Law & Ethics - December 2006

In other words, what's your price to take someone else's life? Would you have a higher price for one sort of person (like a mother) than another (a homeless person)?

all these offers of full compensation for injuries, they may sound good but thats what is agreed between the lawyers from both sides after sitting down for a meal or drinks the deciding what you get, of corse you get all that they decide then agree a fat fee for each other which is as much and mainly more than you get. unfair and unethical I think.

I live on a busy street where cars are always parked in the road to the point traffic is held up if two cars are coming from opposite sides (one side of traffic has to stop until the other side goes around the cars parked on the side of the road).

Anyway, my neighbor is guilty of parking his car in the road. He gets a ticket here & there but not enough to stop him from parking there. As of late, all cars parked on the road are getting egged. My neighbor has been egged 5 times while parked in the road and only now will park in his driveway because of the EGGS, not the parking tickets. I’ve also notcited many other cars are using their driveways more now (I have heard they were egged several time too).

Honestly, I’m glad most of these cars are parked off the road, as they should be. It makes for an easier drive on the street without having to stop every 20 feet for cars parked where they don’t belong.

So my question – is this person throwing the eggs a hero because they have take such action to get the people to not illegally park in the road or a criminal because they are taking matters in their own hands?

Murder is defined as "illegal killing with malice aforethought." Abortion fails this definition for two reasons. First, abortion is not illegal, and second, there is no evidence to suggest that expecting mothers feel malice towards their own flesh and blood. ABORTION IS NOT MURDER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I thought capitol punishment wasn't a deterrent! It must be a pretty good deterrent, because people stop committing crimes after they are dead, for some reason!

(This is a little extreme) but I know if I would be put to death for drunk driving, I sure would call a taxi! It would be a deterrent to me!

Do you really think someone would rob a 7/11 if they would never leave prison again? They only do it because they get a month or two in prison, and get out on parole

Per the Judge I'm in a group that is likely to be picked for a trial that will last a week. The final selection is today and I really can't take that much time off work. I'm self employed but the court is not allowing that as an excuse any more. Any tips on how one can get out of being selected with out breaking the law?

I have to write a paper of why I should never use the "N" word. I don't get it thought, I was at school and some black kids were talking to each other, they were saying things like "That ****.a is crazy" and "****.a you lying". I knew one of them so I went to say Hi and said "Whats up my ****.a", so one of the other black kids left and then broght a counselor with him and then the counselor told me that I should never use that word and that I would have to write a paper on why not. I don't get it, that's stupid.

I seem to worry about things a lot, mostly daft things but it keeps me awake all night sometimes. I'm having a legal dispute with a builder just now and everytime theres a development I just cant stop thinking about it.
My job involves enforcement and issuing fines etc. and while I'm on the job I take **** from no-one, but later worry about how they feel (even though they got themselves into the situation).
I've even worried about some of the folk on 'Answers' who are going through a hard time.
How can I stop this and toughen up?

The only way to lower crime and prison costs is to make prison a place that no one wants to go.
Way too many rights are given to convicts. Prison should not be a rehabilitation instatute it should be for PUNISHMENT. Only the very basic needs should be met. Food, clothing and basic hygene are all one needs to survive. Make prison a place where no one wants to go and rehabilitatable people will not return.
No right to vote, file a lawsuit, lift weights, recieve gifts, television or physical contact with anyone on the outside.
Take away these privileges and limit who wants to go to jail. While in prison you should do something for society for free. Something people pay for with taxes that can be done by prisoners.
All surveys cost analyze through administration costs. They fail to analyze the cost of frivilous lawsuits by prisoners and all of the cost due to prisoners privileges.
What do you think?

Is there an (easy) way for me, the sole surviving sibling with deceased parents, to find out where/if my brother had insurance policies? His untimely death has thrown me into a "tizzy." I do not live in either the town or the state where he died and know very little information about this. Rummaging through his "packrat" apartment on the day of his memorial service for a couple hours turned up very little. Other than a trip across the country, where and what are my best resources? Also, how do we (me and my husband) find out about death benefits from any associations he belonged to?
