i dunno if all airlines are doing this (but i would assume so) but delta will not allow any liquids on planes now.
it's funny. they were talking about letting you carry certain things on planes again (ie nail clippers, etc) but now they're taking away liquid b/c of the scare in europe. (which, i'm not technically against, just find it kinda funny)
btw, they're shooting for 2010 for you to have to have a passport to fly. not out of the states, not out of the 48 local states. but to fly, period. from kansas to illinois, you'll have to have a passport. (i like this idea).

Kill the criminals and there will be and end to their crime wave. erm... Thats probably one of the stupidest things I've ever heard.  Mind giving any Real proof, justifcation, fair way, or any other sort of screwed up rationlization for killing all criminals, and how this somehow will solve the crime problem? Killing hundreds of thousands of people will create some pissed off hombres, who will then fall back on a life of crime. A son is fatherless because he was killed, he learns to steal at a young age, and becomes a armed robber later. Killing criminals solves nothing except ridding the world of people who you think are guilty, who MAY be guilty, and probably dont deserve to die. Jesus christ. what a stupid thing to say. I cant eve fathom how this would work, or even how you would think this would work. The English shipped their criminals off the continent. Wanna know something? The crime rate didnt even drop after the Penal Colonies were established. And the criminals went on to form a country and establish a pretty damn good system. Kill the criminals... jesus.... |

Killing the criminals is like taking something dangerous away from a child without telling them why you did that. The don't know, so they'll do it again, and again, and again. Everyone thinks that the worst that could happen is they could die... That leaves a lot of open ends for the worst of criminals.
Say a serial killer is on the lose, he's killed over 25 people. Now, he knows that if he is caught, there will be little of a trail, and he'll be executed. Isn't that a little motivation to be fanatical, say, he desides, "I'm gonna die anyway, might as well take out as many as i can."

We need a new Australia. Send the criminals on a one way trip to the moon. Make them colonize the moon. We get a new country of nice gentle people.

Hey, we gave them the free ticket to the moon, their first set of new clothes, and a cool pack to carry around. We are also giving them tools and supplies to build their own homes and such... That is A LOT of free stuff... they can do food and oxygen on their own just like everyone else!

You know that if you commit sodomy in the state of Alabama, they're going to put you in a cell with a man that's gonna sodomize you. It's the perfect punishment!

Thats still a law? We had an Anti-Sodomy law here untill a few months ago, when a judge had to strike it down. It hadnt been used in a long time, but it was still there. \
Lousiana "It is illegal to rob a bank and then shoot at the bank teller with a water pistol."
Michigan-You may not swear in front of women and children in the state of Michigan.
Texas- The entire Encyclopedia Britannica is banned in Texas because it contains a formula for making beer at home.
Indiana-Liquor stores may not sell milk.

I still have my revised copy of the Illinois State Statutes from 1939. All of the statutes fit into one book. ONE BOOK. Today there are more volumes that are each thicker than that one book and they occupy a WHOLE shelf.
Give lawmakers time and they will strangle us with the law.
We ought to pay them for every law that they remove and charge em for every new law that they pass. That would simplify our lives.
