Primitive, Stale, Irrational, Despotic, Less responsive. Adjournment Oriented, Overbearing, Snail-slow, Insensitive, Arbitrary, Corruption ridden, Litigant- hostile, Politically oriented, Government manipulated, Stagnant and blind to Realities, Natural Justice and Professional misconduct, does not such an unworthy dispensation call for urgent reform in the interest of the nation and its people? Any dissent?

Was wondering if anyone could help me with writing conclusions at A level?

I am a politics student and recently took a mock exam, but struggled with providing a good conclusion.
The question was on the disadvantages of a codified constitution and the points i used were that it was hard to refer to and didnt specify where the power lies.
These points were acceptable but i was told my conclusion wasnt good enough, so i was hoping somebody could tell me what sort of things i need to write in a conclusion generally, the length etc and possibly provide me with a good example of a conclusion.
thanks

Do the British feel safer now that only criminals can own weapons, and law-abiding citizens cannot?

I know what the politicians think; just wondered how the people felt.
I understand violent assaults jumped 75% the year that legit weapons were banned.

Can police keep evidence provided by others when no crime is filled and not tell the suspect?

For several years I have been told that my local police have damaging evidence against me. The evidence was not obtained by legal authorities. I do not know the exact nature of the material the police have or the reason why someone would want the police to have evidence against me. No charges or complaints have been filed against me. My lawyer has spoken with the authorities and they do claim they have evidence against me but will not tell or show her what material they have. Other people also know of the evidence being kept.

Why be outraged by Ann Coulter calling John Edwards a very derogatory term for being gay...?

Coulter is a featured speaker at the 34th annual Conservative Political Action Conference. Some of the attendees include Governor Mitt Romney, former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee, Congressman Tom Tancredo (R-CO), Senator Sam Brownback (R-KS) and former Congressman Duncan Hunter (R-CA). Vice President Dick Cheney also attended the event.

Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney spoke before Coulter saying, ““I am happy to hear that after you hear from me, you will hear from Ann Coulter. That is a good thing.”

After she used the f@ggot word in a veiled but very clear reference to John Edwards, the audience applauded and cheered.

Is it right for republicans and their presidential candidates to cheer such hateful and despicable character assassination?

Do you support or oppose the creation of a North American union?

President Bush and giant mulit-national corporations are working to create a North American union with Mexico and Canada. This will lead to hundreds of thousands of Americans losing their jobs. Mexico will gain hundreds of thousands of jobs, and receive billions of dollars in investments. In addition, the borders between the US and Mexico will cease to exist, and the invasion of this country by millions of illegal aliens a year will become unstopable. I don't see any advantage of this union for the average American citizen. Do you?

You can find more information on this issue by watching CNN's Lou Dobbs Tonight (6:00 - 7:00 pm EST), or visit his web site http://www.loudobbs.com Also you can go here for more informaiton -

Boyfriend arrested, what happens now?

He was arrested for something that he didn't show up to court for ten years ago. His bond is a thousand dollars, which I can't afford to pay. What happens now? Does he stay in jail until his court date? Then what?
He was in trouble ten years ago for a DWYA, or something. Its like a step below a DUI. I don't think they even do them anymore.

Why not make Congressmen and Senators subject to the same Social Security and Medicare as their constituents -

If you eliminate the Federal Welfare system for Congressmen and Senators and make every raise they get subject to approval of the people in a general election, that would save Billions of $.

Is it law for BYOB establishments to determine minors from adults once admitted?

My 15 year old child went to BYOB establishment w/out my consent. She was taken by ambulance under the assumption of alcholic poisoning. Owners of this place know minors are drinking but are being protected due to the fact they are not serving acholic. Police came to hospital to write her a minor in comsumption ticket before lab work ever came back. I do not understand how this can continue to happen. Many other minors there had been drinking and many adults were contributing. Should she be the only one held liable for this? What happened to tagging minors to know if they were old enough to be drinking or not? Pay your $10 come on in and find an adult half intoxicated and have all you want is the sounds of it. Yes she should be punishedd but is she the only one? TABC has had hard times doing something since this place carries no license. The thought sickens me. The law enforcement stated Thank God she isnt here for a rape kit, its common for adults to TANK UP YOUNG GIRLS
