From Man Who Insulted Muhammad, No Regret
LOS ANGELES — Fuming for two months in a jail cell here, Nakoula Basseley Nakoula has had plenty of time to reconsider the wisdom of making “Innocence of Muslims,” his crude YouTube movie trailer depicting the Prophet Muhammad as a bloodthirsty, philandering thug. Does Mr. Nakoula now regret the footage? After all, - Nakoula Basseley Nakoula, in first public interview, says he does not regret making film Innocence of Muslims, despite deadly protests it inspired across Islamic world; making of film is bizarre tale of fake personas and wholesale deception; facts presented by Nakoula, former gas station manager, methamphetamine ingredient supplier and convicted con man, as rock solid tend to weaken upon inspection.

When is the symbol of the mockingbird first introduced in to kill a mockingbird?
I need this answer!! Also I need:
Why does Atticus coneal his marksmanship from his children?
Answer: On Mockingbird as Symbol in To Kill A Mockingbird:
The title of the book is To Kill a Mockingbird, so mockingbirds must be important, right? But why? Let’s look at a few passages to try to figure out some answers to that question.
Mockingbirds first appear when Jem and Scout are learning how to use their shiny new air rifles. Atticus won’t teach them how to shoot, but he does give them one rule to follow.
Atticus said to Jem one day, "I'd rather you shot at tin cans in the back yard, but I know you'll go after birds. Shoot all the bluejays you want, if you can hit 'em, but remember it's a sin to kill a mockingbird."
That was the only time I ever heard Atticus say it was a sin to do something, and I asked Miss Maudie about it.
"Your father's right," she said. "Mockingbirds don't do one thing but make music for us to enjoy. They don't eat up people's gardens, don't nest in corncribs, they don't do one thing but sing their hearts out for us. That's why it's a sin to kill a mockingbird." (10.7)
So, mockingbirds are harmless, innocent creatures, and killing them is wrong, because they don’t hurt anyone. (The same could be said for cows, but hamburgers are so tasty, while mockingbirds presumably aren’t.) But is this lesson so important in itself that it’s worth putting it front and center on the cover of the book? There must be more going on here.
Mr. Underwood’s editorial after the death of Tom Robinson doesn’t mention mockingbirds by name, but it does have a similar message.

If you in a public place and someone starts shooting and you have a gun but?
youre not legally licensed to own a gun and been turned down for mental problems (that you had as a child) but have guns anyway, but the person is in the place killing people at will and hes in range to shoot and kill to stop him from killing more people and yourself . if you shot and possibly killed him what would happen to you legally. meaning like would you be put in jail for defending yourself under those circumstances?
Answer: Kill the person shooting everyone. You don't have to worry about legality if you're dead. Save your life then worry about the law.

Why is there no outrage when Israel kills a nine year old girl?
Or was this childs life not as valuable as an Israeli life? Why did this child have her head blown off? Israel is really a sickening country. How can anyone possibly justify this. Its pretty obvious what Israel is going to say "the terrorists were hiding behind her", yeah sure we really believe you. This young girl and her family deserve justice.
I dont condone Hamas attacks, but in the last seven years the home made rockets have killed less than 20, Israel has killed more in an hour. If anyone knows different, give me a source.
Answer: It’s OK to kill a Jew if it’s a hundred or just one or two. Whether it’s a homicide bomber in a market or a car bomb in a schoolyard where they did park it. The act will get a slight mention on the mainstream news CBS, ABC or NBC you choose. Just shooting an Israeli settler now and then will at most just get a ten second mention on CNN. But don’t you let a Muslim woman cry or it will be transmitted to all the news satellites in the sky. The scene will be played on your TV over and over every day and the image will almost never go away. “They arrested my son” she will tearfully say, “and all he did was kill a few Jews yesterday”. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon will then demand that this Israeli aggression will not stand and must end soon! The French will then say Israeli oppression is out of hand. Hezbollah, Hamas the PLO will be given millions in compensation who knows where the money will go. The UN will need more money for a plan of relief so the US taxpayers fund them its beyond belief. So the message is clear on the national news. It’s really OK if you are just killing Jews
Southern Lebanon is another story; Hezbollah is there in all its glory. Children play indoors on Katusha Rockets with bright yellow Hezbollah flags tucked in their pockets. Automatic weapons hang on the living room walls and rocket launchers are hidden in the apartment halls. Israel planes better not bomb this innocent family of just children and a mom. They are innocent because the news media says so, no matter the evidences to the contrary don’t question them they just know. The innocent are not able to get out of the way because the families father has demanded that they stay. Islam is different but Americans are to dumb to know the wife cannot leave the house without a mans permission to go. I think it’s cowardly but the EU thinks its smart to stop rocket attacks on Israel you must blow the family apart. The press calls them innocent civilians and more even though Hezbollah fighters are standing at the apartment door. So now press reports it’s horrible, hateful, evil just to name a few, proving don’t kill Arabs but its OK to kill a Jew.

A little white kid with wings was shooting arrows at people today & the police returned fire and killed him?
2011 is a different day and age, have you ever thought about old stories that would end completely different in todays age? Cupid would be in a SWAT stand off very quickly and most likely shot to death if he didnt stop shooting arrows at police to make them fall in love.
Any other stories that you could think of?
Answer: Humpty Dumpty fell off a wall.....
and a team of neurosurgeons worked all night and put him back together again....of course he'll need reconstructive surgery....
Sleeping Beauty rescued from a year long coma by mouth to mouth....
Puss-in Boots....met an unpleasant end after the local animal control nabbed him and delivered him to the nearest pet shelter. opportunity lost...tsk, tsk tsk....
Hansel and Gretel.....reported parents for child abuse and neglect...ended up in foster care...the memory of pushing that witch into the oven haunted them for years until they became the first sister/brother serial killers, stuffing people into ovens...just to hear them scream.
Gingerbread man....taunted the wrong person, at the wrong time....he burned to a crisp after telling a little girl named gretel that.."you can't catch me..."
3 little pigs---hired a lawyer and sued the big bad wolf for stalking and harassment. big bad hires a public defender and goes to jail for 20 yrs without parole.

What is the name of the movie playing in the car wash scene in 10 Items of Less?
A little boy leans over, talks to and picks up a baby fawn. Its an older movie (1950s or earlier) I remember watching it as a child. Does anyone know what this is?
Answer: The Yearling (1946)
starring Gregory Peck, Jane Wyman, Claude Jarman Jr. (the boy with the fawn), Chill Wills, Margaret Wycherly, Henry Travers, Forrest Tucker
IMDb synopsis:
After the American Civil War, a former soldier and his wife become pioneer farmers in Florida. Their son, Jody, gets along well with his warm and affectionate father, but his mother is haunted by the death of her other children, so she's somber, even cold. The boy wants a pet. The father is sympathetic, but the mother refuses. When a rattler bites Pa, he kills a doe to use its organs to draw out the poison. Jody begs to keep the doe's fawn as a pet. The parents agree, and the boy and the deer are soon inseparable. The fawn grows quickly and, as a yearling, tramples tobacco shoots and eats the newly-sprouted corn. This is too much for Ma, and Jody has to face harsh, adult realities.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This is an amazing movie, so beautifully photographed! Even the TV remake is excellent, as is "Cross Creek", the movie about the woman who wrote the book, Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings. By the way, I've seen "10 Items or Less" a number of times during the past year, so I clearly recall which movie they watch.

Should Americans be concerned for our countries well being and welfare after the troops return home?
A study shows that 1 out of 5 troops suffers from PTSD. These unfit troops will most likely be taking jobs as police officers and other law enforcement positions.
Many troops will still have that shot to kill mentality implanted in their line of work...Does America really want unfit troops protecting and serving our communities?
Answer: your question really bothers me. Yes these fine men and women will fit just fine back into society. The high rate of PSTD is not only from the jobs they have done but the way they are treated when they come back home.
Lets say you were a Model, ok! Now you are really good at what you do and have done everything that was asked of you. But you go overseas for a photo shoot and while you were there all you hear on the news and public opinion as all been about "models" are low lifes and we don't support them and we don't want them back in "OUR country! You are sent hate mail and threats calling you names and judging your character. When you get back you are told how you are not supported and people spit on you. Now is that fair? No it is not.
Our soldiers do a wonder job in many different ways. Not every soldier has had to fire his weapon. Our soldiers do what is asked of them and they face hate from the same country they are trying to protect. It takes very special people to do what they do.
My son is one of those and yes he did come back with PTSD but not from what he had to do but with how he was treated by the people of his own country!!! He had a very hard time dealing with what was being said and how they were being treated. He is still in the National Guard and is also a fine firefighter for our City! It hurts a soldiers family to hear the hateful things that are said about their heros!!!
How do you think a 10 year old child feels listening to the news and entertainers calling their dads and moms murders and terrorist.
People really need to stop and think how many people they effect with the hate they spead. But then again that is way so many soldiers have died for this country, for your free speech!

What is wrong with the mentality of Iraqui and muslim people?
America may be over there containing the insurgencies but the Iraqis are blowing up and maiming their own people! Women and children at mosques and schools and shopping and eatting, what do these crackpots think they are doing? In the name of what and for what? America would not set off bombs and blow up her children no matter what invader were present!
Answer: That Q presumes that they have a mentality.Seems that they blindly adhere (that means 'follow' for you liberals out there) to the exhortations of whichever muttlah shouts the loudest.
And you are dead wrong about "Americans" not blowing away their own...invasion is invasion and collaborators MUST be killed wherever and whoever they may be.
I would not hesitate one second to shoot,stone dead, any American that even thought about aiding and abetting an armed invader of our country.
The time is not right yet,but that includes pro-illegal immigrant advocates..that too is an invasion by an unfriendly nation.

What do you think about this on general hospital?
Carly gets pregnant andCarlys baby wont make it. She is the person who gets caught in the violence this time it is a hit ordered by Sonny and Jason is sent to do it. You will see a parallel story of Carly losing her baby while Claudia is getting news that she is pregnant. Carly goes into a short coma and when she wakes up, expect her to lose it. Sonny and Jason will feel exactly like Claudia after that, and they realize that killing Claudia would make them hypocrites.
Answer: As someone who lost 7 babies in 6 miscarriages, I do not enjoy seeing them on the soaps, and Carly has had enough of them already, so I do not wish to see her lose any more babies...so I do not like your "what if" scenario. It's also not a likely scenario because Jason wouldn't take the shot with a child or pregnant woman present, unlike Ian Devlin. All of the mess could have been avoided if that man had an ounce of compassion, and just decided that he'd go after Sonny another day, when none of his children were in the vicinity. Even if he'd have made his mark, what would watching his father shot to death have done to a son?
No, there's been enough violence around the children of Port Charles for a while. How about some more realistic storylines that involve the hospital the show is named for? There was no better drama on television than Maxie, suffering from Kawasaki syndrome, receiving the heart of her beloved cousin BJ, and all the fallout that ensued. There are other ways to tell a dramatic story that don't have to involve guns and shoot-outs and ricocheting bullets.

What is the Muslims belief of what will happen to them when they die for their belief?
When they blow them selves up or if they get shoot in a battle what will happen?
Answer: Well, your answer is a bit complicated. If a Muslim dies as a martyr, then they go straight to heaven, and skip over the possibly fearful Judgement Day.
HOWEVER, we have to make it clear who is a martyr and who is not. The first martyr in Islam was a woman named Sumaiyah who converted to Islam, and was killed by her pagan slaveowner who tried to torture her into going back to idolatry.
People who murder innocent women and children are not martyrs. In Islam, the first person to be judged by God on Judgement Day will be a man who died in battle supposedly as a martyr. God will send him to hell, because the man took fought and died only to show off how brave he was and so he could be admired by men, instead of having any intention of serving God. It's up to God to decide whose deeds to accept and not.

Answer: The Virginia Tech massacre was a school shooting consisting of two separate attacks approximately two hours apart on April 16, 2007, that took place on the campus of Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University (Virginia Tech) in Blacksburg, Virginia, United States. The perpetrator, Seung-Hui Cho, killed 32 people and wounded many others before committing suicide. The massacre is the deadliest shooting incident by a single gunman in United States history, on or off a school campus.
Cho, a senior English major at Virginia Tech, had been diagnosed with and was treated for a severe anxiety disorder in middle school and continued receiving therapy and special education support until his junior year of high school. While in college in 2005, Cho had been accused of stalking two female students and was declared mentally ill by a Virginia special justice. At least one professor had asked him to seek counseling.

Are Catholic and Protestant the main denominations in the Christianity religion?
And all the rest off shoots?
All those thousands of others?
I want to be a Christian see so Im looking for the correct denomination! I wouldnt want to make a mistake and end up in hell.
Answer: Yes! If you have learned about the protestant reformation then you understand that all other religions that "worship as Christians" came out of the Catholic church protesting the infallibility of the Pope. The Catholic church refers to itself as the "Mother Church" for this reason. It gave birth to all these religions that call on the name of Jesus. It is not a coincident that they call themselves the Mother Church while the scriptures refer to them as the Mother of Harlots. You can make the argument that the Protestant religions are the right ones because they see the lies but you must investigate before you make that conclusion. All of these religions celebrate Christmas, Easter,Worship on Sunday,Eat anything,speak of Going to Heaven/Rapture,Prosperity and Wealth and many other traditions that can't be validated with scriptures. These people protest against the Catholic church but hold fast to the Catholic traditions. Every practice that comes out of what we call Christian, originated in Pagan Rome. The sad part about it all is that nobody knows yet it is documented in history and the Bible. Don't take my word for it though, you have to research all of this on your own or you may end up deceived like the majority of the world. The Catholics or should I say Romans are the 1st church but not of Christ. They are the mother of Harlots and all other religions claiming to be Christian are little harlots. Nowhere in the bible supports the replacing of Israel or a covenant being made with any gentiles. If you believe that then Jesus himself lied in the New Testament.
Isaiah 24:5
The earth also is defiled under the inhabitants thereof; because they have transgressed the laws, changed the ordinance, broken the everlasting covenant.
Psalms 68:11
11The Lord gave the word: great was the company of those that published it.
Psalm 147
19He sheweth his word unto Jacob, his statutes and his judgments unto Israel.
20He hath not dealt so with any nation: and as for his judgments, they have not known them. Praise ye the LORD.
Deuteronomy 4:32-34
32For ask now of the days that are past, which were before thee, since the day that God created man upon the earth, and ask from the one side of heaven unto the other, whether there hath been any such thing as this great thing is, or hath been heard like it?
33Did ever people hear the voice of God speaking out of the midst of the fire, as thou hast heard, and live?
34Or hath God assayed to go and take him a nation from the midst of another nation, by temptations, by signs, and by wonders, and by war, and by a mighty hand, and by a stretched out arm, and by great terrors, according to all that the LORD your God did for you in Egypt before your eyes?
Amos 3
1Hear this word that the LORD hath spoken against you, O children of Israel, against the whole family which I brought up from the land of Egypt, saying,
2You only have I known of all the families of the earth: therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities.
Hosea 4:1-2,5-7
1Hear the word of the LORD, ye children of Israel: for the LORD hath a controversy with the inhabitants of the land, because there is no truth, nor mercy, nor knowledge of God in the land.
2By swearing, and lying, and killing, and stealing, and committing adultery, they break out, and blood toucheth blood.
5Therefore shalt thou fall in the day, and the prophet also shall fall with thee in the night, and I will destroy thy mother.
6My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.
7As they were increased, so they sinned against me: therefore will I change their glory into shame.
Romans 9:1-5
1I say the truth in Christ, I lie not, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Ghost,
2That I have great heaviness and continual sorrow in my heart.
3For I could wish that myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh:
4Who are Israelites; to whom pertaineth the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the service of God, and the promises;
5Whose are the fathers, and of whom as concerning the flesh Christ came, who is over all, God blessed for ever. Amen.
John 4:19-22
19The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.
20Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.
21Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father.
22Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.
Romans 1:16
16For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
This is the protocol that Jesus set up not man. He teaches Israel and they teach everyone else. The same rules apply for all man and not even Israel is exempt from his wrath when they transgress the covenant(sin).A man must become spiritual Israel(submit to the laws of God)in order to be adopted into the family(church) Here are more examples that this is how it's suppose to be.
Matthew 15:21-24
21Then Jesus went thence, and departed into the coasts of Tyre and Sidon.
22And, behold, a woman of Canaan came out of the same coasts, and cried unto him, saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou son of David; my daughter is grievously vexed with a devil.
23But he answered her not a word. And his disciples came and besought him, saying, Send her away; for she crieth after us.
24But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
Matthew 10:5-7
5These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not:
6But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
7And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand.
Look at what the Apostle Paul says concerning this matter
Romans 11:1-5
1I say then, Hath God cast away his people? God forbid. For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.
2God hath not cast away his people which he foreknew. Wot ye not what the scripture saith of Elias? how he maketh intercession to God against Israel saying,
3Lord, they have killed thy prophets, and digged down thine altars; and I am left alone, and they seek my life.
4But what saith the answer of God unto him? I have reserved to myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to the image of Baal.
5Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.

What would happen if someone shoots a guilty person in court?
So I read a book called Life Penalty by Joy Fielding. The main character is Gail.
In the end, the person (his name was Dean) who sexually assaulted and killed Gails child was convicted of being guilty. As Dean was getting out of his seat, Gail shot him 5 times in the chest.
The book ended like that with the sound of applause from the courtroom.
What will happen to Gail?
How long approximately?
Answer: Gail would be arrested and charged with murder and possession of a firearm in a courtroom, plus others such as public endangerment, illegal discharge of a firearm, and whatever else the DA can think of.
What happens to her largely depends on the jury. Most likely, she would be found guilty of murder and all firearms charges. Sentencing also depends on the judge, but she'd be in for at least 15 years. Life imprisonment is possible if the judge decided that way.
On the flip side, the jury could use its right of what they call "jury nullification", which basically means that even though she is obviously guilty of a violation of law, they can decide to render the verdict of "not guilty" anyway, sparing her from any punishment. That option is used if the jury believes the law is unfair or being applied unfairly. They may feel the killing was justified and let her go - but it hardly happens, especially on a murder trial.
Hope that helps!

Have you ever wondered why nobody blow himself up in the name of evolution?
I mean if I burn the Origin of Species, nobody would come after me and blow himself up. If a teacher refuses to teach evolution and replaces it with creationism, nobody would want to kill him. He may get fired, but nobody would rig his car with a pipe bomb or something.
Answer: Having witnessed slavery aboard the HMS Beagle, Darwin didn’t like it, yet his ideas have been used to justify practices ranging from racism, colonialism, eugenics, and social Darwinism—which makes sense. If you don’t know about eugenics, you need to look it up.
Speaking of racism, Dr. Stephen Jay Gould, the evolutionary biologist, said, “Biological arguments for racism may have been common before 1850, but they increased by orders of magnitude following the acceptance of evolutionary theory” (Ontogeny and Phylogeny). Sin is ultimately the cause of racism, but Darwinism certainly fuels racist ideas (some people groups are more evolved than others).
And there are other things. When his fellow evolutionist, Jaron Lanier, said, “There’s a large group of people who simply are uncomfortable with accepting evolution because it leads to what they perceive as a moral vacuum, in which their best impulses have no basis in nature,” Richard Dawkins replied, “All I can say is, that’s just tough. We have to face up to the truth” (Evolution: The dissent of Darwin, Psychology Today).
If you teach kids that they are really just rearranged pond-scum and that they are simply naked apes, why are you surprised when they act like apes, and when they shoot up a school wearing a t-shirt that says, “Natural Selection”? Or shoot up a school after saying, “I, as a natural selector, will eliminate all who I see unfit, disgraces of human race and failures of natural selection.” Look those up.
According to Darwin, in The Descent of Man, morals came about through the same process of natural selection acting on random variations just like everything else. If that is the case, then everything you see in nature from maternal instinct (which we think is nice) to infanticide with mothers killing their children (which we usually think is not nice) were produced by the same evolutionary process. If your only standard is survival value, then who are we to criticize how someone is acting? It’s very hard to say one thing is good or bad based on Darwin’s theory. Those who are saying you can have Darwin and morality too (have your cake and eat it too) are not accepting Darwin’s account of morality—that all our behaviors and moral beliefs are simply the creation of unguided natural selection and survival of the fittest.
And why do we have hospitals? We should let the sick people die; we don’t want them passing on their genes. An atheistic evolutionist who is a medical doctor is really inconsistent. Eugenics is the correct application of that world-view.

What age can a child be named in a news publication without permission?
I remember being told that a newspaper cannot name a child (for example if theyve committed an offence) until theyve reached 18. Is that right?
Answer: I don't know the laws in the U.K., but in America, it's perfectly legal to name a child in a newspaper story without permission. However, most newspapers don't do that unless there's a very strong reason. For example, if a child is charged with a crime, most papers will not publish the name of a juvenile. If it is a huge crime -- such as shooting and killing students at a high school -- the suspect is likely to be named, even if he is underage.
Also, some newspapers publish things such as school honor rolls, achievements in Scouting, etc., and no one minds. Not to mention that if a high school student is an athlete, he or she will probably be named on the sports page, no matter whether they scored the winning goal or committed the error that led to their team's defeat.
