Re: Replacement Green Card

Of course, but it's annoying that I have to pay $200 for a replacement Residency Card, and by the time it arrives, I'll be in the process of paying another fee for the filing of removal of...

Replacement Green Card

Earlier in the year, I lost my wallet which contained my Permanent Residency Card.

In June, I applied for a replacement card, but never received a receipt letter.
In July, I received a letter for...

Re: British culture in LA?

I have absolutely no desire to meet any English people! Sorry if I gave the wrong impression. I wasn't suggesting that I couldn't find them, just that they stay very localised. I know exactly where...

Re: British culture in LA?

My point is simply that for all the talk of Los Angeles being chock full of British expats, unless you live in a handful of very select neighbourhoods, you'll never see any of them.

Re: British culture in LA?

There's supposed to be some crazy and quite unbelievable number of Brits in L.A. From what I can make out, the vast majority of them are, just like you, holed up in Santa Monica or similarly...

It'll never happen. There'll be a black woman as President before an American walks to the market.

Re: Those Poor People Affected by Hurricane Katrina

Perhaps the problem is that too many people, instead of actually acting, are arguing over just who's job it is to do so. I don't think many people, Democrat or Republican, really care who's legal...

Re: Those Poor People Affected by Hurricane Katrina

I think it's reasonably fare to say that Bush could have spent a few billion dollars trying to tackle the near-crippling poverty in some areas of the country instead of on waging a private vendetta...

Re: F-word all right in U.K. school

When I was a teacher in secondary schools in the UK I had no problem at all with the kids in my class swearing. 9 times out of 10 they are doing to shock you and test your reaction. After the first...

Re: What is up with UK sentencing - again

You would go to prison for a very long time as you had clearly spent considerable time planning the execution of an individual who had legally served his time and theoretically paid his debt to...

Re: What is up with UK sentencing - again

I honestly don't know, and I hope to God I'm never in the position to know. But I DO know that the justice system is supposed to be governed by reason, not emotion, and hence the tendancy to keep...

Re: What is up with UK sentencing - again

Explain to me how a 13 year sentence has any baring on an increased murder rate.

Research done by the Scottish parliament shows that the average man is convicted of murder at 18 and serves an...

Re: What is up with UK sentencing - again

I just don't believe that something being legal or illegal has, historically, been a very good indicator of what is right or wrong. Simply because an atrocity is legal, does not mean that it is...

Every country has it's problems and every country has it's cretins, but the UK seems to be breeding a particular kind of mindless, antisocial imbecile, and at an increasing rate. Rather than just...

Re: What is up with UK sentencing - again

Unfortunately, it's pretty common. When I worked in Hull there were entire estates that buses refused to drive through because they would be attacked by kids (and adults) with bricks. It was common...

Re: What is up with UK sentencing - again

Exactly. Pointing out that prison is a proven failure and zero deterent is not remotely the same as saying murderers should walk free with a few harsh words.

Re: What is up with UK sentencing - again

The number of hours one is locked in a cell is really not that relevant. It just annoys me when people seem to assume that 10+ years in prison is an easy holiday. It's not, as anybody who has spent a...

Re: What is up with UK sentencing - again

Thirteen years...that's the time from when I left secondary school to now. Seems like a pretty long time to me to be banged up in an 8 by 12 cell for 22 hours a day. I'll love one of you conservative...

Re: More FFS this time with healthcare

Everyone I know in the US spouts the old 'Fiscal conservative/social liberal' line. They invariably mean that they have no problem with gay marriage, evolution and immigrants, want inner city schools...
