I have a great deal of respect for them. Seems they are right about a lot of things over the years. I never got into the trappings of religion, and it seems they don't either, like killing each other in war.
Ha, yea of course I have my issues with them on certain things...I was just curious if any were over here.
nah. my parents left wen i was born, and my temptations to drive blood donor trucks to kingdom halls proved unfruitful.

Curious, what kind of issues? Frankly, I'd rather live in a neighborhood full of JW's than a neighborhood full of Muslims. It's just that I've never seen JW's cause any real problems for the world, and in law class, we learned that a huge number of freedoms we take for granted are because of Supreme Court rulings they took to the Supreme Court and won. For instance, say you're pissed at the government, and don't feel like saluting the flag one particular day. That used to get you in trouble, just like in Nazi Germany, but no longer. I think on balance, they've been a plus for society, even though annoying at times. I'd sure rather trust one of them with taking care of my house while I'm on vacation than a lot of my long-time "friends".
Here is an article from Wikipedia about the Supreme Court cases

Mainly theological issues. They have a very control based rule system in their religion which I don't like. Like any religion people at the top get away with practically anything while the lowly JW's are brow beat for just watching the wrong kind of movie.
However I think the whole ,"they are morally better" is true and false. They have the same problems like anyone else. Child molestation and covering it up was a major problem as well as petty theft amongst the dubs. However I agree I would prefer to have some in my neighborhood as they are generally good people.

With no offense intended towards your parents, I hate Jehovah's Witnesses purely because they don't go away. I've had a Jehovah's Witness at my door, as is typical, trying to preach to me about what's right, so I told him to go away and shut the door. Half an hour later he was still there, ringing my doorbell non stop. If you believe in something that's fine, but keep it to yourself. These words not intended to "you" in particular of course, but the day I start telling people how to live their lives and what to believe in is the day I start changing my ways for those people who tell me the same. Whether you're Muslim, Jewish, Christian, or anything in between, live your life and let other people live theirs.
Easy way to stop the JW's at your door:
1.Notify them that you do not want them ever coming back or you will call the police.
2.Tell them to write down your address and what you said on the paper they carry around marking houses.
3.Tell them you are going to call the Kingdom Hall and speak to an elder and inform them to be put on the "do not call" list. Yes many Kingdom Halls actually have these.
Problem solved!
One thing you can count on is that dubs will do everything in their power to either not go to court or to not look bad in the press.
Heheh, put on the Kingdom Hall's do not call list, that's awesome... I'd feel like I was playing World of Warcraft, next I'll notify them that I'm going to report to their guild leader that I saw them talking to a night elf mohawk from another guild. For those that missed the reference,

Thanks for the kind words. Personally, I'll try and keep away from any God-based comments. After all, it's probably religious differences behind all this anyway...
I am sure that I am not mistaken if I say that most of the people of Spain are also with you and they accompanies to you in the feeling.
I wish that London does not have to lament so many victims as we have undergone 11M2004 in Madrid.
Hopefully this finishes soon.

Yeah, it's not very nice. I was just reading the BBC news website, and I had to close it. Seeing all that destruction, on streets and roads that I've walked and driven down hundreds of times. Horrid.
I hope nobody from this forum was involved.
So, whilst we're focussed on helping the worlds poor and legislating for environmental change, some selfish little bastards are killing people in the name of religion - a religion that DOESNT actually support killing people for political gain! I feel so sorry for those hurt in today's cowardly attack on innocent people, and sorry for the inevitable backlash by the less-informed, both against civil liberties and the followers of Islam.
God Bless!!!
This is insane...
I'm so sad and so sorry...

My thoughts go out to all those people hurt and for those that have lost loved ones. My Fiancee works in a London hospital and I'm just glad she is safe and well and I'm proud that she is doing everything she can to help people hurt or injured. I stongly believe in Karma, what these awful people have done will come back to get them in equal measure!

To the great people of Great Britain
Deep from my heart, I send you a cry of sympathy and anger. I am a Christian Lebanese but I am sure that many muslims of my country share this feeling. Although we have been struggling against terrorrism for years, we felt every drop of blood shed in London as it were ours. But we must never lose hope in this kind of war. Terror cannot win, it will not win.
God Bless the world..
My sympathies.
But remember.. More worse casualities does happen every hour in Iraq , Afganistan etc..

I have to thank somebody up there (whoever it is) for moving my meeting in Angel London today at short notice - otherwise I would very likely be amongst the dead or injured.
what nationality is Al-Quaida?
Why cant they bomb the building that MS is holding Mobile 5 on the Blue angel
Today is another sad day to remember. I would like to send my deepest sympathy to those affect by this terrible and inhumane deed.
I know we are civilised but sometimes events in life make you feel uncivilised and allow anger to take control. This is one moment where I most definitely feel uncivilised and feel that these people live by a law that states "an ey for an eye". and we should reply in full.
I know this is not a political or religious forum but this cannot continue and retalition is the only thing, these animals will understand.

I feel sorry to british people who died by Terrorists who do not differentiate... I feel sorry for the innocent people who died in Iraq, Afganistan and all the world by terrorists (individuals and countries)
they kill innocent people from there own religion and countries such as Iraq and other countries. Where are they when Saddam was in power!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
May Allah help all innocent people around the world and guide us to the right path.
I am trying to find a justification of what they are doing in Islam but I could not.
our praise must go to the emergency services who have done such a professional job. Without their swift actions the death count would be so much higher.
Friends.
I wish peace to the people in England, I wish peace to the perpetrators.
Throughout human history mans legacy is marked by a thick path of blood, millions have died for this cause or that, someone always can justify their actions.
I tell you now, one more war is not the answer, you can’t “fight” terrorism, just as you can’t “fight” the darkness, you can only bring in the light.
To retaliate is to sink to the level of the terrorist and to become one! Peace is the only possible answer to aggression, love to hate.
Mahatma Ghandi toppled the British colonials through peace. A world of peace, understanding and reconciliation will overwhelm the deepest darkness. Bigger guns will only deepen the darkness.
Brothers, I urge you, put aside your anger, be the bigger, higher being, forgive, send peace to your friends, your family and your enemy.
Peace my friends, peace.

As for the "gateway drug" idea, I've been smoking pot for like 5 years now (20 years old) and refuse to touch anything else. It's safe, it makes me feel good, why do I need other drugs?
In fact, if you believe commercials, it makes you shoot your friend with your dad's shotgun because you don't know what you're doing, it also makes you jump out of a window and drown in a pool while babysitting.

Great pic mate! LOL
If in all world this can be a normal reality, I´m sure that consumism will drop and a lot of "Legal Buisness" will go down...
This plant has been used since the human is on this planet. Also if you know a little about the human body, there is a "Canabis receptor" in our brain...
So the problem is not the plant, is how we use it!
Legalize it!
You can see in Holland compared to any other country the consumism rate is very low (Of course does not include all the foreigners travelling there to try it)

a great truth
While I have nothing again using drugs of any kind, including alcohol (my personal favorite), I refuse to use the non-legal type for a simple reason: they would taste & smell like blood. In my country the drug gangs are heavily armed and often fight for control of the distribution points. The problem is that these reckless and ignorant bastards don't just kill themselves, they actually take out a lot of innocent people in the process. I can't conceive giving money, even one cent, to an industry that eventually will kill me at random or those I love. If drugs were free then...
That's a good point, dgaud007. Thankfully, where I'm from, the marijuana is grown by my friends, so I know it's ethical. They're technically criminals I suppose, but they're just regular guys with regular jobs, very nice.
(PS Technically, aren't we from the same country?)
Well you probably are gonna get much reply from us SINCE ITS ILLEGAL lol.... but hey obama is president now hahaha

Valid point there, but it seems to me to be an argument for legalization.
Or for home-grown!
The only ppl that want it legalized are the potheads - which would be the reason why they drive to have it legalized. It's more of a intellectual downgrade than a beneficiary.
Can't say I do, but won't say I never have

Really? Michigan just voted 63-37 to have medical marijuana legalized. Are you telling me 63% of Michigan are potheads? Massachusetts voted 65-35 to decriminalize marijuana, so now anything under an ounce is just a $100 fine. Is 65% of the state of Massachusetts potheads? The fact is, people see it's harmless and have no problem decriminalizing or legalizing it, whether they smoke it or not. Please don't bring your biased opinion here when you have no more experience with pot than what you see on commercials.

Remember in junior high this kid from special ed decided to pick a fight with me, he ended up smacking me causing my glasses to fall off, and his special ed buddies decided to destroy them, I really didn't want to punch the kid, I punched him once, the nurse later told me I broke his rib. lol

If they prefer to ambush you ambush them.

It's disgusting but thankfully they were just that dumb to provide the video that has now condemned them. I hope the authorities throw the book at them.
I always taught my kids to punch a bully in the face in front everybody and I wont be mad at them. Ill deal with the school, don't let some one pick one you like that (it will also allow other bullys to take notice and join in) My son did slap the **** out of one on the bus, I didn't condone it. A bully will leave you alone if you let them know you wont take it weather they are bigger or not. They'll find another wimp to pick on that will allow it. Its that simple.
Nothing like teaching kids self confidence and how to handle themselves in an uncomfortable situation inste of playing victim like our culture is pushing.

Bullying is usually at the high school level, Hormones are high, insecurities are popping up, and street violence follows the students into class.
Most of the trouble makers don't graduate high school much less make it to college.

Ah I remember High School. Some kid (remember, bigger than me) didn't like something I said. During class threatened me that I'll get beat up. I ignored him.

South Park is oddly insightful in a says what everyone thinks but doesn't say kind of way. So obviously we need shock collars in child sizes too.

This reminds me of that South Park episode where Cartman gets the shock collar for swearing too much.

Yeah that's the one. I saw it a long time ago.
So, I had a local deal in trading my HTC Rezound for a Razr Maxx. We kept in contact via text. The trade was my Rezound for the Maxx. Then I was asked what accessories it came with, so I told them it came with screen protector , and they asked, "if you get an extended battery, you got a deal ."
So I said ok to getting the extended battery and ordered it the same day. Took about 4days to get to my house. I contact the person saying I received the extended battery and asked when we could meet. We agreed on the upcoming Saturday. Saturday comes, and the person asks if we can meet around noon , I said ok.
About 15mins later I receive a text saying the deal is canceled as the person is giving it to their father. So I say ok. I check Craigslist about 20 mins later and find the same person selling it. I emailed the person asking for a trade to make sure it was them. Same email, same location, and same number. My conclusion, I was lied to.
I don't have a problem if they decide not to do the trade, but don't say you're gonna do the trade, have me buy an expensive item, then lie to me about not wanting to the trade by saying you're giving it to your dad. Just don't blatantly lie to me that you're nit interested in the trade. The fact that they lied is more of why I'm pissed.
Was I wrong to be too trusting? Maybe.
Anyways, thanks for reading 
My head hurts. I need a drink......and maybe a wall to bash my head against.
Driver A is given job to pick up locally and take Customer B to EWR (Newark/Liberty International Airport for you taxi n00bs  ).
Fifteen minutes later said customer calls and politely asks if they missed the cab or if he's stuck in traffic.....I call the driver on the radio and ask for an ETA to the pickup.... THE DRIVER TELLS ME HE'S ON THE WAY TO EWR!!
REALLY?!!?
Where's your customer you ****tard?
DAMMIT!

Can somebody explain this strange phenomenon to me? Not a single week goes by when i don't drive over a solitary sneaker laying in the middle of the road. Last night alone i passed by two of these lost loafers! Sometimes they're a running shoe without the runner, but could equally be a business shoe without the business man.
So what's going on here? Are people leaving home with their footwear on the roof of their cars only to have their favourite flip-flops go sailing off on the first bend they take? Are moped owners arriving at their destinations only to find that they are one plimsoll short of a pair?
Has anybody here mysteriously lost one half of a nice pair of pumps during their journeys on the road, perhaps stepping out of the car wondering why their stocking clad right foot just took a soaking from that puddle?
Is it the aliens...?

Sounds perfectly plausible to me. I'm thinking Invisible people/Aliens/Government conspiracy, in that order right now, until i hear a better theory!
m1l4droid said:
How about this, an invisible race of aliens, that for some reason can't walk on earth unless wearing human shoes. They are wide spread around the globe, and all governments are "Putin" place by them. But they still roam the streets with human shoes on and stand perfectly still as a human approaches to create mass confusion and then laugh at us!

One legged invisible Aliens though. The shoes never appear in pairs!
Here's the photographic proof. Bear in mind that once you've seen a random shoe in the road, you can't stop seeing them!

this is probably another apple marketing strategy since iphone 5 is comming up,
mental note: bring another pair of shoes incase of alien abduction, and beer, more beer
People! Come and take your freeeeee shoes!

What if they jump around on one leg because they lost their other shoe on the road!!
By jove, i think we've cracked it!*
* I'm not entirely ruling out any involvement with the Apple mob. They might be working with the Aliens.
where is my f* shoe?!
There's two types of person in the world. One who wonders why there's random shoes in the road, and one who leaves random shoes in the road.
I regularly go to charity shops and buy shoes, preferably very distinctive or colourful ones, and then place them at either end of a county. It's a hobby of mine.
Trolling. If you're just doing it on the internet then you're doing it wrong.
of course apple is with the aliens its obvious,
even wallstreet journal knows that,
the shoe thing was a gimmick to hook you off

Mystery solved/case closed. Now we can wonder about the more important things in life like, for example, is Justin Bieber an Hermaphrodidic species of Alien sent from the far reaches of the Galaxy to inflict torture upon the ears of the human race.
m1l4droid said:
that's not true. Justin Bieber is a government constructed robot, in order to control humans, by either making them follow him like sheep or drive them into insanity, with his monstrous voice.

In all honesty.. I have wondered about the shoe conundrum for several years.. did surveying for quite awhile and have walked down lots of roads and interstates and always was baffled about the 1 shoe issue..
Insanely enough though.. I can top a shoe sighting..
