1 AnswerMilitary1 decade agoIf it can be shown that one did not have time to brake at red light, is that evidence?
Hello, someone I know got a letter in the mail after going through a red light at a photo enforced intersection. But this person can show, used the photos and video from the incident to show that he did not enough time to safely break before the light turned red, He was at the line just as the light turned red. I believe california law states to the effect, that the yellow light acts as a warning, basically, my question is, if you didnt have time to stop before the light turned red, do you still have to pay the ticket?>

will kill you?

And he also showed him a cartoon making fun of Muhammad. What are the chances of that particular muslim deciding to kill him? On a scale 1-100. ANd if you could give me a percentage point of the chances of him dying that would be good, Would it be like 50/50? Are muslisms really willing to kill people who criticize the qur'an or muhammad?

5 AnswersLaw Enforcement & Police1 decade agoWhat is a good story to tell that shows your ability to be a security guard?
I am going to a interview about a security guard job and I know I'm going to be asked: What experiences in your life have you had that makes you think you would be a good security guard? Despite the fact i have no security guard experience at all, I want to get the job, so if someone asked you that question, how would you answer? Why do i have to get these questions. I never seen anyone asking obama what experiences he's had that makes him qualified to be president. So, if someone could give me a good answer, even its about something that is fiction, that'd be cool. ty. goodbye

10 AnswersFashion & Accessories1 decade agoWhy is god the only thing we believe without evidence?
If I told you I believe elvis was alive, I would be laughed off the stage. But some people in society who say they have faith in god are praised and get elected into office. So why is that when someone claims that elvis is alive, people ask for evidence, but they dont with god? Why is religion immune to the normal skepticism that everything else is?
