Law & Ethics - November 2006

Why do they demand rights for their choices in life, yet many of them deny even the most basic human rights for people who chose cannabis (pot) over alcohol?.. Anyone who has done any reading on the subject knows there are more people who use cannabis, then there are homosexuals in the US and that it is far less damaging than alcohol... Millions of people can't even drink alcohol for health reasons, their rights are being completely denied, so why should gays insist that people educate themselves about homosexuality, when many of them condemn people for using cannabis (pot) without ever educating themselves on the subject?... (and reading government funded propaganda is not educating yourself, it's "brainwashing".

President Enrique Bolanos signed a bill Friday banning abortion in all cases — including when a woman's life is endangered.

The six-year prison term for performing illegal abortions remains unchanged under the new law.President Enrique Bolanos had sought stiffer sentences of up to 30 years for women who had abortions and for those who aided them.

Only asking for opinions as it is another country's law and not the United States, so no one can change how they want to rule.

My friends mom called the other day becuase of me and my friends argument. Me and my friend already talked about and where fine again. but her mom called and it sorta made more turmoil and later on I found out that she recordied her and my moms phone conversation with out my mothers consent, that is illegal right? Its not like cops where involved and recording a rapist confess or something so I thought that its not legal and our parents had nothing to do with the argument and it was a stupid fight so why would she even record it?

Police departments bought Taser Guns Not Understanding that If You Shock Someone Too Many Times, THEY CAN DIE.because the electrical currents of the body become distorted. Many people have been killed by tasers. The Taser company owner to make sales said he would taser his own kids.

Crazy Police use tasers on children as young as six years old at elementary schools.

Tasering an "unruly" person ONCE is supposed to the be "correct effective" way, but police are completely untrained and overzealous.

No one should be tasered for simply walking out of a building.

Hi, earlier this year I released a book. Another author has since released a book. It is clear to me that the author has taken my book, and reworded much of it. In some instances not even bothering to reword it. I believe there is significant case of plagiarism.

I live in the UK. Preferably I would like to sort it out with the publisher ammicably, although I will go to court if necessary.

Im fairly intelligent and am quite willing to take the case to court myself, although I cannot afford to pay a legal team.

I would like to know how to prepare a legal case for plagiarism?

I'm reasonable man. What is the best way to make initial contact with the publisher? where I can learn what forms I need etc. Procedures, online resources etc?

thank you

I was recently rear ended on the freeway by a work truck, and am currently seeing a chiropracter (as well as my daughter, who was also in the accident). I used my insurance initially, because the owner of the company wasn't returning my phone calls. The guy has insurance, but doesnt want to use it, so when all is said and done, he will have to reimburse my insurance out of his pocket. I'm not using a lawyer, so after my car has been fixed and the Dr. releases us, how do I know what to ask for pain and suffering?

The fines levied on corporations are too tiny to get their attention in most cases, and are just considered a business cost.
Revoking or amending their charters for violations would send out major signals. The attorney general of a state may revoke a corporate charter. It was considered for Unocal in California.
Of course the investment ramifications would be huge,
and make other corporations pay attention, and be better citizens.

Every motorist pays the same amount for road tax,regardless of how much they use the road:someone who covers only 1,000 miles a year pays the same as someone who covers 20,000.This is surely unfair.The justification for having a road tax system is that it brings in revenue for the goverment,revenue which should be used to improve the road system and to help reduce levels of population.But even more revenue could be brought in by scrapping the system and replacing it with an increase in the amount of tax on fuel.This must be not only a better way of raising revenue but also a much fair system.It is a change which should therefore be made.

If the answer is yes, is that right and doesn't it fly in the face of states' rights; one of the fundamental structures of our government. If a state creates a law the feds, don't like they can just force the state to change via money.

In a roman catholic family, the father writes the Will and he is unable to register the property till his death. After his death the house and land is registered in the name of the mother. However suddenly out of the blue , the mother along with one of the daughters decide to sell the land without informing any of the other children and they are allowed to go scot free. There is no mention of the members of the family in the will, neither have any children consented to the sale. Can this Sale be quashed, as otherwise it would become unfair to some and fair to some as the daughter who has induced the mother to sell the land and house would have pocketed the balance amount besides the registered amount received in White. Can this sale be quashed. Please reply sooon.
