I think they probably originated after the second world war, but is their presence in the U.K. open-ended?

Because if it is, this "Judge Young" needs to be dealt with. A legal immigrant with two children (American citizens) was told to go back to where she came from after appearing in court for an order of protection from her estranged husband.

Will there ever come a day when I can read the paper and find that no old buddy of the Bush Baby has abused his position by using it to fill his own pockets or the coffers of the GOP. The real origin of "Show me the money" was not the film, it was the daily workings of the White House.

Are you a liberal who is pro-life? Are you a conservative who wants gun control?

I "typically" fall under liberal, but don't agree with all of the typical points of view. I was just curious if there are other liberals like myself, or if any conservatives run into similar issues.

I've learned that some states are passing (or have passed) laws requiring the noncustodial parent to continue paying child support until the child is 22 if they're in college. I don't believe this is right because that is discriminating against people who are divorced. My parents were married when I was 18 but since they disapproved of me dating a man from another religion, the disowned me, cutting me off financially. So I worked through college and it took me a bit longer, but I paid my own tuition, room and board. If married parents are NOT required to pay their child's college tuition, why should divorced parents be??

For over several years that people used file sharing for illegal downloading. Since the software give a negative aspect of it's use and cause law conflicts with the clients. I am still being questioned that why does people still do illegal things although they cannot get everything they want unless they work hard for it. Shouldn't file sharing be illegal? (Excuse my english, sorry)

DNA scientist and Nobel Prize winner James Watson recently stated that blacks are inherently less intelligent than whites.

Leaving emotion and name-calling out of it, couldn't it be possible? There are obvious physical differences, couldn't there be mental differences also?

I was wondering if anyone thinks the 18th and 21st amendment should be removed from the Constitution?

Can they be removed?

Do they represent a lesson to us about banning personal choices?

Answers pointing towards a Constitutional Amendment are referred! Thanks!

The teacher decided not to accept my essay because a few parts in the story weren't true. She told me I had to redo it. For the origional paper we had 2 weeks to write it. For my rewrite, I had four days to write it.

I neglected to redo this assignment -- and the day I had to turn it in, I asked a buddy of mine if I could borrow his paper with my name on it [not knowing that it was considered plaguerism at the time] and turned it in.

The teacher asked my buddy about his paper and he told her that I borrowed his paper. Then, she came to me and I said "yeah, I borrowed his paper because I didn't get my redo done."

My question goes as follows

-- Did she have the right to not accept my paper in the first place? Even if on her grading rubric it says nowhere that it has to be a 100% true story?

-- And, should I fight the case that I didn't know I plaguerized? And that if she had accepted the paper in the first place, it wouldn't have been an issue?

So in my history class my professor informed us that we had to pick a partner and a topic and debate over it. So I chose gun-control and chose to be against guns (and no I'm not a hippie, I just chose something) so anyways, the professor was trying to give me advice of debating and that I had to anticipate what my opponent is going to say. And I know exactly what he's going to say, he's going to say "guns don't kill people people kill people" and say it's in our amendments to own a gun and etc. so I was just thinking how in the world can I have a good counter Punch verses that stupid quote? And how should I go about doing the debate? For example should I just throw a bunch of stats of how many kids get in to their father's guns and shoot themselves by accident or appeal to their sense of decency by showing them visual pictures of parents crying over their children that were killed by guns and I was thinking of researching different types of ammunition because there are types of bullets that once inside of you shatter and caused a great deal of damage. And I guess I could say defending yourself is one thing but there is no need for the advanced types of ammunition anyone could buy at their local gun store and so on. Any suggestions would be great, thanks.

I recieved an court order to pay a money judgement or move out by a certain date. The court order stated that the landlord has right to possession. I am trying to understand what the judge is really saying. Once I pay the amount stated on the court order will I still be evicted or will this stop the eviction because I paid the amount before the date stated to pay or move out of the premises...Real answers please!

Harry Reid tries to take credit for the Limbaugh Ebay letter, always saying "we" in his speech as if he was part of it.

Not to mention, ABC made it sound in a statement that the democrats were the ones responsible for the money donated to charity from the letter.

A judge working a double-homicide case tells the defendant, “You’re charged with beating your wife to death with a hammer.”

“You bastard!” yells a voice from the back of the courtroom.

“You’re also charged with killing your mother-in-law with a hammer,” says the judge.

“Bastard!” the same person yells.

The judge addresses the man sitting in the back of the courtroom.“Sir, one more outburst and I’ll charge you with contempt.”

“I’m sorry, Your Honor,” says the man. “But I’ve been this bastard’s neighbor for 10 years, and every time I asked to borrow a hammer, he said he didn’t have one.”
