Why should there be an apology for something that anyone that was either enslaved or enslaving is now deceased? Who will accept the apology? What good will it do? Should there then be reparations? Who will the money go to? Should the Jews then apologize for crucifying Jesus? Should Germany and the Germans apologize for The Holocaust? Shouldn't Africans apologize too? Would one be racist for not thinking that an apology is necessary? These are some of the questions that an associate of mine asked me when the topic arose as a result of VA apologizing, and other states began making considerations in following suit. He even said that all people are equal now, that colored people should just get over it because it happened so long ago, and that he personally had nothing to do with it. His ancestors, who were Welsh and Irish immigrates to the USA, also had nothing to do with it, and did not own slaves. All of these questions relate to the main question, and should also be answered.

....that murderers who place no value on the lives of others, place so much value on theirs, to the point that they will fight tooth and nail to overturn a death penalty and settle instead for life in prison..... is it because they have no conscience?

A pot of cream on a high shelf fell and spilled all over my coat and leather/fabric shoes. They now stink. The problem was initially dealt with by a helpful assistant manager. However the manager was dismissive and unhelpful. But he did say he would ring me and confirm Tesco would pay. I got no call. I wrote, they were arrogant in response but said I needed to show recepits for a repayment. People don't keep recepits for clothes when they are happy with them. My clothes are ruined. Tesco now will not reply to my letters. How can I get recompense.

Where can I find the legal definition of:
"m314.1 - Indecent Exposure" & "m647a - Annoy/Molest children?"
Someone charged with these offenses is employed to do work in my neighborhood and has been inside all of our homes. I'm worried for my neighborhood and the kids. Aren't people who get charged with these kinds of offenses not allowed to be around kids or enter kids homes??????? I don't know what to do, any advice on how to handle this?

We lived together for 5 years in Las Vegas, then got married on 12-31-06, and we're now divorcing. Will we split things we bought with our joint account before marriage? We bought nothing together during our marriage since it was so short. Does he only take what he brought into our residence since I bought almost everything myself (he got rid of all his stuff before we moved together)? (Not real estate, just furniture, car, etc). Or since we've been married for a few weeks, can he take half of everything?

Doesn't that make you the least bit suspicious? It raises all sorts of flags for me. How can it not bother you, he wants them to talk, in private, without the "aid" of a an oath to keep them honest...and no transcript, so we will never know what went down. A man with nothing to hide shouldn't be so worried about these things. And, don't tell me that he is taking a stand agains congressional "witch-hunting", b/c I didn't hear a fuss from Repubs. when Clinton was "hunted" for a scenario with far less national implications. So does this make you trust Bush less, more or the same?

Bush said his White House counsel, Fred Fielding, told lawmakers they could interview presidential counselor Karl Rove, former White House Counsel Harriet Miers and their deputies — but only on the president's terms: in private, "without the need for an oath" and without a transcript.

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid , a Nevada Democrat, denounced it as well, charging the administration has offered "a bunch of different stories" about why the prosecutors were fired last year.
"Congress and the American people deserve a straight answer," Reid said. "If Karl Rove plans to tell the truth, he has nothing to fear from being under oath like any other witness."

Recently I have been studying more about the american government. So now my question is : Is it treason to give up citizenship of one country to become citizen of another. Also if America is allowing residents of the U.S. to fight in the war while the residents still have their nationality of origin is it considered treason to their country of origin? Sounds like treason to me...especially in this war where thousands of non citizens of the U.S. whom are fighting in this war, so is it treason against their country of origin since they are fighting in our militia if their country of origin is agains the war?
