used by a defendent as evidence of innocense in a criminal proceeding? A man In Northwest Arkansas was charged and convicted for violating federal firearms charges. He was not allowed to present the second ammendment to the constitution as a defence. Is this possibly a point of a future appeal? Or is his fate sealed?

Hi, i live in Canada and I was intriqued by a conversation on a sports radio asking the question of boycotting the china for their horrible human rights record. But i know we from the west are hypocrites in some way in regards to human rights complaints in our own countries but you can't compare anything in the U.S. or canada for that matter to that which is happening in china and their dealings in Darfur. I know simply boycotting them would do no good i think we need to stop trade as well because that gives them money. China has used the excuse that they wanted to trade with the west and they inturn would work on their human rights record and that has never happened. Sure there will be a hit to the economy but i think it's time we take a stand and let our principles guide us for once.

Do you respect them ?

Do You hate them ? And if you claim to not hate them , then please explain the left's hatred for ---

President Bush
Rush Limbaugh
Sean Hannity
Michael Savage ( a guy I sometimes agree with and other times vehemently disagree with , but hatred is always wrong)
Bill O'Reilly

Something for you liberals to also think about is that none of the aforementioned people ever tried legislating liberal talk shows off the airwaves or even attempted to force liberal talk shows to give equal time to conservatives . That would be 'shoving ideology down people's throats' now wouldn't it ? Think about that one for awhile .

I understand if you disagree with these folks, but remember , they disagree with you , and I will never understand your hatred for them .

...behind Canada in average life-expectancy? The USA is also 42nd (in life expectancy) world-wide, behind Japan, most of Europe, Jordan, Guam and the Cayman Islands, ...amongst others... and appears to be falling even further behind with the passage of time.

What does that say about the American health care system?

heres my question if anyone knows i thank you all in advance... im trying to join the navy now and going through the long recruiting process... my question is what is it that the navy needs to know when they told me they want to know why my charge was dismissed... my charge got dismissed because of lack of evidence and falsified information from the lying girl... the navy wants more information based on this and i gave them what i possibly could get from the prosecutor and the court system... if anyone knows the answer to this please tell me and let me know

I am divorced and I know my ex will not consent to me moving our child out of state. We live in Missouri, and I want to move to Georgia with my boyfriend. I want to move to primarily get away from all the worries I have here with my ex-husband constantly trying to control our lives, even though we have been divorced 2 years now. In our divorce papers, in the parenting plan, it says I have to have written consent from him to move our daughter out of state. Well, he will not consent, so do I have to go to court and if so what do I need to prepare myself for? Is there any chance the judge would say I can't move with her? He does have a long history of DWIs and drug position, would any of this past be helpful to me moving from him? If we have to go to court, what should I expect to have to change as far as visitation rights and child support, etc? Thanks to anyone who has any answers to help me!

into a black poor neighborhood and decide I want to shoot someone, I don't have to fear that anyone who saw me would report me to the police? This amounts to animal-like barbaric behavior, can this be true?

I am French, and I am very interested by politics. I think and hope Hillary will be your next president.
Do you think also she will be? Do you like her?
Lots of people told me that you won,t vote for her because you don,t want to have a woman as your leader. I think you are not this way. But do you think a woman could lead USA?

I just want to serve. This is just something I want to do in my life. I was discharged during Basic. My re-entry code is 3. I think my chances would be best in the Army, or should I try the Marine Corps? I doubt the technical branches are hurting for men enough to give me a shot.

The 35% is used to pay the interest for the money loaned by the corrupt and unconstitutional Federal Reserve Bank. The international bankers who own the Federal Reserve pocket the 35% of the money you earn, unconstitutionally. And there is literally no law in existence that requires us to pay this tax.
