Let me clarify..If I choose to drink in excess daily, is it not my liver, my heart, my body, my money that purchases it. If the country thinks it is ok for women to kill their own babies through abortion, than why can't I choose to smoke? or drink alcolhol? or eat Big Mac's? or not exercise? Why do we need the government tell us this is bad for us when we already know this? I am an adult capable of making decisions for myself. It is freedom of choice, freedom of speech, free enterprise, and so on. Why do you want to give up your freedom to the government?

Paparazzi take pictures that I would assume are without the subject's approval. Private Investigators can also do the same when they are tracking a subject. I understand that taking it on private property is probably more of an issue, but if someone is out in the open on public land, is it legal or can you get into a world of trouble? Please provide sources/examples for answers, not just speculations.

I bought a car for 3500 dollars. Its a 97 with 78000 miles. The other day, a lady rammed right into me. I sent the claim to my insurance company and they are only going to give me 1500 dollars (what they say my car is worth). I dont want a different car. I love my car... The cost to fix it is 1800 dollars. Can I sue the lady who hit me to pay the other 300 to get my car fixed or no? I just dont feel like I should have to fork out any ammount of money when it was due to her negligence. I have a police report claiming that it was her fault. I just dont know...

What about all of those people who serve like 20 years because the DA and crime labs falsified evidence. At least one of those people get out of jail every week. I would be pissed if I was those guys but that DA is a school boy compared to some of those crooked DA's who knowingly convict innocent people. Some of them received life sentience and even the death penalty.

How much will it cost me to get legal help & court procedings to establish more contact with my daughter. At the moment I have her alternate weekends from Friday at 6pm through to Sunday at 10am but in reality it's only the Saturday that we get chance to do anything as Friday she has tea then bed & Sundays after bath & breakfast it time to go home, I'd like to extend this to 6pm on Sunday. At the moment my ex partner will not let me have her to celebrate birthdays or special days even when they fall on my weekend. I'm not allowed to have her any extra time but have to give up my days if ex has a family event she wants to attend. I love my daughter very much & although only two she very clearly enjoys being with me. I want to ramain part of her life but it is heartbreaking that my ex can change the goalposts with no consideration of our precious time together. I'm excluded from Christmas, Easter & all holiday periods. I was present when she was registered. Where do I stand? Please help!

Neurology and genetics are suggesting that many behaviors are biologically determined ("nature"), even more than the "nurture" of training and experience. The trend is for more and more behaviors to be determined by genetics.

What is being taught about this topic in law schools in the US?

I was starting to fill out the Mass form to get health insurance (unemployed, looking for work) which is a law now. I saw that it said that if you are awarded money because of accident the state can take some of it. And if you are 55 or older and die the state can get money from your estate. Why? This doesn't happen with regular insurance or welfare, does it? I'm not 55 yet, but still...I don't understand why the state is making me pay for something that will benefit it. Also you have to notify within 10 days after your income changes. What if I get a job with the temp agency and then it ends and something else comes up? I can't find this info online anywhere, so if anyone else in Mass has any answers, I'd be grateful.

the RIAA is trying to shut down internet radio. They want to increase royalty fees by ridiculous proportions, forcing all small- and mid- size internet radio companies into bankruptcy. We need to fight this. We can't let lobbyists in Washington ruin the innovation and creativity that internet radio sites like Pandora.com (which, by the way, I highly recommend) have brought to radio. Please go to www.savenetradio.org to understand a bit more. Please, please help with this. I think that many of you will agree that internet radio deserves a future brighter than that if regular broadcast radio, which is totally saturated with commercials, plays only the mainstream artists and genres, and has no flexibility at all in what programming they offer. Again, I can't stress this enough. If WE don't fight the moneymongers throwing their weight around in Washington, we'll end up with another watered-down, non-creative, factory-produced part of the entertainment industry. Nobody wants that.

I don't mean going through the courts and legally changing your name. I mean, like a gangsta or someone who's on the lamb, so to speak. If a person was to simply move to a different place where no one knows you, you can obviously use any name you want. But if you really want to establish a whole new life and get a different job, you'd need a drivers liscense, social security card, birth certificate, just for starters. So, seriously, how does a person change their persona????

i went to byerly's grocery (liquor store department) in eagan, mn and looked over my receipt, which included my full birth date along with the last four digits of my credit card number. Isn't printing my birth date on a credit card or cash purchase an invasion of my privacy? What would justify this? someone told me to post this under Law & Ethics.
