Legalizing Marijuana

Marijuana could potentially be a saving grace to the United States government. Although marijuana hasn't been proven to ever kill anyone, lawmakers have not been quick to act on this area. It is considered a narcotic, so driving under the influence of marijuana could lead to a DUI charge. However, driving under the influence of marijuana has not been proven to kill anyone. On the other hand, drunk driving kills thousands upon thousands each year, but alcohol is 100% legal for anyone over the age...

How Big Was Spinosaurus?

Achmed18

How big was Spinosaurus actually? The truth is, no one knows. The big question is, how big was the entire body? Many people have been arguing about how big the spinosaurus is, but no one will ever know. Some people think the spinosaurus is just massive, up to 60 feet, or even more, long,(And yes you can tell my user name is a bit young and I am a bit young for me to actually say something adult like.) and others say it was only 45 feet or less. The real answer of how long it is, is no one will e...

We should relax restrictions on guns

Here are some things I agree with: 1. Universal background checks 2. The prevention of allowing guns in the hands of people with certain mental health conditions. Although we cant stop them, I agree that they shouldn't have guns as easily as others. 3. People kill people, not guns. If everyone was armed, there would be less crime because nobody would want to commit crime against an armed person. 4. There should be armed policemen at every school, he can stop the killer before he even kills a...

1)Negative assertion: In 1974 court ordered busing wasn"t the only strategy that could have desegregated Boston"s public schools. Other options would be to give other options and more choices. Where you live is your choice so schools aren"t segregated by law. These options would cause less violence. 2)Negative assertion: Students and society will not benefit from more children attending racially integrated schools. The surveys may not be right. This may only work in a poor community. Some...

Assertion#1: Courts should have the responsibility to create racially balanced schools. The reason why this is important because students and society will benefit when more children attend racially integrated schools. Because of integration the percentages of a student being bullied because of their skin color will lower.ir Also, the environment will be safer for the students and no group will have more power than another, everyone will be treated equally. Assertion#2:To create a desegreg...

Assertion #1: I believe that courts should have the responsibility to create racially balanced schools. In Boston public schools were segregated by race, and the only way to desegregate them was by the court-odder in 1947 that made busses transfer the kids to other school. Blacks and whites were not happy with this decision, and if they were not forced to do it, they would have never done it willingly. There are a lot of benefits to having racially balanced schools; one is that everybody get...

Negative evidence: The court mixing black and whites is making it worse for the students to foces in school. Schools should stay with their own color and race. Negative assertion #2 Courts are powerless to combat prejudice. Negative evidence: Courts cant make you talk to someone you don"t like or feel comforable talking to. Courts can tell you w...
