I have concert tickets but I found better seats. I need money to buy those instead, so can I sell the tickets I have now for more than I purchased them for? I have heard that this can be against the law, what do you think?

It is a fact of life that racism has been around ever since man kind. Than why do so many say move on and not see the duty in correcting the wrong and making it right for the future and your loved ones? Why are so many so eager to claim a higher ground and escape from the truth that racism and discrimination is wrong, unfair, immoral and unjust?
Who are these people who have so much wisdom for the victims of injustice? have they ever lived with such discrimination and pain? what gives them the moral ground to tell victims of unfairness and injustice to move on and pretend it never happenned? Who are these masters of disguise who feel no pain as those who are victimized by racial discrimination?
Where do they come from, are they quitters who just won't acknowledge the problem and are unwilling to get involved? Are these people just benefactors of other peoples demise and pain?
Please, if you are white, what moral ground do you have to give advise on such an issue? Please explain.

Why is that laws affecting minorities and people of color cant be established and enforced by minorities and people of color?
How would the white fellow Americans feel if people of color made all the rules and laws relating to fairness, injustice, inequality and racial discrimination?
Would the White Americans feel offended or would they feel minorities are not fit or should not have that right?
Why are all laws of fairness, injustice and racial discrimination made by all white congress and senators? Is this fair? Is it fair, Is this morally correct? Should the laws of civil rights, injustice, equality be made by minorities only since they are the ones who are and have been subjected to injustice and racism?
Is it time to answer such questions?
Should'nt the civil rights laws be made by people of color and minorities since it affects them directly and adversly?
Who here has the moral and ethical right to make policies and laws affecting the lives of people of color and minorities

It appears that the civil rights act of 1964 and the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission was both enacted and established to protect the rights of minorities and people of color.
Yet it also appears that both of these acts were established to enacted by the all white voters in Congress and Senate.
At the same time these very voters who were all white and owners of businesses set in place limitations that makes it impossible for people of color to fight for their rights in courts by setting statue of limitations and passing and or supporting private justice called "Arbitration" that allow the empl;oyers to keep the charges of racial discrimination out of courts.
Aren't the congressman and senators all taking part in racial discrimination by allowing employers to protect themselves from lawsuits?
What is the point of making laws that are impossible to enforce or does not allow the persson of color to who is victimized to have his day in courts by obstacles of lack of money.

Bush ignores laws he inks, vexing Congress.

I guess my specific question is... Do we really need a loophole allowing torture? Go ahead and defend the commander in chief.

Why was it not stopped by the Founders of our country. They did write the constitution, didn't they? I am sure they understood what they meant.

Can somebody give me some examples of things that might get a lawyer disbarred? ( besides lying to their clients of course, because it seems that that's what they got their bachelors degree for!!)

There is so little money, that it's not worth hiring a lawyer. We don't even know where to start. His death was unexpected, and there is no one named on his account.

why is it that reporter get mad when the Congressmen hide behind thier offices when acting unethically and/or illegally, yet have no problem hiding behind the First amendment ? I just want to know if telling the world about a secret government program that is allegedly perfectly legal is a violation of public trust and our own safety during war. It sems that any of us "regular people" would get in BIG trouble if we revealed classified information.
