Law & Ethics - July 2006

I have, it began in my teens 'after' a very sheltered childhood. They told me to my face I was being researched, in other words and not for any bad reason. It went from that to regular abuse and never stopped. I've never been able to get it stopped. I've read one account of someone experiencing the same but could not communicate with him for some reason.

This is mainly for the people in the UK :

(situation a)
I let my dog out of my house and it runs to the end of my garden and attacks a young man ripping his face to pieces... The man is in agony and scarred for the rest of his life... The dog is caught and destroyed by ther authorities because it is dangerous.

(situation b)
A man walks out of a pub and attacks another man beating him to the ground and then kicking him in the head so many times that the man is left with brain damage for the rest of his life... The man is caught and pleads guilty resulting in a reduced sentance and with the possability of parole he may be released after a few years.

Why is it OK to kill a dog for being violent and leaving someone physically scarred but not OK to kill a human who leaves someone incapable of leading a normal life..?

I personally think that if a human is deemed to be "Feral" by nature, that they should be destroyed...

What do you think..?

My children aged 13 and 15, haven’t had contact with there father for about 4 years, He was very abusive our family court papers state the contact must be initiated by the children and they, both, for there own reasons have chosen not to allow him to participate in there lives.
I have solely paid for my daughter to travel to the USA in January, I have sent the passport forms to the father and he hasn’t responded, so my next step is local court. I will be representing my self. I’m sure I will be granted an order that will satisfy the passport office. What im afraid of is the father asking for the details of the trip. Because Jessica doesn’t wont to see her dad, him turning up at the airport will only upset her. She doesn’t need this right before going on her first trip over seas. My question is…is there a site or a person that can help me know my rights in this situation .

More importantly our energy resources/enviroment, and go some way to making life more comfortable for millions of others !

Why not make it law that landlords both private and social i.e. housing associations not only 'draughtproof' properties but double glaze them as well, in the UK there are hundreds of thousands of single glazed properties.

How much energy over a winter season could be saved?

A Flint, Michigan boy shoots his 6 year old classmate in the head and kills her. Two Littleton, Colorado boys gun down their school, killing over a dozen and injuring several others. These are a few of the many highly publicized acts of children killing children. But it happens all the time, especially in urban areas. Children, as young as elementary school aged, are shot and murdered by their peers. Kids bring guns to school.

What the hell is happening? This didn't always happen? What about society has changed that children are killing each other at these rates?

And are the killers really to blame? Are young children really capable of understanding the consequences of their actions? How should the be punished? And how can we make sure our own kids are safe at school or even hanging out with their friends before they come home?

I've gotten some flack for my icon, but how can I feel like a free American when I'm denied normal civil rights.

No matter how long I am with my spouse, no matter what ceremonies we may have our government won't allow us to file our taxes as a married couple.

Our wills that name our spouses can be easily contested by families that have thrown us away and never wanted anything to do with us while we are alive, but are all too happy to come and rip off our surviving spouses of jointly owned property when we die.

Just last year my own spouse waited in a hospital waiting room and was given no word at all about my condition while a 45 minute exploratory surgery turned into a six hour ordeal with me fighting for my life.

I live with taxation without representation. why wouldn't I feel like a prisoner in my own country?

Why is it OK to deny human rights to Americans and send our young people to die to give human rights to those in other countries?

Is there anyone else out there who gets a little peeved when they read this question on their tax form?

I personally don't want to contribute to any party, Democrat, Republican, Communist or whatever, and it ticks me off that the IRS is given the extra burden and cost of collecting money for political war chests.

Who's paying for the extra people doing this, (most likely an entire department of them, accountants, bookeepers and clerks by the score)....?... I mean, who's paying their salaries and insurance, vacations and health care benefits --- and who's contributing to their retirement funds? I suspect that we are.! Grrrrrr....!

Shouldn't the political parties be made to be responsible for footing the bill and doing the work of collecting their own donation money.

It never ceases to amaze me about how much more retarded Bush can be. I have disagreed with EVERY SINGLE one of his actions. Recently, however, he appears to be going for gold. with his UN ambassador foolishly vetoing the resolution for Israel and Palestine to stop fighting (this embassador was chosen by Bush to be as undiplomatic as possible. Bush the idiot chooses an imperialist to be a diplomat--can you be any stupider (or more imperialist?). Now any man alive today in the US knows it's foolish to solicit unrequested massages AT THE G8 SUMMIT.

Claims dept "calls StLouis, StLouis said letter went to recipient May5 and did not get a reply so they closed the file"I ask recipient and recipient did not ever receive a letter from StLouis, another lie from claims.In other words, the claims woman has lied all along. Her first impression was that my claim was "for loss" and she has since lied to cover her initial mistake, lying all the way through. Forget the money now, she interfered

I don't agree with how the jurys are selected. I don't think most of the people selected should serve on a jury. I think a lot of people found guilty are not and I think a lot of guilty people walk away.

Apparantly family maintenance can and will provide legal aid to a mother in order to help her obtain a cild support order from the courts, you dont have to be legaly married or even the biolgical father, the only criteria is if the man has supported the kids for a period of time (2 years) This just doesn't seem right to me.
