Alcohol And Tobacco Harder Drugs
1,031 words
Should Marijuana be Legalised? Marijuana should be
legalized for a number of reasons. It is a
relatively safe drug, in comparison to harder,

If You Choose Freedom, There Is Only One Choice It
is not surprising that abortion is an issue
debated heatedly, as it calls us to question our
moral beliefs on a very personal issue. With both
pro-life and pro-choice factions zealously
protecting their stance, it would be easy to opt
out of the decision. Perhaps particularly for
groups for whom it may not be an immediate
personal issue (such as males or females past
child-bearing age), it may seem an argument not
worth investing in. However, wh...

Historically, the African American has had to

often seems as if we have been forced to create
everything out of nothing. Music kept us closer to
the essence of ourselves. Thus, there is little
wonder that the drum was outlawed in certain
slave-owning locales. The drum was a threat
because it articulated cultural unity and
communication. But we of course began to clap our
