I have recently ripped off a few tens of millions of dollars from a retirement fund and I need to get out for a few years without being tailed by the feds.

Do you believe in animal testing?...


Personally, i think its cruel to test on animals, for any purpose.
To time how long it takes an innocent and frightened animal to die, and recording how much pain they are in, is inhumane in my opinion. Researchers would get much more accurate results if they tested on humans. And what better humans to use than the ones that have committed horrific crimes?! It's the perfect punishment. Murderers and rapists should be top of the list for testing drugs, they should have the most potentially harmful or lethal drugs tested on them. Of course im not suggesting that petty crimes should be punished in such a way but the criminals that have damaged our society and taken or ruined peoples lives beyond repair, should be made to give something back to society and help save lives.


...Or do you believe in criminal testing?

Liberals- You seem to want to be thought of as libertarian yet you want a larger government. Why do you contradict yourselves? Im not saying all, but as a whole. Give me a clear concise answer please. Try to be convincing. Also tell me exactly why you think that Iraq is not a legitmate war, and that we are "bogged down" when in fact the war is over and we won and we are there as a security force against extremists. Try to convince me otherwise. Base this on facts. Also address what you think is right and wrong.

Why is it that the act of killing seems to be overlooked in the interest of protecting peace, freedoms, ways of living, i.e. war, capital punishment, and even in some cases of self defense when we as a society often condemn those who kill for other reasons to death? What is the difference? How do we justification for the act of killing?

This might seem like a stupid question but I'll ask anyway. When you commit a crime in a different state; are you prosecuted in the state where the crime is committed in or the state where you are from?

For example, I am from New York so if I am arrested for.. let's say drug possession in New Jersey would I be prosecuted in New Jersey or New York court?
