Zimmerman, Schiavo, hanging chads ... FL has issues

What I want to know about Zimmerman ... why did he have a firearm at all ? If you give neighborhood watch personnel firearms, is there not a risk of vigilantism ?

Unfortunately, saying that blacks are more racist is a racist comment :eek:

"It Should Be Illegal For The Press To Cosy Up To The White House" Kind'a violates the 1st Amendment, doesn't it ?

Putin on Snowden ... don't hurt our American partners. Yes, it's strange, but there may be hope for the relationship after all. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-23135734

Hmm. Having Jesus at your side as you assume the Messianic throne, when it's a crime (possibly capital) to possess Christian literature in your country seems a bit two faced to me.

Under the dome ... the next Lost ? Well, we'll see. Looks promising. Time will tell.

It's our gov't (at least, according to the US Constitution ... I see an audit coming :) ... we should decide what the IRS (gov't) can and can't do. Let's crowdsource the IRS.

ConservatIves - do you really want to see Biden in the WH ? I think not.

I dunno. I think it's different this time. I remember back in maybe 2000, a friend asking me if she should take her insurance settlement and put it into the market. Even back then, I said, can you afford to lose it ? People seem to be much more cautious now. I think there is still a...

IRS targeted NAACP in 2004 Ok. It was wrong then, and it's wrong today. It's got to stop. No looking at facebook, tweets, emails. Just the tax form, receipts, etc.
