Today I came home (was out of town last night) and saw about 5 police cars near my home. It's a suburban community and theres a small park in the middle of the homes, where the officers were. I started washing my car and noticed they were still there, people walking up to them and having conversations... I saw/heard one guy walk up out of nowhere to the officer (caucasian, and all the officers were) and he said something like "well sir we just had some vandalism last night..." So a few minutes later, I (mid-twenties, minority), walk up to them, except im not out of nowhere, they see me come from my garage towards them, meaning I definitely live there, and I ask "hey officers whats going on?" and one of them says "oh we're just patrolling here... so, where were you last night? u hear anything?" i said no and i was out of town, but i was just worried now, and he said "we've got it under control, thanks". I thought that was rude and unprofessional/prejudice, am I wrong?!

my father died two years ago and my step mom said there was no will. I wouldn't doubt that so I went along with whatever she wanted since she was my fathers wife and deserved the respect. Well then a year later she dies and again no will. She had no kids, just my dads daughters. Her sister came to my dads house and along with my fathers sister they sold EVERYTHING and did not even let my sister and I know anything was up for sale. Is this legal?

SAN ANTONIO, Texas -- Southern Baptists approved a resolution on global warming that questions the prevailing scientific belief that humans are largely to blame for the phenomenon and also warns that increased regulation of greenhouse gases will hurt the poor.

The global warming debate has split evangelical Christians, with some not only pressing the issue but arguing humans bear most of the responsibility for the problem because of greenhouse gas emissions. Other evangelicals say talking about the issue at all diminishes their influence over more traditional culture war issues such as abortion, gay marriage and judicial appointments.

Compared to pot, alcohol is really far more powerful on the human mind and body. I have experimented with both for sometime, and I have always has good times while stoned rather than drunk. I have seen a lot of people die from alcohol poisening; but never have I heard of a Marijuana poisening, or "overdosing." I also rarely hear about (and by rarely I mean twice in my life) about a "stoned driver killing a person while driving under the influence," and they were likely just unfortunate accidents that would have likely occured with pot involved or not.

Nonetheless, alcohol is far more addicting and dangerous and I believe that America has the wrong substance extremely available to the public legally. For those about to question the movie "REFER MADNESS," I assure you people do not behave like that on Marijuana, and I do believe that alcoholics are the ones causing fights, accidents, divorces, and are those more likely to rape someone. And one cannot over dose on weed....

Nanotechnology, CERN's LHC, and HAARP
How about the fact that our Gov uses technology in a way that makes it so our enemys can not sleep during battle? I dont understand how a person can feel right about denying the enemy sleep inorder to win a battle. If thats how we treat our enemys why sould we expect them to treat us better?
