    All I know is that you deal a whole lot more in hysterical speculation than you do solid fact.
    All I know is that like CD you have never personally experienced a sore vagina after giving birth, sore breasts when the milk comes in, nor cracked nipples from feeding on demand.

      You're probably right -- that's about ALL you know, and it has nothing whatsoever to do with your bogus thread title or your obsession with rumors and speculation over fact.

      The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

        The charge was prescription fraud.






        Being charged with prescription fraud is a prosecution. And she is being charged with that offence because she took prescribed medication while she was pregnant and only told her doctor after the baby was born.

        Therefore she is being prosecuted for taking prescribed medicine while pregnant. The only omission in the article's title is the fact that she did not tell her doctor until after her son had been born that she had been taking that medication during her pregnancy.

        However, headlines tend towards gaining the reader's attention with the finer details being offered in the actual article.

          I'd get back to those livers if I were you.

            You finally got something right.

            Now, want me to correct the dishonest thread title for you?

              Misleading thread title -
              Honest thread title -
              Alabama is prosecuting a woman for prescription fraud.

              Just say the word, and I'll change it. Surely, you don't want to continue perpetuating a lie.

                Yes you can.

                First you tell the poster not to post in the thread. Obviously make sure it is a thread you started.

                Then report the post (hit the "flag" option) and include your reason.

                Generally it will be approved[1[. Recently one wasn't because the OP was kicking anyone out who disagreed with what they said. That's what blogs are for. This is a debate/discussion forum -- although a member can start a blog (same rules apply as posting here though).

                Finally, you can't keep addressing older posts by the person you kicked out, nor talk about them since that allows them to return and respond.







                1. keep in mind that we are generally short staffed and it can take awhile for a response. If it really is a problem, file another report

                  Your continued inability to comprehend and to totally misunderstand are duly noted.

                    Which is why I came back.

                        It obviously doesn't work.

                          Police are typically armed at all times. And cops often stop and check to see if they can assist each other around here. I imagine they do the same thing in Germany.

                          One of the times I got stopped two or three years ago for a broken headlight, two other cop cars pulled up while she was running my tag and license. One even had two cops in it.

                          I mean goodness sake! That was four armed officers surrounding me for a broken headlight! Something that "never hurt nobody." I guess I should have had a bout of the vapors or something.

                            Have you ever had to serve a warrant, or search the home of a drug user?
