ANY ITEM that looks like a gun will have to be licensed under several changes to the Weapons Act being considered by the Queensland State Government. Even guns made out of materials as unlikely as soap or plastic may have to be kept under lock and key if they could "reasonably be taken to be a weapon". The draft act says an imitation is a "reasonable copy" of a weapon that is not capable of causing death or injury. "If it looks like a gun and feels like a gun, it will have to be licensed," said a government source.

The Council announced Tuesday that it has invited local imams to perform Islamic invocations at the beginning of the Council meetings in September. Though meetings don't regularly begin with any form of prayer, an email from the Common Council called it "an act of solidarity with our Muslim brothers and sisters." The email even referenced the ongoing issue in New York.

The American Civil Liberties Union and other groups have filed a lawsuit challenging the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) practice of searching laptops and other electronic devices at U.S. borders. The lawsuit, filed Tuesday by the ACLU, the New York Civil Liberties Union and the National Association of Criminal Defense Layers (NACDL), challenges a 2008 CBP policy that allows border agents to search electronic devices of any traveler, without suspicion of wrongdoing. In some cases, border agents have copied the contents of the devices or confiscated them. The lawsuit asks the court for an order prohibiting searches of electronic...

That’s not in my prepared remarks, but it’s true.” Please…I wouldn’t say something so insulting to my dog....

Protesters of the proposed Islamic center near Ground Zero waved signs there this past Sunday with a single word: Sharia. Their reference to Islam's guiding principles has become a rallying cry for those critical of Islam, who use it to conjure images of public stonings and other extreme forms of punishment in countries such as Saudi Arabia or Afghanistan and argue that those tenets are somehow gaining a foothold in the United States. Blogs are proliferating with names like Creeping Sharia and Stop Sharia Now. A pamphlet for a "tea party" rally last weekend in Fort Walton Beach, Fla. asked:...

NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- Adam Goldstein was a whiz-kid MIT engineering student with an enviable network of tech contacts and a decade of industry experience. He also had a lofty dream: To reinvent Internet flight search. So he called up his old friend, Reddit co-founder Steve Huffman, and embarked on a summer project. It culminated in this week's launch of Hipmunk, which drew instant acclaim for its new approach to an old but still daunting search challenge: matching travel shoppers with flights. Hipmunk arranges flights on a colorful, user-friendly grid, letting browsers evaluate their options in a blink. Just days...

In a 2007 study, it was determined that Sweden was the least religious country in the world. Another words up to 85% of the Swedish citizens were either a non-believer, atheist, or an agnostic. Which explains the lack of sexual morals in the way the Swedish people live their lives. Culturally, Sweden is one of the most sexually immoral countries in the world. An accusation they claim to be unfair, because in their eyes they are just being sexually free. However, I am now convinced that the criminally insane perverts are now running things in Sweden. What else can...

Sherrod, 62, insisted her statements in the video were not racist. "For Fox to take a spin on this like they have done, and know it’s not the truth … it’s very upsetting," she said. ............. The AJC is trying to recover the full video footage of Sherrod's speech to the Douglas NAACP. She said the circumstances made it absurd for her to have made any racist comment. "There were some white people there. The mayor (of Douglas) was there," Sherrod recalled. "Why would I do something racist if they were there?"
