If I can prove that a 29 year old man dated a 16 year old girl, should I turn this person into the proper authorities? Does it qualify this person as a sexual predator/offender? I have several myspace comments printed out that confirms the relationship. Do I need more than this? I only know his first name. I can't stand people like this, but I'm not sure where I should go to turn this person in. Or if I even can...Any suggestions??

I saw Rudy Giuliani speak at my company yesterday. America doesn't have a choice. Rudy Giuliani must be our nation's next president. The other candidates are running to satisfy their own ego, much like our current president did (and we know how well that's gone). Giuliani is running because he truly wants to see this country succeed and stay safe from the terrorist threats that plague this world. I saw the New York City skyline burning on 9/11 and no U.S. city should repeat that sight. In my opinion no other candidate has the leadership qualities and crime fighting experience he possesses. It's time for strength and stability. It's time for Rudolph Giuliani.

CIA tape scandal?
President Bush wanted Harriet Miers to be Supreme Court Justice but was so unpopular even with the lap dog republican congress that Bush removed her from consideration. Now Harriet Miers is up to her neck in yet another Bush/Republican scandal the CIA destruction of evidence of a crime scandal & hiding information from our Government.

WE WOULD RATHER DO BUSINESS WITH 1000 AL QAEDA TERRORISTS THAN ONE SINGLE AMERICAN SOLDIER


This sign was prominently displayed in the window of a business in Philadelphia. You are probably enraged at the thought of such an inflammatory statement. However, we are a society which holds Freedom of Speech as perhaps our greatest liberty.


And after all, it's just a sign.


You may ask what kind of business would dare post such a sign.


It was a funeral home. God Bless America!

How bad do you think the rich-poor divide in the UK is? With an administratively weak government, are we heading toward a greater socio-econimic division within the population?


What do you think?

An American was on Question Time last week and he said that nowhere in Europe did a political party resemble the Repulicans in terms of what they stand for - church involvement, pro guns etc - I was just wondering if a party did take the same stance as the Republicans would you vote for them?

I keep reading this piece of ridiculous propaganda and I why people would believe it.

The basic propaganda is:

After the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which the majority of Democrats from the North and South opposed, some Democrats left the Democratic party and became Republicans.

Historically the Republicans have always been the Anti-Slavery, Pro-Civil Rights party.

Historically Democrats have always been the Pro-Slavery, Anti-Civil-Rights party.

Why would Democrats, supposedly those who opposed the Civil Rights Act, leave the Historically Anti-Civil-Rights party and join the Historically Pro-Civil-Rights party?

I don't understand how anyone could believe that.

here may have been one or two Congressional Democrats who opposed the Civil Rights Act in 1964 and who joined the Republican Party, but, certainly not the majority of Anti-Civil-Rights Democrats in Congress.

Why believe this obvious propaganda?

Thanks.

My friend slept one night in jail for being drunk in public?
I know that doesnt make him a criminal, but I am not sure what regulations there are. He just paid a fine and didnt appear infront of the judge and they didnt take his fingerprints.. He applied fo a job abroad and he needs to get the proof of a clear criminal record..Is that going to show up in his record. Can anyone answer me please.

Hello, i'm italian and i saw a documentary on History Channel about "Shock and Awe" the strategy used in Irak to destroy the Saddam' governament. I asked this in USA
http://uk.answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AooFG8BWPW1_7NtUxBoV9rggBgx.;_ylv=3?qid=20071217075746AAnLRa9
But now i'm wondering what do the english people think about this strategy of war, cause their soldiers are in the same situations as the american troopers as in Irak.
In my opinion dropping bombs to destroy the most important buildings is what the terrorists needed to get their strategy of blood and death. What do you think about it?

(I have to apologyze for my english)

I want to move to America, but the whole gun thing frightens me.... I want to know which is the safest place to raise a young family. A location that dosn't get the twisters and has a population of about 50,000 give or take. My husband has dual citizenship. We are Australian... and want a change of culture, even though I am a little scared of the concept, I think It'll be good and provide us with more possibilities ,.,,,etc etc.......
