Exposed: The 'creepy, lovesick' emails WikiLeaks boss Julian Assange sent to 19-year-old girl student" you know, that's something to think about... I've noticed a lot of IT types send mails to girls, thinking its cool.. what ever happened to sending flowers and a card? Really as educated as he is, you'd think he'd have some class.

If it was up to Obama supporters like myself, we'd have gone in with sufficient troops to begin with and done the job right and never wasted time, lives, equipment or money and never gone into Iraq." then you are only one out of many Obama supporters who think like this... Oh, did you read the wiki on Iraq?

So far the best thing about wikileaks is that it has ended Hillary Clinton's bid for president." actually, I was shocked at what she proposed.... do you think they went through with looking up credit card and flight info? Obama should fire her for it if you ask me.

So quickly people want to forget that george bush started this war under good intentions, we thought" Well, let's just wait for now what is considered the most trusted name in news - Wikileaks, and find out how bad or good of an intention it was.
If Obama's die hard supporters had their way, it wouldn't be going well at all

But I know the answer isn't more guns" I'm not either, I'm saying getting tougher on illegal gun crimes will be a good start. At the moment, most street related gun crimes puts a guy with his buds and they just chill for a year or two. They're not afraid of jail in the slightest.
Most people nowadays don't want to live in the "Old West" where you'd get shot just for cheating at poker, or saying the wrong thing to the wrong guy." No ones arguing your point... but you will get shot if you LOOK at someone the wrong way though or and god forbid you walk up on someone's girl.

I don't see how 'packing heat' would have helped the mother. A bullet-proof vest, maybe." Even that is under the gun.... just where would you buy a bullet proof vest? in a gun shop of course.

zenny11: You know, I've said this before on this board, and I'll say it again. I don't like guns and if I felt confident going into my old neighborhood or that of my mom's, I wouldn't even think of getting one. however, with the lax laws on the books for people getting guns illegally and shooting people in robberies (one of the guys killed my dad, got out in less than a year I now hear), I don't feel safe. If you know of a big city in the US where I shouldn't have to feel unsafe and shouldn't think about having guns, please I'm all ears.

I guess it's no longer safe to go anyplace in the US without packing heat." stupid or brave not to.
But lets hear it from the crowd that sez people carrying guns make things safer, prevent crimes, etc." No, let's hear if from those that feel its better to hug young criminals than to keep them in a harsher jails. This was a throwdown, cut and dry and I'm willing to bet the suspects were repeat offenders from way back. I'll keep my guns on me until you guys get smart about punishing offenders. I think its stupid to be putting legal gun owners in the same pool as those who are not. But you do

Venezuela is gradually going down the toilet" Sad, and they have some fine women.
This man is only a step up from Hitler. Only he's the Socialist version." Actually, Hitler was a socialist. Just that current day socialists don't like that fact. Oh, just because one is a socialist, doesn't necessarily make them a Utopian.

how do we know that the radicals are wrong and the moderates are right about Islam?
Do you even realize you sound like the good Rev. Terry "Burn a Koran" Jones?" he didn't burn a koran and yet, the UK will not (I support the idea though) into the UK for spoken words, but yet, they'll let all these nuts cases in

yet they blindly support the party on things like tax breaks for the rich." You call someone with 250k a year rich? and why are you saying breaks? that would mean that their taxes are going down when in fact they won't they'll stay the same as they did the previous year.

Conquest. It's easier to undermine a country from the inside." I hear that a lot, but do you really think its at that point?

It was just a case of being forced to give tax cuts to the rich." How is it a cut? are their taxes going to go down or stay where they are? Also, I don't like the idea of those only over 250k should see an increase... it makes no sense. They ought to look for other avenues of getting money (and that doesn't include estate taxes - those are disgusting) and cutting the costs of running government. Its way too fat with a lot of fat people.

Abdulwahab only saw that as a weakness that he could exploit and it would be easy to murder Westerners there." Huh, that's a solid point. My question is if they have so much against the west, why move there?

You do not need to be Muslim to understand the unfair accusations continually thrown at Muslims." maybe, but there's a lot of unfair defense for them too... Look at you, continually coming to their defense day in and day out, yet I have yet to hear of one Christian going crazy and blowing things up over the recent portrayal of Jesus with the ants eating him nor did I hear of any when the "Piss Christ" was displayed. Just think of what would have happened if that Anglo Saxon would have gone and set fire to the Koran. "He had blue eyes" He probably did, lately I'm finding people of European decent a bit off - probably why none of them are getting any.

The people who need to be taxed are the 50% of the American population who pay NO federal income taxes." Why don't more people get this fact?
