Okay, here's the thing. I am aware that a few associates of mine are planning to tag up some means of public transportation. Can I still get arrested by the police, even though all I really did is not tell them about said tagging? Real answers only, please.

How hard is it to get a job as a Police Officer? Would applying with an associates degree in Criminal Justice versus just 12 credits towards it make that big of a difference?

My husband called me from his training base where he is receiving Infantry Training. I love to hear from him and afterwards my morale goes up 1000%!! Most of our conversation was about family and the expression of our own special feelings of love for each other. Nevertheless, I'm a very logical person (I'm a Math major in community college but will drop that to go and be with him together with our sweet little darling soon to be born. Anyway my logical side started questioning him about his training and what sort of weapons and tactics he's been learning. Sometimes I get into a mode of speaking that borders on interrogation (lol lol). Anyway he told me that OPSEC (operational security) prevents him from discussing those things even with his loving wife (lol lol). Ok, we developed the Atom Bomb and the Soviet Government stole the technology from us. Gunpowder and guns replaced spears. The ability to work and process metal ore developed into weapons used in ALL armies.

An 85-pound German shepherd has become the unlikely face of the immigration debate in upscale Princeton, N.J., after a judge ordered the dog to be put down for attacking an illegal immigrant last summer.

Thousands of people have flooded the Internet and even petitioned the governor to ask that Congo be spared for his attack on Honduran landscaper Giovanni Rivera, who was injured seriously in June and later awarded $250,000 in insurance money.

Even Congo's owners, Guy and Elizabeth James, said their case has nothing to do with immigration. They claim their dog was provoked by Rivera.

"They hit my dogs. They grabbed my wife and that's what this case is about," Guy James said.

Currently Congo is living at home, and the James family has appealed the local judge's ruling to put him down. The case now is with New Jersey's Superior Court. http://www.abcnews.go.com/GMA/WaterCooler/story?id=3940538
“The illegal grabbed the wife and dragged her to the ground. Apparently, he was using her as a human shield. When the wife screamed at being assaulted, the dog attacked.”

Hmmm, why would he grab the wife and drag her to the ground BEFORE the dog attacked?

I have just been summoned for jury duty for a trial that says it is expected to last 30 days. Here in B.C., missing work for jury duty is considered unpaid leave, so employers are not required to pay wages for days missed. However, I have heard that although not required by law, some employers will pay an employee's wages for the time they miss.

What are some other peoples' experience with having to leave work for jury duty, and what would be a reasonable way to request compensation from my employer for lost wages? For example, will they get a tax break if they compensate me while I'm gone, etc?

Thanks.

http://www.gallup.com/poll/102943/Republicans-Report-Much-Better-Mental-Health-Than-Others.aspx

Fifty-eight percent of Republicans report having excellent mental health, compared to 43% of independents and 38% of Democrats.

"one cannot say whether something about being a Republican causes a person to be more mentally healthy, or whether something about being mentally healthy causes a person to choose to become a Republican"

The fact is this: Democrats are mentally unstable.

Also, who do you want it to be?

My opinion; the US history and culture is saturated with things like rights and equality, so Americans will probably be more interested in Obama or Clinton simply for the millstone it would represent upon being elected.

I have not made up my mind yet, but I am leaning towards Ron Paul

If a letter is one-sixteenth of an inch thick then that is a pile 122 miles high!
Are you telling me that NO-ONE has noticed a pile of letters 122 MILES HIGH !?
Alternatively, if they were laid out flat then they would cover 67 football pitches!

One time I was pulled over for no apearant reason, it was 2:00am I had been drinking but was driving fine, in fact my friend that was with me, who doesn't drink, let me drive because he didn't think anything was wrong with me. I was pulled over by a state trooper and arrested for DUIL. When I went to court the officer took the stand and stated that he pulled me over because I crossed the center line 3x and the fog line once. What he didn't know was that my lawyer had supenaed the police car video. The video showed me passing the trooper in the oppisite direction, him doing a U turn and following me for several miles without me crossing over anything. This guy was caught in a flat out lie. The Judge's comments were "you can't go around pulling over people for swerving within their own lane otherwise people would have to drive perfectly straight and that's nor concieveable. However being that it was 2:00am, I think the officer was justified by doing so. Do you have similar story?
