.... treated like recalcitrant teenagers by those that think they know what is best for us, regardless of our feelings. Generally, it is later discovered that the proponents of these kinds of controlling maneuvers had something personal to gain. Be it power, control, money, sex or property. Those that wrote this bill, pushed for it, bargained away our rights in order to trade favors for something of their own, should be scrutinized closely, in every aspect of their own lives. If we continue to demonstrate, to march, to speak out, to make our voices and our wishes heard, maybe-- just may .....

.... are available. The PETA website says that "animals, like humans, have interests that cannot be sacrificed or traded away simply because it might benefit others." (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals 2-3). Essentially, PETA is of the opinion that animals and humans should have identical rights. In their press releases PETA puts out pictures of rabbits with open flesh wounds and dogs with rashes on their skins--all in an attempt to disgust people into sympathy for their cause. In actuality the number of lab animals used has been cut in half in the last 25 years (James-Enger 2 .....

.... last month. "Regretfully, [the task forces] were never really implemented," DEA chief Thomas Constantine told Congress last week, blaming the failure on corruption and lack of security. U.S. officials said the Mexican government failed to finance the task forces and that U.S. agencies had borne the full cost of Mexican operations until last September. At that point, U.S. officials said, Mexico said it no longer wanted U.S. funding and that the task force would be paid for with money confiscated from drug traffickers.

.... Medical drugs, such as Naloxone, are sometimes given to patients to aid in overcoming these addictions. These drugs occupy opiate receptors in the brain to block all effects of the damaging drugs, however the Naloxone is not an addictive drug, as the others are.

.... don’t even care that he is doing something bad so he will continue to do it. Teenagers also commit acts of violence to get their parents’ attention.

.... flag, our own anthem; but are we really Canadian or a not quite United State of America? In Canada, strong government involvement plays an immense role in determining the destiny of its people for the good of the society. In Canada you are reminded of the government every day.

.... Why should someone in the possession of an ounce of cocaine be given more time in jail than a rapist, or murderer? At least if you commit those crimes you can have the chance to appeal and get out on good behavior. Seriously what can be the good of keeping these laws? The worst thing about the is that they just don’t work. The enactment of these laws has not stopped the use or the sale of drugs, an new method for dealing with drug crimes is needed. This may mean more education, or more rehab facilities, or even still sending the criminals to jail, but for a more reasonable amount of t .....

.... her. Many couples, who can not have children of their own, want to adopt new born babies.
