Just out of the blue? Here, get out in 60 days, and I don't have to tell you why, or even have a reason?

My best friend met a guy who is in his mid 20's, he says he was in jail for ten years because of a crime he commited when he was 14-15 years old. He wouldn't tell her what he did though, she seems to be fine with it, but I think she should be scared (?). He's on parole for 3 years. What could he have done?? Please don't bother replying: that's your friend problem or stuff like that.

The last three Democratic Presidents were all southerners and all were solidly Left of Center. All were Religious without trading on it or pandering to the Fundies.

It's been my experience that folks aren't as Conservative as they think if you put things in terms that their cutlures make it easy for them to understand.

Do you think the Dems can overcome Political Correctness enough to give it a try?

Every "worker" I speak to says they are not worth the paper they are written on, however every company I work for, has a clause in the contract that states anywhere between 3-6 months prohibition of working for a competitive company.

Also, I've seen people jump ship to a competitor and the clause never enforced (that I'm aware of).

up.

I am not asking about whether you think abortion is right or wrong.

I am simply asking if what I heard is true.

Also because the answers of this question will be on both sides, could you tell me sources that back up your claim?

Thank you for your assistance.

Split the families, send to jail innocent worker people, denied education and a better future to KIDS with migrant parents, racism, discrimination, even murder people that just go there for try to grow up in life and have a better future for their families.

300 years ago a bunch of withe people came to "America" cause in their land were no opportunities and they weren't free, so they came, kill all the people living in "America" took their land and call it "destiny"... so now that other people want to go to "America" peacefully, those withe assholes build up walls and make unconstitutional laws against them... and this country call itself "a nation under god with liberty and justice for all"????????

I don't care how man times this question is going to be deleted, is better for me because you are proving that you DON'T keep the first commandment of your constitution: THE FREEDOM OF SPEECH !

PS: And yes CHINA ROCKS ! and U.S debt 3.5 TRILLION DOLLARS to CHINA !

Thank you for taking time and answering my question

I have seen this question on here a million times. People say that if we don't let illegals continue to work here doing "the jobs no american wants to do" the price of onions will go up to 40.00 a pound.

Cant we just send them home and subsidise the farmers with inmate labor. The inmates will pick the crops and the farmer would pay the state minimum wage for each inmate working for him and the inmates would get the 30 cents a day they usually would get for doing work in the prison and the remainder of the wage would go to the prison to defray cost of housing the inmates.

This would kill many birds with one stone. We would have no need for illegals, The inmates would not just be sitting in prision on the taxpayers dollar but they would be giving back to us. The farmer would get his low cost workers, Our prices would stay the same and we wouldnt have to spend as much tax money on prisoners.

Would you be for or against this and why?

Yes Ive asked this before. But I want to be sure because this is a path I would like to take. I know with the war there will be deployments, so ignoring this part of it.. US Army State side will I be able to pursue college at all? Does it depend on a sympathetic Chain of Command? Does it depend on type of MOS? Any thing need to be worked out INTO the contract? OR will Distance learning work good enough??

For example I am going to enlist as either 35M or 35P. worst case if I dont get my Clearence is 27D.

Considering they are Combat SUPPORT MOS, would this make it easier? harder?

OR should I just enlist for the minimum 3 years with the MOS I want, And then go Green to Gold when I can?(Id rather this be avoided, but if its the only way...)

I know that it's possible to have dual citizenship. My question now is, is it possible to be a citizen of more than 2 countries? If it is, how far does it go? I mean how many countries can you possibly be a citizen for?
