I have been shocked at the rate of arrests in America, for crimes against Children. While being shocked I examine Legal Text, and found unbelievable cases, for convictions. (1) someone Waves at a Child and now has to register for life as a Sex Offender, Why ? (2) Someone touched the hair of a Child, ( patting a Kid on the Head is a Crime) and is now a Registered Sex Offender. Behavior which would normally be deemed as innocent is being interpretted and rationalized as criminal, Why ? I see and have had Sexual Abuse done to Me as a Child and it was a Woman, a Family Member, but when We as American's rationalize, and scrutinize only one Group (Men) it is infact practicing "Discrimination", Why ? Men, may in all reality be the vicious creatures this one Group, of Persecutor's wish to portray us, but why, ?. are the officials not allowing us all to "Know", and "Understand" what is to be accepted, and what will not.

Me and my friend made a bet and drew up a rough contract, my friend bet that if he could crack my ebay account password and if he did i would have to buy him an HDMI cable for his new PS3 which he hadent yet purchased and if he cant crack it by they time he buys a PS3 i get a Component Video cable for my yet unpurchased Wii. No here is the problem, in the contract it says that: David must crack password by the time he buys a PS3. He got the PS3 today but gave the money to his sister who made the actuall purchase, he now cliams that the bet is still on and he owes me nothing because he did not purchase a PS3 his sister did he just recived it from her even though it was his money. What do you think? Did he still "buy" a PS3? Do I win? If a lawyer could give their insight it would be really helpful.

I was hit by a driver in the Republic of Ireland while driving a rental. I was told I would not incur any fees when I returned the car. But over a year later I had my credit card charged. I have disputed the charges but does the car company have the ability to sue me for the damages?

There's a chiropractor in waterloo, WI. He acts like he is a God and can prevent women from getting breast cancer. He has no stats to prove his claim. Of course not, he is a fraud if making such a statement. He also enjoys talking about how he has cured this patient and that patient from this disease and that disease to his other patients. He also talks about the problems he is having with his dad, mom, brother and sister. As patients, we dont need to hear about his personal life, but he blurts it out anyway. he just starts talking about other patients and about the faults of his family members and how he accusses his family of doing things all the time. He told us how he confronted his mom and dad about things that happened years ago and put all the blame on them. If you ask me, this doctor has a psychological problem. If this doctor is telling me bad things about his family and his other patients, I can only imagine what he is saying about me to his other patients.

I recently purchased something that I found out on a few blogs will turn into a solicitation nightmare. From what tons of people are saying online, this company is going to start to stalk the hell outta me here real soon, and be cocky, rude and disregard all requests to not be called back. This is what I am thinking about doing, do you think it would work? #1 - get a recording device from my sister for the phone & hook it up. #2 - when someone calls asking for me (w/ my proper name) and obviously not a friend/family calling, I will tell them "hold on" and go turn on the recorder and then get back on the phone and verify it is me and then say "this call may be monitored or recorded" all the while it is recording and if they continue the call then they have been warned. Then I will say, "put me on the National Do Not Call Registry, thank you, good bye." #3 - when they call back (and they will) I will repeat step 2 everytime. I'll have proof then :o) Will this work in court?

After all, land is a finite resource. We do not have the ability to create more of it like we do with cars, TVs, computers, clothes, food, etc. What if someone (like Bill Gates) were to buy all land that freeways were on and charged everyone to use it? What if on my street, my neighbor bought the land that the connecting road sits on and charges the rest of us to use it?

ok here is the deal I was laid off from my current job and I am trying to get unemployment compensation. In the past I have worked for temp services and after 3 months if i was not hired I found a new job cause I really needed the insurance benefits. now two of the temp services have told them I was terminated. I was never terminated. and they will not compensate me. Is there a law against witholding a persons pay because the employer is being dishonest? opinions or advice greatly appreciated. I mean should I try to put a lawsuit on it or what???

whay not let people choose what school their children go to rich or poor? if a child of a poor family is stuck in a school that is not teaching them then why not give the federal money to the parent and let them choose another school?and dont give that crap about they might put their kids in a chritsian school, so what? that is not an endorsment of religion by the goverment. rich people do it all the time, but with their own money. is this not the land of the free? why do we allow teachers unions to hold our kids hostage. have you seen john stossle report "stupid in america" if not here is the link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pfRUMmTs0ZA

This girl or woman wanted to know why Bush has not been hung. I wrote that she was probably violating the law by suggestion that Bush be killed. Guess what yahoos? I got a violation notice for offending someone. I do not know who is running this site, but my guess is # 1, They are not that smart, and #2., they are unaware of laws and what they are doing. Anyone else have a similar situation?

I am taking action against a company that has ripped me off (fact, I have the proof, afidavits etc).

I want to tell the local paper about it and warn others about the same thing potentially happening to them.

They have filed a defence, which frankly doesn't stack up and we are waiting for a date for the hearing.

Can I tell the local press about the legal action?

Without prejudicing any legal proceedings, of course.

We have a new policy in place as of 01/01/07 within our office, that requires a medical diagnosis from the Doctor whenever we take time off (paid sick-time) from work for a Medical Appointment. We are already required a medical excuse after three absences in one year for illness, family illness, etc.. But now, as I understand it, they want a medical diagnosis from the Doctor on that excuse. I guess if you are ill, (cold, flu, etc.), I might agree with this, (since we do have those usual office sick-time abusers, as everyone does!!), but I wonder if it is legal when you only leave work for a short time for a routine medical exam? Someone might be being treated for a medical condition that they wish to remain confidential, but that may require regular monitoring by their physician. It is causing quite a "stir" within our office! As I understand it, this is NOT a violation of the HIPPA Act, since that only covers health care providers, insurance, etc.. Any info, anyone? Is this legal?

It's not a personal email, and it isn't to someone I know very well. I was asking an author a question about their work, and they responded to me. However, I have now learned that the author has included the email I sent her in her new book. I'm not just interested in the money, I'm more interested in making a point - she has used 1000s of emails people have sent her to make up this book. Is there any way I could make a claim on the royalties, or we could all group together and do that?
