I stole some designer gear (Armani, Versace) and hoofed it out for a good price. Now the guy I sold it to says it's all fake and he wants his money back, which I've spent. Do you think that the guy I stole it from should pay at least half as it's his fault I'm in this fix?

It is the product of centuries of social, political and economic inequality, imposed by repression and prejudice and frequently reinforced by bloodshed. The hatred is not principally about religion. Sunnis and Shi'ites may disagree on some matters of dogma and some details of Islam's early history, but these differences are small--they agree on most of the important tenets of the faith, like the infallibility of the Koran, and they venerate the Prophet Muhammad. Despite the claims by some Arab commentators, there is no evidence that Iraq's Shi'ite extremists are trying to convert Sunnis, or vice versa. For Iraqi fighters on both sides, "their sect is nothing more than a uniform, a convenient way to tell friend from enemy," says Ghanim Hashem Kudhir, who teaches modern Islamic history at Baghdad's Mustansiriya University. "What binds them is not religion but common historical experience: Shi'ites see themselves as the oppressed, and they see Sunnis as the oppressors."

Unfortunatly I mixed the date up for renewal of my road fund licence and recieved a £60 fixed penalty notice which I paid. I have now had a demand for another £50 from D.V.L.A. Is this right as I am being fined twice for the same offence.

Last night, I was at my boyfriend's place and I got drunk. When I was drunk, I started taking my clothes off and after I got a little sick, I went to the bathroom, while I was in there, I didn't realize until I saw him thatmy boyfriend had opened the door and was filming me. I didn't want him to do it so I started screaming at him, because I don't want just anybody to see that. But when I'm drunk, I tend to forget things, and I don't know if he erased it or not. What should I do?

Make them join the military so that they can live in America. Offer a deal and say: you cannot live in America untill you have joined the American military for four years. Would that be a good idea, i dont neccesarly think it would be a good idea but i want to see what you think.

Rush has been crucified for 3 years because of his painkiller addiction, now we hear "let's be compassionate for Patrick Kennedy" Where was the commpassion for Rush? At least Rush wasn't out driving a car where he could of killed someone. This double standard, one for conservatives and one for liberals has got to stop. Patrick Kennedy should resign his position immediatley. He has got to be held to a higher standard being an elected official. Rush is a talking head who does not make US policy. US policy while stoned out of his mind on oxycontin. Come on Dems, where is the righteous indignation. I challenge the Democrats to demand Kennedy resign.

I think that if they did ...and the results made public... there'd be quite a few more G.I.s around today and the US deficit would be a tad smaller too.

The very wise elected officials of the USA long ago determined that immigration to the US be permitted based on judicously determined quotas, by which every country would be allocated an amount of people which could apply for immigration,and upon complying with the conditions and applicable regulations,they would be welcomed into the U.S. My own parents entered that way, and were given documents attesting to their right to enter and participate and assimilate into a mixture of the cultures of the world..They went to their graves praising and blessing the U.S.A.for permitting them entry,never denouncing,demanding,demonstrating or in anyway demeaning or ridiculingthis country..Now the balance of our population based on the countries of the world, has been grossly skewed/distorted disproportionatly. No one really has accurate figures,but I have heard that between 20 and 30 percent of our population is composed of Hispanics, and probably half entered illegaly. To continue is ridiculous!!!!
