Do you think forcing a sex offender to put a sign on his lawn or being forced to put a neon license plate on his car indicating he is a sex offender is added punishment?

I think that most of the lawsuits that are being filed are crazy. Does anyone agree? I think that there are a few situations that it is warranted, but do you agree that our nation has gone lawsuit crazy?

Let's say that a tenant, and a landlord agree to the amount of rent payment. They then sign the 1 yr contract. However, the landlord wants to change the amount on the rent, wanting to increase it. Can the landlord change the terms of the contract, before the 1yr is up? Any sort of help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

The words illegal immigrants define people who are officially in this Country without legitimate authorization and who have crossed over our boundaries of criminology. In the same light undocumented reference is intended to reflect the chaos and confusion associated with such criminology. Thus, the line between legal and illegal is thin and squiggly, and at best any idea of officially incorporating the two circumstances into a roadmap to U.S. citizenship is the equivalent of the Government officially granting a form of amnesty to criminals, which may open a can of worms that could completely infect our current criminal justice system with dire consequences of irreversible imperfection. From that point on how can there ever be a set standard by which to determine any legality, in a situation that began illegally?

Just as legalizing smoking pretty much destroyed America's health system, legalizing illegal immigrants may overwhelm the already stretched to the limit criminal justice system with civil and felony crimes, motor vehicle offenses and domestic disputes. At the time no one anticipated the extremely adverse effect smoking would have on America's healthcare over the years. Current statistics show that more than one hundred thousand people die each year from second hand cigarette smoke. And another one hundred thousand suffer from smoking related diseases at a staggering healthcare expense on the economy.

Smokers addicted to nicotine are hardcore liars who will do just about anything to continue their smoking habit; including outright pretending they don't know that their second hand smoke effects everyone around them from anywhere between fifteen and twenty-five cubic feet of air space. They have no consideration for their own children let alone other people's children or their supposed loved pets. In essence smokers are worse than illegal drug users. Unlike smokers, at least illegal substance abusers go off into their own little world and pollute themselves. In addition, smoking is the common link to most people going on to illegal drug abuse.

Using smoking as an example in which many people experiment with harsher drugs, it would only be a matter of time before amnesty granted illegal immigrants tire of doing the job Americans supposedly don't want to do, and begin competing with Americans for higher paying more prestigious jobs. As well, using smoking as a learning experience, it is inevitable that amnesty granted illegal immigrants will have a devastating effect on America's economy costing far more than their worth when it comes to healthcare, education, social services, pregnancies, housing and unforeseen mishaps.

One unforeseen mishap is that it would only be a matter of time before hardcore criminals behind bars begin using illegal immigrant amnesty laws to challenge the criminal justice system keeping them behind bars. After all, how can the law grant amnesty for whatever reason to people who are not even citizens of this country without granting some sort of amnesty to its own criminals who are behind bars for illegality? In my opinion immigration is not the answer to America's work force problem. Instead, why not kill two birds with one stone: Alleviate the overcrowding costs of America's prisons, by developing and supervising sentence reduction and early release work incentive programs for non-violent prisoners in exchange for them doing the jobs Americans supposedly don't want to do as opposed to amnesty immigration?

I work as a temporary bail bond agent in the state of Florida. In order to become permanent agent I have to go through 1 year apprenticeship under a bail agent. My boss is going to have me sign a non-compete form in order to prevent me from quitting after my year is up and opening my own business.
I want to know, can this form really prevent me from quitting after I get my license and opening my own business in the same county? Or is this form really just meant to erase the thought about me opening my own business. I have worked for 2 other bondsman, so he wouldnt have taught me everything about the business. Also, how long are they effective, if it can be used against me.

took my '06 chevy for a brake problem. After my car sits for several hours, then you start the car and put it in drive, the brakes won't work! Feels like you turned the engine off and trying to stop! Also, the whole car shakes when applying the brakes at highway speeds. I take it in to the chevy dealership and they take my car for two days and then call me up and tell me it's done. I go to pick it up and I see the service report saying they didn't do NOTHING. "Everything normal at this time" is what they wrote! I"M MAD NOW! I went to another chevy dealer and they found some kind of a brake booster vaccuum leak or something like that and the rear drums needed to be re-surfaced. My problem was solved now but I want to get the other dealership back for not fixing the car like they were supposed to! Their service manager never called me back to discuss! I hate chevy dealers...bunch of fat azzes sitting on their chairs doing absolutely nothing but keeping their chair warm And Who is fixing the cars? Some school yard boy or a fat azz santa clause who looks at the car for two days then rights “normal”

A friend of mine was pulled over a few weeks ago for suspected DUI. He was taken back to the police station where no sobriety test or even breathalyser was given until several HOURS after he had been brought back to the station.

Now correct me if I am wrong, Alcohol intensifies with elapsed time, and seeing as he very well could have blown a small amount over the limit at the time he got pulled over those several hours could have made it look like he was totally intoxicated.

He is not denying what he did was wrong and will take full responsibility for his actions, but doesn't want to have to take the punishment for a reading that could be inaccurate.

He has an attourney but wants to make sure that this is worth the fight before doing it.

So is it true that the longer that alcohol sits in your system the higher the blood alcohol level will be?
