem quick to sympathize with and make excuses for foreign terrorists and not domestic ones. Why is this?

I wanteg to leave the question - 'as is'. ...but there's always someone who'll misinterpret, sooooo I want to know if you are prepared to support the bombing of Iranian Nuclear Facilities ??

You might as well start thinking about it, cause it looks fairly likely to occur . Don't anyone kid themselves either.. .. . . The USA and Israel and 'others' will ABSOLUTELY NOT let Iran get Nukes !!
That's not an opinion, we all know that's a fact jack . And we all know that it's become tiresome and dangerous in 'playing the waiting game' !! Expect action by March or so, and maybe even sooner ! My opinion anyway .
Where do you stand ??

I was recently serving my time on jury duty like the good citizen that I am:-) But the case in question was one that I still am trying to figure out if the damages were reasonable. The case is over and the damages have been awarded so I can talk about the case if I feel like it. The story goes, there was an old lady in the Kroger parking lot walking from the Kroger from just receiving her heart medication. She was walking near the parked cars on the right, meaning the cars were on her right and on her left was the place for cars to drive by to find a space. She was walking along and noticed a car going kinda of fast to be in the parking lot, she side stepped to the right in order to make sure not in the road. Near her were two empty parking spaces. I am not sure if she was in front of the parking space or behind the spaces, but she was near the spaces involved. When all of a sudden, the lady gets hit on her left side by the car and the next thing she knows she is on the ground.

Are they deported or do they have to serve jail time? Does the government give them a pat on the back and deport them so they will run over the border to do it again?

Why is the US the only highly industrialized country without a national healthcare system? I know that the US has medicaid and medicare, but I am talking about the more extensive types of programs like the ones that exist in Canada and many European countries.

The HIV trial in Libya (Arabic: قضية الأيدز في ليبيا; literally: AIDS in Libya trial) concerns the trial, conviction, and the death sentences imposed by a Libyan court against the Benghazi Six: five Bulgarian nurses (Kristiyana Valtcheva, Nasya Nenova, Valentina Siropulo, Valya Chervenyashka, and Snezhana Dimitrova) and one Palestinian physician (Ashraf al-Hajuj (also transliterated al-Hadjudj)). Based on confessions of al-Hajuj, Valtcheva and Siropulo (allegedly extracted by torture),[1] the court convicted the six of causing an HIV epidemic among hundreds of children in a Benghazi hospital and sentenced them all to death by firing squad. However, as a result of an appeal by the Benghazi Six, their death sentences were overturned on December 25, 2005, by Libya's Supreme Court and a re-trial ordered.

The new trial began in Tripoli on May 11, 2006, and proceeded very slowly. At the June 20 hearing, the court's president denied permission for foreign experts to testify.[2] On 28 August, when the prosecution was scheduled to close its case, the Libyan prosecutor called for the five Bulgarian nurses and a Palestinian doctor to be sentenced to death. Attorneys from Lawyers Without Borders[3], who handled the defence of the six, responded by calling for the international community to request that the court order an independent scientific assessment, by international AIDS experts, of how the children became infected.[4] Such an assessment was done, an evaluation of genetic material, and it was found that many of the children were infected years before the Benghazi Six arrived in Libya[5][6][7] (see below) — this was reported after the trial had ended but before verdict was announced.

On December 19, 2006, the court announced sentences of death for all of the Benghazi Six.[8] However, this latest trial "will not be the final step in the Libyan legal process... it could be appealed again to the supreme court and could then go to the Libyan higher judicial council, which might grant clemency."[9]

It has always been illegal to encourage or help people to enter the USA illegally. But what about helping people who are already here? Examples are people who put water in the desert, or people who give food to illegal immigrants at charities, neighbors who give food to neighbors, etc. Apparently there was a bill before Congress this year that would make these activities illegal, but I have not located any information about what the current law is.
