You should research a topic before commenting. Prostitution is legal in Nevad and regularted by the state. The state receives a good portion of revenue in taxes from the business. Not one girl has been attacked while working in a brothel and not one girl or customer has gotten a disease fom a brothel. hese are good points about the business. - Reply to this comment
- I think we need to make the punishment fit the crime. For these crimes full restitution should be mandatory before they are released back into society.

You are right and i did this a few years back. I like to pay cash for everything now and keep one credit card for emergencies like car rental. I am much happier beingout of debt. - Reply to this comment
- If I''m ever able to financially, I''m going to rid myself of every credit card I own and go with just cash, checks and money orders. Identity theft is an ongoing problem that isn''t going to go away. Also, the interest rates on credit cards is already enough to eat you alive, so even though it might make buying things a little rough sometimes, I think cash, checks or money orders is better. I may keep one credit card for gas, but that''s about it.

- Too bad they won''t be executed, here and abroad. The Middle East would probably execute them. Isn''t everyone tired of these ID theft criminals?

- 40 million numbers works out to about 3.6 million felony charges for each of 11 defendants. If the judge goes lightly on these scumbags but still imposes consecutive 1-day sentences, that''s 9,962 years each. I bet they get about 3 years with probabtion. What do you predict?

are you talking about that mississippi governor that is going to pardon a stalker that murdered his ex wife? you are so dumb you didn''t even know about that one. You think conservatives stand for justice? those are bigger sell outs. - Reply to this comment
- [The heist was a black eye for retailers like TJX. The company, which initially disclosed the data breach in January 2007, said a few months later that at least 45.7 million cards were exposed to possible fraud in a breach of its computer systems that began in July 2005. Court filings by some banks that sued TJX put the number of cards affected at more than 100 million, based on estimates by officials with Visa and MasterCard, who were deposed in the suit. ]
why is TJX storing peoples credit card numbers on their computers? and why weren''t they encrypted as they were stored?
this should be illegal ... punishable by a $1 million dollar fine for each instance ... and the one whose info you were storing gets the money. - Reply to this comment
- ["While technology has made our lives much easier it has also created new vulnerabilities," U.S. Attorney Michael J. Sullivan said in a statement. "This case clearly shows how strokes on a keyboard with a criminal purpose can have costly results." ]
technology will be the death of us all in the end. - Reply to this comment
- Instead of "Bagdad John McBush (SURRRRRGE, DRRRILLL)" McCain and Obama beating up on each other, how about them addressing some real issues, like: What would you do about IDENTITY THEFT!!!
I haven''t heard one peep out of either candidate about it, though I would think Obama would try to do something about it. McCain is absolutely "clueless" on the matter and would need Joe Libermann to explain what that is to him!
Besides, the old buzzard is so rich anyway, he could care less if any of the "underprivileged''s" identities were stolen. We all look the same to him!
SIG HEIL, BUSH!!!!!
sig heil, ABSOLUTELY MORE OF THE SAME, "SURRRRRGE" McCain!!!! - Reply to this comment
- We just don''''t treat data crimes seriously enough. We are becoming an information society - data is becoming as vital as water and electricity and other core infrastructure. A person who tampers with the water supply or electrical transmission system would be treated vary harshly. But a folks who disrupt our information systems are routinely given a slap on the wrist.

We''re also a deregulating society. Nice ideas of yours, but they won''t work. - Reply to this comment

- Gonzalez was previously arrested by the Secret Service in 2003 for access device fraud. During the course of this investigation, the Secret Service discovered that Gonzalez, who was working as a confidential informant for the agency, was criminally involved in the case

- Does anyone notice the same thing I have noticed? Several of the people indicted in this raid have already been charged with previous crimes. But due to the soft judicial system they are released to commit more crime.

- I am surprised this simple theft case got DOJ priority. There have to be some massage parlors still out there operating to raid under prostitution laws. Regulating your morality is much more fun than fighting the obvious victim-involved crimes.
