I will never understand the court system here in the United States. It protects a mother to the hilt and has no protection for the father. It seems as though the dead beat dad syndrome applies to all fathers good or bad. My husband was recently laid off and when you file with the court of the lay off they don't really decrease the payments they basically put them on hold and you have to pay it when you get back to work. So he goes into arrears. Now I thought the support was suppose to be based on his income well if his income has changed how can they do this? I have lost all faith in the american judisial system it is all for women and the man gets taken to the cleaners.

People say that Michael Richards was out of line, but look at the tape, the black guys he insulted went down to his level and used racial slurs at him too. People will argue that Cracker and ****.er aren't the same, yes they are. They are both words used as racial slurs, simple as that. I know Jesse Jackson wanted to eliminate that word from the English language, but in all fairness, Blacks are the ones that use it all too often, how will he get them to stop using it. Now the black guy that was with Jesse said that because of the incident with Michael, he stopped using the word all together. Oh wow, so all of a sudden he feels the word is degrading, funny how he didn't think so when he used it in his songs. If everyone wants the "N" word to dissapear, then blacks have to set the example and stop using it. They are no victims, they are their worst enemy.

Anyone else think the ban is a little harsh? The argument that it's being banned to protect the smokers is a fallacy at the most. Nobody starts smoking for their health; no means to insult smokers, but if they start, they've made the subconscious decision that their health isn't worth a couple of dollars wasted on cancer sticks. I am quite passionate about the issue of smoking, but still, what is a ban gonna do? It should be the smokers choice that their health is more important than the cigarettes, not government.

I have found out that many people(mostly guys) download porn from cheap sites that give them a large file with several clips but the clips aren't revealed until downloaded. Now with some of these clips don't have ages attached as to how old the participant is. We found this out when a couple of my husbands porn was viewed and analyzed by a sharing group we were using stating they don't take any porn under 21 years of age. When I reviewed the porn clips some were indeed questionable and the ones under 21 were all erased. So if you download porn wouldn't having porn that is 21 and up in age be a good idea than to be considered a child porn watcher with questionable under 21 porn on you computer?

It seams our communities are overrun with corruption and total control by gangs and police figures. It really seams everything is being clamped down and freedom is gone! Does anyone else notice this? What do you think? Is it just because we're at war, or is this here to stay? Depressed in Kentucky.

America is not a free country anymore!! what can I (we) do to honestly get our freedom of choice back? There are to many of us smokers to just let people take our enjoyable vice away.

The legal and political answer is clear, but if there are any ethicists out there, I would enjoy an education on this. If an act is not universally virtuous, what determines when it is or is not?

The opinion below is NOT my own. It is repeated from a news broadcast. Please do not abuse me for asking the question, just discuss it.

Recently a senior UK Police Chief said that men who have sex with girls aged between 13 and 15 years should not be branded peadophiles as this age group is a "grey area" of female emotional and physical maturity.

Discuss.

Most of the co-workers , supervisor and boss for the company i work for dont like me. The place that i work for has alot of people that dont like my kind of race. I mean no problem with that you dont have to like my race if you dont want to. It is a free country. But everymorning I work from 5am-3:30pm on a normal day. First two hours are overtime. Sometimes I have stuff to do and a family to take care of at times. So I cant "always" stay after 3:30, they tell me if "I" dont work overtime. I will lose my job and dont have one. But alot of other co-workers dont work overtime either, they go home when their regular day is over. And they still have their job. I know they are just waiting to get rid of me. I mean I know that they dont like my race. But that isnt right for them to get rid of me because of it. But if they do fire me, it is a At Will State. They can fire you regardless. They can give you a reason or not. What is a way a can prove they fired me because of my race?

Both involve people being paid to have sex. One is considered a crime in most states, the other isn't. Why? If your ordinary street hooker (or the customer) carried a movie camera around with them and filmed what they did, would they be able to avoid prostitution charges, or what?

If I am reading it right it says, "Don't bear false witness on your neighbor." In other words, if I lie to my kids I am not lieing to jeopardize my neighbor in any way. I am simply upholding a harmless family tradtion of story telling at Christmas-time. So it would appear t me that the spirit in which you lie is more relevant than if you lie. As a matter of fact I wonder if lying or telling the truth is even the issue at all.
