After I posed this question I was able to answer it in several different ways, based upon the attitudes of different points of views expressed by the people who post here.
I am not talking about a type of precieved peace that the people of Iraq had under saddam hussaine, where only saddams enemies were abused and murdered by the hundereds of thousands.
Throughout history there have been many such examples of that type of precieved peace. Joseph Stallin in Russia had things under control and so did Adolph and you were safe as long as you towed the party line. Millions upon millions were murdered and some people refused to take a stand.
Based on what some people have posted here in the past that type of peace sits well with a lot of people.
If you apply that same sentiment to the other oppressed people around the world today it becomes apparent as to why they are in their prediciment.
Apithy is a silent killer.
He who has the guns, not always the gold, makes the rules.

I post this question here, only because of the higher percentage of trolls and nuisance postings.

1) Do you think that if enough concerned Yahoo users emailed/petitioned/begged Yahoo, they would monitor Yahoo Answers more with regard to nuisance postings?

2) Or do you think that Yahoo Answers is just a "failed experiment;" begun with good intentions but now sadly infested with trolls and other perverse vermin?

Yahoo obviously deletes postings, but in a seeminly capricious way.

Opinions?

I'm pretty sure this function was intended to be helpful for people; not just some chatroom litterbox.

I think it is because conservatives just hate freedom.

Most Americans are WAY beyond race. Holding individuals today resposible for events that happened centuries ago is childish and smacks of denial. I believe that if the pro-illegals stopped their overdependence on the race card, they'd have little in the way of facts to support their position. What do YOU think?

My illegal husbad says if I love him I would help him with his papers so he can have a better living and support us better. We lived together for about a year then separated, but he tells me constantly to help him get his papers. He treats me nice and tries to show how much he loves me. I constantly hear stories of people in a similar situation only to find out that their partner cheated on them once they got the papers, so that is what scares me and is holding me back. Is it my insecurity, or should I trust him and help him? We're now at this point where he says if I don't help him it shows that I don't care about him and don't want a better life for him, so he won't move back with me because he doesn't want to go through the same struggles when we lived together due to him not having a job. What do you think?

As you might know if you're a history buff like me, there was supposed to have been a huge prairie province called "Buffalo" on the Canadian prairies.

Alas, the federal government panicked over the potential power of such a large province and cravenly decided to create two smaller provinces, Alberta and Saskatchewan.

My question is this: should citizens reverse the foolishness of venal politicians and hold plebiscites in Alberta and Saskatchewan for a possible re-merger of thiese two provinces?

I was charged with a crime at the beginning of 2001. Hoewever, I've heard nothing regarding this since. I'm too scared to go and ask the police in case they realise I'm worth pursuing. Can they give me a citation at any time, or is there a limit on the time from being charged, to being taken to court?

Are the Big Oil Companies suppressing the truth?

Ask yourself, who is really running the war?
Who is making a profit on the war?
Who has suppressed alternative energy, or made the cost out of reach?

Folks This is 2007, and with the advancing science technologies, something other than oil has to be out there. Plus why is the cost of a solar panel,Fluorescent lamps, and wind generators so expensive.
Only a few Hybrid cars on the roads, who can afford one, plus from reading reviews they do not help much, its more of a fashion statement. The hybrid in some road test used as much or more fuel.
