THE TRUE FACE OF ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION

I believe one of the reasons that the anti-immigrant feeling is so strong these days is that many who oppose reform probably have never been around those 'menaces' long enough. Sure, you might see a Latino or Asian individual at work at your local market or restaurant, but how many actually have had the opportunity to make their acquaintance? Many would say no, which make the victims of xenophobia pretty much a faceless crowd. by Ernest Barteldes

WHY TORT REFORM IS NEEDED
The United States Cannot Afford this judicial mess

I walked over to the Staten Island courts for jury duty, a thankless (in my opinion) obligation that every American citizen has to go through every couple of years. I woke up later than usual (since the courts here are just a few blocks away from my apartment) and at the appointed time I was at my seat, hoping for the hours to move quickly as I shifted between a book and this week's New Yorker magazine. by Ernest Barteldes

BBC “Spikes Holly” Greig Story

In the October 2009 print edition of the UK Column, we reported in our article "BBC Hides Truth of Girl’s Sexual Abuse Ordeal" the shocking ordeal of a girl with Down's Syndrome, Hollie Greig (photo: on the right), who was horribly abused by an Aberdeen pedophile ring, over a period of ten years. After investigating and planning a documentary, the BBC abruptly dropped the case, despite admitting that Hollie was a reliable and accurate witness. It is important to stress that both the police and qualified medical experts have described Hollie as a competent and entirely honest witness. -Click Here

TO NATIONAL SECURITY
by Richard E. Schiff
Now that there is at long last a man serving as President, who is African-American, these angry, gun toting, arrogant ignoramuses are not only threatening the President but threatening the Federal Government at the same time. Well, this is Treasonable behavior and nothing else!

Happy in the Poorhouse
Along with their difficult loves, these characters have dreams on the brink of being deferred. All of them are poor. Paulie still wants to make it as a cage fighter, even though he’s broken down and thirty four.

TWO TICKETS TO HAVANA, PLEASE... REALLY
by Ernest Barteldes
Today, any American citizen can hop on a plane and fly to 'rogue nations' like Iran or North Korea, provided he or she gets a visa to enter those countries. Even though they are part of what the Bush administration called 'the Axis of Evil,' there is nothing (legally) that this country can do to against you if you decide to do so. However, the same does not ring true in case that same citizen decides to spend a few days sipping mojitos at a Caribbean island just 90 miles off the coast of Florida. If you do that, you are breaking the law, and might suffer dire consequences if you go for it anyway.STORY

Fat Chance
by Melissa Beveridge
While passing by a local fast food restaurant, I saw an overweight child,around 12 years old,
bringing his tray to the table with his friend. Curious, I looked a little closer to see what this overweight
12 year old boy would be consuming, and surprise, it wasn’t a kids meal, hamburger, or even
French fries. This boy had a big salad on his tray....Then, his next action smashed my hopes. -nycny.com
