What is the law pertaining to filming people doing illegal drugs?
Like on true life, theres footage of these people (apparently) doing serious, illegal drugs. What is the legal sense behind filming something like that? Can it not be used to incriminated based on some kind of journalistic freedom?
Where does the federal government get the authority to make drugs illegal?
I ask because of the 18th amendment.
If they needed the 18th amendment to outlaw alcohol, wouldn’t they need an amendment to outlaw other recreational drugs?
And if the 18th amendment wasn’t necessary to outlaw alcohol (meaning they had the power to outlaw it without the amendment), then what was the point of it?

The haul: 150-200,000 plants, up to two-and-one-half tons of marijuana, sling-baled and lifted out by helicopter, 4-600 pounds per load. Plants range from knee-high to chest-high. All are bushy; typical, agents say, of Mexican-grown marijuana. Jordan places the street value at well more than $100 million. The cost of this entire operation to seize $100 million dollars in marijuana, one can only fathom. Officers think they are actually serving and protecting the community in these situations but they are only adding to the black market economy, rather than our own.
“DEA will no longer raid medical marijuana outlets.” said Barack Obama (Inauguration). September 10th, 2009; Authorities say 31 people have been arrested in a sting that targeted medical marijuana distributors in San Diego County. Just another raid conducted after Obama’s inauguration, when will it stop? The facts are in and marijuana’s benefit on a medical community is very promising. From cancers to multiple sclerosis marijuana seems to aid, reducing tumor growth to just the simplicity of enjoying the every day things.
As we cross into the economical benefit of legalizing marijuana we begin to see green, and I’m not talking about marijuana, I’m talking about money! Marijuana and hemp are both HUGE cash crops that can be taxed like alcohol bringing in billions of dollars. Officers in California, the nation’s biggest hotbeds for marijuana production, have chopped down plants with a combined street value of around $12 billion in the first eight months of this year. While national numbers aren’t yet available this year, officers around the country increased their haul from 7 million plants in 2007 to 8 million in 2008. What a waste of time, money, and effort. TAX IT! Instead of spending billions on preventing marijuana use, billions on eliminating marijuana grows, billions on jail systems and court fees, but instead, make money by simply taxing it.
Just like the TARP bailout (October 3rd, 2008) Obama must do this in order to protect our National Security against the invasion of this country by Mexican Drug Cartels that have infiltrated over 230 major American cities. By doing these two things the Drug Cartels will be destroyed within weeks without the expenditure of any further blood or treasure, on the part of the American People. You see each year the Mexican Drug Cartels grow ever more dangerous because Marijuana Prohibition constitutes nearly 70 percent of their annual drug profits: about 27 Billion dollars each year. So by simply allowing adult Americans to “grow their own” Marijuana the Mexican Drug Cartels will cease to exist and we can focus on other more serious socio-economic issues.

Quit Talking: Absorb the Facts of Marijuana
As health officials continue to bark out ridiculous claims about marijuana, one must begin to wonder; “Marijuana can be up to five times more potent than the cannabis of the 1970s, according to the National Institute on Drug Abuse. “ If you take a minute to interview any cannabis user of the 70’s you can clearly get a strait answer, the marijuana purchased in the 70’s included stems, leaves, and other parts of the plant not smoked. When you look at the potency per pound, obviously the 1970’s m

Unfortunate History of Marijuana Prohibition in the United States
Most Americans associate marijuana use with the hippie movement of the 1970’s. Little do most know, marijuana was very important to this country when it was founded. In 1610 the Jamestown colony mandated that every household cultivate the native Indian hemp. They used it to make clothes, fiber, cloth, and medicine. In fact, the Declaration of Independence was signed July 4, 1776 on hemp paper. In 1850, the Census Bureau estimated that 8,327 plantations nationwide grew hemp.

Zakat is the fourth ‘pillar’ of Islam. Zakat means setting apart for Allah every year a certain portion of one’s savings and wealth (generally 2.5 percent) and spending it upon religious duties and on needy members of the community. The fulfillment of this duty is, in fact, a kind of reminder that all one has is in trust for Allah. Man should, therefore, hold nothing back from Allah. To whatever one may amass in one’s lifetime, one’s own personal contribution is insignificant. If the Supreme Bei

A phone number has been set up to recreate what it would feel like to make such a call.

My best friend has always been addicted to illegal drugs. How do I step in this delicate crisis?
My best friend has always been addicted to illegal drugs. How do I step in this delicate crisis? I am a resident of Bear, Delaware. Any public or voluntary or professional services company would help me make a difference.
How does the economy affect the price of illegal substances like street drugs ?
I don’t do, sell, or plan on selling drugs. I am just curious how the economy effects the price of illegal street drugs?
Is it illegal to buy prescription drugs online without a prescription from a licensed medical professional?
I came across some websites on the internet wher you can buy prescription drugs without a prescription. Is this legal? Has the FDA even said it is safe to buy prescription drugs online without a prescription from a medical doctor? Personally, I think the government should shut down online pharmacies that are selling prescription drugs without the necessity of having a prescription.
Do certain illegal drugs cause early Rheumatoid Arthritis, or any type of bone deterioration more than others?
I know all illegal drugs are bad, but are certain ones known to cause Rheumatoid Arthritis, or any type of bone deterioration, over others? I have used a few in the past, and now at 22, I am suffering from an advanced case of bone damage in my hands. I have also been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia. Please help with real facts, Rather than just “Drugs are bad”. I will be picking the best answer. Thanks!
How long do illegal street drugs stay in a person systems and can be detected by a urine or blood samples?
I have this ex fired psychopath cop following and stalking me around. He uses and sells illegal street drugs to support himself. How long do various street drugs stay in a persons system? I do not know what the popular street drugs names are called? So can you fill me in on them? He uses them all.
Thank you everybody for your answers.
Why are prescription drugs illegal to obtain without a prescription?
Why can’t Congress pass a law making prescription drugs (the non controlled ones that are habit forming) something you can buy OTC like Tylenol and Advil?
What would be the dangers in doing that? At least the black market for prescription drugs would go away.
