If a person charged with a crime claims they did not commit the crime with their knowledge or with any intention would this person most likely be found innocent of the crime? There is also no hard evidence or reason as to why this person committed the crime only the assumption that they did.

Why can't helicopters be equiped with "guns" to cover a vehicle with paint? Seems to me it make it unecessary for CHP's to chase them creating a risky situation for innocent drivers.

a brizlian guy came today to the bank i work in.he asked to check out all his money because hes leaving for good. his money was 200,000 but the cashier put 400,000 on his account by accident. so the co workers didnt want the brizlian guy to notice. so they quitely went upstairs to change what the cashier did. However, i tried to tell the guy that he has the right NOW to leave with 400,000 screw the bank its their fault the guy didnt speak English nor Arabic. he couldnt understand me
so i pulled out a paper. where my bank account number in it, asking the bank to transfer a 100,000 from his account to mine. ( i told him that he wan a 100,000 but he needs to sign the paper) it wouldve been 300,000 on his account and a 100,000 on mine. Sadly he didnt understand a thing about what i was saying. and the co workers hanlded it quickly.

oh btw. that could have been the fastest rob in all bank's histories cause that was my second day there LOL
i;could have left today with 100,000$(legaly

For example, a company wants your business to buy their product...lotions, hair products so they send some free stuff (real size, not samples) only they send a lot. Your boss says she can't keep it all and she's gonna throw it away. What? I'll take it, but I can't use it all. Can I sell it?

Does anyone think American's can come together to help the healthcare crisis in this country. I just don't think it's ok for people to have to suffer and die just because they can't get approved. My mom is a nurse and she works at a jail where prisoners have better healthcare than hard workers. If they need their diabetic shots my mother gives it to them, if they need their inhalers, they get them. Does anyone find something wrong with this? Criminals of the law would get better treatment and health care than upstanding citizens, should it not be this way for everyone? Or better yet, what ideas or what can be done to improve this situation, and don't say nothing because something can always be done it just takes someone who's willing to go the extra mile and fight for it over and over. It takes a relentless person. Any thoughts?

Question 1:

If you knew a woman who was pregnant, who already had 8 kids , 3 who were deaf, 2 who were blind, 1 mentally retarded, and she had syphilis, would you recommend that she have an abortion?




Read the next question before looking at the response for this one.


Question 2:
It is time to elect a new world leader, and only your vote counts.
Here are the facts about the three candidates. Who would you vote for?

Candidate A.

Associates with crooked politicians, and consults with astrologist.
He's had two mistresses. He also chain smokes and drinks 8 to 10 martinis a day.



Candidate B.

He was kicked out of office twice, sleeps until noon, used opium in
college and drinks a quart of whiskey every evening.



Candidate C

He is a decorated war hero. He's a vegetarian, doesn't smoke, drinks an occasional beer and never cheated on his wife.





Which of these candidates would be our choice?



Candidate A is Franklin D. Roosevelt.
Candidate B is Winston Churchill.
Candidate C is Adolph Hitler.




And, by the way, on your answer to the abortion question:

If you said YES, you just killed Beethoven.


Pretty interesting isn't it? Makes a person think before judging someone.


Never be afraid to try something new. Remember:

Amateurs...built the ark.

Professionals...built the Titanic




And Finally, can you imagine working for a company that has a little more than 500 employees and has the following statistics:



* 3 have done time for assault
* 7 have been arrested for fraud
* 8 have been arrested for shoplifting
* 14 have been arrested on drug-related charges
* 19 have been accused of writing bad checks
* 21 are currently defendants in lawsuits
* 29 have been accused of spousal abuse
* 71 cannot get a credit card due to bad credit
* 84 have been arrested for drunk driving in the last year
* 117 have directly or indirectly bankrupted at least 2 businesses





Can you guess which organization this is?


It's the 535 members of the United States Congress.

The same group that crank out hundreds of new laws each year designed to keep the rest of us in line.

Make a law to stop people parking their cars on the road, if they have enough space to park it in their garden. Of course grants would be available, to allow dropping of kerbs etc, if people couldnt afford it. (yes I know, in my dreams. lol) What law would you bring in if you were Prime minister or political person with the same powers as prime minister, for a week? It can be as sensible or whacky as you like.

I was arrested last year in July, 2006 (bum rap) by the local police. When I appeared at court, the case was not called. My lawyer approached the bench and the Judge said there was no record or case number. The court clerk said they had nothing either. My lawyer told me that no charges had been filed, so It never went to court. I later received a letter in the mail (from my lawyer to the prosecuting attorneys office) stating that he is representing me and to contact him also if any further action will be taken. My lawyer stated again that this case was not pursued. That was last August, 2006. Will this show up on a criminal background check? I have heard conflicting stories that since it never went to court, that it will not show up. Thanks in advance for any replies
