Since it's illegal for someone under 21 to purchase alcohol, wouldn't it be illegal for the store owner to make the person pay for the broken bottles? Since the person is over 18 his/her parents are no longer responsible for any of his/her actions, so they couldn't make the parents pay.

It's time for the gloves to come off in the war on terror in Israel. It's time to think about an 'ultimate' solution to the Palestinian question. Brutal measures are needed now in the war for Israel's survival. The time has come for the extirpation of the Palestinian sub-humans.

hi, i just turned 18 last month and i want a big tattoo going down both of my arms, it's going to be in arabic lol, it's nothing bad. it's just a tattoo.

i'm also planning to go to college for criminal justice after i graduate, and work up as private investigator or something. and i'm going to start off as a police officer probably, do you think the police department will descriminate me because of tattoos? i mean isn't there a law saying just because someone has tattoo then you can't stop hiring them? because isn't that against the freedom thing in the commendment or something? lol sorry, i forgot everything i've learned in 9th grade about those amendment and freedom stuff, etc.

but yeah anyways, do you think so? you think they won't hire me because of tattoos? because isn't that against the law? so yeah will they still hire me if i have tattoos on my arms? big ones.

Couple of days after my wife became the manager at an apartment complex a Mexican tenant came to her. What he wanted was for her to report him as an illegal immigrant. Seems he couldn't afford the trip back home but knew that we'd do that for him at no cost.

Why didn't he just turn himself in?

Democrats do not want to raise taxes on people in the middle class and lower, I seriously doubt that those of you on Yahoo make more than two million dollars a year.

Most of you would get a tax cut and more tax credits and would benefit from a Democratic President, But you've bought the lie that Dems just want to raise YOUR taxes., it's not true.

SO why do you belive it? And who tells you this?

Writing this for a friend because I don't know what to tell them.
They were sexually assaulted and almost raped and the cops don't seem to be doing anything. One was about 2 or 1 year ago now and the other weeks ago.
What do you do? Call the cops and ask em why nothing is happening?

Looks like we pulled his cover! How can he support somebody who approves of abortion, multiple marriages and supports gay rights? To me, Robertson is the epitome of a hypocrite.

I know contempt of court is when you don't abide by a court order. So, in a divorce case, if your ex doesn't do what they are supposed to do, do you have to re-hire your lawyer and pay mega bucks to go back to court? or since it is contempt of court, so they have to pay, is it split? or what?

I was arrested back in 1996 or 1997 for a suspended driver's license in Illinois, but the charges were dropped because it was a clerical error. Is this still on my record? I never had any police contact after that or any type of criminal record. How good is Illinois at maintaining these records? Is there an online database that I can check? Thanks!

As an author and publisher of three books on the water supply infrastructure, I wonder how much the American public understands about our critical water supply infrastructure. Because this infrastructure is so critical to our country's well being, what is the best way to raise the level of awareness of the general public? If the public was more aware of the issues involved would that force more reasoned debate and discussion of the solutions?
