would you build the keystone pipeline even if it had adverse environmental affects?
I think if its hurting our environment then it's not that worth it, but if they can pull it off it could benefit us very much.

is the coach justified in suing the player? if not where do we draw the line with lawsuits?

I don't think he has to go to that extreme. He may have been injured, but it could all be an act for the lawsuit. He was supposedly fine until he got a lawyer.

I don' want to insult anyone's intelligence but I think there are many people who make bad examples for our community. I myself am not and never have been considered to be a "redneck" or "hillbilly" and I know these people and some may have their interests in country things and such but that doesn't make them stupid. I have met some poor excuses for human beings but that's everywhere. I have met very intelligent "country folk".

1. Do you think Russian security forces will be able to help keep the fans and athletes safe in the Sochi Olympics? I'd say they are capable of it, but it's very risky. I wouldn't trust it. I'd say they will move the Olympics to another location. Nobody can tell who has a concealed bomb.
2. In light of the recent bombings and terrorist threats would you go to Sochi given the chance? I wouldn't take my chances, I'm not interested in the Olympics enough to risk my life.

1.  Who has the right to decide if the 13 yr old has the tube or not?
I'm going to assume her parents or her closest relative.


2.  How would you handle the situation?
I don't know if I could put my child through that agony, because somehow a God could intervene and absolve all of her issues.
