I don't understand how someone can be brave enough to send someone else's child to die for a cause, but won't send their own or go themselves. Isn't that like totally hypocritical?

I don't think Congress is going to back down on this bill and I don't think Pres. Bush will sign it as it is. What might be something they could compromise on to keep the funding for the troops?

It sure seems that way. I keep hearing people say that having sex with other women when a man is married is condoned in Mexico. Well I am a Mexican and I can tell you it is not. It is seen as disgraceful and the wife will most likely divorce or get separated from him. Before you make assumptions about a culture, know it first, if you don't, KEEP YOUR F'ING MOUTH SHUT!!!

No wonder other countries hate this nation.

Wasn't abortion a method that was advocated by eugenicists to prevent "unwanted" people like the poor from being born. Many abortionists today use the same logic today, only they twist it to saying they're doing the "unwanted" people a favor by sparing them a hard life to make it sound politically correct. But who are we to judge that someone's life isn't worth living just because they might have a hard childhood. There are many people who had bad childhoods and turned out to be great people. Should we just euthanize people who are depressed or the sick and elderly on the basis that they don't have to face their difficulties anymore. Why don't abortionists just try telling the parents of a child with a birth defect that they were wrong for not aborting their child?

Then can we get corporations to listen to how pissed we are about high gas prices.
What would happen if people didn't go to work for a month and not drive their cars would gas prices go down?

I've been told by 2 people in the law field that people can't sue when your only income is Social Security. This is my mother's sole income since my father's death and since that's happened it's been hard just to pay what needs to be paid. Now a credit card company is threatening to sue when after bills she barely has $60.00 left a month.

In my opinion the Guantanamo base is a camp dedicated to torture people. According to some studies, most of the inmates are not even part of any terrorist association. What do you feel, as an american, about this? Do you agree with this?

Recently some students from my school were on a choir trip (school organized) they signed permission slips that stated if they drank alcohol they would be sent home... two of the students had a sip of some alcohol and they were sent home (8 hours away driving) via jet, alone, and more importantly at THEIR expense. Does my school have the right to do this?

i told my friend (nico) to give my OTHER friend (justin) my skateboard (a pro skateboard costing me $150) to take home over the weekend. i just found out that nico didnt give the board to justin and he is now keeping it to himself. he claims that he kept the board but says it got ran over by a car (i do not believe this). is there anyway that i can sue him? my dad is a lawyer but i dont want to tell him about the incident if theres nothing he can do because i wasnt supposed to be out of the house. (i gave him my skateboard at a nearby school)

i want to know if i can sue him if he:

1.didnt follow my requests of giving my skateboard to somebody else

2.got it ran over by a car

3.kept my it
