Where would I go to find out what the laws for detaining a person is... in the state of Texas...
I know someone who is facing extradiction from the state of Colorado... this person (a woman) is afraid to be brought back to the state of texas... (due to the fact that last time she was in the county jail facility in a very rural/small county in texas... she was raped, beaten, and worse)...
Could someone point me to a website containing the detention codes, penal codes, and other things of the sort... for the state of Texas...
Thanks...

I realize politics is mainly about who you know, but education doesn't hurt. I am considering doing a joint-degree program in which I get a masters and JD in 4 years. Which masters would be best for working in the political realm? I am not talking about writing papers and being an "expert in the field". I am talking about staffing big names, or being a big one. I'd like to either staff or become a candidate someday.

Would this be a good, just and universally welcomed way to help rebuild good will for America and for the United Nations and really help suffering people?

I think they would be especially needed and welcomed in Iraq and Afganistan but also in all nations suffering from war, hospitals are needed in peacetime as well, but especially in times of war So they should be some of the first things built in reconstruction efforts right?

I'm thinking that hospitals should be located where they would be close enough to help the greatest number of wounded people, especially civilians, but far enough away to keep them from being directly in the line of fire.

I really think this is truly the right thing to do, but I'd like to hear any reasons it isn't, thanks.

We all hear of the term "terrorist." But, what pops into your head when you hear the term?

""Lam "sent a notice to the Justice Department saying that there would be two search warrants" in a criminal investigation of defense contractor Brent R. Wilkes and Kyle "Dusty" Foggo, who had just quit as the CIA's top administrator amid questions about his ties to disgraced former GOP congressman Randy "Duke" Cunningham.

The next day, on May 11, D. Kyle Sampson, then chief of staff to Attorney General Alberto R. Gonzales, sent an e-mail message to William Kelley in the White House counsel's office saying that Lam should be removed as quickly as possible, according to documents turned over to Congress last week.""

I really don't care how other people feel towards the President. I just want to know why they come on here and post blatantly false and even incredibly offensive things about the guy and expect people to give them real answers. If you have an opinion why not just go to a forum or shout out the window. It just makes it more annoying to find real questions and answers. Ignorant people feel free to respond.

I mean between the Shi'ites the Kurds and the Sunni's Does this seem like a good fair and just comprimise between the smaller and the larger of the groups? I'm basing this on the way the United States reached a comprimise between large states and small states on representation during it's formation, with every state equally getting two seats in the senate and each getting population based representation in the house. Does this seem like a good idea and would it at least get one problem sloved???

Iraqi police found the decapitated bodies of nine policemen with their hands bound and bearing signs of torture in a town near the city of Ramadi, (68 miles) west of Baghdad, where al Qaeda militants have a strong presence, police said. The USA military was in the area but did not respond due to knowing the war is going badly. Many troops say this will end up like another Vietnam.

if ordinary citizens detained illegals and put them up in a fence and kept them till ice finally arrived we could solve the boarder problim we would have to document the call to ice and boarder patrol and what time they arrived to take possession.
we have a right as americans to form a militia and protect our boarders. that would be where the weapons come in to deal with armed criminals and drug dealers and i bet a few of us would like some payback with drug trafficers! what is your opinion

I watched the march and rally at the Pentegon yesterday. ALL of the speaches praised various enemies of the United States. Hugo Chavez was praised, Fidel Castro was praised, radical muslim terrorists were praised, Hamas was even praised! Holy cow!

They also strongly advised NOT paying your taxes! This was a peace rally? And while most of the attendees appeared to be pot smoking youth, or old age hippies, it was unfathonable to me that they were chanting for a violent revolution.

Can't we lock these people up? can't we hang them for treason in a time of war? Isn't inciting revolution a crime?

Where was the "peace" part? These folks are absolutely nuts!

Thank you! Do it again! You are handing us another election, you weirdos! No one's ever claimed these wackos were smart, but I certainly hope they keep it up. marches like that destroy all credibility of the left, and I for one hope they continue, frequently!

Why would they go that route? Seriously?

A society based on fear. I would rather be blown up by Terrorists than give up my freedoms. I find it hard to believe that the American people are just passively giving up peice by peice their Bill of Rights. Am I crazy to think this way or is there something really going seriously wrong with my country?
