No one else in America is allowed to disregard a law that they don't feel like complying with without facing consequences.

I'd love to not be bothered with preparing my 1040 every year but the law compels me to do so.

Serial Killers have all started abusing animals. I think there is something pathologically wrong with a person who abuses an animal.

Do we really need to fine a person who abuses an animal who will then move onto people walking around society?

I am in favor of a long prison sentence.

If people are living in this country illegally they are breaking the law and thier has to be consequences for that.We can't pick and choose the laws we want to be upheld and just ignore the ones we don't like.Believing that these people should be punished does not mean that we hate them or dislike like them. It just means we expect them do things in a legal manner. Why do you people who believe they should get off scott free keep trying to put words in our mouth by saying that we hate them and calling us racist? Is living by the law too mature a concept for today's society? The only people who talk about hatred are the ones who accuse us of racism, so maybe we know who's hearts are REALLY filled with hatred.

I recently bought a used computer from a flea market vendor, The vendor said the computer had windows Xp, which it does...only problem is that i think its a pirated version because it will not pass the windows validation test. I paid for a computer that was said to have windows xp, since the computer apparently has an illegal or unverifiable version of XP, is there a legal way i can get my money back or make the vendor put a valid version of windows XP on my computer without me having to pay extra for it? I'm thinking that this kind of falls under false advertisement a bit....anyone know anything i can do?

speeding. I was just wondering if this is the proper protocol and procedure for a female officer to act in this situation when dealing with a male. Can this be considered sexual assault? Possibly this can be considered for a reason to have this charge dropped? Thank you very much

It is the truth! On May 9th Bush signed a directive that grants him almost dictatorial powers in case of a national emergency that would, of course, be declaired by him and him alone.
The national Security and Homeland Presidential Directive (NSPD-51) allows the president to assume responsibility for ALL Government functions in every area, State, local,national,.To handle this he created the new potion of the National Community Corrdinator without Congress authorizing the position.His actions superceeds the National Emergency Act! Does anyone else wonder why this man isn't being impeached? In addition to all of his illigal actions, he refuses to back down even when many of his own Republican Party are demanding the resignation of Attorney Alberto Gonzales! Can we put up with this megalomanic for another 18 months?

I'm trying to understand how ANYONE can defend this:

"The Office of Vice President Dick Cheney told an agency within the National Archives that for purposes of securing classified information, the Vice President's office is not an 'entity within the executive branch' according to a letter released Thursday by the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform."

http://rawstory.com/news/2007/Cheney_tells_agency_that_Vice_Presidents_0621.html

And this:
"Dick Cheney, who has wielded extraordinary executive power as he transformed the image of the vice presidency, is asserting that his office is not actually part of the executive branch and does not have to comply with an executive order on safeguarding classified information.

So in other words we have 4 branches of gov. : Executive, Legislative, Judicial, And Cheney. Funny how he doesn't think he has to comply - THIS document would indicate otherwise:

http://www.fas.org/sgp/bush/eoamend.html

What do you all think of this?

We went in there not because of UN resolutions, oil, WMDs, a humanitarian mission to "spread democracy" or to protect Israel. We went in to spread US influence in the mideast, and one of the things we were planning on happening was a weakening of Iran.
However, the war has had the opposite effect. Iran's influence is now spread throughout Iraq and into parts of Lebanon. Shouldn't it have been clear that this would happen? Shouldn't it have been clear that allowing Iran to reopen relations with the Iraqi Shi'ia community would bring tons of money into Iran, not to mention political power? Were the architects of the war so idealistic that they thought that Iraqis would assume western values overnight and start praying to Washington DC instead of Mecca just because we got rid of Saddam?
