There's this elderly man who comes in the store and for the second time this week he crapped all over himself. It was disgusting, it was all over the bathroom floor, his clothes, even in his shoes. I was told by someone in my dept. that this guy might have does this before, making it a total of 3 times. I think he does it for the attention. I don't think it's fair for my Housekeeping staff to help someone clean up thier filth. Is it legal to ban him from the store and is it fair to do this to a person with this type of problem?

if i ask a question on sterilization, why would anyone think that i'm talking about abortion. that's ridiculous.

it's a very simple solution to the "growing" problem. anyone with a criminal history, sterilize them. sterilize the poor too, since they can't afford their children. and if there is still a population growth problem, sterilize the middle and upper class randomly.

What is the legality of downloading TV shows (which are not sold as individual shows such as Sky One's Brainiac) for showing in an educational environment (such as a secondary school) in the UK? Please cite specific law/acts/cases wherever possible.

I know that it has some relevance to a European act passed in 2001 but I don't know what the act was. Is it not similar to VHSing programs from the TV and showing them?

My husband's ex bring him to court demanding maintenance payments. Therefore we had to have a solicitor and fill an E form. Therefore our solicitor's bill is around £20,000 and the ex's less than £5,000 pounds (She also wants us to pay her bill). We don't understand why the bill ends up such figure, which is all our savings. We made an enquiry about the bill and were told by the solicitor if we don't pay the all amounts (already paid £7500 update) they would not do anything for us. The final court hearing is next month, we really don't want go to the court because the solicitor fee. What will happen if we don't go and just waiting for the court results? Can the solicitors do that to us?

My ex-wife dotted my son's eye. When he got to school they sent the CPS to investigate me. Took me to the jailhouse to question me and all. When they couldn't convince the boy to say it was me they went and asked her. Her alibi was, "He fell into the corner of the couch." So the police dropped the investigation immediately.
What should be done about this? I have asked them repeatedly over the years to investigate repeated instances of abuse and they usually try to flip it over on me. Now if I don't report the incident I am viewed as an accomplice. Is there any proper course of action in all this?

My 12 y/o Daughter was called into the office by the School Principal. He said that he had heard that her mother had hit her. He then continued questioning her for another 45 minutes. Then had her sign a statement.

Is that legal?

Her mother and I are going through a divorce. The mother has in fact stuck her and that's part of the reason we're divorcing.

Aren't they supposed to notify somebody prior to or at least after questioning?

When I hear the term Political Correctness I usually think Liberal, but that is not always the case. There are many people out there who's political devotion varies from Republican to Democrat and inbetweens. What bothers me is how a lot of these people are such crybabies. If an entretainer makes a racial or ethnic joke, why can't people just laugh and let it go, it is a joke. Why do some people feel that they are being racist when they do so. Now I do notice that when lets say a Hispanic comedian makes a Chinese joke, people complain, but when a Chinese comedian does the same joke, it's fine. It should not be selective, if one goes down so should the other, or better yet, let it go. I'm too tired of everyone complaining and trying to censor everything this side of the Atlantic.

I work in my town's public library and had been earning 5 dollars and change per hour until I brought to my supervisor's attention a while back that the new minimum wage - at that time - was $6.15. Fine. They gave me the raise.

Now the NEW minimum wage is $7.15, effective October 1, 2006, I mentioned it to my supervisor yesterday and now, all of a sudden, she says, "these laws don't apply to public libraries."

Is this true? I think she's coming up with excuses because then she said the library just didn't have the budget to pay everyone minimum wage, so I think she's just reaching for straws.

I'd love to hear from those familiar with labor laws, esp in NJ. Thanks!

People are realizing that Al-Qaeda/Osama bin Laden are not to blame for the U.S. attacks that occurred of 9/11/01 but instead our own U.S. government is to blame. Yes, that's right, OUR OWN U.S. government. So what happens now? How do we punish our own corrupted goverment? And when are the U.S. citizens gonna stop giving middle easterns crap about terrorism when in fact WE the U.S. government is the REAL TERRORIST. It's time to stand up for our rights and our security, apologize to Mr. Osama bin Laden, and give justice to the innocent lives taken on 9/11.

With our lust for war, violence, greed, overpopulation, overconsumption (drugs, food, RESOURCES, etc.) we will not be able to maintain life as we now know it. We seem "hardwired" towards very dangerous habits and decisions. Could we genetically alter future people to be more passive and less self-serving? I think it's the only way we won't destroy ourselves and this planet. Discuss....

Does the team of Knowledgeables think that re-introducing
Nat; service for all youths & girls, either to service life or
hospital service would reduce the crime rate for this age group
and instill a sense of responsibility ?
Does the team also think that all immigrants to this most
welcoming of countries should contribute in like manner, to show
that they accept it as their true home, and would be prepared to
fight for it, should the need arise, Should another hitler
come calling ??
