LOL

 

By the way according to the recent "dangerous dogs law", in France we cut a little higher those unregistered pittbulls....

 

:pirate::huh:

 

I am still baffled how she and others believe her "pitbull" comment is anywhere flattering or honorable... Nobody has explained that to me.

 

Is this supposed to be a badge of honor? I am sure pitbulls are very nice animals at times... But, the rest of the world has to be shaking their head.

That is "Whine"... check your spelling :cry: .... with McCain, I would have to say it "DEPENDS"

 

That's funny thread was to show the childishness of the whining from the left.

Just as long as my tests are negative.

Well coach, that leads me to the question of who is paying for your test?

WASILLA, Alaska — In 2000, Alaska lawmakers learned that rural police agencies had been billing rape victims or their insurance companies $500 to $1,200 for the costs of the forensic medical examinations used to gather evidence. They quickly passed a law prohibiting the practice.

According to the sponsor, Democrat Eric Croft, the law was aimed in part at Wasilla, where now-Gov. Sarah Palin was mayor. When it was signed, Wasilla's police chief expressed displeasure.

 

Do we see a debate issue for the VP debate?

 

In 2000, there were 497 rapes reported in Alaska, FBI statistics show. That's a rate of 79.3 per 100,000 residents, the highest in the nation.

 

Nationally, victims' advocates have for years reported scattered instances of rape victims being required to pay for their forensic tests, says Ilse Knecht of the National Center for Victims of Crime in Washington. Those complaints have subsided somewhat after Congress in 2005 passed a law requiring states to provide rape exams free of charge or reimburse victims for the costs, says Knecht, whose group supported the provision.

 

"The reason we passed the legislation was that we saw it was prevalent enough to be a pretty considerable problem," Knecht says. "There are no other victims of crime that end up being billed for evidence collection."

 

The Senate version of the legislation that included the rape-exam provision was sponsored by Sen. Joe Biden of Delaware, the Democratic vice presidential nominee. Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama was one of 58 co-sponsors; Republican presidential nominee John McCain was not.

Guess it goes both ways... not that there is anything wrong with that :thumbsup:

 

Seeing the whiny left has taken over the topics here of late it's been leaning quite a bit more that way.
