I don't really have a problem with the law. If a private business doesn't want to serve someone, that is their right, just like it is the right of the customer to shop somewhere else, to tell others to not shop there, to boycott the business, to set up their own business, etc. Don't get me wrong, it would be an ass hat move for a business to deny service, but they are the ones losing out in the end by turning away potential business. Realistically, how many shops would ever actually use this law? My guess would be only a handful of small businesses at most, and who would really want to give them money anyway?

Freedom is a two way street, it applies to both the customer and the business.

Most likely it will end anti-climatically when Russia pressures Ukraine into giving eastern provinces more regional authority and causing enough political instability and economic uncertainty in Ukraine to prevent them from Joining NATO or the EU, ensuring Russia stays as the de facto regional power. It is incredibly unlikely that Russia will ever directly engage in armed conflict with Ukraine, or this escalating far from where it is now. As for the West's response to Russian involvement in Ukraine, it is a wasted effort. Sanctions do nothing to hurt the political leadership, and only harden the resolve of Putin and his people because the West is being proven to be everything Putin says they are, meddlers who seek to hurt Russia.

All Quite on the Western Front (Erich Remarque), Enemy at the Gates: The Battle for Stalingrad (William Craig), and Shake Hands with the Devil: The Failure of Humanity in Rawanda (Romeo Dallaire) are some of my favorite war novels.

If you are including fiction, The Forever War is one of my all time favorite novels.

@dylandr: When I made my account I was a big Tom Clancy fan and had just finished reading Red Storm Rising, and thought it was the greatest novel ever. It was a dark time :P The avatar is just because I like the Alien franchise.

Bravo,very smart and mature statement from what??? 9 year olds.The three of you should act your age,not the size of your little p*nis's.The guy what's some advice,not comments a couple of grade school kids would say.

Chill out bro. The guy shouldn't need advice, he is a grown man who owns a house, he should be able to figure this out. Besides, several people have already given reasonable advice as to what he should do (ie. talk to the neighbor or file a noise complaint), does he need me to say it for the 20th time?

Also, by the level of your grammar, I wonder if its not you who's 9 years old.

I'm not a fan of the hipster/hobo beards that have become so trendy. I have no issue with facial hair, but once it becomes ratty and swallows your face, its gone to far.

@themajormayor: You obviously don't know what you're talking about. Queen started out as a largely fantasy-themed metal/prog band, often cited as a precursor to thrash metal. Then they moved onto the dad rock from the mid-late 70s that still gets the radios, then pop and R&B in the 80s. To deny their music is diverse is to plead complete ignorance.

It is not diverse in quality. Most is sh*t.

Define "shit".

Queen. Freddi Mercury's amazing 80's mustache beats Robert Smith's scary Joker face any day. Also, people saying that Queen sucks or their music is bad are plain retarded. You can not like them, that's fine, but you cannot deny Mercury's vocal skill or the band's abilities.
