they can have them the minute they arrive in the shops? Like the PS3 for example, and people fighting and getting shot?? Can't people wait a few days or a week? Life is more than gaming and clothes and food......
Are people's priorities so skewed?? Joe

In the UK there are 40,000 registered addicts, but the real figure could be four times that number.

Up to 60% of crime is drug related. Addicts committing crime to feed their habbit,

If the drug was legally administered to all users by a Doctor, you would imediatley and drastically cut crime.

It would also diminish the power and influence of the international criminals who control the black market.

Heroine is a massive and destructive problem, should the solution be in the hands of the government and the medical profession where it can be regulated and administered in a controlled manner, or should it be left in the hands of criminals and the black market.

The drugs policy in the UK is not working it needs to be changed.

Or should we just leave it exactly as it is?

Your thoughts please..

Do we need to take recycling more seriously?
We dump in the ocean, then take food from there, does this make sense?

Ive noticed especialy on an anthropology question that specificaly stated "no references to the bible AND/OR Religion" some people kept saying stuff like adam and eve, and god created, blah blah the list goes on.

so my question is this, why must a lot of people ignore this simple request to have some non-religious answers involved when the outcome was meant to be fun and spice up a certain topic rather than have the same mumbo jumbo spoon fed to you now as it was when you were young?

I'll explain my question with a possible anecdote of my own:

I go grocery shopping with me kids. In order to make things interesting I have previously obtained walkie talkies and we separate up into two separate covert groups with our list of objectives divied between us. We (both separate groups)are very careful around corners and utilize our coverperson to check to ensure the coast is clear and subsequently to cover us whilst we obtain the items in question. Etc.

In short, we turn a mundane shopping trip into an adventure. We get more than a couple odd looks. :) Does anybody else participate in similar activities?

If there were an all out nuclear war, there would follow (so they tell us) an induced nuclear winter which would last for decades and cool the planet, so should we promote such an event as a cure for global warming?

Have you ever tried to corner one into an open shop doorway? They will do all that they can to avoid going into the shop. Maybe they are all reformed shopaholics and can't bare to go inside.

....their frustrations. like, for instance, a building that had room with padded walls that people could hit whenever they get angry. I wish they had something like that so that I wouldn't have to take my anger out on other people and by smashing glass bottles all the time.

I think more women don't shop on ecommerce site, because they're scared of security breaches of personal information. I don't think that men are as concerned. What is your opinion?

I really want to get the hell outta here, I don't like how much control they have over me, and I feel they are able to controll me more and more everyday through their changing of laws, etc.
I wouldn't hate it at all If I just lived out on the land as a farmer with no electricity, it would bring me peace, living in another country or somewheres where the governemnt couldn't bother me. I wish the "other place" could still be in the U.S., but I know to be free I can't live here, that is reality.

- Your job situation. You can't force employers to hire you. For instance, I graduated from high school with a 95 average, graduated from university with a 3.5 GPA, worked part-time jobs, interned during my final semester, invested tens of thousands of dollars, and applied to 126 companies and counting... and haven't even been on one interview! Not one!

- How others treat you. You can't force anybody to be your friend and you can't force girls to like you. Growing up, I was called every name in the book, put down, ganged up on, jumped, slammed into lockers and cars by people older and bigger than me, challenged to fights out of nowhere, treated like sh!t for no reason, shunned, and rejected constantly. Yet, I'm told to "stop complaining, deal with the abuse, and smile."

I'm not one of those people going around suing people to try and become rich. I believe I have a legit claim. I am currently a freshamn in college. At the start of my junior year in high school I began playing football for my high school team. After three months of wearing a Riddell Company football helmet I noticed my forehead was psuhing down on my brow (the area between my eyes). I now have a furrowed angry expression, as opposed to the normal appearance I had before I wore the Riddell football helmet. the helmet caused this change, and some of my teammates and my family members noticed the change. I am personally scarred by this, as I in public I am very self-conscious about it, and I find myself raised my eyes so my forehead stretches and looks normal. I believe Riddell is responsible for this disfigurement of sorts, but should I go after them or do any of you think that this is not legitimate. Please be honest and helpful with your responses. thanks.
