Have you been suspended by being targeted only to return with another new account, thinking that you’re fighting the fight, by heading back in to Y!A and feeding the trolls? Don’t feel badly because you’re not alone. Those numbers equate to many, many millions of people. Do you have numerous accounts simply because if one gets suspended, you can head right over to the next account and continue to ‘fight the fight’ and yep, feed the trolls?
The more accounts that Yahoo suspends and then encourages you to open new ones, the better they look to their advertisers. Your suspended accounts remain, even if you’re incapable of using it, Yahoo does. Yahoo uses it to sell advertising. That’s right, if you open 50 new accounts, they are counted and handed over to advertisers as 50 NEW prospective buyers. Your suspended accounts remain on the books as prospective buyers who might push that button and buy products that are advertised.

grossly unfair.
Wasting tens of thousands of lives and hundreds of BILLIONS of dollars on a pointless war started on LIES by HIS SON - and he's says were Unfair.
What a wacky world they must inhabit - don't you think?

I was in the military before 4 weeks before I got discharged. It was an entry level separation. I usually don't claim it on my applications because I didn't actually serve I only went through training. When they run my background check can they see this and why I got discharged? Thanks in advance.

It doesn't seem to have a chance in countries that have developed laws and regulations to keep abuses from happening.

it was after my teen neighbors had a small party on their deck. all the eggs thrown was on the side of where their party was too. they threw it all on the fire escape door for the basement. what kind of kids get pleasure out of defacing a stranger's property with gross crap that gets spoiled and attracts bugs and maggots in the backyard? lol plus i have 2 dogs who are in the backkyard most of the time.

maybe it's a racism? they're all white and my family is asian. im 20 and my sisters are teenagers. eh. =( i cant shake it off. we never did anything to them. my dad doesnt want a fence. i keep telling im over-reacting. but im bi-polar and i change my mind about things a lot and get emotional when i shouldnt. heh.

the indian neighbors across the street, had their back windows broken from strangers throwing rocks. our suburban neighborhood is pretty up-scale.

In 1939 Hitler was intent East..not West.Was it possible that if we had not confronted him in September 1939-April 1940 (Phoney War) he would have attacked with a free hand into Russia and won.Thus giving him a lasting victory,peace in Europe and living room he needed.
We should have defended ourselves but not waged war.
We did in fact successfully defend GB
Our Empire would have been strong and Japan would not have seen the chance to attack.
Therefore in hindsight accepted we could have avoided WW2 and legacy we now inhabit.
Its just worth discussing...as it is a different way...War was NOT inevitable...it was waged
The enemy of my enemy is not MY friend in my book.
The double standards as history has been writen by the West since 1945 is obvious to me
1/Nazi Germany-Evil genocidal bastards to be totally wiped out with salivation
2/Mother Russia kindly occupiers.Uncle Joe...ahhh nice old grandfather

Thankyou for some great answers that have put me right on some things

It occurs to me that the exodus of ignorant, abused, peasants out of Mexico and into America (thus, their becoming felons in this country) needs to be addressed at the source... I am told that the Mexican government is racist against it's own people; corrupt, and that it has Mafia tactics. Okay. Why can't America,through all of its billions of tax dollars(which we are throwing at a useless war in Iraq in the name of "National Security"), redirect that money by backing some Mexican Freedom Fighters so that our borders can be secured, the Mexican government can be overturned, and Mexicans can be happier in their country and stay there? Simple, isn't it? What 's wrong with this plan? What would you do differently to keep Mexicans in Mexico?

FYI

I have no problems with legal Mexican immigrants in America...just the flood of illegal Mexicans into this country.

SIOUX CITY, Iowa — Democratic presidential frontrunner Hillary Clinton’s campaign admitted Friday that it planted a global warming question in Newton, Iowa, Tuesday during a town hall meeting to discuss clean energy.

Clinton campaign spokesman Mo Elliethee admitted that the campaign had planted the question and said it would not happen again.

"On this occasion a member of our staff did discuss a possible question about Senator Clinton's energy plan at a forum,” Elliethee said.

“However, Senator Clinton did not know which questioners she was calling on during the event. This is not standard policy and will not be repeated again.”

In a state where the caucus is held sacred and the impromptu and candid style of the town hall meeting is held dear, Clinton’s planted question may come as a great offense to Iowans.

According to a report on the Grinnell University Web site, the Clinton campaign arranged for some of the questions for the candidate to be asked by college students:

"On Tuesday Nov. 6, the Clinton campaign stopped at a biodiesel plant in Newton as part of a weeklong series of events to introduce her new energy plan. The event was clearly intended to be as much about the press as the Iowa voters in attendance, as a large press core helped fill the small venue....

"After her speech, Clinton accepted questions. But according to Grinnell College student Muriel Gallo-Chasanoff ’10, some of the questions from the audience were planned in advance. 'They were canned,' she said. Before the event began, a Clinton staff member approached Gallo-Chasanoff to ask a specific question after Clinton’s speech. 'One of the senior staffers told me what [to ask],' she said.

"Clinton called on Gallo-Chasanoff after her speech to ask a question: what Clinton would do to stop the effects of global warming. Clinton began her response by noting that young people often pose this question to her before delving into the benefits of her plan.

"But the source of the question was no coincidence — at this event 'they wanted a question from a college student,' Gallo-Chasanoff said."

The tape of the event shows that the question and answer went as follows:

Question: "As a young person, I'm worried about the long-term effects of global warming How does your plan combat climate change?

Clinton: "Well, you should be worried. You know, I find as I travel around Iowa that it's usually young people that ask me about global warming."

The campaign's admission that it planted the question may be another blow to the New York senator's image as a trustworthy politician

My friend just sent me this email. I thought I'd help her out by polling the community:

"Hi Guys,

Listen, I'm doing a paper for my political science class and I need to take a poll ....If you guys could just answer yes or no to the following question, I'd really appreciate it..... It'll help me get a good grade!! Thanks!

Should we be willing to give up some of our basic civil liberties in order to protect ourselves and our country from the threat of terrorism?"

With an increasing number of disgruntled Americans looking at their politicians the same way as a women would be eyeballing her soon to be rapist, I had to ask this question! With the MYRIAD of problems in our republic that NEVER seem to get resolved, has ANYONE ever thought that the ones your electing DON'T want the problems resolved, for THEIR best interest??? I mean if you hire a security service to protect your estate against burglary & your estate is burgled fifteen times in the first twelve months of the service, might you figure that the security service is bogus, or worse yet, might be committing the burglaries themselves? Simple math here folks...politician = burglary, representative = security. I mean voting for the politicians is like introducing Charlie Manson to your daughter for her first date, I mean ya know whats gonna happen, why do ya do it?! Is your candidate constitutionally based or just another burglar? You tell me!!!
