My boyfriend has 3 children from his previous marriage. In July 2006 his ex wife decided she was going to move away to PA from FL. She decided to leave their 12 yo daughter with us and took their 10 yo daughter and five yo son to PA with her. Lately his 10 yo daughter has been calling us on a daily basis begging to let her come and live with us. She will be coming down this summer to visit and we know she is going to refuse to go back to PA. There is no legal custody arrangement with any of the children. The 12 yo does not want to visit her mom because she is scared that she will not send her back. What should we do regarding the 10 yo? The girls will be 11 and 13 by the summer, should we contact an attorney and file for custody of the girls as one already lives with us and the other wants to? I believe that they are both old enough to decide who they want to be with. The oldest has no intentions of ever going back to her mom. I believe the girls should be together. ????

This weekend I got a seatbelt ticket for "improperly wearing" my seatbelt. I had it clicked in and had my left arm over the belt instead of over my shoulder like you're "supposed" to. I was aware it was recomended to wear it over your shoulder i just didnt't think it was illegal. What ever happened to warnings? Especially when it is a first time offence! Whats the difference, I mean older cars and school buses don't even have the shoulder belt. Anyone ever heard of a BS ticket like this? Anyway to fight it, because $247.00 is a little much for this ticket I think. I am in Canada

Our MP's are lawyers and they've all screwed us. Lord Goldsmith and Lord Faulkner are doing their damndist to legislate our rights and freedoms out of play.

They've stopped the kids playing, restricted free speech and want to intrude into every detail of our lives.

Is it time to refuse to obey their rules anymore and write a few of our own, such as No more Immigrants, get out of Europe, tell gays to back off, and ban the Moslem religion in Britain?

Texas legislator proposes $500 to stop abortions
- A Texas legislator has proposed that pregnant women considering abortion be offered $500 not to end their pregnancies.
Republican State Sen. Dan Patrick, who also is a conservative radio talk show host, said on Friday the money might convince the women to go ahead and have babies, then give them up for adoption.
He said during a legislative conference in New Braunfels, 45 miles south of Austin, there were 75,000 abortions in Texas last year.
"If this incentive would give pause and change the mind of 5 percent of those woman, that's 3,000 lives. That's almost as many people as we've lost in Iraq," Patrick said.
Patrick has filed legislation to make the payment state law, but the legislature has not yet voted on it.
His proposal calls for giving any woman going to an abortion clinic the $500 option, to be paid no more than 30 days after the baby is born and given up for adoption.
Critics say the proposal would violate Texas and

The supposed victim, Jimmy Dewayne Johnson, attempted to take my life with a bat in my own home. Autopsy reports indicated a high alchol level in his blood. I am fully disabled and a veteran. The state of Arkansas convicted me of voluntary manslaughter and sentenced me to 10 years of a maximum security prison. I am awaiting an appeal decision and then a bed. It has been over a year since my conviction. I dont feel that my case was properly representated by my court appointed defense. The 'victum' has a long violent criminal past. I have been a productive member of the community for many years. My disability is derrived from a degenerative nerve disease from previous injuries. I had my wife immediately call 911 after i fatatily wounded Jimmy Johnson with a butcher knife to the abdomen. When a policeman kills a suspect, they are judged on the basis that they have been properly trained. It is not fair to put the same guidelines on an untrained civilian, but that is the current law.

At our town's annual Scottish fair, Roddy, the head of the town's Scottish chapter puts on a 2 hour interview segment with various guests. There is a good 200 people that love watching these interviews. He invited one of the fair's ground crew on the interview platform, Jimmy, a man of Fiji decent.

Roddy started insulting Jimmy's Polynesian heritage by bringing out pineapples, bananas, and dropping coconuts onto the table, to make Jimmy "feel at home". Jimmy took offense to this and Roddy then attacked Jimmy by smashing him over the head with a coconut and shoving a banana in his face. He followed this up by whipping Jimmy with his belt. Jimmy was knocked woozy which allowed Roddy to leave before Jimmy, now dazed, could fight back.

Nobody will come forward to tell police what happened. Roddy is my friend and I'm worried he may be charged. I'm interested to know, what could he be charged with? He only hit him with fruit and just a little with the belt.

I explain that it is a battery fault as keeps cutting out. They said they would replace battery which never happened. They said it back after 8days. And I experience same problems and I need the phone for business calls sometimes. How can I get out of the contract as I having some much trouble with the phone ?

I've always wondered that. I mean I guess someone could say that the test was false but they could also have evidence to back up the guilty verdict.

An attempt to break into my home last night has outraged me as to how the law works. Someone climbed over the back fence to steal my sons motorcycle but failed to lift it over the fence due to its weight, also the attempt to take the 3 pedal bikes but without avail, once again due to the height of the fence. What im angry over is we have 2 Rottweiler dogs who are trained as responsible owners to be sociable in public and towards other persons, agressive they are not. Once we called the police first thing this morning we were informed that a police officer was coming to my home as there had been a complaint minutes prior to my call by the person involved trying to steal our belongings because our dogs had chased them up the garden and showed aggresive behaviour??? As we can do the same for them tresspassing and attempted theift. Can someone please tell me how on earth I can get into trouble when I have done nothing wrong and my dogs done what dogs do! Protect their property???

My Ex is telling people that she is sending my emails to Yahoo abuse because she has told me over and over not to email her. I haven't emailed her in a while and when I did, it wasn't harrassing emails or threatening emails. If she had forwarded my emails to Yahoo abuse, wouldn't yahoo or whomever she sent them to write me to tell me not to contact her anymore? Has anyone else had this similar situation? She's also telling people that she has contacted the police and the FBI about me and that she has had to put a tap on her phone because whatever calls she's getting she claims it's me. I haven't called the woman in over 4 months. Wouldn't someone have contacted ME by now if she did this? She's telling friends and people I'm stalking her. How can I stop this? This is my name she's pulling through the mud. Why is she doing this?

Alcohol is legal
Cigarettes are legal
Marijuana is illegal

That just doesn't make sense to me. Out of all three of those, marijuana does the least damage to your body, doesn't impare driving at all really and when was the last time you saw a bunch of people in a room getting high break out in violence?

I just think that unless the other two become illegal, it shouldn't be.

Also I don't smoke, drink or get high.

In California a woman was beat up and her child abducted from her own home. Because it was the father and he left no markable evidence on her body (shoved and backhanded her), the police did nothing. There was no custody order on file. The man is a previous abuser with a record of serving in jail for abuse.

He took the child and hid out, filed papers behind her back with a different case number after she filed a petition for emergency custody of the child. He never served her and won a default custody case, while there was another case pending in mediation.

He then frauded over the womans bank accounts and credit until she needed a new social security number, and violated restraining orders but never charged. He is now concealing the child in an abusive enviorment and is trying to obtian child support while threatening her life making her flee across the country for her own safety.

Should she have to give this man child support, and is there anything she can do. He's in CA - She NY
