What you describe is all too frequently the truth, but there are also some deadweight instructors out there. My biggest handicap is that sometimes the hole in the front of my head operates a tad bit faster than the grey matter contained within.

If I had the money to pay for it, pretty much anyone. Most people I have met are reasonably conscientious when packing, and I fucking hate packing. My biggest handicap is that sometimes the hole in the front of my head operates a tad bit faster than the grey matter contained within.

Well thanks for telling me this now. I was actually not able to jump for a couple of days and I was worried I might have actually damaged myself (pelvic region in general was fucked up) My biggest handicap is that sometimes the hole in the front of my head operates a tad bit faster than the grey matter contained within.

Yes. I naively beleived that because I wasn't jumping zero-p that there should generally be no major pain (if you look at my # of jumps you will see that I am at the bottom of the experience totem pole and still have much to learn). I am telling you though, this felt like I had bungee jumped with a steel chain. I didn't even want to do any turns because I was in so much pain I did not want any additional pressure against my body. Hammered into the ground on landing because I was so afraid of flairing (thus causing more pain) that I did the weakest flair in history.

Uuhhmm......to the best of my knowledge. I do. I've never heard of this (granted I have never studied law). If you are a lawyer I will skeptically take your word on this but if you are not, I wouldn't mind a second opinion. Not trying to sound confrontational but is this legal fact or is it opinion?

In my experience it is not an accident when someone confuses the two. They usually know exactly what you are saying. When debating illegal immigration, the easiest approach for the pro side is to confuse the issue between illegal and legal immigrants. This accomplishes two things; 1: By detailing the contributions of legal immigrants they can justify illegal immigrants by attributing the gains from legal immigrants to illegals. 2: By constantly blurring the distinction between legal and illegal it is easier to paint you as anti-immigrant and shoot down your arguments thus putting you on the defensive. You can make the distinction a thousand times yet to no avail. This is how the straw man argument becomes so effective in this case.

Beleive it or not, no. I would have felt wrong doing that. To me that's just like when someone goes to their professor after they get their grades and asks if he can "help them out" with their grades because they are trying to get into a certain program. Ive never done it. My biggest handicap is that sometimes the hole in the front of my head operates a tad bit faster than the grey matter contained within.

If you do not like a law then you as a voting taxpaying citizen have every right to protest it until it is changed, but until it is you still have to abide by it. While I sympathise with your freinds who base jumped they knew they were violating the law and were responsible for their own actions. If Americans feel so strongly about needing mass intakes of immigrants then it is their right to demonstrate in support of it. If foreigners dislike US laws then I suppose they also have the right to protest those laws at the US Embassy/consulate in their own country. Protesting while breaking the law and making demands to make it easier to break such laws does not sit well with me. It would be like burglars going out in mass protests demanding to eventually be allowed to keep the proceeds of their dishonesty (much like illegals demanding amnesty).

I have never in my life made demands that a government accomodate me while breaking a law. For that matter I do not break the law (to the best of my knowledge). When have you demanded accomodation for illegal activity? My biggest handicap is that sometimes the hole in the front of my head operates a tad bit faster than the grey matter contained within.

They should offer higher wages to teachers (to entice the best and brightest), and eliminate tenure (get rid of deadweight like that teacher) and you might see some improvements, until then, hire a tutor or seek private schooling.

Excellent idea. They might then have to offer a liveable wage to citizens. Another excelent idea. Imagine expecting a new arrival to actually have a plan. Yet strangely they do have the balls to protest and make demands. Funny, I am not anti-immigrant, and I suspect you are not either but because we do not cow-tow to political correctness on those who break the law we will undoubtedly be accused of being anti immigrant. Odd how that works My biggest handicap is that sometimes the hole in the front of my head operates a tad bit faster than the grey matter contained within.

Perhaps the people employing the illegals would have to offer a higher wage to get those jobs done. This might offer incentive to those who are low skilled workers yet not working to get up and work. If I have to pay more for my vegetables so we can actually offer a survivable living to working class citizens then so be it. There are other ways to fight inflation without using illegals to undercut our labour force. Perhaps the increased tax revenue from people working in those jobs at higher wages (and paying taxes) combined with the fact that fewer of our own citizens would be relying as heavily on social services might offset some of the negative effects of having to pay a higher wage for factory work, gardenning or housecleaning.

I may agree that attacks on smell are uncalled for, and the terrorism argument is used gratuitously by anti-immigrant types, but the arguments pertaining to overpopulation, jobs, and wages do hold merit. This has been a topic of interest to me for some time and many of the studies I have seen suggest that there is a direct affect on wages, unemployment, standard of living,...etc if immigration (legal or illegal) exceeds what is required. As with any basic supply and demand scenario if there are more workers than jobs there is a lowering of wages. This standard of living effect will be compounded by the fact that mass amounts of newcomers will also drive up housing prices and use up a higher rate of social services. The net effect on the existing population will be a negative one. I really find this catch line overused and irritating. Most manufacturing businesses were started by mass hiring binges. This does not mean that firms should always be hiring in mass numbers. Same goes for a nations intake of immigrants. If they are not needed do not bring them in. When intake exceeds the required amount you have a transfer of wealth from workers to corporations.

Teachers stage fake gunman attack on sixth graders

Just because something was done when you were children does not mean it was OK. Even if you did come through. I have no problems with addressing real world issues with children as they are more capable of hearing straight talk about the real world than many may acknowledge; but running into a classroom telling children that a madman was coming to shoot them epitomised lack of judgement. They could have discussed the issue with the children and gone through practise drills if they really felt this was neccessary.

You bring up a valid statement of doubt. I have been looking in the news for further info on this but have not seen any. I wonder why if this happened as the story portrays, there hasn't been more coverage.
