I have heard they are not. Does this include black powder revolvers also? Can they be carried concealed with a permit or do I need a permit to carry concealed?

Yes, I know I have asked this question before. You religious fundies just be aware that I voted for him twice. It was a horrible mistake, one in which I am sure some of you feel the same about.
Should it even be investigated more? I think so. After researching in depth, the events of 9/11, I am convinced that Bush new about it in the very least, and let it happen. But I, as well as many others, think he actually orchestrated it to get us into this "Global war on terrorism" ( more like errorism), to implement the start of a New World Order, which will eventually lead to all of our freedoms being taken away, and a prison planet.
Please, this is a serious question, keep your attacks to yourself. I just want to know what people are thinking out there.

I need some advice please.
I am a mum to 6 children and have had some problems with my father and hus partner with the children. I accept that my children should not be left alone with either of them but my mother in law is threatening me that if my children go near my dad she is calling social services. My dad is not that bad and ebcause she does not like him she is blowing everything out of proportion.
I am so so upset that she is threatening me and my husband (her son) and would like some advice on how to shut her up legally.
She is a control freak and likes to control evrything and I cant cope with her anymore.
I appreciate she worries about the children, but I cannot understand why she is threatening me with social services over a small problem.

if the leaders of venezuela and iran were to make good on their promises to double the price of crude oil, what good will a victory in iraq against the terrorists do us? paying 7-8 dollars or more for a gallon of gas, would make the victory parade awfully small.

I understand that people in Europe and Canada especially, see Americans as stupid, obese, violent supporters of George Bush and the war in Iraq. Do they understand that there are Americans who do not support the president and what he is doing and we are not all obese and violent?

Is anyone else getting emails from africans (mainly west africa based) about them offering masses of money. Im tired of these scams and wondering if anyone is doing something about it. The latest i got is about some woman who is terminally ill with breast cancer offering me a cut of $150 million dollars - i feel that is horrendously offensive and is just giving places like nigeria even more of a bad reputation.

It seems my opinions towards illegal immigration translate to me being a racist.

My wife emigrated to the US from Colombia. She is opposed to illegal immigration as much if not more so than I am.

Can anyone please explain to me how a simple belief in opposition to illegal immigration would make either me OR my Colombiana a couple of racists?

The term, neoconservative first was used derisively by democratic socialist Michael Harrington to identify a group of people (who described themselves as liberals) as newly stimulated conservative ex-liberals. The idea that liberalism "no longer knew what it was talking about" is neoconservatism's central theme.

They do not have to be Presidents either...

I think my list goes like this:

1) Richard Nixon
2) Dick Cheney
3) Kenneth Starr
4) Donald Rumsfeld
5) George W. Bush

(and if you are planning on refusing to answer the question and prattle on and on about Hillary Clinton... then ask your own questions, please).

MEXICO CITY, Nov 19 (IPS) - Panic has taken hold of the six million Mexicans who live in the United States without residence permits, because of the ongoing crackdown on "illegal aliens", which has involved an increasing number of raids and deportations.

The Mexican government has announced measures in defence of its citizens across the border, and insists that immigration reform is urgently needed in the U.S. However, the indications are that there will be no reform until 2009 at the earliest.

"We are being harassed and persecuted, and I confess we are extremely nervous. We don’t feel that Mexico is helping us at all," Freddy Batista, a Mexican immigrant who has worked in building maintenance in Los Angeles, California for four years, told IPS. "I’ve thought about not taking my son (aged 12) to school anymore, because they might capture me, or him, and then we’d be separated, which would not be fair to him. But what can I do? He can’t stay home or go into hiding," said Batista in a telephone interview from Los Angeles.
