This is also a problem apparently in the horse industry, especially eventing and racing. Can't believe there is such a huge market for it underground but there is. It's not only a crime against the people who legally own the tissue, who now lost valueble material to theft, but pedigree papers...

If it meant that the killer would retain some vitality and youth as well, then the murder rate will shoot through the roof. There will always be someone who would want to live forever and see others as things to be used, rather than fellow human beings. If you just grow older and older I don't...

It's an accident waiting to happen, simple as that. Driving is dangerous in the first place, you need your full attention on what's coming your way and how to drive safely around any sudden events. How can you do that if you're greeting all 2000 of your facebook friends?

In my country, South Africa, the schools and hospitals are falling apart because they don't have funding. Yet sport events, political bashes and other things get millions spent on them. So I would funnel those funds into repairing the education and medical systems.

If the crime was a violent one, then I'd report my spouse. The reason for that is that violence tend to increase and happen again with regards to a particular form of crime, for example rape or assault. There is no excuse in the book to hurt someone like that, so I would turn him in.

That was definitely not a healthy reaction on her part, even if she was just really mad and out of control, why attack the cop? There really seems to be a growing trend of disrespect towards officers when the civilians are having a bad day.

Not really. I mean, yes, I'd feel uncomfortable should somebody press me for more personal details than I'm willing to share. That's just nosey and sometimes that person might have an alterior motive to just getting to know you. I'd get paranoid around such posters but not by just being on...

I simply love this thread! Keep adding to it guys. I loved the stuff not to say to a police officer. I guess cops hear a lot of strange excuses when it comes to drivers not wanting a ticket.

Hi I'm new, looking forward to explore what looks to be a very interesting forum! :cool:
