    Want to stop sale

    Exactly what does your (hopefully written) contract say about the deal was going to work and what remedy you'd have in the event of default. If the holding of the title is treated similar to a security interest in the vehicle you could take the steps necessary under your state's law to repo the...

    Biden drops out of the race.

    That I agree with 100%. I've said several times already that Trump hurts himself when he goes off script and just says whatever first pops into his head. He'd be a much more compelling candidate if he could just suppress the urge to do that. There is a saying that goes something like "it's not...

    Biden drops out of the race.

    You were implying that I would be wasting my vote (and thus shouldn't bother) if I vote for some alternative candidate. But it's not a complete waste. It wouldn't help Biden or Harris, but it would help the party I do vote for have an easier time in my state getting their candidates on the...

    Biden drops out of the race.

    Well said. It's not disagreement itself that is threatening the nation but rather the increasingly vicious and violent manner that disagreements are being expressed today. I support the right for anyone to demonstrate peacefully. If the demonstration become violent, results in destruction of...

    Biden drops out of the race.

    You are looking at the word prayer in only a religious context. That's understanable given that in our modern society people rarely hear that word used in any nonreligious way. But like many English words and phrases, this term has more than one meaning. The term prayer for relief as used in the...

    Biden drops out of the race.

    My hope is that no candidate is a threat to democracy. But Trump doesn't help himself when he makes comments like he'd be dictator for a day if reelected. He's used that line more than once. Sure, that might just be one Trump's over the top statements (that's his style after all) that he really...

    Biden drops out of the race.

    If you voted for the candidate you truly thought was the better person for the job and didn't just blindly vote Republican (or whatever other party candidates you voted for) then I applaud you for voting with some careful thought, even if in some of those elections I might have voted differently...

    Biden drops out of the race.

    Congratulations, Redemptionman, you've just mocked the value of voting in this country and staked out the position of a dictator: the public should vote for only one party (the dictator's party, course) and anyone who votes otherwise should be punished. Should we just tear up the Constitution...

    Biden drops out of the race.

    That's about as anti-democratic a statement as I've seen you make. The fundamental foundation of our republic is that the public elects its representatives, and every eligible person should be encouraged to get out and vote for their preferred candidate. Only one will win, but that doesn't mean...

    Biden drops out of the race.

    Hmm, you know very little about me but yet you proceed to make statements as though you do know what I do and what my thoughts are. That strikes me as similar to what you claim the Democrats do. It's easy in political arguments for people of any particular political leaning to do that sort of...

    Is Something Wrong With the Media???

    The answer to the title of this thread, IMO, is that there is a lot wrong with much of today's news media. The fast pace of today's news cycle coupled with newscasters and reporters who have not had a lot of real journalism experience has lead to the demise of some fundamentals, like rigorous...

    Biden drops out of the race.

    You seem to either have forgotten what happened on Jan 6 or are intentionally misrepresenting it to try to make your points. Your arguments are weaker for it. If you look back on what happened Jan 6, you'll that it was Trump that urged the crowd to go to the capitol building, with the goal of...

    Biden drops out of the race.

    No, not a coup. They didn't storm the White House, kick out Biden and install Harris as president instead. If they had, that would be a coup. Even forcing Biden to resign so Harris becoming president now might be described as a coup. They didn't do either. Biden remains the president and will...

    Biden drops out of the race.

    If the signature wasn't his AND he still wanted to be in the race, he and his staff can certainly say so. Indeed, he could show up at the convention and say that the letter withdrawing from the race wasn't genuine. I don't see that happening. If Biden and his camp don't deny that the letter is...

    Can someone get fired for calling in with a sunburn

    I think whether the ADA would apply in this instance would turn on just how severe that sunburn was. Some sunburns are very painful, damaging to the skin, and require some significant medical care. If I were that manager, I also wouldn't want to go down that road of arguing over whether the...

    Biden drops out of the race.

    Just the other day I said on these boards Biden would stay in for the long haul. He seemed determined to see it through. Clearly I got that one wrong. In the primary era party conventions have generally been snoozefests. No real drama, just a big party celebrating their nominee. This Democratic...

    Got scammed 765 dollars off Kickstarter from a company in Iowa.

    There are things may do. Reporting the fraud to the various law enforcement agencies that army judge linked is pretty easy to do and costs you nothing. That probably won't get you your money back, but it might help land the criminals in prison. You may try suing the operators of the scam in...

    Other Criminal Charges & Offenses Resisting arrest questions

    You don't have to be guilty of a crime to be lawfully arrested. If you resist an officers lawful effort to arrest you, you may be convicted of that offense even though you were acquitted of the charge that was the basis for the arrest. In Georgia, a felony resisting arrest crime is one in which...

    When you get married?

    The basic rule in the U.S. is that you are free to use any name you like so long as the purpose for doing so isn't to aid in committing a crime, evade law enforcement, skip out on your financial obligations, etc. As a result of this basic rule, there are a lot of people, particular those in the...

    Billable Hours

    The time that you spend researching the laws, etc, on your own legal doesn't entitle you to any money under the law. I'm an attorney and if I represent myself in a legal proceeding I don't get any money for my time either. Attorneys fees, when awarded by a court are compensation to a party in a...
