    To sick to shoot up? Call a volunteer

    The idea is that if they are going to do it anyways, this way they won't OD and they won't get HIV. I don't really know what I think of it.

    'Cowboy' Bush failed in Katrina evacuation - Chavez.

    They don't have the money for that sort of thing. The Corps of Engineers, the federal organization that maintains the US' ports and waterways, has been saying for years that the levees in place were inadequate, but the New Orleans branch alone had their funding to do anything about it cut by 70...

    They could have at least listened to the US Army Corps of Engineers deployed in New Orleans responsible to protect the city from flooding and hurricanes when they told them the city was extremely vulnerable to a hurricane instead of, you know, cutting their budget by 70 million dollars.

    Is justice good?

    I personally think that justice falls in the same category as the restriction of liberties and violence and that all three things are frightening and terrible things. I would like to learn about other people's opinions on the subject. I will expain my rationale shortly.

    To creationists - how do you explain endogenous retroviral insertions?
