There are many Muslims who have spoken out against the terrorism in the Middle East --

Where no one but Muslims can see them.

Most Americans get their information from the Media, so when they don't see the Media showing anything about Muslims protesting against the terrorism they draw a conclusion that Muslims seem to accept the terrorism.

Isn't it ironic that the Media seems to capture all the bad moments on film -- As if the camera was just all of a sudden there -- And yet there is nothing about what Muslims around the Middle East think? (Not just the ones in Iraq and Iran).

I know from personal experience that many Muslims really do speak out against the terrorists but are incapable of being heard considering their no where near America where the people WANT to hear this.

So many people have had personal experiences like this (See http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AqSqiebIXF_jo2bStOzcwK7sy6IX?qid=20061228014508AAMKOR6 for more information)

do you ever wonder if reporting crimes actually work? lets say u report someone for using stolen credit cards to buy things. do you think the cops will take the report seriously or will they just brush it off?

LONDON, Dec. 28 (UPI) -- Britain may institute a new law that says men can be charged with rape if they have sex with a woman who has consumed alcohol.


ok this is getting too much. I say, if this the case anywhere, then make it 1) a law that women who sleep with men who drink are arrested too, and/or 2) women are no longer allowed to drink with men.

what do you all think? would that be fair?

I have seen some people quote a poll number saying that about 85% of Americans believe the government was involved in the planning of 9/11. I am not sure how much I actually believe this number (seems very high to me) so I will ask the question: What do you think happened, which scenario do you believe out of the next five.

1. The government beyond a shadow of doubt did 9/11

2. It is likely that the government did 9/11, but could have been Muslim extremists

3. I don't know

4. It is possible the government did 9/11, but unlikely

5. A bunch of pissed off Muslims did 9/11, end of story.

I have a project that requires me to interview a law enforcement officer or investigator, corrections officer or investigator, and/or probation & parole officer or investigator. Would anyone within those fields be interested in helping me? You can either email me at griff030@yahoo.com or jbarnett@email.itt-tech.edu if you would like to help me. I would like the actual interview to be done on Yahoo Messenger or AOL Instant messenger.

He keeps saying that until i'm 22, the courts own me, and can dictate where I live and stuff..... and that doesn't seem like it would be legal to me <_<

And I plan on moving out when i'm 18 and he keeps saying I have to live with him until the court papers are changed or I turn 22, What is THAT all about? Everyone I talk to about he says he's lying about the whole thing.

Anyone got any info about this?

Over the holidays my parents informed me that I was to be executor of their wills because they think my brothers will fight if one of them is named executor (I'm the only daughter). So what exactly will I have to do? They have always farmed so they own almost 1,000 acres, plus farm equipment and livestock. Am I going to have to deal with all of that?

I'm 18 and was involved in an online relationship with a girl that i thought was 19 for a good couple months. I became infatuated with her and ended up failing my first semester of college pretty much. I thought i loved her. Then a couple days before she decides to come down and visit me finally, she tells me she's actually 12... And pretty much the whole person i "thought" i knew was false in every way, background story, family, ethnicity... All the pictures she showed me were of her friend, who actually had the same name also but moved out of state. I was emotionally destroyed. I couldn't believe it. I also payed for her phone bill once.. I'm just so emotionally recked.. i just want to know if i can make a legal case out of this.. Don't flame me please.. i know how stupid i am.. any advice is appreciated thanks.

I was involved in a accident, The police officer said i failed to yeild the other driver. There was no car insight when i turned. I was told it would not be my fault if the driver hit my car anywhere from the back to to the bumper. Is this right? I did not get a ticket, but he put in report i failed to yeild. I strongly feel it was not my fault.

Should Dr. Michael Savage, host of the syndicated talk radio show "The Savage Nation" and author of "The Enemy Within" and "Liberalism is a Mental Disorder", run for president of the United States in 2008?

Mike Savage is a very straight-forward man. His compassionate conservative view on our society and nation would have positive tremendous impact on our nation. Along with preserving our nation's language, borders and our flag.
