Politics & Government - 30 April 2007

The five men sentenced to life today for plotting to bomb London, were not soldiers fighting a war, they were criminals. Patient and professional surveillance work done by the Police is what caught them.

Calling it "war" increases these murderers' sense of their own importance, it legitimises them and makes them heroes and martyrs. Sending our soldiers to Islamic countries to kill the inhabitants is a sure way to recruit more criminals.

I've been critical of the Police in the past, but this was a brilliant bit of work. The Police are the ones who will save us from terrorist crime, not the army.

Here's what I've heard about it. I've heard that in contrast to the Democrats standing as a bloc last Thursday, looking like a solid party for the first time in a long time, the Republicans will be mudslinging and arguing among themselves to beat the band. The pundits are expecting big fireworks. Any thoughts on this?

People are so crazy when at comes to emigrants , This nation has always been know to be racist and this is a good example of it . Just cause you don't have a piece of paper or a green card doesn't mean you are a criminal in fact at might mean you are a hard worker and like the freedom we all share.
Why do we let child molesters free on bond while we gather all of does that doesn't have papers to show there status and deport them without any lean of time.
We treat immigrants worse then criminals , you can molest a child or commit a murder and be on the streets free on bond but the illegal don't have that chance , they gather them like animals and lets not talk of how many of them have die for this great country. Shame on you .

Can the night club refuse the service /admittance to a person solely based on someone else`s accusations of that person? There is no drugs, alchogol or any other offensive behavior involved, but simply because Person A hates Person B and they happen to go to the same night club and the person A who hates Person B asked the owners of the night club to call the security next time the Person B shows up in the club? The accusations is that the Person A doesn`t feel comfortable in the person`s B presence ? Is it possible for a night club to refuse service/admittance to person B based on such accusations and what can the person B sue the person A for this?

We complain when terrorists use their children as their shields. These ilegal aliens and their supporters are no morally better than the terrorists in indoctrinating children for their illegal cause.
Why are law breaking parents giving us hogwash about having to separate from their children when they get deported? Maybe these school dropouts or too uneducated parents don't realize that it's more important for them and it is a parent's duty to bring their kids back with them to raise than leave them behind in the US. Many skilled foreigners and non-law breakers, legally here on H1 or short-term visas or tourist visas don't leave their children behind upon returning home.. Many have babies born here. Are the illegal aliens and their supporters too stupid too realize that those kids born in America don't completely lose their American citizenship. These kids can always opt to return to the US whenever they wish. It's their problem for want to leave their children behind, not the US!

Dave, The American President, Head of State, Man of the Year, and so on. All more or less liberal.

I know this all comes out of Hollywood and blah, blah, blah, but I'm wondering if any mainstream movie has used a conservative to be a hero.

Location was in Toronto
OPP
My husband was entering the on ramp to the 401 in Toronto on the weekend when an OPP officer jumped into his car and pulled him over to give him a seat belt ticket. Both him and his friend were not wearing their seat belts but did get them on before they were pulled over. When the officer wrote the ticket he did not take the ownership and fill the ticket out wrong. He stated the year of the vehical a 2008? He told my husband that if he had of omited he had not had his seat belt on he would not have given the ticket to him. Does anyone have any advice on this?

At least when Clinton was impeached we had an actual law he broke (lying under oath = perjury). Can anyone name the law that Bush et all broke?

"Heat from the flames exceeded 2,750 degrees, shot 200 feet into the air and caused the steel beams holding up the interchange from eastbound I-80 to eastbound Interstate 580 above to buckle. Bolts holding the structure together melted, leading to the collapse"

But, but, but, but....all the 9/11 conspiracy nut job wackos said that their made up physics says fire cannot burn that hot. Does this mean that it was actually terrorists that flew the planes into the WTC towers?

Amid all the uproar of George Tenet's efforts to vindicate himself of any errors in the run up to the Iraq war, his warning about terrorist nukes has gone largely unremarked upon.

The top 1% of the population earns 22% of wages, versus 15% five years ago. We had a record high in the Dow recently. Is the gap between the haves and have-nots increasing? Is that for the better or the worse for our country?

That brings the total killed much higher this month.
They use to do that for generations but no one knew about it.
Now we keep a count. Millions usually die in their wars like Iran and Iraq so I guess this isn't bad they can bred faster than that. How many are left anyway?
