In the middle of January, my parish's/school's priest retired after 11 years here. He was in his 60's or so. In the newspaper, there was a story about a family that wanted him "punished" somehow because sometimes he would describe people a little racially. For example, he may call a little girl "blondie" or an Asian "chopstick" during Mass, because that's just how he is. He is NOT racist, though. This family decided to go public with their opinion. They thought he was purposely lashing out at students and was giving them a bad image. The family tried to call the archdiocese and get the priest punished somehow, even after he's retired. Do you think this old priest should be in trouble for something he didn't really mean to do? Or do you agree with the family? Please give your opinion. THANKS!

I think it's great because it keeps my crazy wife from getting a gun. I swear if she had one she would have gone on a shooting rampage by now.

Men are stronger than women for a good reason. Women get all moody (especially my wife) and let their emotions control them all the time. They need men to restrain them once in a while and keep them from impulsively doing something they would regret later.

Guns disrupt this balance, because anybody can shoot a gun. People shouldn't have guns, especially women. What do you think?

I need a website showing that there is a cap on the number of people that can enter the Coast Guard. I believe it should be 45,000 but I need hard evidence. Wikipedia is NOT a credible source.Thanks.

2,360 Suspects in Global Child Porn Ring
By VERONIKA OLEKSYN, AP

VIENNA, Austria (Feb. 7) - Austrian authorities said Wednesday they have uncovered a major international child pornography ring involving more than 2,360 suspects from 77 countries, including hundreds in the United States, who paid to view videos of young children being sexually abused.

The children were under the age of 14 and screams could be heard, said Harald Gremel, an Austrian police expert on Internet crime who headed the investigation.

Interior Minister Guenther Platter said the FBI was investigating about 600 of the suspects in the United States. German authorities were following leads on another 400 people, France was looking into about 100 others, and at least 23 suspects were Austrians, he said.

Platter said videos downloaded from the Internet and seized by Austria's Federal Criminal Investigations Bureau included images that showed "the worst kind of child sexual abuse."

Gremel said "girls could be seen being raped, and you could also hear screams." Although officials initially said the children ranged in ages from "0 to 14," Gremel later said no infants were seen in the videos.

All I really know about the Coast Guard (sadly) is from the movie, The Guardian and from touring a base once in college. I want to support this man I love but I don't want to ask insensitive questions. What should be a rule of thumb for 'out of bounds' questions? How can I best learn about the CG as I have no basis for Military life? Thanks

First of all, 9/11 had NOTHING to do with Iraq. I see many conservatives continually making a coorelation between the two. The terrorists we are fighting will attack the American army when not preoccupied with sectarian violence, but, the military has NEVER had to break up a group of terrorists in Iraq or Afghanistan who were planning on attacking our homeland.
Al Qaeda in Iraq now are all just extended branches of the organization, which did not actually participate in the 9/11 attack against the USA, so don't give me crap about the need to fight Al Qaeda either.
No one is planning another attack against America, so get that out of your heads that somehow they are. OK?

i had a friend ask a question i'm not sure how to answer. he works as a mover, and while on a job, the customer he was moving started shouting and swearing at him. While he didn't go into detail, the word he used (and he really doesn't know much english), was descrimation, stating the person was commenting on the way he looked and talked.

my friend is really upset at this guy, and wants to sue, but he's unsure how to proceed.

If anyone reading this can help, i'd appreciate it.

thanks,

have been using them to do their dirty work in Israel? They sit convienently behind the scenes, and wait it out like rats. Like the British did to the Irish? We supported Ireland for their freedom here as we have supported the Palestinian. Israel and America have afforded them Billions over the years, isn't about time the oil moguls start chipping in for their step children?
