    Explains why it is necessary to drug test welfare recipients. Some say it is not fair to target this group of people and other feel that tax payers pay for these benefits and it is not fair to them.

    This article discusses whether or not welfare recipients should be drug tested. Both opposing opinions are mentioned in the article. Personally, I believe that it should be required and that the opposing opinion in the article did not give a very good argument.

Jose Antonio Vargas was brought here as a child illegally under no choice of his own. What I find hard to believe is he's broken numerous federal and employment laws, achieved a measure of success...

    The government threatened to take the military's pay away. They believed it would give them more money for budget cost. Why would the government even think about passing this bill while we were at war? Luckily, the bill was never passed, but it makes you think twice about what politics really care about.

    This article talks about the good things as well of bad things about getting a child vaccinated. Some people believe they should let their childrens own immune system take care of whatever it needs to take care of on its own rather than have help with a vaccine. This is because some vaccinations can have severe side effects

    A judge in Mississippi put a lawyer in jail for not saying the pledge of allegiance. The lawyer did, however, stand up when the pledge was being said. Is this taking it to far? I believe it is out of respect to say the pledge. We have freedom of speech, but what about the freedom of silence?

    This article gives points from both sides of the spectrum regarding Abortion. It is a super controversal subject. Some people believe that even if you dont want the child, that you should at least wait out the pregnancy and then give the baby up for adoption. On the other hand, you have this person that has no interest in this child that they are carrying, so are they really going to make sure that it is a healthy pregnancy? Like no drinking, or smoking, taking all the pre-natal vitamins...and if the answer is no, then is it doing more harm putting a baby through future potential problems? All these questions are what make this topic so difficult to argue for or against and to be absolutly sure about the decision.

Here's a look at 10 abortion arguments from both sides - 10 arguments for abortion and 10 arguments against abortion - for a total of 20 statements covering a range of issues including teen pregnancy, rape and incest, post-abortion stress, health concerns and complications, and whether abortion is moral.

    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'!

    The DREAM Act is a bill that will make it easier for illegal immigrants to attend school and become a citizen in the long run. This Act will only be allowed to those who meet the requirements of it. The president of the United States is for this bill because he believes those illegal immigrants should not be punished for "the actions of their parents" and be denied to further their education. Without this bill, illegal immigrants wanting to go to school, get a decent job or join the military will not be able to.

    This website shows the laws and facts about the states that limit, allow, and manage certain things with same sex marriage. It also has a map of the U.S. with a key showing what the different states marriage acts and same sex marriage laws are. It then gives a history and overview of same sex marriage, talking about what states still have laws against gay marriage, and how involved legislatures are in this argument.

    This article gives a break down of information on which states are recognizing gay marriage or domestic partnership. It also lists those states that believe a marriage should be between a man and a woman. It does seem as though in this article, slowly but surely, some states are coming around or will be soon.

    This site discusses the states that limit marriage between a man and a woman, and the states that now will issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples. It also explains the states that allow spousal rights in a domestic partnership.

    Making it a law for employers to pay for birth control. I believe that that not such a great idea. Employees have the right to consume birth control or not to. Everybody has a different point of view for birth control. Some religions don't allow the followers to take these kind of medication. Not just Catholics have a say in these soon to be law but everybody should make there own decisions.

shared by Elizabeth Brzezinski on 05 Jun 12 - Cached
  • Robert N. Krentz Jr., 58, the scion of one of the best-known and oldest ranching families here in southeast Arizona, was found shot to death March 27 on his vast, remote ranch north of here after radioing to his brother that he was aiding someone he believed to be an illegal immigrant. Mr. Krentz went missing shortly after that call, and the police found his body several hours later in his all-terrain vehicle, his guns untouched in the back, his dog shot and critically wounded. Fresh footprints led from the scene to the Mexican border 20 miles away. Given Mr. Krentz’s radio transmission, the footprints and heavy drug and illegal immigrant trafficking in that area, investigators are working on the assumption that he encountered a smuggler, possibly heading back to Mexico.

    This NY Times article looks into the murder of Robert Krentz, the Arizona farmer, who was shot to death in Cochise County. Clues led to the possibility that it may have been an illegal alien who shot and killed Mr. Krentz. This event occurred during the heated debate as to whether Arizona's new immigration law, requiring documentation of legal status in the United States, should go into effect.

    My personal belief is that marriage is to be between a man and a woman, however, I also believe that is it not my place to judge anyone. Who am I to tell someone who to love? These days marriages that last are rare. If a same sex couple love each other and are happy together, I think they should be able to be married. There are a lot of same sex couple who have lived together as couple for a lot longer than most marriages last.
  • Ana Ortiz Palacios on 31 Aug 13
     
    When I read "The nine justices are considering challenges to state and federal laws defining marriage as the union of one man and one woman. The two cases before it provide an important opportunity for Americans to reflect on three questions: What is marriage? Why does it matter for public policy? And what are the consequences of redefining marriage?" it blew my mind a little, because it is challenging every American to think about marriage. Not just as a sex (male or Female) thing but as a whole.

    okay so it's totally understandable that people want to know what they are eating especially since we are all unique as an individual and some of us care about what we put in our bodies. There are a lot of people who have become vegans and only prefer to eat organic, non-genetically modified foods. Some people view certain things as a concern for their health. Labeling foods is something that I can agree with and believe is completely logical so i fit into the percentile of 92% of the citizens that vote for GMO labeling.

    The U.S. Court of Appeals upheld a fifth graders right to distribute invitations to her church's Christmas party. The school had banned the student from distributing the invitations citing the invitations contained religious materials. The court's decision was based on the First Amendment's right to free speech.

    This is wrong. Children just want to have fun and celebrate holidays together. I feel like holding children back from celebrating what they believe in can make them feel ashamed in their beliefs. This reminds me of how in most schools, kids aren't even allowed to bring in home made snacks for birthdays and its disturbing.

    Children just know it's a party and that the picture on the card is pretty. What if the invitation had a Jewish or Medieval Norse design would they have gone after it the same way. Was it only because the party was for his church. This is just silly.
  • JENNIFER MOLINA on 02 Sep 13
     
    Yes, invitations should not play a role in school policies. Taking the freedom of creativity from the child would be a dishonor to their freedom.
  • Maya Dominguez on 02 Sep 13
     
    I find that the student should be able to hand out invitations to a Christmas party as long as she isn't putting down other students beliefs or religious views why should this innocent act be banned?
  • Latisha Brown on 02 Sep 13
     
    I agree that student's should be able to learn of and encourage the religious beliefs of their classmates. How do we expect to raise well rounded individuals if we raise them to treat religion with such a hush hush attitude?
  • Nicolas Buenrostro on 02 Sep 13
     
    Being in a public school system, no religion should be enforced at all. These were Christmas invitations, inviting the students to a church event imposing the Christian belief system. This could have been done outside of school or elsewhere. This situation would only be okay if it was conducted in a private religious school, where public money does not fund the institution.

    Since I'm not the most social person by nature, I'm not very active with social media. I don't have a Facebook, or Twitter, or whatever. So, if anyone tries to Google me, there's not much that comes up. Hmm, I wonder if that could backfire if a potential employer can't find any information on me by using social media.
