If the legal age to imbibe in California (Los Angeles County specifically) is 21, could someone please give me a logical reason why Target asks for ID for anyone "appearing" to be 40- years or older, when buying booze? Yes, it's flattering but it's also an insult. We send young men to war yet card someone who is 40 to check they are old enough to drink! That's illogical.

He's gotten a free pass for way too long. It's time we started harshly criticizing him. He's gotten us into an unnecessary war, we have a huge budget deficit, and the world resents us because of him. Use your freedom of speech, let him know that we don't approve of the job he's doing !

Minor in consumption law...what happens now?

Last week I was arrested by a police officer who believed I was drunk driving. I'm 18 years old. (side note: he never read me my rights when he arrested me). I was taken to the jail and tested to be below the legal limit for my age, and therefore not drunk driving, but was issued a minor in consumption ticket.

I was booked, but I can't remember if I was given a sheet saying I needed to go into court or not. Some people I've asked said they will just mail me a fine, but others have said that I have to go into court.

I'm in Idaho; what's the law here say about this?

You can't support the troops and not give them the tools they say they need. Liberals are trying to have it both ways, spin your way out of that one.

The War on Terror could be the most influential war of this generation. This war must not be lost. For winning this war will preserve our way of life; our freedom for ourselves and our children. Losing it would put ourselves at risk forever. Some in congress don't mind losing this war, yet somehow they are elected. Lucky for us, President Bush still tries to fight it despite his hands being tied behind his back.

Thus far, too many victims have been tallied. Too many families torn apart by suicide bombers, roadside bombs; innocent people slaughtered everywhere. And for what? Hate. We might consider renaming the War on Terror the War on Hatred.

When will we stop them and how? They are in hiding, digging deeper in their tunnels, jumping across our borders, blending into our society, working at our stores, serving us, until one day: Snap. Can we depend on our government to find all those in hiding? Can the government alone be trusted to defend us, ensuring our freedom and prosperity?

home,The woman passed on, leaveing my wife, an Inheritance.
The bulk of this womans estate, was an Inheritance, she had recieved from her brother, who passed on before her. Sale of a lake cottage, cash, made up the bulk of it. There where stocks and
bonds also. The lawyer who handled the estates of both the woman and her brother, says he's haveing trouble liquidating the
stocks and bonds that belonged to the brother of the woman.
This is holding up a large sum of money owed my wife as part of
the Inheritance. It has been 1 year and 5 months since the woman

so rick and adam are in a gym and adam makes fun of rick's shooting. Rick told adam to shut up, but didn't and rick ended up beating Adam. Adam ended up with a brokedn nose, so to get even he took his father's pistol and on the next day decided to shoot rick. So he waited until rick got into the lockerroom but he never showed up. Then all of a sudden the bell rang, and rick got scared and accidently pulled the trigger of the gun, the bullet hit a locker and bounced off and instantly killed a girl.

IS THIS a murder, felony, murder, voluntary manslaughter, or involuntary manslaughter and why?

I have a certain creditor calling my phone number and looking for a person I have never heard of. I guess it was the person that had this number before me. I have spoken to at least 5 different people from this company and asked them to stop calling me. They call at all hours of the day and night. I'm fed up with this! Any suggestions on how to stop this?

Did Bush intend this?

"WASHINGTON — About $10 billion has been squandered by the U.S. government on Iraq reconstruction aid because of contractor overcharges and unsupported expenses, and federal investigators warned Thursday that significantly more taxpayer money is at risk."

"More than one in six dollars charged by U.S. contractors were questionable or unsupported, nearly triple the amount of waste the Government Accountability Office estimated last fall.

"There is no accountability," said David M. Walker, who heads the auditing arm of Congress. "Organizations charged with overseeing contracts are not held accountable. Contractors are not held accountable. The individuals responsible are not held accountable."

If an educated person is corrupted by the influence of power through education and uses knowledge to cause harm in the community and are assasinated ,do you think they would be missed? NO.There is a class system that has developed and needs to be abolished to enshore that everyone stands one the same ground ?John F Kennedy was an innocent educated assasinated person which was killed because of his views of what america should and could be?I think there should be no compassion for the educated who abuse society and are assasinated ? Corupted educated do more Harm to society than any other?.In iraq this is a problem as innocent educated are being killed to keep the control in one organisations hands.

I asked this before, but was not satisified: What is the law that makes the average wage earner living in one of the fifty States liable to pay a federal income tax?

Somebody quoted a section from the revenue code, but it actually had no bearing on my question. I think I've seen some sections there which do make that claim.

I know what a law is. Is an Act of Congress passed on a certain date, signed into law by the President, and given a certain name such as: "The Patriot Act"; "The Davis-Bacon Act", "Williams-Steiger Occupational Safety and Health Act", etc.

So what date and what name and where is the text of the law discussed and passed by Congress, signed by the President, making a wage-earning American liable to pay a federal income tax?
