I have one previous misdameanor posession charge and one previous felony not associated with drugs that I successfully got deferred. I'm doing rehab, AA classes and community volunteer work to help sway the judge. Would this be enough to keep me outta prison (one of the felonies is a 1st degree for mushrooms, the other two are 2nd for weed) and whats the possibility of getting the three felonies on deferred probation?

If you have a criminal offense from years ago, that was expunged, can you legally say on a job application that you have never been arrested? What if they specifically ask if you have an expungment, and then ask what it was for? And, since expungement wipes an offense away, do they have the right to ask if you have had an expungement?

Why can't we just be American or Asian Or Hispanic Or Arabic etc.? It seems pointless to call me Black since my skin is vanillla colored and senseless to call me African American since Africa is a continent with many different cultures in every country. That labeling is prejudice and shows how racists our country is since most applications for anything we do will have you name your race/color. It is crazy to see us in the 21st century and still act like ancient Dutch and Boors. We are people first and by gender second. Not a box of crayola.

You go out to dinner with a friend in New York City. The check comes at the end of the meal, but it does NOT include the $30 bottle of wine you ordered and consumed. You are only charged for the food. Would you consider this to be:

(A) A mistake which you should take advantage (say nothing and leave);

(B) An intentional waiver on the part of the restaurant (say nothing and leave); or

(C) A likely mistake which you should correct (call the oversight to the attention of the waiter and pay for the wine.

This is both a moral and a legal question. I am interested in not only what is ethically right, but also what is required under the law.

If the non-custodial parent has made payments off and on. Does he still have his parental rights? And if the child is a teenager and wants to live with the non-custodial parent. Will I then be responsible to pay child support. I am married, but things are not great, my husband and son butt heads alot. And I don't want my son to have to live this way, especially if I'm not prepared to leave the marriage at this time. We live in the state of Arkansas I don't know if the laws are any differt.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!

I think it's a grossly unfair overlook of teenage opinion. If you agree with it, feel free to state your case - but if not, go to www.freedom-in-food.tk to join the rebellion! And if you are opposed and also have a protest organisation, let me know!

Looking up this topic and reading other peoples' opinions I hear arguments like: If we were a fascist country discussions like this would not even be taking place. If we were a fascist country, we'd only have one party and the center of doctrine would be a belief in a single deity. If we were a fascist country, we'd not allow liberalism, communism etc..

It's very interesting that all those facts have been eroded and are currently and very strongly being challenged and oposed by not only the ruling party but also a large percentage of the population.

Another alarming fact is the amount of laws being passed "for the protection of the general population". It's a clear fact that there are more laws being passed than those that get abolished. We know for a fact that the government intimidates the general population by threathening prosecution for violation or even suspicion of violation of these new laws.

My daughter just had her first "alone" visitation with her biological father, after a temporary court order allowed visitation. Visitations have always been in my presence because the child does not know the bioligcal father and she is so young in age.

After the alone visitation, it was clear that the biological father was filling my daughter with things like saying that mommy is bad. I know this because my daughter is just old enough to communicate, but not old enough to FULLY communicate. The day after the visitation she kept randomly screaming "No Mommy's Not Bad!" so you can tell where I think she may have heard this.

There is one more visitation scheduled before the final hearing...what are my chances of getting an emergency hearing scheduled to stop the next visitation as I feel that the visitation could potentially harm my daughter (mentally not so much physically)?

This is a true story!
As everyone knows, Colombia has a terrible problem with narco-terrorism. Well, a group of soldiers were patrolling, and stumbled across a huge amount of money hidden in the jungle.
One soldier left the group to answer the call of nature, and found himself squatting on a fortune! About $US 46,000,000. They split the money among themselves, and spent most of it in record time! Wine, women and song! As would happen, the Colombian authorities discovered this and now these soldiers are facing trial.
You are the judge in the trial, what would you do? You have to take into account the terrible pressure and conditions that these soldiers were under: constant enemy fire, landmines, torrential rain, snakes and creepy crawlies everywhere. As something 0f this magnitude hasn't happened before, Colombian law isn't very clear what the soldiers should have done under these circumstances.
Your decision's final, and cannot be overturned.
Now judge, sentence them

A D.C. federal judge has ruled that begging is a form of free speech protected by the Constitution. That means that mugging is free speech too, only more persuasive.
