djuice said it best. A 50% reduction in risk of contracting HIV is like having one less bullet in a revolver while playing Russian roulette.

What was the point of all of that? Arrest, try, convict, suspended sentence, deport.

Kind of hypocritical, isn't it? How about protesting the hunt itself instead. But I understand. It's not the hunt they don't like, it's the bad press.

There's an old saying "go" or get off the pot". If you threaten all the time, pretty soon people stop listening to you. That's why they do things like sink a ship now and then, 'cause nobody listens to them.

"Gay pride"? That term always makes me laugh. You never hear the term "heterosexual pride". What's there to be proud of? If I was a man who preferred physical relationships with men (and I don't) I sure as hell wouldn't be bragging about it.

I predict a suspended sentence, because the judge will have sympathy for her.

honestcanadian - "they cannot let N.korea to join the examination" That's like letting a robbery suspect help the police take fingerprints at a crime scene.

“These anti-North Korean confrontations (like their ship blowing up when we fired a torpedo at it) are an open declaration of war (which we started with sinking an unsuspecting SK naval vessel) against us and an extraordinarily criminal act (the one WE committed) that pushes inter-Korean relations into a state of war (one we're responsible for),” North Korean Maj. Gen. Pak Rim Su said Friday. What a load of bull!

I'm retired US military and not "anti-gay" (to coin a phrase). If I say "I have friends who are gay" (and I do), some will see that as an indication of hidden prejudice. Gays serving openly in the military won't be raping their heterosexual coworkers, but there will obviously be logistical matters to consider.

smithinjapan - I totally agree with you. It just seems to be more of a political issue with gays and lesbians.

Why do gays and lesbians have to make such an issue in public, of what they do in private? I have no need to know what other people do in the bedroom.

"will answer to that with all-out war" - You know, if you always threaten war as often as NK has but never do it, you lose credibility. So you have to do things like sink a sub now and then to gain (albeit the wrong type of) credibility.
