Does an illegal immigrant deserve the same respect as a legal immigrant/citizen?
Posted: 7/17/2006 5:01:48 AM
This has absolutely nothing to do with discrimanation!!!!

Dreams, what you described seems to be discrimination, but what this post is about has nothin to do with that. Why would it appear, if people want things done by the law, that they are discriminating? The laws are there for a reason. Why is it so much to ask that everyone entering our country respect that? Dont break the law? That is automatically losing whatever respect they could of had, should they have done it the right way to begin with

I am sorry that you got the treatment that you described, but these are 2 different cases here, and one has nothing to do with the other. People who are prejudice, are ignorant, we are not ignorant, to want the law abided by.

Giving respect gets respect. Plain and simple!

Do they respect us when they break our laws by comin here illegaly? I think not.

And to much of a surprise, alot of the illegals do file a federal income tax, all they have to show is their fake SS #

No matter how you look at it, they have broken the law, and don't deserve to be here.
They knew the circumstances when they fled here, so why should we feel sorry for them, if sent back they face prison time or whatever.

That is another thing that bothers me about it, and it really shouldnt, but it does- they send almost all of the money they make back to their families that are left behind in their country, to spend in that country. So how much is it actually helping the good ol' US by giving them the lower pay? The money doenst get spent here.

I do beleive that all people should be treated equally, but that goes for breakin the law as well.If they are here illegaly- THEY HAVE BROKE THE LAW!!!!!!!

As far as the language and the spellin go, well in all states the language spoken is different, just as it is in other countries. Different regions have different dilect. And well the spellin, some people might just do it because they know it bothers others, and some people might not be as fortunate as others to have the ability to spell, and then again some people might not have the ability to turn on the spell check on the computor- they dont deserve respect for thier opinion?

raped or not ?
Posted: 6/13/2006 6:53:41 AM
It does appear that the mom let this happen, by lettin her daughter go hang out with this man, but people if u think for one moment that u can control every thing that a child that age does, u better think again. Think back to when u were that age...... did u not do things that u werent suppose to do? I see alot of blamin goin on in these pages, but not of the one that actually commited the crime. Yes it is a crime, she couldnt of looked that much older for him not to have known that she was still underage, for gods sake he asked the mother if they could hang out with him, he knew what he was doin. So what if she thought she wanted it, she is not old enough to decide something like that. He is the adult there, and he knew it was wrong.

I do agree that her thoughts on it should be considered, if she feels like she was raped or not. After all its her that has to go threw with the whole thing, and endure the pain of it all.

I also understand that some guys get accused and they actually did nothing wrong. SHE IS 12 PEOPLE!!!!!!!!

how to date without confusing a child
Posted: 5/7/2006 10:52:10 AM
I see nothing wrong with u being here to find someone.

I do agree with most of the posts so far. When my kids were younger, they never met anyone that I dated. When they got older, they would put 2 and 2 together, and figure out that I was seein someone. They practically begged me to stop having 2 lives. So I would introduce them to my dates, and then go on my merry way.

Good luck to u with ur search. Always keepin the kids first, everyone deserves to be happy.

Posted: 5/6/2006 5:28:57 AM
I still feel the same way basically, maybe a little more irratated with the actions that are bein taken.

Are u going to get respected if u go in a store with a gun and hold it up? nah I wouldnt think so. Are u goin to get respected if u go in that same store, and steal a pack of gum? nah I wouldnt think so. They are breakin the law, and to give them a break, well isnt that telling them to go ahead and break the law? They broke the law to get here, so why wouldnt they break the law once they are here?

And for cryin out loud, our language is english, pretty much one of our own, but ours, anyway u chalk it up, so speak it. They can talk thier language amongst themselves, but when talkin with us, speak OUR language.

ANd the protesting? They dont show up for work, fire them. They close thier business', dont go buy from them. Could they do that in thier mother land? nah I wouldnt think so again!!!!!

How long before you would cheat??
Posted: 5/2/2006 6:44:18 PM
Marriage vows are a sacred thing, but so are promises to be commited to one person. Even if u find someone else to spend time with, doesnt mean that u would totaly give up on ur partner. I am not sayin that, I did say that I would love my partner and still take care of thier needs, but what about mine? As I said, we would of already discussed it, and with thier good graces, and probably years of waiting, then I would probably need some affection

Breaking Up vs Adultery
Posted: 5/2/2006 3:17:48 AM
Well my take on this.... speakin from experience...... Cheating is disrespectful in itself. But there is the throwing it in ur face, or tryin to hide it. For what ever reasons, the one cheatin will pick one of the two. To throw it in ur face, is very disrespectful. I am still very good friends with one of the men that chose to cheat on me. In the begining he tried to hide it, so that my feelings wouldnt be hurt, then after me investigatin his unusual behavior he didnt care, he throwed it in my face. After I confronted him, he was very honest about it all, and we decided to end the 2 year relationship. Durin that 2 years he was the best man that I have ever had. Besides the fact that he cheated on me, he took care of me, emotionally, and physically, and sometimes financially. He never told me that he loved me while we were together, but now everytime we talk, he tells me that he loves me. Purely on a friendship basis. I think that sometimes even tho u love someone doesnt mean that u belong with that person. I also feel like just because u cheat on ur partner doesnt mean that u dont love them, but there are underlyin issues, that are either the cheaters or the one being cheated on. If someone were to stay together, and it has been done, it would take long hard work, to gain back the trust that u once had. Then u still will never forget what they done to u.

How long before you would cheat??
Posted: 5/1/2006 8:02:58 AM
I do agree with when u take a vow u stand beside it...... but..... like I posted earlier on.....I would not want my special someone to sit around watchin my body being lifeless. I am sure that it would take a very long time to actually go out and find someone else. Its not all about the sex part of it. Even now I miss the touch of a man. Holding hands, touchin my face, even lookin at me with wantin eyes. U can not have that from this person if they are in a coma.

Waiting to see if they would come out of the coma, like I said, I am sure that it would take a long time for me to give up on that. I would never give up on them, as in, being there for them, and doin what ever neccesary to take care of them, and yes, show them lots of love.

The living will is what should be in effect here, and talkin about this before hand. If u love that person so much, you would have discussed this while they were of sound mind, and u would know what they would want. If they were to tell me that they couldnt bare the thought of me being with another in this curcumstance, then I wouldnt do it. But I dont see myself being with someone that would be that selfish. Yes I said selfish. If I were to tell my partner that if something were to happen to me like that and they better never have someone else until I die, I would be one selfish human being.

I agree lonte, I do congratulate those that could, and I have held out for a very long period of time, just because I needed to reform my own life, and ways of thinking.

U could hug that person, without a response
U could tell that person u love them with out a response
U could give that person a kiss without a response

Or u could live on the memories of what u did have, because no matter how u chalk it up, they are gone, just a body there waitin to get tired and pass on, and be gone with the soul that has already left it.

I would say that anyone can say what they might think they would do, but until ur in that position, u never know. That would be the case with alot of things throughout life. Dont ever say never, cause as sure as u do, it will be something that u will do.

Not really knowing because I havent been in those shoes, but I would say that I would not want my partner to dwindle their life away waitin on me to die physically. I would alreay be dead emotionally. I know that he would still love me and wouldnt want him to divorce me for the simple fact that he would be in control of my situation. I loved him and trusted him to be with him when I wasnt in a coma, so I would trust that he would see to me in the proper way.

With that being said, I would do what felt right. I would like to think that he wouldnt want me to dwindle my life away either.

raped or not ?
Posted: 4/29/2006 4:30:22 AM
U did the right thing........ no one is responsable for thier actions but themselves. The mother chose not to tell the husband, which I dont know why that would be a reason for divorce to begin with, whether the child consented or not she was raped. God bless ya while u go threw this with this child, and dont leave her, stay by her side.

Posted: 4/28/2006 5:25:02 PM
^^^^ u defined rape urself in ur post!!!!! It was posted that she was under the influence of alchol and drugs.

Doesnt matter if she willingly gave it to him, he fed her alchol and drugs, and he is a grown man, she is still yet a child. He knows/knew better than to have sex with a child. Would u feel the same way if it was ur child?

I do understand where u are comin from and if she wasnt 12 and maybe she was 15 or 16 then I would maybe feel u a little more about what ur sayin. Yes kids do mature much faster now, but any way u cut it she is a child.

Im not tryin to pick on u here, but think about the age.

raped or not ?
Posted: 4/27/2006 5:44:38 AM
Ok I have to say that after reading all of this and havin first hand knowledge to it, I had to post.

In KY, I know for sure, part of the "legal" definition of rape is feedin alchol, or mind altering substances for sexual acts. The age of 12 is not a consentual age anywhere u look.

Kentucky sucks!!! I can say that because I am from there, and have lived through this. At least where I am from, small town, they do what they want to do. In my case, I was told that they were offering a plea, and would like our support on it, but if we didnt support it, and he took it, so be it.

U can say all u want about the pointing fingers and whispering bein nothin compared to what this guy deserves, but in the small towns, it could be detrimintal to a child....more so than not pressin charges, and seekin counseling. At least then no one in the community could cast thier judgement on her.

Yes they would do that...sayin "oh the little slut got what she asked for" etc....

Now I would very much like to see his ass rot in jail, but in most rape cases, unless a plea is there, they get probated. Yes that is right, probated. Remember I am talkin on what I was told in the good old state of KY. And if he does go to prison, they will keep him out of the general populous because they will give him back what he gave. They (the rapest) have more rights than the ones that went threw all of the suffering.

If I had it to do all over again, I would of let the street justice commence, and served my time with a smile on my face. And knowin that my daughter was justified.

Large study had Christians pray for heart-surgery patients
Posted: 4/19/2006 5:07:39 AM
God allowed those folks to have the surgery, and to live threw it. Plain and simple. God answers all prayers, maybe not like we would want him to, but in a way that he sees fit. The more u believe, the stronger ur prayer is heard. U dont even have to believe for it to be heard.

If ur not a beleiver, I understand that its hard for u to concept it at all.

I agree that u dont demand GOD of anything!!! I would be scared of the out come of that. U might not see it for 10 years, and U might see it in 10 min.

FAITH!!!! that is where it all lies!!

Nuvaring
Posted: 4/18/2006 6:02:38 PM
My daughters doc was showing her this a few months ago, and I thought it to be better because she wouldnt have to remember to take a pill everyday.

The insertion that he showed her was to empty out a tampon applicator, and squish the ring together and put it in the applicator, and then insert the ring the same as u would a tampon.

How would you want GOD to prove it exists?
Posted: 3/30/2006 7:03:19 AM
The fact that we alll live and breath ( the air that God made) is proof enough.

With that being said, only the ones that choose to believe, will believe.

It is faith!! It is having him in ur heart!!!

It is very hard for some folks to imagine something. There are some people out there that has to have proof for everything. For every action, there is a reason, etc.

I, myself believe because I have felt it. Simple enough.

I came across this riddle and I have racked my brain tryin to figure it out. I dont know the answer, and I havent looked in the bible to try and get the correct one. Any guesses????

Adam, God made out of dust,
but thought it best to make me first.

So I was made before man,
to answer God's most holy plan.

A living being, I became,
and Adam gave to me my name.

I from his presence then withdrew,
and more of Adam never knew.

I did my maker's law obey,
nor ever went from it astray.

Thousands of miles I go in fear,
but seldom on earth appear.

For purpose-wise which God did see,
he put a living soul in me.

A soul from me God did claim,
so when from the soul had fled,
I was the same as when first made.

And without hands or feet or soul,
I travel from pole to pole.

I labor hard by day, by night,
to fallen man I give a great light.

Thousands of people, yound and old,
will be my death great light behold.

No right or wrong can I conceive,
the scripture I cannot believe.

Although my name therein is found,
they are to me an empty sound.

No feat of death doth trouble me,
real happiness I'll never see.

To heaven I shall never go,
nor to hell below.

Now when these lines you slowly read,
go search your bilbe with all speed,
for that my name is written there,
I do honestly to you declare.

This puzzle was written by a lady in California in response to a offer from a gentleman in Philadelphia that he would pay anyone $1,000.00 who could write a puzzle that he could not solve. He faile to do so and he paid the thousand.

( the answer is one word, and appears in the bible four times.)

Happyland / Dramaville
Posted: 3/12/2006 5:50:51 AM
I personally think that it is all in the decisions that we make, but at the time they are made, were not thinking of the consequinces to follow. At the time were in happyville, ignoring the signs that might be right in our face, because we are so happy. Then one day it hits ya and like above poster said, its life. The journey that we all have to live. I would be extremly shocked to know that there is an adult out there that has never lived in "dramaville" once upon a time!!!

Anti-black Racism in Religion!
Posted: 1/24/2006 7:21:48 PM
After reading all the post on this thread I have to share my views.

Jesus is everywhere, and can be anything of any form. He can be the homeless person walkin down the street on ur way home, he can be the the white man standing in line at the local soup line, and he can be the black man standing in the elevator that ur using. He is everywhere.

No one and I will repeat that no one knows what Jesus' image is. I dont have my bible handy, but it states that to see him would blind u. No one will know until he comes back to take all of the real believers home.

Real believers= persons that have him in thier heart, and believe that he is the alpha and the omega, no matter if ur a christian or islamic, or mormon, or budist. That is my take on what it takes to see our maker one day. And yes I also believe that Jesus, God, and the holy spirit are 3 as one.

I also think that there are still racist out there, not near as many as there use to be, but they run in all different colors. Whites, blacks, asians, latins, they all have prejudices.

can it get worse
Posted: 1/17/2006 5:50:45 PM
I really have to respond to this because it hits close to home. With out going into details, I have been and still am in a similar situation. There is always a flip side to every coin. I am not a perfect person, and really not a perfect mom, but in my opinion, if there is love and caring for the child on an emotional and financial level, who the hell is a judge to say that any parent isnt fit to have at least supervised visitations?

The courts are not always correct, most of the time they are not. I totally agree that its all about the money. I had a very good job, decent transportation, and two older kids, that were proof that I was the best mom to my ability. My kids have never went without food, clothing, or shelter, and most of all love and understanding. When we were in court, I, and every one of my witnesses were asked where I lived, and what kind of dwelling was that. It happened to be a double wide trailer. While her dad lived on a golf course with the rich woman that he married.

There were/are reasons that it all came about, but I went in that court room and told nothing but the truth, while havin to listen to nothing but lies coming from their mouths. I could not afford a lawyer at first, and was advised that I should represent myself, because the longer my daughter stayed with her dad the more apt the judge to rule for her to stay there. I am not innocent, but in no way, for the reasons they gave should my daughter have been took away from her mother. They tried to prove me unfit hahahahaha they couldnt get any where with that so they used the fact that I moved 3 times in 4 or 5 years to say that I was not stable and because her dad had been married for a year and a half and had the same residence for that length of time that he was stable.

I am a little upset with some of the responses here, not because i dont think anyone has the right to their own opinion, but because every case is different. Not one is the same, and to place judgement on this guy because he is asking for advice or venting about his problem, is showing me that there are alot of insensitive folks out there. I dont care who u are, and what it does to u, but just think about the kids, that dont deserve to be without thier parents. We have already made the kids, cant go back and change the fact of who their mom or dad is. If they are a scummbag the kids will know eventually, more so if u let them see for themselves.

Wake up people just because the court system is there doesnt mean that its perfect and always is in the right. The kids should be able to visit with their parents unless thier lives is in danger.

Nothing wrong with wanting someone to be themselves. If someone doesnt agree with me, then I would expect them to say so and not just bow down to every little thing that I want, or say. Happens to be a part of someones personality.

How do you overcome abuse?
Posted: 12/29/2005 8:23:05 AM
Yum Yum does raise some good points. I was raised in an abusive type home, and dont think that I am abusive to those around me. My ex that abused me was not raised in an abusive home, and he abused me, and the wife after me.

ON my part, I was determined to not have the same kind of household that I was raised in. Not at the ripe old age of 13-15 though. It occured to me after the birth of my first child, that I was indeed not treated as a child should be treated by their parents. The motherly love came to me, and that made my determination. But.........I was married to an abuser. I did get out before my youngest child could remember any of it, but my oldest does remember it, and resents his dad to this day because of it. The kids didnt get abused, and even through the teenage years still he hasnt abused them. Different circumstances lead to different things.

I also understand the aspect of they may not know anything any different, so they continue the abuse. It carries on with them because they havent been subject to any thing but abuse, so its all they know.

In any case, it does take time to heal, and u never get over it, u just learn to deal with it. To come to terms with it. Some counciling helps some it does not. It is dependent on the individual, I think. I didnt have counciling, I dealt with it on my own, and with a lot of people that loved me. ALWAYS trust ur gut. IT is usually right.

They have a skanky picture, looking for longterm.
Posted: 12/28/2005 7:15:59 AM
Thank you? I think!!!!!!

I do get alot of the emails about the cleavage, but when I posted that pic, I knew that would be what I got. I am not ashamed of what I have. Its no different than being out somewhere with the exact same clothes on, and someone making a comment about my cleavage. Which hasnt happened by the way. On the net people tend to be a lot more voicy about what they are thinking.

The abs and butt thing, well u could be right. It could be for a number of reasons though. I know that I wont even chat with someone for very long if they cant produce a pic of themselves. That to me would be more of a fake person, than those that post the abs and butt shots. Maybe they post them because they are sick of people asking what they look like, or because they are comfortable in their skin, or because they just want to get laid. Whatever the reason, if they post it, they do it because thats a part of them.

Very nice conversation starter

For myself, I am very comfortable in my own skin. If I am comfortable enough to post a "skanky" pic of myself, then I am comfortable being myself. Take me or leave me!!! It doesnt matter to me what anyone thinks about it.

Every one is attracted to different things. What u might find to be "skanky" might be sexy to another. Get it? Different strokes for different folkes.

When looking at a profile I always look at the pics first, thats what draws me in. There has to be an attraction, physically, or I wont even bother with readin the profile.

It takes all kinds to make this world go around, and that includes me and u, and the "skanky" pics!!!!!!!

Parents who hold their kids back

I have known families like this before, but I really dont think that its just a southern thing.

I think its just parents that have lived thier lives for their kids, every since they were born, and when its time for them to fly the coop, they dont know what to do with themselves.

Parents who hold their kids back
Posted: 12/26/2005 4:48:22 AM
My kids family from the other side is like this. It can be so aggravating. They dont come right out and say it, but like u said, its those remarks. My son is in the army now, and he graduated from a military academy. They all had a fit, and was very upset with me, especially his dad and grandma. They got over it, and now are very proud of him for what he is doing.

I have told them that they love so much, that they enable their loved ones to make a mock of thier lives.

Now I will have to fight them over my daughter, who is more influenced by their actions.

They will always be our kids, but they do grow up and have to make a life for themselves.

How do you overcome abuse?
Posted: 12/22/2005 4:58:34 AM
Cin I couldnt of said it better myself.

If u have never been abused, u dont know what its like. I do take resposibality for staying there, but like cin said, when they break u down. U start to beleive what they want u to beleive.

I stayed in one of those relationships for 8 years. I felt unworthy, and not able to support myself and my kids. I prayed. I phsyced myself out for the leave, and well 12 years later, here I am.

There isnt an answer to ur question. U are the only one that can know when ur ready to move on. And do becareful that u dont repeat the cycle.

Good luck to u, and congratulations for gettin urself out of it!!!

Why women always saying I didnt get mine
Posted: 12/20/2005 7:24:37 AM
OP u say in the begining that she was happy with it and now she is not. MAybe she lied in the begining and now she really wants to have hers. I dont come right out [most of the time] and say I didnt get mine, they should know, but I have faked it to the extreme that they wouldnt know. I refuse to do that now. It should be pleasurable for both not just one. If I dont get mine, I simply say u owe me one!!!! haha this is funny

I think it would depend on the two people as well. If ur comfortable with it, then do it.

Do people think about how it looks.....
Posted: 12/20/2005 4:56:45 AM
I understand where Sammy is coming from on this one, but I also see others point of view.

When things happen in ur life, it kinda makes u have a different outlook on things. Some take it to extremes though. IMO I think that kissing ur kids on the mouth isnt bad, took me along time to come to that decision, but my 16 yr old daughter helped me out with it. She knows the history, but she loves me and when she leaves me, no matter if its just for a few hours, she gives me a kiss, a quick peck on the lips, to tell me bye, and she always tells me she loves me. Its not always on the lips, sometimes on the cheek. But back to what Sammy is saying. I can totally see where some folks would take this the wrong way. More so if it was my son doing it, he is 19. I have made statement about it myself. So just know that there is always a flip side to every coin.

making change....
Posted: 12/19/2005 6:45:08 PM
HAHA this is funny

I have gave change back in both ways and never even thought about it really. I guess the next time I will pay more attention.

I agree that once the registers told us the amounts to give back there was no need to waste the time to count it back? I didnt realize that it would be a pet peave !!!!!

This is what Christmas is really about.

My family sends things like that to me all the time, getting where they get on my nerves. Send to so many people.
What ever happened to doing something for others, and let it be. Why couldn't she just give it to them with out bring God into it. They would of felt him with out her statement. The need to go brag and share. Why? Yes more need to do nice things for others, but she needed the praise are she would of done it, and let it be, and felt just as good about it. People like that, are why many are ashamed to get help. To share how great she was, they had to look bad, when she shared the story.
Sorry but them pass it on things get under my skin.

I think the reason for sharing it was because of the goodness and kindness that was done. I dont think that it was shared to get self gratuity at all. To share what GOD can make u see is anyones right. She had just as much right to share her experiences as you do sharing yours. I dont mean to come down on ya. I see that it gets under ur skin, but if u didnt like it, then u should of went on. Sometimes its best if u dont have anything nice to say dont say anything at all. Maybe it gets under others skin that there always has to be one in the bunch to make something good to share turn bad.

I personally think that it was a beautiful story.

ways you hurt your self.
Posted: 12/19/2005 6:02:30 AM
I once grabbed a cast iron skillet out of the oven with no mitt, the handle imprint was there for a long time.

Then slamming my finger in the car door, the door shut all the way, and the way I was standing made it difficult to open the door back up.

Good posts. They seem funny to me now, but not at all when it happened!!!!

Sometimes 69 gets on the end of my names because of the year I was born in. Not because its a nasty thought.

Just my 2

Ignore double post
Posted: 12/16/2005 5:35:36 AM
Thank you for the response Sparda.

OT I think that all the world can be the way u describe. You just have to weed them out and see who is true to heart, but then do u still really know? Its life sweetheart, the good, the bad, and the ugly. White, black, green, or blue.

I thought that I read you were dating a white woman, I may have read that wrong. Do you feel like she is using you? Usually ur gut will hold true.

White women
Posted: 12/15/2005 10:10:48 PM
Sparda I have a question for ya

I had a black man tell me once that he dated white women, because the black man looks at her as a trophy. A trophy for winning the woman over the white man. I was wondering if this is true?

I am in no way trying to disrespect here, I just want to know.

I personally think that everything that u posted can be true, but like another poster said, it has nothing to do with race. The preachers kids are going to date the gothic kids, just because dad said not to. See what I am saying?

This is a good post, and hopefully it wont get ugly!!!
