From previous research, some citizens felt if they were prohibited from committing this act, it would be a violation of their "rights." Others, however, believed burning the U.S. flag is a demonstration of non-patriotism.

Based on your knowledge, how do you feel about this and more importantly, why?

Sadistic coward(s)!!

This racist & egregious incident happened at The Teacher's College in New York City.

Unfortunately, the authorities have not arrested the offender(s).

If & when he/she is arrested, what type of punishment will this person/persons receive?

Is this incident a hate crime?

If there's anyone out there in computerland who is well-versed in criminal law, please answer this question!

Thank You Kindly.

What is this paragraph saying clearly?

The EU has been more equivocal, demanding greater respect for human rights and a transition to civilian democracy, but appearing to accept fresh elections as the way to get there. Its sanctions have been correspondingly milder

I'm asking a sincere question. You don't need to explain your position. I'd prefer just a yes or no answer.

or... because we don't torture them as harshly as they torture us "it's ok"?

this is the refrain that conservatives keep repeating...

why do conservatives keep talking about "moral relativity" in the liberal party and as soon as terrorists attack they sink to the enemy's level because "they're doing it too"?

these are the same kinds of things Reagan chastised the Soviets for... secret prisons... torture... and now you just don't care if it's right or wrong anymore because you're afraid and feel threatened?

would you do away with all your freedoms to be safe? yet you say we're fighting for our freedoms?

there is inherent risk with freedom... conservatives seem less and less willing to live with that risk... the more you cut the risks the more you infringe on the freedoms our forefathers died for...

China doesn't have many terrorist attacks... but I don't like the price they pay for it...

Documentation exist that students could be in violation of separation of church and state interpretation of the constitution even though an extreme emergency exist. Should this be overlooked and could greater problems result from this action?

The countries name is China. Not the Peoples Republic of Communist China.
Does this show the ignorance of the right in America?
Maybe it would better for the world to add a countries political agenda before the name.
If so America would always be referred to as Imperialist America.

If they did that would be bad for the US because there is only enough room in the world for one aggressive superpower.

I mean since all politicans are professional liars what's the point of putting them on stage, on national TV, to more clearly tell them to the American people?

The US would never kill anyone because the US is so good. It's just a coincidence that the Iraqis are dying at a great rate while the Americans are helping them. It's just a coincidence that the "insurgents" are killing Iraqis while the "most powerful nation on earth" is RIGHT THERE. Americans can never be bad.

Do they not know that ALL toyotas and hondas sold in the USA are made in the USA unlike some of the "American" cars. Cars like the Yukon that are made in Mexico and Canada.

A friend of mine recently made the claim that at the outset of the Iraq war hundreds of US attack helicopters deliberately set about performing a massacre of Iraqi civilians in a concerted city-wide campaign in Baghdad.
Now, I told him that this was ridiculous and at the start aerial bombardment and artillery strikes were performed against military installations. Is this not true?
Also, I haven't heard one peep about that alleged incident, and if it did happen, do you imagine that we'd ever hear the end of it?
yes, there was tragic deaths of innocent civilians but every effort was made to minimize these.
But he claims a deliberate slaughter by hundreds of US helicopters against innocents?!

Please just reassure me that I'm not a madman and that my friend has been grossly misinformed.

I pressed him for proof because he said this was shown on CNN and in the newspapers, but he baulked and starting pressing me to prove that it DIDN'T happen!?

How does one argue with this guy?

In our left-wing city of Windsor, Ontario, parking meters can be found on many streets, in addition to governmental parking lots. While the average joe parking his car in the lot must place a few quarters in the machine, all of the handicapped spaces have no meters to be found; that is, giving them free parking. Any opinions on this? 10 pts., as always!

A lot of the answers I read about Ron Paul, it seems that everyone has the same criticism of him : "OOh he is crazy, he is a nut, he wants to get rid of the IRS, bla bla bla" its all the same... so my question is to you who do not like Ron Paul: Have you actually done any research on the issues he believes in? Have you watched him on the debates, have you seen any of his speeches, have you looked through his website? Or are you simply mimicking what people in the media are saying about him?? Seeing one clip of him on a news program that misconstrues what he believes in, saying "oh he wants to get rid of the Federal Reserve, how will we pay for anything?" Have you researched where the Federal Reserve system came from? That is it run by private banks? Or are you listening to the news, hear something bad about him, not even critically think what it means behind what they are saying, and then come on yahoo answers and criticizes him??
