I don't know what the details are in this particular case, but a lot of the "children" that are listed in these statistics as handgun victims turn out to be teen-aged street gang members.

Here's a partial answer about Federal income taxes collected for 2005: The Top 1% of wage earners accounted for 31.6% of tax collections. The Top 5% accounted for 52.6% The Top 10% accounted for 65.3% The Top 20% accounted for 80.6% This means the Bottom 80% accounted for 19.4% of tax...

This guy obviously isn't playing with full deck - I can't believe any court would actually hear the case. Hopefully the owners will be able to recover some of their legal fees, although it sounds like he's probably broke.

That's a good idea to check with their current drivers. These smaller localized carriers often incur a lot of deadhead miles on moves that take them out of their immediate area. You might have a nice move from MI to TN but then have to go back to MI empty because they don't have any accounts...

The customers are putting more pressure on their expedite carriers for these shorter moves. From their perspective, a lot of the short moves are just as important and just as time-sensitive as the long ones. They expect their expedite carriers to take both, and the ones that accept the short...

Evidence of the "liberal agenda" of publications like Time Magazine can be found just by reading the lists of these so-called most influential people. The magazine recognizes those of marginal significance that promote liberal causes while ignoring George Bush, declaring him a "lame duck"...

I should have included this in the previous post - at the time Harry Reid was talking about Vice-Pres. Cheney's "9% approval rating" the Harris Poll showed Cheney's approval actually at 25%. That same poll showed Reid's approval rating at 22%.

Just a bit of information from the latest Gallup Poll, even though I'm not really a big fan of polls. There are certain data that the mainstream media refuses to publish, one of which is the approval and disapproval ratings of congress. How many people have seen that the approval rating for the...

There have been so many companies trying to get into the expedite business over the past several years we're now starting to reach the saturation point. When business starts to flatten out, the first ones to start having trouble are the small companies with 30-some trucks, one guy working in...

This comes back around to the issue of dealing with mentally disturbed individuals determined to commit mass murder as a means toward their own self aggrandizement. In the case of Columbine, those two kids were giving off all kinds of warning signs and everyone - especially their parents - was...

Yet another example why the mainstream media shouldn't be taken seriously by serious people. This all ties in with their liberal agenda. Buying this rag is a waste of money - reading it is a waste of time, unless you like comic books.

Valerie Plame and her socialite husband are only concerned with their own self promotion, and making the cocktail circuit in DC. Now that they've signed their story to a movie deal, they can expand on that effort. It's a shame that Lewis Libby has to be put through the legal hassle and expense...

This sounds related to the Security & Prosperity Partnership that the Bush administration is trying to sneak past the public. We get national ID cards - the Mexicans get Trusted Traveler cards to come and go as they please. The North American Union is created while the uninformed public sits by...

RE: Polling data, like any other statistic, can be made to say whatever one wants. It might well be that 75% of the public would like to see our soldiers come home. However, the part of the poll the mainstream media doesn't report is that nearly this same percentage of people want us to be...

Maybe she should be the first to revive the use of corn cobs, the Sears & Roebuck catalog, or perhaps recycled phone books - all of which are biodegradable. I'm sure there's some air space on one of those semis that would accomodate a supply of these items and they should be easily available...

Forget the pardon - he'll probably get the conviction reversed on appeal. Let's let the legal process run its course as it did in Oliver North's situation when his conviction for his Iran-Contra involvment was reversed on appeal. Regarding the so-called "leak" of the CIA agent name (Valerie...

Ark, you might want to look into whether or not any VA hospitals near you are associated with state university medical schools. As mentioned in a previous post, the VA Hospital in Johnson City, TN is a first class facility. It improved greatly when the medical school was established at East Tenn...

Obama graduated from Harvard Law school in 1991 and moved to Chicago to direct a voter registration project. After that he worked for a civil rights law firm and taught constitutional law at University of Chicago Law School. He was elected to the IL state senate in 1996 and served until he was...

I think the reason a lot of people are against the war is that they don't understand the threat posed by these Islamo-facist groups such as Al-Quaeda and the theocracy that controls Iraq. Just read the history of Hitler's rise to power in the mid-1930s - his words and actions are stunningly...
