i was at a party with only a few people there, all close friends except two shady individuals. one of which stole my wallet and used it at a gas station down the street on the next day.

im wondering if either my bank or the gas station can pull up the exact point in time when they used the card so i can somehow look at a video surveilance of that point in time to find who did this

It doesn't make sense. If one person ever brings me bodily harm i will fight myself to the end. No law book out there could ever say what is really going on in people's heads.

An example is the recent case of a white man using a shotgun against 3 black home invaders, They want charge him for shooting at the men when they were retreating because he shot them in the back. Come on, could they have been retreating to get someone/thing and come back to the house? You will never know. Someone invades your home they should be killed.

I don't understand why we protect the criminals and try to prosecute the victims. So what he killed some robbers, less thugs off the street in my book.

I really cared about him. My daughter and I moved in. He had some episodes of drinking whiskey and kicked us out several times. Later said he was sorry and it would not happen again. Well, the last time, we really needed to go as he got extremely abusive. I had just received fuel assistance for the winter that gave him $1500 credit on his fuel bill and electric from the state because I was income eligible with my child. I feel that he owes me at least some of that in cash. He has put me and my daughter through a really bad time. She had to go live with her dad and I left the area to a city with a better job market and the hurt and deception made me want to really run. My question is does the #@*&%^! guy owe me anything for the fuel assistance he received?

Granted.
There are alot of very screwed up, irresponsible people out there. And some of them do smoke marjijuana.

But there are alot of people like me. Who smoke weed on a daily basis.. Are still happy contributing memebers of society. Hold great jobs, Have happy familys, drive nice trucks..

and the fact that i smoke, only makes me a happier more accepting relaxed person.

Yet so many people, especially on here,
talk crap, or judge me. or call me names.


but the thing of it is..


i dont pass judgement on you guys.. for any reason.


And i have lived the sober life. After college i was sober for several years.

I have decided since i am settled and successful and i family man. that i can smoke again. So i do. Everday.


But none of you have been in my shoes.. so how can you pass judgement on me

Being sued for accident, what to do?
A friend was driving to work in rush hour traffic (LOL...I should say hourS) on the 101 Freeway in Ventura County, CA.

A man in a pickup truck lost an item out of his truck bed and had parked on the side of the road. He decided to try to retrieve the item by bolting across lanes of traffic. My friend ended up hitting this man who was taken to the hospital. She had no injuries but damage to her car. She did not see him until right before she hit him. Now the man is suing her insurance company for more than her insurance limit which means if they can't settle, he will be suing her.

What does she do now? What type of attorney does she need? It stinks that this guy made a choice to run across lanes of busy traffic and gets hit, then gets to sue her when he caused the accident to himself.

PUTTING ALL PERSONAL FEELINGS AND MORALS ASIDE, I'm not convinced it should be prohibited. Personally I don't believe the government should delegate morality, and any activity which does not harm anyone other than those who willingly participate should not be made illegal. I also tend to believe that many, if not most, of the social and health problems surrounding prostitution come as a result of its prohibition. IF IT WERE REGULATED like any other industry, I think that many of those problems would be significantly lessened. Thoughts?

the cost of keeping prisoners in jail is enormous>can anyone tell me and the British public what percentage of these costly prisoners are, of foreign extract? the opinion I and others have,is, that a person who arrives in this country irrespective from where, who then goes on to commit crimes, are caught ,and found guilty in the courts, should be made to work hard for a period to pay debt to the society who welcomed them to our shores, when that debt is paid they, and the whole of his/her family should then be deported back to their place of origin, this should be mandatory and made clear to all future offenders.

I bought the lock from them. Who ever broke in didn't cut the lock, there was no damage, all they did was move the lock to one side which made for easy access. So the unit itself was not secure and failed. I did not get the insurance and I am wondering if I might have a case in small claims court because the unit itself could not be secured?

I went to an interview in Plano, TX for a big company. The interview lasted 2 and a half hours. After an hour he asked me did I have anywhere else to go and I responded no and he said good. After that he started referring to me as, "you will be doing this and that and I want you to be involved in our new project, do you think you can do this and this? It will require alot of overtime, are you available to do overtime just till March when the project is done. He continue to tell me that we will have conference calls almost every day. He printed out charts to show me the market surveys they use and how I will be creating jobs. He told me "we will start you off at 65k base salary". He made me feel like I was hired. I was given an application and a background check form. However, he did not give me the offer. He said there were things he needed to review and had more questions to ask and that he was going to call me with more questions. He appeared to be very confident in me.
