Case For Legalizing Marijuana
.... actual
hallucinations. More potent preparations of cannabis such as hashish can
induce psychedelic experiences identical to those observed after ingestion
of potent hallucinogens such as LSD. Some who smoke marijuana feel no
effects; others feel relaxed and sociable, tend to laugh a great deal, and
have a profound loss of the sense of time. Characteristically, those under
the influence of marijuana show incoordination and impaired ability to
perform skilled acts. Still others experience a wide range .....

Legalization Of Marijuana
.... who otherwise wouldn't have the desire to eat.
I think the repercussions of legalizing pot would be almost completely
beneficial to society as a whole. The beneficial effects outweigh the
adverse. This subject should be seriously investigated by our government.

If Marijuana Were To Be Legal
.... Marijuana
should be taxed heavily to increase our revenue. Marijuana and other drugs
would be made by the same people who make aspirin so the quality would be
assured, containing no poisons or adulterants. Sterile hypodermic needles
will be readily available at corner drug stores. These could be taxed
heavily because the users will be assured of "clean drugs."
Making drugs legal will reduce the great amounts of money spent on
enforcement every year. Drug dealers and users are one step ahead on the .....

The Legalization Of Marijuana: Pros And Cons
.... that morphine and cocaine are legal and are very
dangerous drugs, that brings up the question why not legalize marijuana as
medical drug which is proven to be less dangerous than cocaine and morphine.
Lobbying groups in a San Diego, California , council committee unanimously
voted to urge president Bill Clinton and congress to end federal
restrictions against the use of marijuana for " legitiment medical use."
City council women Christine kehoe said she wanted the city of San Diego
"to go on .....

Paula Jones' Lawsuit Against Bill Clinton
.... It could be months before the verdict from the Supreme
Court will be announced. I believe that the case should be held at a later date
when President Clinton is no longer in office. It takes away from his job which
is to run the United States of America. Fifteen years ago, the Supreme Court
blocked a damage suit against Richard Nixon with a five to four vote finding
that the president is immune from being suied for his official acts. If the
president gets in trouble, the whole nation is also in trou .....

Software Licensing And Piracy

organizations. Many firms involve their legal departments and human
resources in regards to software distribution and licensing.
Information can qualify to be property in two ways; patent law
and copyright laws which are creations of federal statutes, pursuant to
Constitutional grant of legislative authority. In order for the government
to prosecute the unauthorized copying of computerized information as theft,
it must first rely on other theories .....

Is The Death Penalty Just?
.... penalty cite it as barbaric.
The definition of murder, according to Webster, is "the unlawful killing of a
human being with malice aforethought." Therefore an uneducated person would
classify murder as equally barbaric. The mitigating factor of the death penalty
is, or should be, an already established punishment for this crime. The killer
willingly committed the heinous act of taking a life, knowing they would be
subject to this penalty. Therefore, he decided to gamble on not being caught,
or thou .....

Capital Punishment: Costs Of The Death Penalty
.... money, save money and when we spend money we do so with a
valued return in mind. Accordingly, a popular argument contends that we spend
too much money incarcerating prisoners for life. We probably do but the price
tag on issuing a death sentence according to a Florida study is $3.1 million
compared to $1 million for a life sentence; a 3100% difference (Walker 1994,
108). Imagine your death being valued at $3.1 million - how flattering. Based
on these figures, the difference in the price of an execut .....

Capital Punishment
.... to belong to a community is
not unconditional. The privilege of living and pursuing the good life in society
is not absolute. It may be negated by behavior that undermines the nature of a
moral community. The essential basis on which community is built requires each
citizen to honor the rightful claims of others. The utter and deliberate denial
of life and opportunity to others forfeits ones own claim to continued
membership in the community, whose standards have been so flagrantly violated.

Pornography
.... the
traditional conception of a rights holder's cause of action. This
subsection reads:
Any woman has a claim hereunder as a woman acting
against the subordination of women. Any man, child or
transsexual who alleges injury by pornography in the
way women are injured by it also has a claim.
[emphasis added]
My goal in this paper is to suggest that a slight modification to
this subsection of the ordinance would make it very difficult for liberals
and .....

Don't Talk To Cops
.... NOT INVITE THE INVESTIGATOR INTO YOUR HOME!
Such an invitation not only gives him the opportunity to look
around for clues to your lifestyle, friends, reading material, etc., but
also tends to prolong the conversation. The longer the conversation, the
more chance there is for a skill investigator to find out what he wants to
know.
Many times a police officer will ask you to accompany him to the
police station to answer a few questions. In that case, simply thank him
for the invitation and .....

Capital Punishment
.... punishable by
the death penalty in 1833, and in 1869 it was cut down yet again to just
three: treason, rape, and murder because of violent nature of these crimes.
These crimes, even today, are still viewed as violent and should be
punished with the highest degree of discipline available to achieve justice.
After much public pressure, capital punishment was suspended on a
trial run in 1967. This proved to be ineffective, because even though the
law stipulated that crimes such as treason or the m .....

Efficiency And Effectiveness Of Our Criminal Court System

because of the amount of information involved.
The general atmosphere and behaviour in the Provincial Courtrooms were
general loose and calm. The people, lawyers, judge, clerk and recorder
seem to know each other very well. They joked openly, even while the court
was in session, the defence lawyer asked if he could persuade the judge
into a lighter sentence after the judge had already made a decision in a
very easy and friendly tone of voice, something seemly unprofessional tha .....

Serial Killers And Society
.... have
been put in the spotlight. We are enraptured with serial killers so
much, that we pay seven dollars to go see a movie where everyone
except the bad guys gets strangled, mutilated, or shot- and enjoy it
in some sick way. The media goes out of its way to glamorize murder
and terrify the public. We support killers like Charles Manson on
Death Row with our tax dollars. In fact, we support them with more
than that. About two months ago there .....

Dangers Of Anabolic Steroids
.... the healing
process of muscular tissue by first injuring them, then the muscles
heal quicker adding more fiber increasing their bulk. Many athletes
turn to steroids more often because they're cheaper then marijuana or
cocaine. A ten week cycle of testosterone cypinate and methandrostone
costs only about one hundred dollars. Steroids are also very hard to
trace because of their water base composition. They can pass through
the body within two days. All these be .....
