Seizing peoples houses should be illegal. Why aren`t hard working citizens getting assistance so they can get through this nonsense mortgage thing? The big companies got help. And it was the peoples cash they stole.

Extremism is causing these problems. The lenders are at fault for the current mortgage crisis not the borrowers.

The title refers to one incident yet there are 4 or 5 mentioned. I didn`t hear about the other ones at all. Why is it when one of these incidents occurs the media decides to report the others that noone was aware of? To bring more fright into the world?

tkoind2, Your comments are always on the money.
Gotta love the French. Passionate and stubborn. We need more of what
s going on in France to happen in the rest of the world. Fight back! if you dont youll soon realize that the future is bleak if we continue to allow governments/corporations to control peoples lives and turn them in to robots. The only way to win is if everyone fights together for a better world. Throwing your hands in the air and saying I cant do anything is very cowardly. The French are not complaining they are just fighting for what`s right.Posted in: French strikes disrupt life, shut Eiffel Tower

If a shop won
t deviate in the slightest, I usually say "Ill take my business elsewhere" and then ask them "You dont mind that?" and they say, shoganai. Very stupid business sense. Extra pickles please, no can do. These kinds of stringent rules are just silly. People just cant think in this joint. I never have a problem with my beer though. I just tell them I buying a beer, not bubbles. Same as a cold drink. I like ice but not packed with it. I`m buying a cold drink not ice. Unfortunately, it might seem a little abrasive but oh well. Some service places have to wake up.Posted in: In Japan, the customer is not king

The airlines don
t give a squat about anyone in economy so dont expect too many changes despite the fees. In fact, people should just stop flying until this crap is scrapped. Demand it! Talk about finding sneaky ways way to make money off your customers. Business/First Class are the top dogs and the only ones that the airlines are concerned about.Posted in: Choosing a seat on a plane: Not just about legroom

Other world issues are irrelevant. Parents who have been good to their children deserve contact with them. very simple. No debate needed. If one the parents intentionlly removes or hides children from the other parent and fabricates lies about a parent and tells their children such things should be in jail.

Keep fighting people. Defeat these corrupt tyrants. They are wasting your money and then telling you they don`t have any. Governments are out of control everywhere. The world is getting worse despite the "cover-up feel good talk" we hear. Most people are working hard but paid a pittance or just let go. Horrible! The past two years have seen jobs and wages cut but the "Elite" have become wealthier. Keep fighting. Sitting on the sofa will change nothing.
tkoind2,
You got it!

If something is true it is not a conspiracy. If people want to trust the US government about 9/11 then so be it but it doesn`t mean that it is truthful. Millions of people want the 9/11 reports investigated again because there are unanswered questions. Not investigated by a government group either. The increased policing and military (what is the military doing conducting operations in communities anyway?)build up in cities/towns etc. is very scary. We often hear how 9/11 has created more security for the American people but really it has just created more authorized control over American citizens. Ahmadinejad has some whacky ideas but he has some valid points.

OK Bill. In about two years time the NWO will have an even stronger hold on society. You frauds should have had the USs problems fixed ages ago. I`m sure the sheeple will listen to you. Wake up America time is running out.
