The majority of prisoners in this nation have not committed any violence toward another person or committed any theft or property crime.

Does it help you sleep at night, make you feel safer?

No joke, why do we continue to reward these inmates. They have the "right" or "choice" not to commit crimes. But we have no"choice" or "rights" in how we deal with them once they have forced themselves upon us as an unwanted responibility. Curentlly we are forced and expected to shelter, feed, provide medical care, and the biggest joke of all...rehabilitate these decision makers. This is truelly a massive injustice to the people who foot this bill. Basically we have set up a reward(no work....but plenty of food, shelter, ect) for not playing by the rules.Yes, prison is a reward.I beileve they should terminate all prisoners, and close the prisons. "Death, with no chance of incaceration" for all crimes sounds like it's just what these decision makers need to finally and fully understand that we are done spending our money on their reward program. I don't know what it cost to build and opperate a prison, but dumping these leaches in a self dug grave must be more cost effective.

Alright. Last night my dad got rear ended by some idiot...in our own driveway none the less. When the police came (it was a woman) she did pretty much nothing to help the situation. Anyone could obviously tell this guy was either drunk or high or something and she didnt even give him a breathalizer! There was empty beer cans on the floor (open container policy--ticket right??). There were no skid marks, meaning he didnt even apply his brakes?? My dad's car is very banged up and he got whiplash. The car is an older car and it would take a lot to bang it up that bad. The guy claims he was going 30 mph and was going to pass but this road is a no passing zone and he also said my dad didnt turn on his signal light which he always does. He was deff. going more than 30 mph. One more problem..there were no witnesses...just the two of them. And to end this story, the police officer didnt even issue a ticket...something to me seems seriously messed up. Can anyone help me?

The problem with the current liberal movement in the U.S. is that in it's attempt to aid the poor and the under represented portions of society, this liberal movement winds up working to undermine individual responsibility, individual rights, and equal opportunity for all, the fundamental philosophy of western liberalism. When specific groups are given higher priority above others, equality for all gets thrown out the window and abandoned. The rights of minorities and those identified as oppressed should not be placed above the rights of others, specifically individuals who seek to take responsibility for their own actions and to assert their own individual rights. The new cult of victimization needs to be reconsidered, and the unfairness of this concept needs to be made clear to all. By ending this rift in western liberalism, the liberal movement could be reinvigorated, and western liberals could begin to defend themselves again.

I am about to get a divorce with my husband, but he refuses to leave the apartment. He is illegal and i started the process with immigration to get his papers, but I cancelled it. I think he just wants to stay because he has nowhere else to go. One of the reasons i am seeking a divorce is because of his violent behavior and sometimes physical outbursts, which i have pictures to prove. I guess i can go to the police and get a restraining order but that would definitely leave him no chance of getting his papers at all in the future. I'm not sure i want that as that would totally destroy his future and who knows what he will do if i do that to him. I just want him out with no drama. What are my other options? I live in new york...i have the lease in my name only...can i get mangement of the apartment to kick him out? I wish i knew more about the laws so i can know what to do in a situation like this...please help!!

My boyfriend and I even have a little bet on. He's a politics major and says she's in but even though he knows a lot about it and has masses of arguments for the case, I just don't see her winning. We're not American and I don't follow the race so I'm not that well informed, I'm just wondering, will she win it or not and what could be her downfall?

California Governor Gray Davis destroyed a law made by voters. The law would have taken away benefits from undocumented workers. The pro-amnesty Democrat governor spitted on Democracy by overriding the votes of citizens.

First, the ACLU sued to have the law struck down. The liberal 9th "Circus" Court (whose rulings have been overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court dozens of time) sided with the ACLU.

Then the Democrat killed the law by refusing to do his fiduciary duty to appeal Prop. 187 to the non-biased U.S. Supreme Court. Instead of appealing the law, the liberal sent the law into "arbitration". Arbitration is unheard of in a democracy. In arbitration, a group of hand chosen people were used to decide against the law.
That is about about as anti-American as it comes. Millions of California Democrats and Republicans went to the polls and voted for the law.

Davis was later kicked out of office and replaced by Arnold Swarzenegger.
