    Smugglers' Jeep Gets Stuck On US Border Fence

    It doesn't pay to underestimate the intelligence [or resources] of the enemy - a lesson I hope we got from 9/11. There are already tunnels under the border, and if I were wanting to move a lot of drugs and/or people from one side to the other, I'd prefer invisible transport, myself. With...

    How inconsiderate some people are.

    appreciate the chivalry, but it's not about women - it's about public urination [and exposure] being illegal for very good reasons. Most of us hesitate to confront the perp [also for very good reasons], but I wouldn't hesitate to get a photo of the act. The perp who would respond with violence...

    Abortion-should she have gotten the dealth penalty

    Thanks, Turtle, for the origin [letter from John Jay] of the quote. I particularly note another line that oddly doesn't get quoted [or followed] "Real Christians will abstain from violating the rights of others, and therefore will not provoke war." Christians have the right to refrain from...

    expediting in the blood.

    You haven't retired from participating, I hope! You bring a lot to EO, and would be missed very much - please find time for us in your new routine, whatever it is. [If it involves grandchildren, I'm jealous!]

    expediting in the blood.

    You must be new here, lol - but the teasing is entirely affectionate, ok? PS I loved Miss Kat's name for him: Zaniac - it suits him, I think. :D

    Opinions on self defense

    Zane: the answer to your question on what's stopping the druggies from breaking into a van carrying "a million dollars [street value] of narcotics" is exactly as you described it: a plain white wrapper. They have no idea of the contents, and would assume that drugs are delivered with the same...

    Where Is The Outrage?

    Tim: I didn't attach any special significance to the "you could have stopped at 3 k's" comment, [just Scott being witty in his usual pithy form - which I seriously envy, lol] and the guy who did is the same guy who didn't see any Klan allusions in your posts [see post 9]. Stirrers like outrage...

    Abortion-should she have gotten the dealth penalty

    The last sentence describes some of our very best threads, lol. Seriously: being challenged to defend your statements [to a tough crowd!] is a good thing, IMO. I've learned a lot from what others bring to the discussions, and that's what the Soapbox was intended to promote. Well - that and the...

    Please vote correctly, enough said.

    The anti-Obama fervor has been surprising me for years, but I'm agreeing with Abbie: "I'm tired of Broncobama and Mitt Romney" already! :rolleyes:

    To Keep Federal Funding, Planned Parenthood Opens Cooking, Cleaning And Laundry Clini

    Re: To Keep Federal Funding, Planned Parenthood Opens Cooking, Cleaning And Laundry C Some not so young women, too: it has to be 25 years since the time a daughter's friend [around age 5] asked what I was doing [peeling potatoes]. When I replied "Making mashed potatoes" she looked puzzled &...

    Abortion-should she have gotten the dealth penalty

    "As the Government of the United States was not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion" is a direct and unimpeachable quote from Thomas Jefferson - you can nitpick ['it's not a '"founding document"] but you're just playing with semantics, dude. As Turtle pointed out, IF the Christian...

    Abortion-should she have gotten the dealth penalty

    And a whole lot of innocent bystanders & civilians [including babies!] too - but that's ok, it's approved murder. My point was that prolifers can justify killing people when it suits their beliefs, but it's the ol slippery slope: when you admit some exceptions to the rule, the only question...

    You should just die

    Xiggi may be right, but it might also say 'we want to pass it because we made a deal [for our own reasons] and we can't take the time to thoroughly review it first [for our own reasons] so consider it a done deal & move on already! We have campaigns to raise funds for, people! That sounds like...

    Abortion-should she have gotten the dealth penalty

    Change just one word in the first sentence: not having children until you are ready is the best idea. Not having sex until one is mature enough to cope with the emotional aspects [and protect against the physical hazards of pregnancy and STDs] is a realistic goal - but until marriage? That's a...

    Anybody familiar with EDS ?

    Probably my background in medical terminology & acronyms, but I was expecting a photo of a little blue pill - Homer was a better choice, lol. :o

    Abortion-should she have gotten the dealth penalty

    "Renaming things to make them pretty" is a "liberal bull**** thing"?! I don't believe it's liberals who use photos of adorable babies to push their views on abortion, is it now? The typical first trimester abortion is not what is pictured, and that's a fact I know from personal observation...

    Abortion-should she have gotten the dealth penalty

    'Pro life' people are a strange contradiction: they are willing to admit exceptions to the sacredness of life, [self defense, war, capital punishment] but only those of which they approve. For an unwanted pregnancy, they'll make an exception for rape or incest, which means if the woman can prove...
