They had a questionaire on it that tests your personality. When it came to the part that asks, "Have you ever done drugs?" he said, "Yes"...........because in the past he has, but since he's grown, he faded away from that lifestyle. He later called back about the position, but Michael's told him that they could not hire him because he liked to "experiment with drugs". All this said and done based on the questionaire, no drug tests, and no other questions on how long ago since he used. They told him he could come back in 90 days and fill it out again, but if he does it the same way, he won't be hired. If he lies, they'd know. Is this right how the company handled it? Are they lazy? Or is this normal?

I have lived at my current residence since July and when I went outside found a court summons stuck to my front door from sometime earlier today. It lists two people I do not know and my address. It is a small claims case for the parents of a local student refusing to pay for school related fees. I think they might be using my address for there child to go to school. How should I handle the situation? Should I contact the school board? What to do with the court summons?

I thought that while driving, the computer and dash-cam are supposed to be "unchangeable", as in, always on - since they are responsible for all activities while driving the vehicle.
However, recently I heard that they can be turned off by the driver/officer...

I am married, I had 2 kids by a previous relationship. He cant seem to let go. I gave him a chance I told him either he get a job or dont come back. He chose not to come back, but make my life hell. This asshole does nothing for the kids in about 5 years he has paid 1 year of support. He has told my 8 year old now to set us on fire, and he has tried several times. The last time was when he was 5. He is always calling the police and telling them that he wants them to come over and check on the kids because I am doing something to them. And calling children services on me for no reason.The thing is is this is aloud by the law. Because everytime someone calls they have to check it out. He also has filled custody suits about 5 times. This is harrassment . I have called lawyers and the police to ask why do I have to just sit and take this. I get no justice. my husband blames me. I havent done enough to stop this ,then we argue. what can I do to make this stop.

So, I posted this question last night, and the Yahoo Nazis took it down for some reason unbeknownst to me (especially since the story was on Yahoo news). Three black dudes break and enter a white family's home, beat their kid into permanent brain damage with a baseball bat. The home owner shoots two of the three perps dead, and the third lives. Now the "black community" is up in arms because they are charging the surviving perp with the murder of his loser cohorts. They claim racism is the motivation to charge the lucky bastard that didn't get a well-deserved slug in his head. He was in on the plan, knew he was a criminal, and perpetuated the justifiable shootings of his accomplices. Is he responsible for their deaths? I say yes. Either way, the other two got what they deserved...so he should be counting his lucky stars, if all he has to do is take broom handle molesting a few times.

I don't. I used to. But after my brother got put on there it cause me to investigate and when I did I found out so much that I never knew before. For one, it is NOT a deterrant. Thats been proven. Yes, it keeps them from doing it again. But for the most part, fear of receiving the death penalty doesn't keep someone from committing the crime. FOr two its VERY expensive. And for three, what gives us the right to take someones life? If someone robs someone, the judge doesn't sentence them to be robbed. If someone burns a house down, the judge can't sentence them to having their own house burnt down. So why is murder that way? Oh well, thats just my opinion. I asked a question and then answered it just in case anyone cared about my personal stance. How bout yall? DO you support it? Why or why not?

Should we use the death penalty for rapist and child molesters not just for killers? I think so.

Looking at vehicles for sale on craigslist I came across some scam ads which directed me to an escrow site that's obviously fraudulent. (www[dot]car-expert-sell[dot]com
Is there any way to report such sites/frauds to authorities?

am curioius to know if u were an homcide detective how do u guys solve a murder? Especially in talking to a victim's family, friends, work associates, and establishing a timeline in regards to the victim's last movements. Who did the victim last have contact with? What are the victim's habits, routines? What might we find out by checking incoming and outgoing calls on the victim's cell phone, home phone, computer? Is the victim a high risk or low risk victim?Can someone explain to me the importance of keeping an open mind and considering everyone a possible suspect?

Is it to prove that you can't lie to the Feds? I don't think so. I think it is a HUGE waste of money and resources. Like the war.

It seems that childrens' education, health and future is always being passed over. Why?????/

Anyway, for you baseball fans who hate Barry, do you think he was the only one or that Bud Selig didn't have an inkling? Is he that dumb?

If Barry goes down, many more will follow. AS WILL BASEBALL! Is it worth it to you to expose him at the cost of the "National Pastime"?

Is it not the case that cars not only pollute the inner city, but also make it less people friendly? My mother wouldn't be so afraid in the evenings if other residents walked into town. Invalid pedestrians would have to be considered though.

BTW...this isn't for me. If 2 parents are divorced and the mother has sole custody, but the dad has always paid child support, can the mom legally change the last names of the children without the father's consent?
I'm not sure if this makes a difference but the mother and children live in Pa.

I have a 4 and 3 year old who have only seen their real father 3 or 4 times. He's been in and out of jail the past 4 years and just got out of prison yesterday. I'm not sure what he was in for except it was a Class D felony. I really want to have his rights terminated. He's not on the birth certificate of either child and never sees or asks to see them. He is now living in a homeless shelter. What are my chances of actually getting his right terminated and until then, does he really have any rights since he's not on the birth certificates? Any help would be most appreciated! THANK YOU

Parents in Maryland were threatened with JAIL TIME because they were making medical decisions for their children. It shouldn't matter how you stand on the vaccination issue...this is a direct assault on parents making INFORMED medical decisions for their children!

From the article:

Many of them complained that their children already were properly immunized but the school system had misplaced the records. They said efforts to get the paperwork straightened out had been futile.

"It was very intimidating," Territa Wooden of Largo said of the letter. She said she presented the paperwork at the courthouse Saturday and resolved the matter.

Was wondering if legally an employer must tell you prior that the company monitors internet traffic on its computers? Do they have to provide some sort of internet use policy? If so, can anything they monitor you for if you didn't know you are being watched be used against you in an unemployment compensation case? Guess it would be similar to being told you are being recorded on a telephone call where as you must agree or object. Thanks for the help!

If the 2 parents of a minor child were never married and only lived together for less than a year 8 years ago? One of the parents is trying to get more court ordered child visitation, and went to a lawyer to put it into motion, and the other parent chose to get a lawyer also, and is now requesting that her lawyer fees be paid for by the other parent!! Is this crazy or what?!

If that house was empty, I could not justify putting myself in harms way to protect some property, so I'm not really interested in the moral judgement part of it.

Did he really have the legal right to go next door and order them to stop and then shoot them dead?
