thats odd, because EVERYTIME im stopped for anything, they check my license and registration and it takes maybe five minutes

but thats IF papers are in order or IF the driver has papers at all, I Guess,

Funny thing...

By law, in most jobs, it is illegal to ask for identification or age verification when hiring an employee. This means the employer is legally barred from asking an immigrant to produce a green card. There are exception clauses, some of which apply to the restaurant business. For example, a server/bartender is required to be 18 years old in order to serve alcohol, and minors are not allowed to handle knives.

So, in many cases, the law actually prevents businesses from screening out illegal aliens during the hiring process. It's a Catch-22: if you ask for an ID or refuse to hire an illegal alien based on a "hunch", you may be violating the law. The latter falls under discrimination laws, primarily due to ethnicity.

When I have a legal question, I often look up statutes, and read them several times to make sure I understand the wording. In a state like CT, nearly any law can be looked up on the web through a government website. If that's not enough, the local library has a complete up-to-date set of the books of statutes. Between the two, anyone can research the laws around here, but most don't, not even the business laws.

got a cell phone that takes pics? take a pic of the vehicle with the license plate and send it to the police, did that a couple times and the police acutally showed up and gave em a ticket! i waited to see it. couldn't believe it but it did happen.

Oh, it's definitely up there.

The long profile is something of a lost art. It takes someone with incredible verbal ability, amazing communicative instincts, and way way way too much time on their hands, to create a really good, really long profile.

In fact, I'm thinking of expanding my profile to 2500 pages and releasing it as a series of books. See, THAT'S creative. Also, it's a way to get more product out there without having to do a lot of work.

A recent study found that every execution saves somewhere around 18 lives. Do you think it's possible that sometimes execution is the best way to save lives?

many people deserve the death penalty but until government can hand it out in a much less arbitrary fashion i'm against it. i won't go into the detterence or innocent put to death arguement but i find it absurd that a man can drive from LA to las vegas, kill his wife and be subject to the death penalty when if he'd waited until he got back home to california the death penalty would not be in play with the moritorium in place now.

oj was on trial when california had the death penalty but the prosecutors did not put it in play because they knew they'd never get a jury to give the juice to the juice. of course he had the dream team to boot. at the same time in a courtroom down the hall a teen was on trial for murdering a rival gang member with a public defender for council. he now sits on death row in san quinten. so here we have oj who murdered two law abiding people who could not have been given the death penalty by his jury even if he'd been convicted and a kid who'll soon die because he took a crook off the street. either it is about EQUAL due process of law or it's not.

as regards the innocent dieing, i'd suggest reading john gisham's 'an innocent man' his only non fiction court drama. in a small oklahoma town a young woman was brutally raped and murdered. she was the daughter of an influential business man and pillar of the community and the district attorny, the sherrif and the judge who'd try the case were all up for re-election. the town was crying for an arrest so they invented a perp, tried him with faulty evidence, convicted him and he sat on death row for twelve years before barry schek of oj dream team fame and founder of the innocence project got him off as the first innocent man exonerated with dna. the guy was a minor league ball player with major legue prospects when he was arrested and died of poor health in his fifties having succumed to various nervous dissorders.

me too, It always comes back to when one views 'life' as valuable

I know people anti death penalty but pro abortion,, they feel our life once we are out the womb is more valubable than lfe in the womb


I know people anti death penalty but pro assisted suicide, they feel life outside the womb is valuable only as long as the person has 'quality of life'


than, others who 'across the board' as you and I , who just dont condone the premeditated taking of a life


(with the exception of 'pulling the plug' on those that would not otherwise have any chance to 'live' without being sedentary and hooked to machines'

I strongly oppose the death penalty
