Do You Think It’s Silly That Tobacco Is Legal While Marijuana Is Not?

Question by mutterhals: Do you think it’s silly that tobacco is legal while marijuana is not?
“An exhaustive search of the literature finds no credible reports of deaths induced by marijuana. The US Drug Abuse Warning Network records instances of drug mentions in medical examiners’ reports, and though marijuana is mentioned, it is usually in combination with alcohol or other drugs. Marijuana alone has not been shown to cause an overdose death” – Quote via the Substance Abuse & Mental Health Administration

Prescription Pill Abuse?

Question by Less Confused: Prescription Pill Abuse?
Why is it not a bigger deal?

There’s all kinds of anti-drug propaganda about marijuana. You can’t watch TV without see one of those silly commercials. But even the strictest person has to realize marijuana is the least of anyone’s problems.

Everyone I know abuses prescription pills. Hydrocodone, oxycodone, Xanax…many more I can’t name. Middle aged housewives trade these amongst themselves like candy. They give them to their children to calm them down…I’ve witnessed this on many occasions.

Almost everyone has a prescription for some type of “nerve pill” or pain pill…yet it’s impossible for everyone to have that kind of problem.

Who Should I Donate To?

Question by Tyler: Who should I donate to?
This year, I am deciding to donate about 1% of my total income for the year. I made about $ 5000 this year so that equates to about $ 50. I have a few organizations I am considering donating to, I just am not sure. I’m 17, and I just like donating, volunteering, and giving back to the community.
