since when does "coming for a better life" include getting pregnant at such an early age months after ILLEGALLY arriving in a country where you are clearly not welcome??

so here's the thing: i am still in school, and throughout my high school years, i have seen many, newly arriving teen girls who are illegal immigrants (dont give me that garbage of "how do you know"...please, they dont even speak English!!) and they have gotten pregnant within months of arriving here. not only newly arrived illegals, but also ones that have been here for a while now.... and i see them getting all the benefits to the point where having a baby no longer greatly impacts their life and their responsibilities....heck, the school even provives free daycare for their babies, and countless other things. i should know, i live in an area where its a sanctuary for such people!

what is going on with the trend here....since when is all this part of "getting a better life"??

heres the situation:
The husband was very abusive in the past and was already punished for that. now that they are getting divorced and the wife is scared can she file a restraining order based on those past experiences even after he was punished?
or does there have to be new allegations against the husband?




thank you so much :)

My soon to be husband is going to be stationed in Japan in the next 6 months and he wants me to move over there with him. I am a bit reluctant because I want to continue my education. Are their any colleges or schooling for Navy spouses overseas?
Also are their any Navy Support groups for spouses?

"A wise and frugal government, which shall leave men free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor and bread it has earned - this is the sum of good government."

"I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them."

"If God is just, I tremble for my country."

"It is our duty still to endeavor to avoid war; but if it shall actually take place, no matter by whom brought on, we must defend ourselves. If our house be on fire, without inquiring whether it was fired from within or without, we must try to extinguish it. "

"No free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms. "

I'm a Sophmore in Highschool. I've been thinking of a carreer when I graduate lately. Nurse in the Navy sounds like a great job for me. I'm currently in the NJROTC program in my school. I would like some help/advice from people that are in it, or on the way to become a Navy Nurse and travel the World.

From Mark Twain;

"The mania for giving the Government power to meddle with the private affairs of cities or citizens is likely to cause endless trouble, through the rivaly of schools and creeds that are anxious to obtain official recognition, and there is great danger that our people will lose our independence of thought and action which is the cause of much of our greatness, and sink into the helplessness of the Frenchman or German who expects his government to feed him when hungry, clothe him when naked, to prescribe when his child may be born and when he may die, and, in time, to regulate every act of humanity from the cradle to the tomb, including the manner in which he may seek future admission to paradise."

I currently have a friend who has asked me this questions and am not sure to the answer.

A police officer called him and asked him if they could ask him a few questions without notifying him that the conversation was going to be recorded. The phone conversation is now being used against him as evidence in court.

Did the officer need to notify him that he was going to be recorded? If so, is there any Penal Code or legal type of documentation stating this?

I do know that the Miranda Rights did not apply since questioning was being done over the telephone.

I parked my car at the parking lot by the convince store and left for several ours. I don't recall whether I locked the car or not, but when I came back my window was opened, although I am pretty sure that I didn't open it.I inspected my and nothing seem to be missing. Right before I left the car, I remember there was another car occupied by two people parked next to me. I suspect them getting inside my car. Should I report it?

Bhutto is not only national hero, she became international hero also. She was the first moderate muslim leader. pakistan lost, the muslim world lost, especially muslim women lost after her death. she was cosmopolitan, civilized person that taliban and other extremists hate her. Radical islamist must be removed from the world. Muslim women should not be exploited by extremists, muslim women must be rescued from uncivilized extremists. Goodbye Bhutto, God bless her !

In the past few months I read many question about the military and young men wanting not to serve. I taught my son to love his country, his flag, and his freedom. Was that because I was in the Army or did we go wrong somewhere? It really frustrates me?

One of the letters says..rode a motorcycle contrary to the conditions of your learners license and exceeded 70km...and the other says..drove a vehicle at speed exceeding 50km in a 50 km zone. What do they mean. Surely they are not fineing me twice. It was open road out there. Surely this speeding ticket cannot be $630 good god I was only doing 75km or something. They have got to be kidding me.
