To keep this kinda brief... SB777 is a referendum that was signed into law by the Govener in Ca. This bill is gona pave the way for onesided views on sexual orientation to be implemented in the classroom, while at the same time deeming contrary views as fostering a " discriminatory bias". If this get's passed into law then as early as 2008 grades K-12 ALL SCHOOLS WILL BE FORCED!
To positively, teach about homosexuality, bisexual and transgender student issue's. If it's not stopped.... SB777 is clear that... NO TEACHER INSTRUCTION and NO SCHOOL ACTIVITY, could "Reflect" or "Promote" a "DISCRIMINATORY BIAS AGAINST ANY PERSON...." Who is homosexual, bisexual or transgender...
What SB777 Does... IS SILENCE ALL OPPOSITION TO IT... and Teacher would be "FORCED" to "PROMOTE" homosexuality!

since the middle east is against the US is this country safe?
i have a feeling that the middle has the US as a number one target.this means if a war starts the US will be hit first(9/11)
but what about a nuclear bombing?
do americans feel safe in one of the most hated countires in the world(dont flame me on this)?

on another topic, what about the shooting,drugs,massacres and crime being commited everyday? the united states isnt even safe as it is.

Would you do your patriotic duty?

There is a suspected Communist household in my sub-division. We have noticed several Prius type vehicles coming and going. Furthermore, there has been a noticible lack of US flag display on essential days such as Veteran's Day, 4th of July, etc

Our concerned group has videotaped enough individuals and vehicles/license plates, etc that we feel comfortable enough to go forward with a criminal complaint. What do you suggest?

My grandmother died in Feb 07 and she left my daughter and my brother $8800 to go towards their school as long as they have passing grades. Here's the issue, she left the money to my uncle to be used for those purposes, when I saw a copy of the will I called him back in September about it and he basically said he wasn't giving me the money for my daughter.

What should I do? I don't have money to sue him, and I make too much to get legal aid. I called a few lawyers and even though they think I have a great case, I don't have the $2500 to retain a lawyer. Should I take him to small claims court? Also, my brother is no longer in school, so should I sue him for the full $8800 or for half of that??

I'm a single parent with two daughters and I'm at my wits end about this? Should I just drop it?

Can anyone give me links or precise information regarding the following (in the U.S.) :

1. Can a cop ask you for your I.D. for no reason at all (he wants to see where you live for example)?

2. Can a cop search your back pack, purse or coat without giving you a reason?

3. Must an American citizen carry I.D. on them at all times (even if they're not driving)?

I'm not really interested if you're caught at an underage party, or at a place where drugs are being sold, I'm talking about the average citizen out walking about at 10 a.m. (going to the local coffee house for coffee) and a cop asks to see their I.D. for no reason at all.

Muslims in Khartoum Sudan are calling for the execution of the teacher whose class named their prized teddy bear Muhammed. What on earth is going on? To say that they are intolerant is a compliment.
Now, do those who oppose the war on terror REALLY think that radical Islam will just go away or that they will come to the table and hammer out an accord? I think not.

I have a relative in my family who has been charged with about 22 charges of police corruption - one of them involved planning a kidnap for exhortion.
Of course, they have been stood down in the force.
They havn't been sentenced as yet.
This is my concern.
My family treat this person normally as though he has done no wrong. Of course, I know we all do wrong, but I am very wary of him and feel as though he is a bad example of how an Officer in the force should be.
As a result, me and my family have distanced ourselves from him and we have been told that we are the bad guys and to just accept him and get on with life.
It's very hard knowing that he was involved in assisting a pedophille get off.
What do you think?
Do you think we should just carry on as normal and pretend he did no wrong?

Now let's get this right, it was the children who named the 'Teddy Bear', NOT the teacher.

I overheard on the radio somebody say it was time to send the S.A.S. to get her out before they behead her.

What do we do now?

There is this guy at work, that is constantly coming on to the women in this company. One day while in my office he insinuated that my lips were DSL's and then another day while he told me to go lower with my arm while he was bending down while I was sitting in my chair. Now, would these comments be considered sexual harassment? Also, has anyone on Answers been sexually harassed and if so, what did you do about it? Thanks

A young child, that parent / person is charged with murder?
2. If a 'criminal kills a pregnant woman, the killer is charged with 'double' or two murders.
3. A mother causes the death of an unborn child, she is NOT charged with anything criminal.
Please, can anyone supply an intelligent answer to my question? I am highly confused, within my own mind, about this murder, double murder, and yet abortion is o.k. 'double standard' thing.
I seldom get into this category, so if this is a question that has asked before, please forgive my entering into this category, uninformed.
Thanks, I'M HERE

Question: What makes a country competent?

Question Details: Please give me in-depth answers and reasons! Thanks!

Deleted Answer: When conservatives are in charge and liberals are left free to do what they do best... whine.

And I am serious. Conservative are better equipped to make the hard choices because these choices should be based on logic and facts. Liberals are terrible at decision making because they base choices on emotion and conspiracy theories.

Examples of liberal whining are sure to follow.... see below.

Jon M: Your answer is the best, you are exactly right.

I have heard this countless times before and once again on question time last night, that the NHS would fall apart if it wasn't for immigration.

This is simply not true at all.

I am a student nurse and I know many many classes of student nurses (99% of them British born) going through the system who cannot get jobs when they graduate because of job freezes in NHS trusts.

Likewise I know many British born trainee doctors who are facing (whilst not on the same scale) the same problem now.

I am not saying that immigrant doctors and nurses do not make a contribution, they do; and a damn good one.

I am just angry that the NHS is being used to defend mass immigration. There is a vast pool of British born doctors and nurses who could very easily keep the NHS going if they were just allowed to get jobs in the fields they have been trained in.

The balance is all wrong at the moment, yes immigrant doctors and nurses make a fine contribution, but they should only be hired
