Looking for Justice in All the Wrong Places
You're driving down the Interstate when suddenly someone starts shooting at you. One moment you're fine; the next moment you're either dead or seriously wounded. The perpetrators, two teenage boys, are caught and given a relatively light sentence (state custody). You (if you were fortunate enough to survive) don't feel that justice has been served. What do you do?
You sue the people who made the video game that supposedly inspired the perpetrators, of course! After all, this is America, and nobody is responsible for his own actions.
Oh, and don't just go after the manufacturer; be sure to include the store that sold the game, too. Be very certain to sue everyone for exorbitant sums of money as well.
Why not take the chance? One of these days somebody's going to get lucky and wind up with a stupid jury that will award ridiculous damages. Who would have thought, years ago, that it would happen to the tobacco companies or gun manufacturers? Now fast food restaurants are in the trial lawyers' sights. Surely video game manufacturers and retailers, all of whom have loads of money they've obtained via the evil capitalist system, can't be far behind.
The lawyer says that Sony and Wal-Mart should be held responsible because the game "inspires and trains people to shoot at vehicles and persons." Does this mean the victims of the D. C. snipers can sue the U. S. government? John Allen Muhammad, after all, was trained "to shoot at vehicles and persons" by the U. S. Army.

Online poker - There can be no other truth to take off from than this: I think, therefore, I exist. There we have the absolute truth of consciousness becoming aware of itself.

The correct way to punctuate a sentence that starts: Of course it is
none of my business, but -- is to place a period after the word but.
Don't use excessive force in supplying such a moron with a period.
Cutting his throat is only a momentary pleasure and is bound to get you
talked about.

There are two sorts of laws, those of absolute equity and universality, and the bizarre ones which owe their autonomy only to blindness or to the force of circumstance. The latter merely cover the man who is breaking them with a passing disgrace, which time then transfers to the judges and the nations, on whom it remains forever. by texas hold'em

Slaves are generally expected to sing as well as to work ... I did not,
when a slave, understand the deep meanings of those rude, and
apparently incoherent songs. I was myself within the circle, so that I
neither saw nor heard as those without might see and hear. They told a
tale which was then altogether beyond my feeble comprehension: they
were tones, loud, long and deep, breathing the prayer and complaint of
souls boiling over with the bitterest anguish. Every tone was a
testimony against slavery, and a prayer to God for deliverance from
chains.
-- Frederick Douglass

It was pleasant to me to get a letter from you the other day. Perhaps
I should have found it pleasanter if I had been able to decipher it. I
don't think that I mastered anything beyond the date (which I knew) and
the signature (which I guessed at). There's a singular and a perpetual
charm in a letter of yours; it never grows old, it never loses its
novelty .... Other letters are read and thrown away and forgotten, but
yours are kept forever -- unread. One of them will last a reasonable
man a lifetime.

Hi, great message board.
I just started a weightloss program to safely lose weight.
My doctor told me to order phentermine from a quality online pharmacy.
So I think http://www.order-adipex-now.com and http://www.cheap-adipex-here.com is the best online pharmacy sites.
My prescription medicine, adipex and cheap phentermine , arrived in time and now I'm starting to lose weight and look great.

Certainly it is wrong to be cruel to animals and the destruction of a whole species can be a great evil. The capacity for feelings of pleasure and pain and for the form of life of which animals are capable clearly impose duties of compassion and humanity in their case.
