Law & Ethics - December 2006

You have to be against capital punishment, but support abortion on demand.
You have to believe that businesses create oppression and governments create prosperity
You have to believe that guns in the hands of law-abiding Americans are more of a threat than U.S. nuclear weapons technology in the hands of Iran and North Korea.
You have to believe that global temperatures are less affected by cyclical documented changes in the earth's climate and more affected by soccer moms driving SUV's.
You have to believe that gender roles are artificial but being homosexual is natural.
You have to believe that self-esteem is more important than actually doing something to earn it.
You have to believe that Mel Gibson spent $25 million of his own money to make The Passion of the Christ for financial gain only.
You have to believe the NRA is bad because it supports certain parts of the Constitution, while the ACLU is good because it supports certain parts of the Constitution.
More to come.

I think we should. I think it's dumb how their criminal records are wiped clean when they turn 18. If they do a crime, it should haunt them for the rest of their lives like adults. It's just incentive for some to do crimes in their teenage years.

We have been working with a real estate agent for 4 months. Our listing agreement was for 3 months and we relisted for another 3. During that time we have dropped the price 3 times and now after we renewed with them they are strongly recommending that we drop the price drastically .We suggested that they lower the commission, and we will give them an exclusive right to sell at much lower price. The realty management is discouraging the agent from doing an exclusive listing at a lower commission, and a much lower selling price. They are ,in effect, forcing us to keep the price high. They want us to reduce the price drastically, but not reduce the commission. They are not flexible. The price they are asking us to drop it to we feel is totally unreasonable. A home next door sold for $ 50,000 more than they want us to list for. This was only 2 months ago! Our homes and properties are comparable. We feel they are not working in our best interest.
We are not happy campers; and want out

between (outlawing abortion and eliminating the death penalty) or (allowing both abortion and the death penalty), which would you choose and why?

No mixing and matching...choose one or the other.

It was my first offense and I am flying out to London this week. The offense will be cleared from my record on March 3, 2007 after I submit paperwork from this alcohol possession course. I submitted my passport to the SF office and it will be ready on Wednesday. Everyone I talked to (online and passport customer service) said it should not be a problem, but I am scared it will be. Is anyone 100% sure I will get approved if this is the ONLY thing on my record?

Her and an 18 yr old girl friend have been fighting for a week. The other girl was staying at our house for about a month ( and they work together)before they got in the fight, and she moved out. My daughter told me that she had found out that she started doing drugs and that she didn't want to be around it or have anything to do with it. (It's pretty bad stuff!!!) My daughter was upset that she brought it into our home and that she wasn't going to be around her if that was what she wanted for her life. They got into a yelling match and went there own ways. Now, the other girl says that she may loose her job because my daughter is telling every one (that asks) we she had to move out. My daughter tells them the truth, She was doing drugs and i don't want anything to do with it and she picked that over our friendship.
The 18 yr. old says that if she (my child) keeps telling people that she's a druggie- that she will sue her for slander. That her dads lawyer is ready and waiting?

If you and your girlfriend(significant other), were traveling through the southwest near the Mexican border, and were flagged down to help a man, but it turned out to be a trap, and you strangled him during the altercation that occurred, would you tell the police, or would you drag his body 100 yards into the scrub brush, and drive off?

On a regular basis i see women asking what they should do bc after an abortion they're having bleeding, cramping, and even fainting issues. I mean you should obviously see a doctor but you have to understand that nature never intended for us to rip our children out of us before they're suppose to be born. Having an abortion is like my car crash. I broke bone several places in my arm... for some reason one of the breaks refuses to heal but yet im growing bone in my elbow where its not suppose to be. Bc of the extreme trauma to my arm, my body flipped out and doesn't know how to fix its self. Taking a child out of the womb when the body was trying to naturally take care of it has the same tramatising effect. This is why i wish they would tell women the truth when they go to get abortions. They never explain the real long term problems that can come of it.

I'm agaisnt abortion, but for now its legal. I just wish the doctors, nurses, and aides would be more truthful.
