not sure about this but if you also exclude slaves and women, doesn't greece qualify?

you're from britain so you can't know but i think it's a big enough sports event to keep american NG members away from their computers and in front of their TVs

ok there's probably a club/crew handling this, but putting it up in the general board will make it easier to access
and considering that most NG users are american males, there's got to be a lot of football fans in here and draft day is a big thing
so any comments about the draft? post it here

me, i see my raiders taking ruud at 26 spot, we need a LB (well we need a defence , but LB is really urgent)

no, i'm 17

but if it makes you feel good, do it, it's not like somebody cares

i can still see it , it's just you i think

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- An attorney says he plans legal action against St. Petersburg police officers who handcuffed an unruly 5-year-old girl after she acted up in her kindergarten class.

A video camera, which was rolling March 14 as part of a classroom self-improvement exercise, captured images of the girl tearing papers off a bulletin board, climbing on a table and punching an assistant principal before police were called to Fairmount Park Elementary.
Then it shows the child appearing to calm down before three officers approach, pin her arms behind her back and put on handcuffs as she screamed, "No!"
Largo lawyer John Trevena, who provided the tape to the media this week after obtaining it from police, says the officers went too far.
"The image itself will be seared into people's minds when you have three police officers bending a child over a table and forcibly handcuffing her," said Trevena, who represents the girl's mother, Inga Akins. "It's incomprehensible ... There was no need for that."
Police declined to comment, citing an official complaint by Akins that has sparked an investigation by the supervisor of the four officers who were present. Two are new officers who were being trained that day.
Spokesman Bill Proffitt said the investigation would be complete in about two weeks and the findings would be made public.
The 30-minute tape shows assistant principal Nicole Dibenedetto trying repeatedly to calm down the girl, who ignores her commands and begins punching her. The child's mother was called but wasn't able to immediately come to the school.
After being placed in the back of a police cruiser, police released the girl to her mother after prosecutors informed them they wouldn't bring charges against a 5-year-old.

ok i could not access NG for days( ans some friends of mine couldn't either) and now it miraculously comes back up and it looks as if it was never down

any explenations?

i just realised something, tom can't vote!

he's not in the top 2000!

that's kind of weird lol

well maybe not here's what tom said recently

"Jose and I are also working on another long awaited project, that I no longer talk about anymore because I don't want to tease anyone (although I guess I just did)."

ya never know!

i have respect for everybody that is at level 10 cause getting to 9 is easy but getting to 10 is a monster , you have to be really commited to get there anyway i'm about 3 months away from it

your relegions reflects who you are, and who has the right to tell you who or what you are? and if people don't like that it's their problem, thats persanally my opinion on the matter, many muslims were kiked out of school because they refused to take of their turbans down, and every body has differeces, thats what makes the world more interesing

well in fact not many people were expelled , really, not a lot at all,

and remember it's only in public buildings,generally schools, i've seen lots of girls go to school and take there turban off
your religion reflects the way you are but you don't need to exibit,it's not because you wear a turban that you're muslims,religion is much deeper than that
don't you think that from time to time we need to put our differences away to live in society?
finaly one of the most famous cases didn't involve muslims but catholic nuns who were asked to wear normal clothes when entering a school,so again this does not favorise anybody

shouldn't there be a little trophy that goes in the submission like for top 5 dayly and weekly

sambakza can't speak english he might not know he won in which case LF could end up getting the money

yep i wanted papalote to be in there instead of a new bunny

but i still got 4 out of 5

but i ncan't vote so it doesn't matter

A) The education is run by the state, therefore making it a subset of the state anyway
B) It's not the state that is enforcing any religion when kids wear religious symbols to school, and just removing symbols will not remove their beliefs.
C) Did you even read the news about this a while ago? It actually WAS because of violent incidents.

Anywho, let me use the greater harm theory to explain this situation in those terms.

But first, I'll explain what it actually is. The idea is that if the harm to society because of a specific person's freedom is greater than the harm to the individual if that right was limited, it is considered reasonable to limit that person's right.

Now, in this case, the question is a matter of a person not being able to wear a religious symbol, or a person being allowed to wear that symbol, but having to get into a fight with another person over wearing that symbol, but the person defending themselves (I'll use Sikhs again, because it was a popular example with a number of incidents) may be wearing a knife as a religious symbol. This is bad, because if a person is defending themselves against an attack caused by religious hatred, and they have a knife, someone is likely to end up cut or stabbed.

On the other hand, this was a blanket decision that covered ALL religious symbols, nto just ones that incited violence, and it also covers people who wore those symbols but weren't involved in any sort of violence having to deal with it.

In other words, they limited a right of expression to pretty much everyone in the school system, in order to prevent a few fights.

Of course, what really happened was the government doing damage control because a few of these stories got leaked to the media, and they blew it into a big "WHY IS THE GOVERNMENT ALLOWING THIS IN OUR SCHOOLS??///???" fiasco.

So, to sum up, the situation is this:
The government is limiting the freedom of all students by not allowing them to wear religious symbols, in order to prevent a handful of hatred-feuled fights.

I'll let you decide which is the greater harm.

fights,sikhs??????

first the one who complained about the law were muslims, we heard almost nothing from them

and it' not cause of violence (listen i'm french, i'm in school i should know) it's just a beleif that when in sociaty we need to put our differences away,we're all the same students,here to work, your religion is your private life and should remain private
and again you can still wear religious icons just don't exibit it (put your cross inside your shirt for example(which was already a common practice before the law))

also the state is competly separated from church

no "god" on bills, we don't swear on the bible in trials etc

ok the law says you can't ware any religious signs in any public office, but you're free to ware them everywhere else

all religions are = in front of this law, i don't see where we're doing something against freedom of religion since no religion is favored in this law

yep the hole in the ground is just for tourists (i'm french and i know nobody that has used it)

you have cheaper gaz but you consume way more than europeans so it comes out even

also, while i lived in the US i knew kids who were home schooled and worked in the field at 8 with their parents! (in 2000!) you would never see that in france

if you listen to an idiot he'll tell you mature people are idiots

must suck to be #2001 lol
