Basically im trying to take an informal poll to see what people think about female police officers. I'm thinking of switching my major from nursing to criminal justice. I'm aware that some people hold a misconception that female officers are butch/lesbians.
..........Also, Perhaps this should be a seperate question; but for anyone out there with knowledge of both professions; would it be advisable to become a paramedic or a cop. Both are appealing, so personality is not a factor. In terms of pay, advancement etc, which is the better move?
Thanks in advance.

If evolution is based on Darwins Natural Selection theory, that the strongest or most adapt, survive better than others, is to be held true, then surely in modern society we have an almost negative natural selection process, as the fittest, strongest, cleaverest or most adapt to survive are no longer becoming dominant and having more offspring. In fact those people probably have good jobs and big careers and are probably less likely to have children at all. So do we find the people who are having more children are lower classes, who if anything probably are the weakest, less educated, those maybe less adapt to cope with the vigours of life today. Obivously there's lots of other factors effecting education, class and upbringing and I'm generalising massively.
But generally, we no longer cull the weakest from the herd, but actually do what we can to helping them survive.
Are the differences so small that we will just no longer evolve or will we just gradually negatively evolve?

There was a mouse running round my house a while ago. I caught it, took it a half mile away and let it go, no more mouse.
Should we be killing another mammal just because it invades our environment trying to live it's life?
And if we should, does that give another animal, ie. marine life, the right to wipe us out just because we taint its' world with our waste? ie the stuff we put into sewer outlets?

I don't why but we can't communicate with them or anything. They are like away from the rest of the world. Even Iran has life in their country and they communicate with people around the world. I am sure a lot of you might have read "To Kill A Mockingbird", you know the Boo Radley character, he never comes out of the house and the N. Koreans are the same. Why are they like that?

One country's good is another country's despicable.

for example, Al Qaeda (or whoever did it, this isn't a 9/11 conspiracy chat) bombing the WTCs. That was so great for them, almost assured paradise in the end. For us, horrible and repugnant. So, is there a true right and wrong? Or just beliefs and opinions?

Sorry, this is kind of an impossible question to answer... I would just like some views.

PATNA, India: Police in the eastern Indian state of Bihar on Friday dug up the remains of two teenage girls alleged to have been killed by their father in a ritual human sacrifice earlier this week. Kishor Kunal, a police official at Runisaidpur in Sitamarhi district, 160 km north of state capital Patna, said 18-year-old Renu Kumari and 13-year-old Anu Kumari were killed with a sword and then their limbs were cut into pieces.


"This is a case of human sacrifice during the festival," Kunal said. Police said the father had fled since the incident in Vasudeopur village. The human sacrifices were part of the recent 10-day Hindu festival of Dassera when people pray to Durga, a goddess who symbolises strength and power, according to police and villagers.

Police said a 40-year-old villager was also killed when a man came running with a spear, yelling "Jai Ma Durga" and slashed the head of the person sitting at a tea stall," said Akhileshwar Das, deputy superintendent of police.
