molestation. Okay, my little sister(16) was touched, while she said No. He forced his hands down her pants, and she said No, and he continued and kept pushing him away. Basically, she ended up going to the cops with my parents. They took both of their statements, the detective had told her they don't have a case, becuase she had kissed him on the cheek when she left(she only did it because he gave her this kinda threatening look, like, act normal and don't say anything). Now. to the actual question. I had confronted him via IM. smart me saved the IM. Where he admits, but not in the direct words that he had done it. Basically, I want to know since my sister said she doesnt want to pursue because they had told her "the court would not see your way", if my IM could help? Also, me being the over protective sister, i threatened him, like i'd break his hands if he ever came near her. If i got her to show the conversation. can I also get into trouble for the threat?

She has a strong lead over all the democratic candidates and given all the scandals the GOP frontrunner Rudy Giuliani comes with, he could never beat her. He already has firefighters protesting him and the religious right threatening to back a third party candidate.

Before you read I just want to say that I am not attacking anyone or any group.

In my U.S. Hisotry class, the teacher talks alot about these two parties. He is a Da*n proud Conservative, I am Sixteen and I like politics and for some reason, I see myself as a Conservative.
I undestand that a Liberals wants to put money into poor peoples laps (Welfare right?) While I understand that some people do need it, a lot of them just take advantage of it in a negative way. Shouldn't we check up on the people that are recieving this tax money that WE earn? Shoudn't this tax money be put into training and educating the poor, so they could live on their own.

Have liberals never heard of this?

India is fast developing economy . Already it equals to European Union's combined economy, and ever growing.

India is a nuclear power and is having nuclear weapons with it and is capable of further development in this sector.

Hence the question.

Way back in college, I came upon reading the Constitution. In running for Presidency,Senator and other political position the qualifications stated at least 35 years of age, can read and write....it's just similar to applying for an ordinary job! Can it be revised? Can't it have more higher qualifications like someone whose got a good leadership skill, a master's degree and with all the intelligence? etc? Most politicians never even had or finished college, for pete's sake! something fit for a good politician. It's a waste if we keep having elections only to find out in the long run that we elected the wrong candidate then we go for another Edsa. Look what our county's experiencing now.

Center for Immigration Studies, 1815 H Street, N.W. Stuite 1010, 20006-3604 Washington, D.C., USA
Abstract Free trade may well increase immigration from Mexico to the United States before ultimately slowing it down. Rapid population growth, unemployment or underemployment of half the labor force, and vast ethnic and kinship links to the United States have given Mexican migration a stubborn momentum. Increased prosperity from free trade will give many would-be migrants the means to resettle in the U. S. Foreign competition will displace Mexican workers in small farms, state-owned enterprises, and less competitive industries, forcing some to migrate. The noneconomic incentives and expectations driving migration will also remain strong. Mexicans may see free trade as making the border a mere formality or as conferring an entitlement to live in the United States. On the U. S. side, free trade may well deepen the government's traditional complacency about border controls. Over the long-term, however, a successful free trade agreement could reduce immigration by improving Mexico's democracy and the quality of life, diminishing the prospects of mass asylum movements from Mexico, creating a better climate for effective family planning, and luring marginal, immigration-magnet industries from the U. S. to Mexico. In the United States, less- skilled American workers in some industries and regions can expect job displacement and other disruptions from free trade. Particularly vulnerable will be workers in perishable crop agriculture, border retail trade, construction, apparel, and light manufacturing such as furniture, auto parts and glass. Continued heavy immigration of Mexican and other foreign workers into those industries and communities will further impede the adjustment of resident workers by competing for jobs and consuming public resources needed for retraining and job search. To ease the adjustment of displaced workers, the U. S. must make Mexico's cooperation in restraining immigration a condition for free trade. Mexico's cooperation should include enforcement of its own laws against clandestine border crossing; action against alien smugglers, document forgers and transiting illegal aliens from Central America; and curbs on the reentry of aliens deported from the United States. U.S. initiatives that would cushion vulnerable American workers against the added disruption of immigration would be: better identification and screening of applicants for public assistance; tightened enforcement of safety and labor standards in immigrant-impacted firms and provision of legal workers to such firms; protection of public assistance resources through better screening and identification of applicants; and curbs on imports of temporary foreign workers for firms that will now have access to Mexican labor in Mexico. Finally, the United States must consistently press Mexico for higher safety, environmental and labor standards at the workplace to improve the job satisfaction and quality of life of working Mexicans who might otherwise migrate, as well as to narrow Mexico's labor cost advantages over the United States.

Nothing.
And then they claim they RIGHTFULLY belong in San Diego, California, and USA?
I don't think they know what the word "belong" means.
Only Americans have helped the victims of the fires, and showed brother/sisterhood. Isn't this reason enough to say "illegals go home, you are not, and never will be one of us?"
