I know I can turn on the news everyday and find someone else being accused of being "racist", do people just try to take the easy way out and blame it on race? I've said it before, I'll say it again: Not everything is racist.

I'll be racist for saying this, but should we get rid of affirmative action? How is it fair? Isn't it just reverse discrimination?


..let the slurs come.

It was the English (Saxons) who invaded the British Islaes & separated the Celtics peoples of Scotland & Ireland so then why hate eachother (Scot-Irish Protestants & Irish Catholics), as you are both Celtic origins, by the way how did the Scots-Irish become Protestans & Irish in Ireland stayed Catholic since both people's were of Celtic heritage.

Your foreign policy seems quite similar to the Taliban in fact, I am from Pakistan so it seems like our savage neighbours and the world most powerful country seem to like bombing things regardless of any sense, they both play the victims and yet kill anyone. It seems if I resist being raped by American than I am a terrorist and should be killed, just like the Taliban. Dont you think?

I'd like to know how many of you use the net solely for chatting rubbish/waffle or do you actually put it to good use and actually meet up with those you've briefly chatted to? Do you still think the internet is a bad place to meet up or do you think that with a little common sense, forethought and honesty it could be a fabulous means with which to meet people? Do you also realise that to meet someone in a bar or a club that you've never met before etc etc is more dangerous than to chat to them first online before meeting them? There's pictures of them you can see.. a face to face on a webcam each to be shared and of course voice-over-IP,.. (Skype etc etc),... then naturally the telephone,. so why the stigma attached to the internet as a means to meet people, (in person, in the flesh). Would love to know your opinions/views etc. Thanks!

Would you take up a new hobby? Would you try to learn to paint?.....Would you find a job for pay anyway? Would you try to help other people.
And would you come up with a new business to hire retirees?

When I see examples of programs for teaching young children what is proper and improper touching, the perpetrator is always a man.

Since boys are more visual in their learning, could the lack of examples using women give them a false impression that only sexual with an adult male in wrong?

Further, is the societal attitude that the boy got LUCKY still prevalent?

hollywood producer aaron russo has put his *** on the line for all americans by making his film "america, from freedom to fascism". this film is no available for viewing on line in its entirety ( 1hour and 49 minutes).

mr. russo is a true american hero and patriot and has put himself directly onto the radar scree of the "powers that be" in order to get this much need truth to the people.

this film needs to be seen by all americans and all people of oppressed lands.

the film will give you a much needed sense of urgency and lays out how we can stop the sociopathic new world order in its tracks.

if you do anything else today, Please watch this film and pass on the link to everyone you can think of.

if you love life, if you love liberty you must watch this film.

if you think i am hyping this, you will think differently after watching the movie. everyone who sees it "gets" it/

without further ado, here is the link: http://invisiblepatriots.com/web2/Russ

Would the human race advance at a quicker pace? I don't mean not having fun. But ignorant behavior like doing drugs, which is only a temporary high but has much more negative effects. Being a Crip or Blood, killing each other over colors. Wearing expensive name brands just because their the current trend, but you know you wouldn't have brought them otherwise. If people weren't so preoccupied with pointless things, atleast if the majority woke up, do you think we would have accomplished many things quicker? All the minds that are wasted is pretty amazing when if focused on issues that actually matter, we could have already found a cure for AIDS, put an end to drug abuse, decrease homelessness, etc. Anyone thinks this is realistic?

My school does not spank children (nor do any public schools, I've heard), but has anyone who has gone to a private school or maybe any older people, has anyone been paddled at school? I've been paddled by my mom, but what's it like getting paddled by someone else, embarrassing I bet. Does it hurt more or less than when your parents spank you? I was just wondering.

I mean it is nothing but a game filled with pompous, arrogant, over confident blowhards who do nothing but try and showboat and prove how stupid of people they truly are. There is nothing anymore about it that is even close to being a sport. It has the same personalities of professional wrestling. I give up and being from Seattle, I hope the Sonics do move away...who needs a group of meglomaniacs charging incredible amounts of money for tickets to a game just to listen to them whine and cry and act like spoiled babies.

This article, about professional athletes promising to wax their back hair for charity or stop shaving until someone wins or shave their heads as a team for solidarity, asks that question. And I'm wondering, too.

http://www.nascar.com/2007/news/headlines/cup/06/19/hair.today.gone.tomorrow/index.html

I've seen it in real life, too, not just with athletes. My brother just shaved his head in solidarity with a friend with cancer. A work friend protested changes to the dress code by getting several guys to bleach their hair along with him, which made everyone wonder if we were in Sweden or something. Even gay and bi men do it--a friend of mine didn't shave until his boyfriend got a new job.

So guys, what *is* it?

I lived in a haunted house for a few months. I heard the ghost knocking on the walls and walking up and down the stairs. My dogs could hear it and would wake me up, growling at the ghost. Are ghosts troubled souls or evil spirits? Share your experience and thoughts with me.
