THE PERSON WHO HIT ME IS UNIT1. the driver female blew a stop sign as i proceeded to cross a small street as she was trying to turn right on to a big street. She saw me trying to cross and hit me anyways and blew the stop sign. she had the nerve to ask me why didnt i stop when i have the right of way and when she didnt even stop for the stop sign. ANYWAYS WHAT DOES UNIT 2 MEAN. THE POLICE TOTALLY TOOK HER SIDE AND THEY HAVE ME AS UNIT2? SHE MIGHT EVEN HAVE BEEN INTOXICATED OR HIGH AND THEY DIDNT EVEN TEST HER FOR IT. I WAS TOO BUSY BEING STRAPPED INTO AN AMBULANCE. MY WHOLE BODY HUSRTS AND IM ON CRUTCHES AND NECK BRACE.

If you hate him , put down a couple of reasons why you hate him. If you like him, put down a couple of reasons why you like him.

I don't know anything about him , and I'm trying to see what exactly he did that people love/hate him for.

Okay, I have my views on this issue but I want to here others views on this issue. Republicans oppose it because it would be government run and would require the rasing of taxes. Any other thoughts?

The most important part of this election is to get George Bush out of the White House. As long as the next president is better than Bush I'll be fine with who ever it is.

Who will you be voting for? Give your reasons, based off their views and policies and more. This is not time to attack another party, just give your straight answer.

The anniversary of his death was this past week. Fidel Castro and other communist/socialist revolutionaries hail him as a hero. Many young people wear his T-shirts. Yet Che was Castro's chief prosecutor right after Castro took power. Che ordered summary executions of hundreds of people, with no trial or due process. Che also hobnobbed with butchers like Chairman Mao. In the end, Che wimpered like a little girl when facing his capture and death.

And security and respect will not come with any female or Mexican as president in the USA. Heaven help us, if what I am hearing is real. We have a bunch of idiots in the media, I am so sick of the reportings. My screen is off for another 10 years, can't take it any longer.

Go get 'em OBAMA, EDWARDS OR BIDEN, our only hopes.

It has to do with child support payments. Child support has stopped due to the child being adopted, but now i am being ordered to pay back child support payments each month starting next month.

But, what does this part mean:

"Respondent is in contempt of court. The court will withhold sentencing on the contempt of court for a period of twelve months in order to give Respondent an opportunity to purge this contempt by making all payments as set forth herein. Should Respondent fail to purge his contempt of this court and fail to comply with any terms of this order, the court shall, wihtout requiring future notice, issue a warrant for the Respondent's arrest upon filling of an appropriate affidavit of non-compliance on behalf of Petitioner. Respondant shall thereafter be incarcerated in Jail until the court addresses Petitioner's comptemp charge and any other contempt charges that may then be pending."

In simple terms, what exactly does this mean?

Thanks for your time

I don't understand why people say things like "I'm sorry" at sentencing hearings in order to get leniency. If those people were truly "sorry," wouldn't part of being sorry mean they'd want to be punished for their crimes? I mean, if someone is indeed guilty AND sorry, wouldn't that person DEMAND to be jailed for a long time, as a symbol of remorse?

I bring this up because I was actually on a jury once where we found a guy guilty of attempted murder. He begged for mercy during the sentencing phase by claiming he was "sorry." Some jurors were feeling sorry for him until I explained this line of logic to them. "Let's help him express his sorrow," I said.

It worked; he won't be paroled for at least 55 years. But I mean, realistically, he wasn't "sorry" about the crime. He was "sorry" he got caught, but that's it.

Why do some idiot jurors actually fall for sob stories and apologies?

Why is it that mostly liberals tell how hypocritical the Republican party is but ignore their own party. I'm not saying the Republican party is perfect, but it seems that they just ignore the failings of their own party and attack the other. Any thoughts?

Purpose being making laws and protecting the Constitution. Going beyond would be spying on it's citizens without a warrant or just cause for doing that spying.

No, I don't have anything to hide, but that is not justification for people searching for a reason to spy on it's citizens. Last time I looked the United States of America wasn't spelled "China"...just because our businesses were sent there doesn't mean that our rights go right along with them!

Don't get me wrong.. hes not the best and he has made mistakes but...

Why have causualties in Iraq been cut by 50% due to the surge? And dont give me "war is bad, 0 is better" crap, it may be bad but its inevitable. Did you expect us to have no casualties when went to war?

Who could have predicted some crazy people would fly a freaking plane into a tower? By the way it was Clinton who cut many programs in order to get rid of a huge debt.
