What is the process? I am wondering why because I know of one that was supposed too, did not, and for a million good reasons including being on land that is rare and it being one of, if not the last mostly intact versions of that land, should not be military.
The land is sacred to two groups, and the ecosystem is is on the top five "threatened and important"by many world preservation groups. Now they want to start bombing there....it seems nuts totally insane.
Any help...please...this means a lot to me.

If you did not start the physical fight, but defend yourself and fight back. Can you be charged? Also, if you are charged and the other person testifies on your behalf that you did not become phisical, but tried to defend yourself can the charges be dropped?

if some guy got me drunk and coerced me into having sex with him, is this considered rape? i was completely wasted. if i was sober i wouldn't even have been *talking* to this guy. he didn't use physical force but i did say no several times but he convinced me to do it anyway.

Border Patrol Agents Jose Compean and Ignacio Ramos who are currently in prison for allegedly shooting a drug dealer in the butt when he ran back across the border, abandoning 700 pounds of marijuana. One of these men was badly beaten by three illegal immigrants who were also in the same prison, just two nights ago.

I know that the supreme court decided the outcome in 2000 as I know there is lots of controversy over who actually won both the 00 and 04 elections; ie electronic voting-Diebold. But if you can, please put that aside. the far-left and the far-right make up about 25% each of the electorate. Thus, the remaining 50% are in the middle. Do not the moderates, aka "swing voters" actually decide the outcome?

He's at Fort Benning GA. One of his buddies snuck it in but he had been using it to call me. Needless to say the phone calls stopped. I haven't recieved a letter either, and I have written him 3. I don't know if he's just busy or if he got in trouble. what do you think?

Why does Bush insist on US troops follow the rules of Geneva convention in Iraq, like having US troops help save the lives of wounded terrorists who just blew up a US Humvee packed with US troops? Is Bush more worried about the terrorists or US troops well being?

a) US troops have to follow the Geneva convention (rules of engagement) & the terrorists don't.

b) The terrorists blend in with the Iraqi civilian population.

c) The Civil/Sectarian war.

d) Non stop Iranian & Syrian support for the terrorists.

e) Not enough US troops to win the "hearts & minds" of the Iraqi civilians.

f) Nobody in the Bush adminstration had a plan for figthing a insurgency in Iraq & they still aren't totally sure how to defeat it even now.

i'm sure some of u heard about the NY senator that is introducing legislation to ban the use of iPods and other electronics on crosswalks. if it does become a law, violators would be hit w/ a $100 fine.

what do you think of it? i understand where he's coming from because people are distracted while crossing the streets in a busy city and could cause accidents. on the other hand, i think the idea to make it a law to ban the use of devices is a complete waste of time. people can be distracted by anything. will they ban the use of reading something while crossing too? it's ridiculous to mandate such a thing.

how would the office even know if they're listening to anything? maybe they just have their earphones on but nothing is on. and a place like NYC, people are busy and do business while walking and talking. so are they going to have to stop at the crosswalk, finish their conversation, hang up, then cross? it's silly. also, where will the line be drawn? what ban is next?

But if you want to bring that stuff back, it will cost you. Make it so it is not worth it to move overseas. Or will this turn billionaires into millionaires again?
