These is a great topic in my opinion. You hear so many people talk about how they have stop smoking to avoid getting sick in the future. I think its great that smoking is banned from many public places, because like they say second smoke has the same affect as if you where the smoker. I see that more and more people prefer non smoking hotel rooms, bars, restaurants etc its a better choose for are health. And like the article mentions of not hiring smokers.

With planned parenthood comes controversy, and opinions range from pro-abortion and anti-planned parenthood, to being against both. But Sarah Torre gives seven good reasons planned parenthood should not be given government funding. According to Torre, Planned parenthood pushes abortions, instead of education about precautionary measures. They oppose laws that protect women and children, and they only care about their profit, and they don't even provide the best care.

On April 23, 2010 Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer signed Senate Bill 1070 into law. The controversial bill gives Arizona law enforcement the authority to stop people whom officers have "reasonable suspicion" of being in the country illegally, detain these individuals while verifying immigration status, and arrest undocumented immigrants for transfer to ICE custody. Depending on who you ask, the controversial bill is either anti-immigrant, unconstitutional or a blessing.
