BUT you still missed the point. The jury could not subvert the rules and make a verdict out of nothing. The JURY followed the rules to a tee. There was no verdict to be had. It is not a flawed judicial system. The prosecution over reached...they tried for a verdict they didn't have the evidence for. You can't convict someone when there is NO evidence for the crime the prosecution say was committed. Does ANYONE know what REALLY happened? NO! I am not saying she is innocent. I am saying no one knows what really happened. Just because the entire world "thinks" she is guilty does not mean she is. I refuse to ever buy into gang mentality.

BTW, glad to see the Neutral side came in handy. It's been needed for quite some time.

While I certainly see where you're going with your comments I can't agree.

I see it as Justice being diverted by the incompetence of others. If what you say is true, then the others I refer to is the prosecution team.

I have a hard time getting around someone thinking an incompetent prosecution team resulting in what is likely a horrific ruling being classified as justice served for the murder of a little girl.

I've heard it said before that we have a flawed judicial system but that it's the best in the world. However, it failed miserably this time around and Justice was not served. A murderer was rewarded for having a strong defense team going against a weak prosecution that had little physical evidence.

Which by the way, ,means I had to vote neutral, because whoever wrote this one only saw black and white in this case.

You totally missed the point! Justice prevailed , but that does NOT mean she was innocent. The prosecution did not present their case...they did not connect the dots...1+1 did not =2 . So justice DID prevail in that the justice system in this country worked as intended. If their is no evidence of the crime submitted by the state, then the accused goes free. The prosecutor mis-charged...he over reached. Again, it does not mean she is innocent, it just mean she walks, and it is the State's fault, NOT the jury. They correctly looked at the states case, and the evidence submitted and correctly could not make a murder 1 charge. Quit blaming the jury, they were sick about it, but they were HONEST , which in today's world is a rarity.

What makes you think most scientists don't believe in a god? You think someone is "stupid" because they don't believe in your particular imaginary sky friend? Some might argue that those who believe in sky fairies might be a "brick shy of a load".

I'm forced to take a Neutral stance because frankly both may be inevitable. For one, we're already broke as a nation. We have no money as is proven each time the all noble FED orchestrates quantitative easing. And with the money we've already printed and wasted with the failed stimulus bill(s), bank bailouts, car company bailouts, etc... hyperinflation could be just around the corner. We're screwed nonetheless.

Shortly after Aug. the 1st, one of the two is gonna happen, hyperinflation means we get to pay even more and the other means we get to start over.

I've been on the fence a lot lately but this is a $300 question. I've read many differing opinions but still can't decide if it's worth the investment.

I've read that getting listed with Yahoo's directory just about cements getting listed with DMOZ and others which if true may be what makes it worth the money.

One thing is for sure, Google doesn't view a link from yahoo the same as a paid directory link of lower quality which Matt explains in the following video.



This video is from 2009. I wonder if Google's opinion has changed since then?

Here's some interesting video's.



Really? They just want to help people because they don't have any money? Really? Ungrateful!!!! You are given hundreds of free dollars you DON'T have to work for.

This one can't be embedded:

The great thing about these videos is that these thieves have been caught but how many thousands haven't been?

For the record I believe papa murphy's is take and bake but to me the fact that it's not prepared is irrelevant. It is junk food, period, end of story and WE are paying for it.

Let me start by saying the kids should never be disregarded because their parents are lazy trash, they should fed and have their health care taken care of. The parents on the other hand should not be given long term support for themselves and any welfare programs should be initiated in a manor that prevents the parents from taking from the kids for themselves. One thing I like about WIC is the parents are required to take the kids to dietitians to make sure they're getting the nutrition they need. This helps ensure the kids are actually getting fed and the parent's aren't taking it for themselves or selling their WIC vouchers for cash.

I also have to address the fact that EBT cards contain funds from things like child support which should never have been inter tangled with food stamps. Food stamps should function almost identically to WIC, there should be only a handful of items that can be purchased. Such as bread, milk, vegetables and fruit(canned and fresh), limited amounts of hamburger and chicken to keep welfare recipients from using the meat to feed their dogs (which they actually do). Next time you see a shopper around the first of the month with a buggy maxed out with 30 lbs of ground beef piled in with it you might want to ask if their starting a restaurant as one customer did at a local food city only to find out they weren't allowed to buy dog food on ebt so that's what they were feeding their dogs.

EBT shoppers can actually pull cash out of their card on a daily basis. This to me is unbelievable unless it's only being allowed for ebt recipients who receive external funds from child support.
