Assisted Suicide: A Right or a Wrong? - 1 views

    The issue of whether or not patients have a right to die is explored, as well as whether or not those who help such people should be considered murderers. It gives anecdotes about family members who could not bear to see their loved ones suffer, and offers opinions on both sides of the issue.

    This article touches on the debate of assisted suicide. Some people are pro, believing that once one has lost their quality of life they should be able to make the decision to end their own(with assistance, since, for whatever reason, they are unable to commit suicide on their own). Other people are against assisted suicide, believing there are situations where it would go against personal moral codes of doctors or nurses, or that the person pleading to die may change his/her mind and it will be too late.

    This article talks about how some vaccination may cause authism. Some feel very strongly that MMR is the main cause authism. Although there has been no proven fact that it does, some believe that they will not give there child the vaccination. Andrew Wakefield is overseeing a facility in Texas to try to understand better what may cause authism. He was the first physician who reported that some vaccinations may cause authism. Some Texas representive believe that Wakefield's studies are correct.

    The article talks about how smoking is not a personal freedom. It gives examples of how if it only affect the smoker it will be consider a personal freedom, but the fact is that it harms everyone around the smoker

    Some feel that smoking should be a personal choice, but at what cost to others. Smoking is a freedom that affects those around you. They infringe on someone's choice to not smoke.
  • Jessica Espinoza on 02 Sep 13
     
    I believe that smoking should be kept away from others.
  • andrew nunez on 03 Sep 13
     
    The only way to isolate the situation I believe would be to make cigarette illegal. The government will never let that happen though because of the amount of money tobacco produces for them. Until that day, we will still continue to see people suffer and die from smoking.

    There is an organization in Illinois that stands up for smokers in that state. Some think that by banning smoking in some bars and resturants will hurt the business not help. Garnet Scheuer, chair person, believes that it should be up to the private business owners to decide whether they should have smoking allowed in their establishment not the state itself. He believes that there is no difference between a smoker and non smoker rights. A smoker should have the same rights!

    This is crazy its about how the copscan arrest you on the spot if you can't prove your citizenship status. Further more it states that if you buy a gun made in Arizona you don't have to register it.
  • dsmoliver1 on 31 Jan 15
     
    The weapon of choose becomes their Constitution right to bear arms. Perhaps that prospect will make police a little more concerned about who they round up on the streets. We doubt it. Weapon's instructors in Arizona feel cheated by the state's law makers as they are killing their business.
  • anonymous on 31 Jan 15
     
    It is wrong to be stopped by patrol just because you don't seem to look like you're from the US. As for the weapons not having to be licensed also defeats the purpose. I think anyone who owns a concealed weapon should be trained on how to use it, and with that you have to own a license.
  • anonymous on 31 Jan 15
     
    I defiantly disagree with both of these laws. I don't think it is right that a cop can pull someone over just to make sure they are legal. I also think in order to be allowed to handle a gun people should go through safety classes.
  • lukemclellan on 03 Feb 15
     
    I think there should be a little more added to both these laws. If you want to search someone regardless of race, gender, religion or whatever you should need probable cause. Also I think if you are going to handle any type of weapon you should have some background with weapons handling; maybe off free weapons safety classes at public ranges?

    Gay marriage talks about both legal issues and social argument issues. Legal argument grab more attention because they involve civil and equal rights. Gay marriage should respected, no matter if people don't like the fact of gay marriage. People believe that gay marriage is harmful, but there is no prove. There are good reasons to legalized gay marriage because it would benefit us all.

    There is obviously more benefits for gay couples to be legally married. I think everyone should be happy and that there should be no law to say otherwise. If gay couples are allowed to get married not nly does it help them but also for the people around them.
  • anonymous on 31 Jan 15
     
    I am all for gay marriage. I think if a couple is happy with one another then let them be happy. There are many benefits to being married and I think they should be allowed to get married.

    to be honest in this day and age I cant even believe this is still an issue? I completely support gay marriage if they want to live together forever just like everyone else I say go right ahead.

    This page allows everyone to understand the meaning of religious freedom in America. It explains a range of subtopics including Constitutional rights in public as well as denying the right to vote on a specific religion. Each individual has their own right to believe in what they want, and it explains how the government can't interfere with that.

    Getting an education isn't just about books and grades -- we're also learning how to participate fully in the life of this nation. (Because one day we are going to be in charge!) But in order to really participate, we need to know our rights -- otherwise we may lose them. (nmw) These are the rights that come with religious freedom and what it's all about.

    The writer of this article believes America has a gun problem based on these statistics. They are starting to issue background checks when purchasing firearms to hopefully stop people who have bad intentions. It also talks about how much money guns are costing u.s. taxpayers based on the medical bills, etc. that follow guns when they are purchased by the wrong people.

    In this article it gives both pros and cons of enacting the gun laws. Tells you both aspects of how certain situations can be reduce for example suicide. Some people believe if the government would have a stricter laws for gun control. Less harm of hurting others or yourself can have a big role. People who don't agree with gun control believes if their are more background checks its invading their privacy.

    This paper is an argument that more government is better and that those who believe in a smaller government are wrong. Although on the surface his arguments appear to be valid, he fails to substantiate his big government position by elaborating how just how big a government can be and not implode to the point of a despotism.

    (AP) WASHINGTON - As the income gap between rich and poor widens, a majority of Americans say the growing divide is bad for the country and believe that wealthy people are paying too little in taxes, according to a new survey.
  • Christina Cram on 02 Sep 12
     
    I liked this article because it shows how if everyone payed the same tax rate increase it would add up to a much larger amount then if we just put the higher tax on the 2 percent of the higher income indivuals. It also shows how much the "rich" pay into taxes and how little much of the mid class pay at all. It was very informational.

    The "contraception mandate" requires private health plans to provide access to contraceptive drugs with no exception for religious beliefs. This includes the private health plan used by the Catholic Church when they don't believe in contraception of any form.
