As parents do we have the right to say "NO" to drugging our children? I found this article to be very informative. This article suggests that we as parents need to question the responses given to us by our doctors. There are many cases of misdiagnosis. In some states there are schools that have rules in place if your child is diagnosed with ADHD and ADD they are required to take Ritalin. If you "opt out" the school can tell you not to bring your child to school anymore! Considering I have a child they are trying to get me to medicate, this issue hit home for me. There are many recorded deaths that have occurred as a result of taking this drug. That is a chance I am not willing to take.

Recently, Oregon has been named the "top state in the union for personal freedom." Apparently they have no problem with people riding bikes naked, but smoking marijuana, a problem. However, another section of the article stated that rankings, or polls are "essentially meaningless jumble of arbitrary numbers."

My conception of ethically permissible behavior is based on the view that any decision is ethically permitted if it is voluntary and does not cause gratuitous harm to others. This is congruent with the early ethical stricture in medicine, Primum non nocere, "First, do no harm." However, our perception of harm must be qualified. A living being can be harmed without being harmed in a moral sense. I harm a mosquito when I swat it, but I do not harm it in a moral sense unless I assign a moral absolute value to the mosquito's well-being. To be harmed in a moral sense is to be wronged. Thus, my concern is with behavior that does or does not wrong another.

This article is split half and half. They have proven a lot of legit reasons as to why prostitution should be legalized, but many people feel so strongly against it at the same time.

First, nice one Phebs. Now when it comes to this it should definetly be illegal, because it only leads to more problems.

I think it should remain illegal because it could lead to legalization of pimping and prostitution rings. The dirtbags who are willing to sell women for their bodies deserve to rot in jail. Even if prostitution became legal there would still be jerkoffs who won't want to follow the state regulated standards put in place.

Technology has come very far, it makes life much easier. People want life to be easier, but we loose sight of the meaning in our lives. It is when things are difficult that we find the things worth living for. This article talks about the 5 ways technology has effected us negatively. Storage is no longer an issue, we save almost everything, and pirating has greatly increased. People no longer carry cash, it is easier to loose sight of what is spent when everything is paid for on a card. Cars are now beginning to do the driving for us. movies are being developed to the point where it is like we are actually in the film and we stop connecting with the actors themselves. Google glasses are meant to replace cellphones but they are majorly unsafe. with all of this technology it is hard to see where we will be in the future.

Gun control and violence is always a popular topic in debates. However it goes nowhere. Those that are pro-gun control do not use valid facts to back up their reasoning on why parts of our freedoms should be taken away. It will never be harder or impossible for felons/bad people to find guns. Yes, they are wanting to confiscate guns. Buying a gun is not as easy as buying groceries, there are laws in place that restrict who can buy guns legally. Concealed carriers do stop mass shootings. There are lots of myths that come along with the debates, and no one should make a decision without doing research.

Arizona case of CPS kidnapping with no facts to back up their reasoning for taking the children.

Kentucky case of children being taken with no reason other than the opinion of a caseworker,

Focuses of the amount it would cost the government to completely get rid of Planned Parenthood. Many countries besides the U.S have Planned Parenthood clinics where there are no other option for women that cannot afford medical care to get the services they need.

The unwanted pregnancies and births that abolishing Planned Parenthood would bring, will only end up costing the government more in the long-run. This action would also take away an essential health care provider for women with no other options.

Defunding planned parenthood would end up costing the government more in the end. Since planned parenthood does more than just abortions through their organization it would cause health care for women aside from abortions to be taken away from them. Therefore that can present a huge problem in the future if that were to happen.

Kansas City, MO has passed legislation to allow anyone who is under the age of 31, was brought here before the age of 16, is in school or the military, and has no criminal record to live here without any reprecussions.
