  •  
    The famous reality TV show 'Sister Wives' is using their show to not only educate America about their religious lifestyle, but to help fight to let it be legal once again. Polygamy was outlawed in the 1890s, but it is still practiced today by many Mormon families. The religious practice has to be carefully done in secret for the fear of being convicted. The author states that Mormons just want to freely practice their faith and be left alone about it without legal consequences.

Legalizing Marijuana - 0 views

  •  
    The writer of this article is the executive director of Law Enforcement against Prohibition and he also on narcotics policing in Maryland, and he wants Marijuana legalized. And I have to say that I agree with him all the way on this. Alot of the time we do things because we know we aren't supposed to, and it makes it that much more exciting. So, in legalizing marijuana he believes that it will reduce the crime. Every year thousands of people are murdered over battling for drug turfs. In legalizing the drug, you would eliminate the middle man, and all the danger that comes with that. Instead, you could buy it in the store or a specialty shop like you would tobacco. I say lets get this ball rollin'!
