1) Approach dumb rich ignorant student talking about "peace" and saying there should be, "no retaliation."
2) Engage in brief conversation, ask if military force is appropriate. 3) When he says "No," ask, "Why not?"
4) Wait until he says something to the effect of, "Because that would just cause more innocent deaths, which would be awful and we should not cause more violence."
5) When he's in mid sentence, punch him in the face as hard as you can. 6) When he gets back up to punch you, point out that it would be a mistake and contrary to his values to strike you, because that would, "be awful and he should not cause more violence."
7) Wait until he agrees that he has pledged not to commit additional violence.
8) Punch him in the face again, harder this time.

Repeat steps 5 through 8 until they understand that sometimes it is necessary to punch back.

I noticed that not long ago Republicans accused all Democrats who were critical of the war in Iraq of being unpatriotic and bashing the troops-

Today, many Republicans have come out against the war- are they being unpatriotic and bashing the troops, or is it okay when it's the Republicans are doing the complaining?

And I'm an Independent btw, I see both parties as being equally flawed- i just find the double standards , particularly coming from the right wing, to be quite amusing...

What a mess with these babies that are born in the US to illegal aliens. What can be done to stop this awful problem. I see these kids on tv whose are parents are being deported (which I agree with for anyone illegal) but then wonder what will happen to these(legal citizen) kids. I would like to see the law changed to not automatically grant citizenship unless one of the parents is a citizen. Since that does not look like it will happen, what should/can be done? We certainly don't want to encourage more of this behavior but can't just kick out the legal child. Looks like splitting them up is the only option; it makes me mad that these parents don't think of this before they put the children in the position of possibly growing up without their parents. Very selfish!

Why can't people understand the word "illegal"? It means: unlawful, against the law.

I keep hearing people say this, but no one has given a specific example. It's easy to see that Fox News leans to the right, but what are the reasons some people think the major networks are liberal?

Ok, I live in Alabama and got a DUI a month or so ago. I only had one beer and it was in the car with me. I refused the breath test because I was told that I could get a DUI with one beer and that it was best to not blow and go to court because I have a fighting chance. Is this true? Also if I cannot afford a lawyer will they give me one? If I end up guilty with pleading not guilty make it worse on me? Thanks ahead of time!

Have you thought about when contacting your senator and congress to let them know what is being said and show them what the pro and illegals are saying on here?? ...how they can get away with breaking our laws and how it makes our politicians look like Big Dummies?? It is actually a slap in Americas face what they say on here... I did today!! I faxed it to them!....my senator that is against illegal immigration thanked me very much ...Maybe just maybe they will see that the illegals are not here as they claim for a better life ...but they know they can live for free and break our laws...Seems to me if we dont let them know if they care or not that if they can break the laws so will Americans by getting them out of our country !

I'm willing to pay a fine. I'm even willing to leave and come back. I can do one of the jobs that the White House is unwilling to do. If I'm already in the White house should I just stop in at the security desk and get a pass? It's really not practical to go from door to door looking for me when I just want to work.

I think that if you don't support the war, then you can't say you support the troops. If you do, you're trying to find a compromise that doesn't exist. I don't support the war and therefore I don't support the troops. But, I don't want them to get hurt, that's actually one of the reason's I don't support the war in the first place. It's complicated.

But what do you think?

I am asking this question in the "politics" section because I know you are all intellectals who appreciate debating an interesting subject....

Plenty of times (regardless of the subject matter), I've noticed how people can be downright mean/rude to askers here on Y! Answers. It's disheartening to know that people have so much pent up rage and feel the need to unleash it upon innocent people who are just sending a question out into the void. Don't get me wrong...there are some real weirdo freaks who post some nasty, disturbing questions and deserve a little backlash, but for those who are asking ligitimate questions...why are they getting tormented?

The question is...does anonymity encourage people to be "themselves," or does it bring out the worst. I'd like to know if this is REALLY how people are...or if the veil of the computer screen gives them the chance to unleash their pent up rage.

Your thoughts?

Does Bush even care that Iran is on the verge of building nuclear weapons & that they plan to use those weapons on Israel?

And if he does care about Israel why is he allowing Iran to stockpile enriched uranium (right now) which is main ingredient in nuclear weapons?

And why is he allowing Russia to sell Iran the medium range missiles that they will use to launch the their nuclear weapons
at Israel & wipe it off the map?

Is Bush just to busy trying to fix his monumental disaster in Iraq to be worried about the people of Israel?

I just read about the Sheriff in Florida that has some unusual techniques for catching illegals on construction sites. I have no problem sharing citizenship with people of any nationality, but I truly resent illegals coming here, taking jobs from Americans, and allowing business owners to pocket outrageous profits because they do not pay full wages, insurance, social security, or workers comp on illegals. I am outraged by organizations like the ACLU and organizations working to help illegals here in the USA to try and get around laws already on the books with the justification of "they are doing jobs Americans won't do". Round these illegals up, fingerprint or chip them, and send them back the first time with a warning that if they come back, they will be put in a work camp like Joe Arpaio has for criminals in Phoenix. Let them go through the ligitmate process of immigration and keep Americans working. We might pay a little more for fruit and vegetables but mostly it cuts profits!
