I'll advise a min raise because in that situation because the information is worth the raise and if there's anyone with a stronger hand they'll most likely reraise because they won't want too much players in the pot and if anyone calls then continue on the flop with a 1/2 pot sized bet and you'll most likely win the pot if the flop is rainbow and if someone calls you'll know how to continue after seeing the turn!
Often when the player in the small or big blind puts in a raise Queen Jack offsuit, if no one else raises. Justified if such action or is it stupid?

Not sure I understand your question. It's phrased poorly. Do you mean that you are in the SB with QJo, and it's folded around to you? That is, you are opening the betting.
In that case, I would almost always raise. You have a chance of winning the blinds immediately (and that can add up faster than you think). If the BB is in the habit of overdefending his blind, it's STILL a good idea. That means he is calling with a lot of crap hands.
This is exactly right. There would have to be abnormal circumstances for me to NOT raise in this scenario.
