Im not a Liberal. I Voted for the man twice. I feel like he is undermining this country however with his ideas on joining Mexico and Canada into one Country. He does nothing to stop the illegal invasion of our country, he just dosent seem to show the leadership he once had. He is mush in the hands of Mexicos governement. What do you think? What can we do?

i do not want to sue for money, but i need to stand up for my child when i see his rights are being violated. i just want equal treatment.
this is about zero tolerance policy, which means that any party involved in anything intolerable will be suspended, whether or not, they started it. my son didn't start this, but he has been suspended for sexual harassment while the other child went scot free, no consequences at all. you can learn more about the situation in my last two questions. Ive been looking for answers.
Not only has my son not had a voice whatsoever in this case, but neither have I myself. my son is 13, and the boys had been calling eachother gay, with the other child continuosly instigating my child. the other child told his parents, and they complained. Also a girl had been kicking my child, and nothing happened to her either. This is not zero tolerance. sexual harasment is not something to take lightly on my sons record.

Okay read my previous question about the small claims to be updated...

so basically this couple moved into the apartment but they did not remove the name of the person they took the lease over from from the water bill. So they told us when we were going to move in and take over his lease, that they dont get any bills. the bill was under the other guy's name so thats why they didnt get it and (i think the leasing people said, it is your responsibility to have the names changed) so I got this bill 2 months after move in and the couple's move out, to pay a 8 month long bill, in which we only lived for 2 months. They would owe us the 6 months but would it be a problem in court if the bill was under the very first guy's name? Does it matter who's name it was as long as the bill was for that apartment? (the leasing people said it doesnt matter cuz its still our apartment). will this be a problem in our case in small claims court?

After a chocking incident ending with death of drunk customer at a restaurant the the attorney claims that the restaurant did not exercise reasonable care to save the customer.It is claimed that not only the manager have used the "Heimlich" maneuver on the customer, but the restaurant's staff knew that the customer had ordered chicken so the manager should have looked into the decedent's mouth to make sure throat was lodged in his throat. Plus consider managers attempt to save the victim during the incident while the doctor continued eating his food unconcerned by the health of his patient.

OK- So I gave a cell phone to a friend that was moving to Vegas. (My contract was up, she needed a cell phone, she just had to call and put the phone in her name) Long story short, I ended up cancelling the phone when I got 2 $500 phone bills 2 months in a row. She says she'll pay me back, but who knows. Now, I live in Hawaii, she lives in Las Vegas. What is the process to try to file small claims? Can I do it from Hawaii? Do I actually have to go to court? Can I try to fight this without actually going to Nevada for anything? Total she owes me is about $700. Is it even worth it to try and fight it? Also, I had to put her as an authorized user on my account so she could get the phone in her name. She called, upgraded her contract, wasn't on time with the bill once, but since she was on there and my names the primary person on the bill, I basically got screwed. Is this what I get for trying to be a nice guy?

This law will give only the wealthy who have inherited wealth and bought a home the right to a kind of exemption under the law.Is it fair to make a law that a segment of the population will have more freedom than those of less income? Is this equal rights?

So CNN comes out and says Khalid Shayke Mohammed the "mastermind of 9/11" confesses to crimes he commited. CNN even said that they "interrogated" him by using a method that makes a person feel as if they are drowning. How can you believe he did it, when anyone in his case who is mistreated would confess to anything.

A customer dies at a restaurant while eating even though the help arrives. Later on the owner figures out that there was a doctor in the restaurant during the incident and did nothing to help out. When he was questioned by the police as to why he did not assist to the chocking victim, the doctor stated that he was eating dinner as well and was tired after playing a full day of golf in the sun.
