Record numbers of teenagers are requiring drug treatment as a result of smoking skunk, the highly potent cannabis strain that is 25 times stronger than resin sold a decade ago.

More than 22,000 people were treated last year for cannabis addiction - and almost half of those affected were under 18. With doctors and drugs experts warning that skunk can be as damaging as cocaine and heroin, leading to mental health problems and psychosis for thousands of teenagers, The Independent on Sunday has today reversed its landmark campaign for cannabis use to be decriminalised.

Is the drug induced culture finally understanding what conservatives have been saying for all of these years?

Remember being angry, distraught, unable to believe that something like that had happened in the United States of America?
Remember feeling like our country had been violated?
Remember wanting Osama bin Laden's head on a platter?
Remember George Bush's "Dead or Alive" speech?

What happened????

WOuld it have been okay if they fired them all?

The poster child, David Iglesias, should have been fired way before he was.

Is this yet another political witch hunt all on the taxpayers nickel? Why didn't the Republicans do this when they were in control, you know, attack the opponent with lies and deceits?

Comrades, read the article before you spout the party line.

Can a good President survive? Does this explain why no real people run for that high office?

I heard an interview yesterday with the author of a new book called "Blackwater". This is a group of private "soldiers" under contract with our government. They are currently in Iraq and other places around the world. Homeland security hired them to police New Orleans after Katrina. They are paid between $350 to $ 800 per day - courtesy of our Department of Defense. The leader of the corporation is a close friend of Rumsfeld and has ties to Cheney as well. U.S. soldiers serving in Iraq were interviewed for the book and they talked about how demoralizing to them these contracted "troops" are. As one said " when you are making $35,000 a year with a pregnant wife and 2 kids - it makes you wonder why you are doing the same thing these guys are doing while our government pays them six figure salaries." What do others out there think about this? I am apalled - but not surprised.

Neighbor's dog deficated on my lawn, and we had verbal argument. Neighbor, has no fence no leash and his spouse accused me of posisioning their dog after it was very sick. This all occurred after this altercation with her spouse. I in no way ever hurt an animal and I would not endanger myself or my family's well being with an idiotic neighbor. I want to know if I can see the police report they filed with our local police as to see if it names me on it. No police officer ever came to me to interview me on the problem, so I want o know if I can see the report as I am having background checks on employment. Thanks

What is your opinion of Sinn fein/D.U.P?
Do you think the nationalists (those wanting a united ireland) are right or the unionists(those wanting to remain a part of the U.K) are right? Or do you feel that everyone is a s bad as each other? What is the international view of the IRA movement good or bad? A just cause or not?
