Some say hollow point bullets are prohibited by the Geneva Convention, others say they aren't. It's another thing that's proving very difficult to find the truth about. So I'm working on reading the Act myself. Just the little bit I've skimmed through so far has me wondering. Do the Geneva Convention rules not apply to the US? Because it seems we've violated a whole lot of the rules over in the middle east in the last decade.

It's disgusting SB. In just the little bit I have been looking into some of these things, I'm already to quit because it's very disturbing. I'd like to privately send you a couple links, if you don't mind, so you can see what our government knowingly did.

Do you even realize the impact those Wall Street "tycoons" and corporations have on this country? We wouldn't even be able to have this discussion if it weren't for corporations and investors.
This is the kind of brainwashed thinking that keeps us distracted from and mired in the mess we find ourselves in.
Why keep bailing these 'Too Big to Fail' types out? Surely, if capitalism was working as it should, left to its own devices, these corrupt bastards would fail, and new corporations and banks would take their place.
Trickle-down economics does not work. That has been proven time and time again. Too bad our diminishing middle class can't see that.
That doesn't mean I believe in the "too big to fail" policy or that I am ignorant to the fact there are some corporations and ceo's that have less than honest intentions.
I would like to think trickle down economics does work. If I am making more money, I am more likely to eat out which supports the restaurant industry and its employees. With out my money walking though the door, there wouldn't be anything to support the owner, who then supports its employees.
That's about as elementary of an example as I can use to describe what I think about trickle down economics.
Why are these starting to show up in Hometown, USA?
And why are military drills being conducted in so many towns and cities. These big military vehicles and even helicopters. Why now? They never did training on the streets of towns and cities before. Don't they have fake city type areas for training? Isn't the old style of training good enough anymore?

ANESVILLE — It’s not pretty but, hey, it’s free. The Janesville Police Department has scored a $38,000 used military MP1025 utility truck, better known as a Hummer, simply by asking for it. Janesville received the Hummer through a Guard program started in 1993 to provide surplus items to law enforcement agencies for use in counter-drug investigations.
In 1997 guidelines were amended to provide law enforcement groups with free equipment for any law enforcement need.
Ulmen said the Janesville Police Department already has dipped into the program well for items such as tactical gear, night-imaging equipment and weaponry — M-16 and M-14 rifles and .45-caliber semi-automatic pistols.
“Literally, you can get anything. Heck, you could get a helicopter,” Ulmen said.
It doesn't matter what anyone thinks about Lou Dobbs or Fox news, just listen to what he is saying. I wish they wouldn't be pointing fingers at only Obama and making this partisan, but just think about the other things they are saying.

Would you also like to believe in the Easter Bunny? Trickle down does not work. Greed takes over. Why do you think the top earners have seen such a enormous rise in profit while the lower is stagnant? Are you even paying attention?
