What people do not understand is that there is no law enforcement in Mexico. Yes there are people wearing the uniforms. However, they do what they want. In Mexico, you have to fear the police and military more than the every day street criminal. In my opinion this is due to the fact that money runs the country. The elected officials are concerned about how they can fatten their bank accounts. They usual steal from the people or take bribes. Oversight and prope...

Okay maybe writing is not that hard after all. My first though in the Judge Alito fiasco is one of celebration and gloating. The republicans are pushing a supreme court candidate for judge down the democrats throats and there is nothing they can do about it. However, I realize that this a serious issue and warrants serious attention. The only thought after meditating on the matter is that we do not need another government lackey who will do the bidding of his political allies. There is alread...

GOVERMENT COMPASION This entry is for all who think government should care more. If you care so much about what you see as injustice, where is your non-profit organization. I see to many people saying “government, government” In my opinion, government should safeguard working person's money (taxes)and safeguard the contract (constitution) between government and the people. Instead of creating a system that makes people dependent and less likely to work for themselves by demandin...

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Luke, chapter 1 1: Forasmuch as many have taken in hand to set forth in order a declaration of those things which are most surely believed among us, 2: Even as they delivered them unto us, which from the beginning were eyewitnesses, and ministers of the word; 3: It seemed good to me also, having had perfect understanding of all things from the very first, to write unto thee in order, most ...

It is not the job of public schools to preach. Christians need to be out in society sharing the good news of salvation through having Christ as your lord and savior. I do not believe that evolution has proven its case. In fact every day we see evidence that there is no scientific basis for this ideology. This lack of evidence, however, does not mean that we, Christians, can demand that a government entity espouse our beliefs. I see this effort to have “Intelligent Design” in ...

It is not over. We do not have the luxury of resting. It would have been great if our generation could of gone on about its business working and forging a life. However, a different legacy was given to us. In these days humanity, itself, is in danger. Terrorist, cooperate greed, teen age parenthood, drugs, tyrants, natural disasters, illegal immigration, dysfunctional public education systems, corrupt and/or political ambitious politicians, negligent parents, and all the other soci...

The Case Against Illegal Immigrants. The fight is not just against people from Mexico. It is against all people who enter the USA illegally. The majority are from Mexico. They claim they are coming to pursue economic opportunities that do not exist in their country. This is a lie. Many Mexicans are part of an expanding and thriving Mexican Economy and do very well without migrating to the USA.. What you have is a lot of people who do not want to meet the challenges of advanci...

POLITICS OF POVERTY In Hong Kong people are protesting big business as an ill that hurts average workers and the poor. I ask why are they poor and don't you know the world keeps advancing and progressing and the only way to provide for your self is to become prepared to participate in real job market. I think that we all, regardless of our personal reality, have the personal responsibility to take care our daily needs. RELIGION This next comments brings sadness to my heart. ...

IMMIGRATION You shouldn't reward people who by their mere presence have prooven that they have no respect for your laws. If you are going to initiate a guest worker program first charge a comfortable fee (tax) to applicants and restrict people who have already entered illegally from applying for a guest worker visa. I say that part of the problem is the quality,or lack there of, of the law enforcement agents who have the responsibility of arresting illegal immigrants. I see to man...

Over the last week the news story of Stanely Tookie Williams has described the issue as one of the wrongful punishment of an innocent victim of society and as the integrity of systems of justice. Mr. Williams was a poor black man that grew up in an environment were environmental influences contributed to him forming one of the most notorious gangs in America. In addition, Mr. Williams was tried b...

In case you forgotten crazy people are planning your destruction. Just because you have had a small time of peace does not mean that the enemy has gone in to hiding. Even if the troops are pulled out of Iraq it will not mean that the war on terrorism is over. Saddam with biological and chemical weapons and a willing terrorist customer base was a big threat to the people of the United States of America. In relation to the poor and congress' cuts in programs to the poor I can only ...

In life, any one came have a melt down. It is unfortunate if this melt down happens in public. However, life goes on. Well almost. In this america once you have been seen in your underwear you are an outcast and not worthy of mingling with the locals. This week people in America have seen Mr. Tom Benson and Ms. Harriet Miers suffer public ridicule. I sense that most people in America hate people who could be called rich. They definitely hate strong leaders. Mr. Benson may regr...
