Paris Hilton left jail early today after spending barely more than three days in a solitary cell, an early release that raised questions about whether the wealthy get special treatment from a star-struck judicial system.

How do you feel about it?

percentage wise US troops kill more of their own, blue on blue, than any other country. they rely on numbers instead of skill. the record of battles to wins is quite low compared to the best countries. it seems a case of if you throw enough ****.......well.........

I sold a puppy via internet. No contracts. She sent me a non refundable deposit of $160.00 and then a week later paid the balance to have the pup shiped. I took the money and bought the health cert,crate,shots and made the airline appointment and paid people to take the puppy up there. We agree'd to have the pup shiped to this one certon airport but by the time we got the balance needed to ship the temps exceeded the shiping limit. So we found a airlines that had air conditioned cargo but we have to go out of state to ship there (hence hired people to ship him) and i gave her the conformation # and told her where and when and because its a hour more drive she is refusing to take the puppy now and sue me cause i wont refund the whole 730.00 i have EXPENSES paid out of my own pocket to have him shiped and i explained this to her. to ship at this other airport its costing more. I offered her twice all of her shiping money back, or i will ship the puppy. She is refusing both. What can i do

My dad bought a dodge viper that had just passed an inspection by dodge, he crashed 3 days later at 30mph ;the car just lost control because of the poor weight positiong of the engin ( a design failure). He didn't suffer any great damage besides a totaled car and a month's worth of headaches. Is it possible for him to start a class action suing of DaimlerChrysler for product deficiency since this is one of the many times it has happened to viper owners?
If so, are there any lawyers interested in helping him do so?
Thank you

On D-Day, we lost around 3000 soldiers with another 10,000 wounded in one day. According to world-war-2.info, the United States had 291,557 soldiers killed and 670,846 soldiers wounded during World War ll. Would we have the will to see a war like this thru with this many dead and wounded now?

The political parties today just take opposite sides from eachother and don't really care about what they should support. They just care about political gain and getting re-elected. This causes Americans to have to decide to support one party or something totally opposite.

I think it would be good to force parties with more than 25% control of congress to split up. This would make it so parties will disagree on some issues and agree on some issues. Then when we are electing the president we would only allow the election of the two most populous parties in each house.

I guess that little outreach program we have with Iran is not working "ABC News is reporting that Iran has been caught 'red-handed' shipping weapons into Afghanistan. NATO officials say that they caught Iran red-handed shipping heavy arms, C4 explosives, and advanced roadside bombs to the Taliban for use against NATO forces in what the officials say is a dramatic escalation of Iran's proxy war against it United States and Great Britain. 'It is inconceivable that it is anyone other than the Iranian government that's doing this,' said former White House counterterrorism official Richard Clarke, an ABC News consultant." Well, if Richard Clarke said it, then it's got to be true! "Secretary of Defense Robert Gates stopped short earlier this week of blaming Iran..." Of course he did, because we're trying to make buds with them. We're trying to make nice with them. He says the US "didn't have evidence of the involvement of the Iranian government in support of the Taliban, but an analysis by a senior coalition official concludes that there is clear evidence of Iran's involvement."

So those feel-good overtures -- hmm, must not have worked. This is an act of war, and they're doing the same thing in Iraq and telling us what they're going to do. Once again earlier this week Ahmadinejad came out and said the time is running out on Israel, that the "clock is ticking," that their days are numbered. And everybody who hears him say this just says, "Ah, he's just some little crackpot over there. Don't worry about it, sure. Okay. Fine.

I got a DUI last week. It is my first and only offense, I've never even got a ticket for any traffic violation before. I know I've made a mistake and very sorry about it. What should I expect at my court hearing? Is there anything that can help me? I am ready to plead guilty and bear the consequences for I did wrong. But is there anything that can soften the sentence? I have been in an abusive relationship, going through a bitter divorce and have a lot of financial problems stemming from my marriage. I know it is not an excuse and most likely would not make any difference in judge's ruling but should I bring it up? Would the note from my mental health professional or any evidence from my friends help? I have no close family and no money for an attorney so I would highly appreciate any piece of advice you can give me.

Please, do not be judgmental, I know I did wrong.

Thank you.

When I was lad, roads were for vehicles and pavements for pedestrians because if you mix the two, pedestrians got hurt. So they use to teach you at school how to cross a road, and even pointed out to use a pedestrian crossing. Nowadays, vehicles are penilised because some one tries to run across and gets hurt. Am I getting cynical?

If I enter another person's email account without his permission although he give me the password and I deleted some emails related to myself. And we were friends at that time, it was 3 months ago. But now we kind of had some fighting, and he used this to threat me. He said I intruded his privacy. I want to know the statute of limitation on this kind of cases, how long does he have the right to sue me or can potentially harm me? by the way, his email account is his university's email account,he is a student of that university. Although he gave me the password, but I still think I will get trouble if he really sue me. what kind of law applies to this in Canada and how long the law applies from the time the incident happened? Is there any law people from canada? Any of your help and response will be highly appreciated!

I heard cindy sheehan is holding out on selling her story for millions. She reportedly was offered an amount of money for her "Grief and anti war movement" struggle , she originally said she can't sell her thoughts but will disclose them when the time is right. Now she is saying that an offer over 5 million dollars will get her story. Casey would be proud his mother is profiting from his death.
