This may get complicated , but try to understand. These are just that facts. Nothing is made up. Some of my sources are from Wikipedia.

Death Of Paul Bern
- Jean Harlow married Paul Bern.

- Paul Bern was allegedly murdered by his ex-wife Dorothy Millette. Louis B. Mayer (head of MGM) and Eddie Mannix covered this up and said Bern shot himself.

- Dororthy Millette’s body was found in the Sacramento River a few days after Bern’s death. Dorothy Millette was seen at Bern’s house shortly before he died.

- Jean Harlow happens to be related to Gangster Bugsy Siegal.

Gloria Swanson
- Wllace Beery raped Gloria Swanson (NNDB.COM)
- JFK’s dad had a affair with Gloria Swanson.

The Death of Actor ted Healey
- Ted Healey was beaten to death by Wallace Beery , Pat Dicicco , and his cousin , Albert Broccolini. When Louis B. Mayer found out about this , he sent Beery to Europe for 4 months while the studio created the story of “college boys” beating up Healey. (Immigration records show that Walace Beery went to Europe immediately after Ted Healey’s death.) SOURCE : Wikipedia

Death of Actress Thelma Todd
- Gangsters Pat Dicicco or Lucky Luciano allegedly murdered Thelma Todd.

- Bugsy Siegal had ties to Lucky Luciano.

Death of Actor George Reeves

- Eddie Mannix allegedly hired a hitman to murder George Reeves.
- Reeves allegedly had Mafia connections. So did Reeves’ girlfriend , Lenore Lemmon.

Coincidences :
- Paul Bern allegedly shot himself.
- George Reeves allegedly shot himself.
Eddie Mannix is suspected of being somehow involved in both deaths.

Death of Marilyn Monroe
- Marilyn Monroe slept with John F. Kennedy and Gangster Sam Giancana.

- JFK slept with Marilyn Monroe with Giancana’s girlfriend , Judith.
- JFK’s dad was friends with the mafia back when he was a bootlegger.
- Marilyn Monroe knew Peter Lawford (related to JFK)

JFK Assassiantion
- JFK turned against the mafia acter helping him before president.
- Jack Ruby killed Lee Harvey Oswald (JFK’s accused assassin)
- Jack Ruby worked for Al Capone when he was younger
- Jack Ruby knew Carlos Marcello, Joe Campbisi, and other gangsters.
- Jim Garrison (the man who investigated JFK’s murder) knew Carlos Marcello.
-Auguste Ricord is a member of a mafia organization involved in Heroin trade.
- Lucien Sarti (the alleged Grassy Knoll gunman) is also a member.
- Antoine Guerini allegedly organized the JFK Assassiantion. The contract came from America (Either from Marcello or Giancana.)

Death of Actress Karyn Kupcinet
- Karyn Kupcinet was found dead in her apartment on November 30, 1963. JFK was shot on 11 / 22. Kupcinet had been dead for at least 3 days. She was found lying nude on a couch with a broken neck.

- Her death was said to be a homicide.
- Karyn’s father , Irv Kupcinet knew Jack RubY.

I don’t believe her death had anything to do with the JFK Assassiantion. But I just thought it was a strange coincidence.

Marilyn Monroe / Karyn Kupcinet similarities :
- Monroe was found in her bed nude.
- Her death was ruled “probably suicide”. Overdose of pills.

- Karyn was found lying nude on a couch.
- It’s could’ve been a suicide (a note was found) , but she has a broken neck.
Another thing about JFK :
Richard Cain (member of the Chicago Mafia ) is said to have been the shooter in BookDepository building. Not Lee Harvey Oswald.

Look up Richard Cain on Wikipedia. Interesting reading.
THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER
This this new book out called The Black Dahlia Files by Don Wolfe.

The book says Bugsy Siegal and the mafia was behind the death of Elizabeth Short. And the LAPD covered it all up.

I also believe the LAPD covered up the truth about the RFK Assassiantion and probably the truth about who was responsible for Marilyn Monroe’s death. Monroe’s telephone records disappeared. Also, he diary disappeared too.

My husband’s ex-wife is a Christian. At least in the sense that she goes to church and actively believes that I am going to Hell for black hair, tattoos, and witchcraft books. She was really mad about using temporary Halloween hair dye on my step-daughter (Allie). And a few weeks back Allie told her mom about a magic book and she flipped out before finding out the whole truth and went to bad mouthing about me and my husband. It was a magic book about card tricks and Allie can’t even read yet. For a while Allie was scared that we were evil people.

I think that appearances are the only thing that this woman feels that she can hold against us. She overdosed on narcotics a month ago and was sent to a psych hospital. Her face is littered with scars from her heroin use. She never held down a job longer than a week with one exception which lasted maybe two months. She also has a bad attitude problem and curses frequently. Allie sees her rarely and only on her good days.
I also use to be an active Christian and written for my church newsletter. I just felt the need to move on religiously. Morally I am still the same. I don’t like the main curse words starting with f, c, and b. Especially the combination of m and f. I wouldn’t ever let my kids read my personal books or be influenced in that direction. They go preschool in a church and my son is morally and emotionally stable. Allie acts out a lot after being with her mom for any length of time. She has good days and bad days.

California officials have determined that students would probably do better with math word problems, if they could relate them to real life examples. Towards that end, may I present:

The City of Los Angeles
High School Math Proficiency Exam

Name:_______________________________
Gang:___________________________

The dim moon rose high above the skies, as Michael Scearry lay there, in the streets of suburbia, stoned. The silent sounds of the trees swaying in the rushing wind- filled the night with an eerie sympathy. He opened his eyes, unable to see even the light illuminating off the surface of the moon because of his constricted pupils. His mouth, dry and his nostrils raw from the heavy amounts of heroin he inhaled the previous night.

He rose up in a daze, unsteadily, though eventually regained his balance. The stench of his breath would make even the sturdiest of people quiver in disgust. Michael’s stomach painfully churned. He ran over to a nearby bush, as he expected himself to be sick, when he tripped over a large rock falling with a thud onto the floor. A sea of memories flooded his mind.

His childhood ended with the passing of his gravely ill mother. The day that one should cherish and be brought with joy was the day his mother passed away and so he remembers her. The creation and loss of a loved one shared in a short period. Growing up with his father’s influence as he left his long-forgotten, innocent life behind. Michael’s father first began his drug addiction immediately after his wife’s death, to help numb the pain, sorrow and to forget the memories they shared together. As a child, Michael stumbled across a tablet, mistaking it for a tempting piece of candy. Carelessly he threw the ecstasy tablet into his guiltless mouth, his body travelled to an unknown world, not realising he was suffering a tremor in the process. Michael returned, back to reality, wishing his life had ended, as he had nothing to live for.

Michael returned home to his father, only to see him sprawled out on the couch. His aging face and fragile body revealed it all. For a male for a mere 45 years of age, what his appearance depicted was a man who was at the peak of life expectancy. His hair, greying and his lifeless eyes begged for mercy. Foolishness could be seen through the agitation of his persona. His father startled him, as he commented, “out taking the drugs again son. You’d make your mother proud.”
“Shut up! And your life’s been fantastic,” Michael remarked ironically. “You only care for yourself.” Michael’s father laughed. Then turned back to Michael,
“I’ve never told you this, but you and your mother looked so much alike and I just noticed that you’ve certainly inherited her lip.” This angered Michael to an extent like no other. He could feel his blood boiling, the pace of his heart beat, quickening. Nobody would ever speak to him like that and expect no retaliation, even if it was the only living relative he had.

“Don’t you ever speak about my mother under your breath!” His father stood up and eyed him.
“All you are is an accident.”
“Dad, you’ve ruined my life. You’re the reason for mum’s death.” Michael turned his body leaving the grown man standing. His father began to say something, though Michael ignored him and left through the door.
With no money, no food and much hatred, Michael stepped out, as the wind slapped his face. The earth was a snowstorm and he was a mere snowflake encrusted in it. To adumbrate his future was as simple as climbing the Himalayas.

Michael arrived at a hostel, where he was clothed and received some much needed food and shelter. The hostel was a revelation to the lowest of the community. A glance around he noticed the drunkards, the drug abusers and the scum of the public. They were the forgotten members of society. The hostel offered a chance for these people to regain control of their lives and succeed.

Michael had an epiphany the day he moved into the hostel. He did not want his life going down the drain, alongside his parents’. He learnt that taking drugs was not the way to go. There was more to life than this. He tried contacting his father countless times over the past few days, though his father was with no avail. He began to worry, “dad’s not usually like this.” He made up his mind and decided that visiting him would be the way to go, as a sense of guilt kept passing through him.

He arrived at his father’s home and knocked on the door for what felt like hours, the reply- nothing. He became desperate and charged through he door. He searched the house through and through, then noticed his father spread out on the floor. The sight of his father brought a thunderous, piercing scream out of Michael. “Dad! Dad!” He turned his Father, so that he could be facing the ceiling and his air passageways could be open. Michael performed CPR on his father, though his father’s response broke his heart. Instinctively he called an ambulance, realising that death had come and slaughtered his father.

Matthew Scearry joined his beloved wife that night and left his only son, alone to fend for himself. An autopsy later revealed that a cocktail of illegal drugs in his system triggered a heart attack, thus bringing the end to his wasted life.

The day of the funeral, grief

I fail at every relationship I’m in. By every, I mean every. Family, friendships, coworkers and most of all, romantic. Every relationship I have is strained. I stay to myself mostly. People tend to fuck me over a lot. I know I can be a bit abrupt, but I’m not ever intentionally trying to hurt someone’s feelings. I’m just honest.
Family is messed up because I come from a broken home, and my Father remarried…His wife doesn’t like us. She tolerates us and it’s blatantly obvious. My father ALWAYS takes her side. Never stands up for us. Warm and fuzzy. Aww.
Friendships…man, I was coasting for a while. Had a good group. The problem was we always drank a lot together. I’m bad with alcohol. Once I got my dui and lost my license…everyone pretty much just started drifting away from me. I went through a really long depression, and when I came out of it, they pretty much banded together to hate me.
Coworkers…ugh. There is one coworker who is especially manipulative and works to make my life hell. Telling stories to our manager. Making fun of me constantly. It gets old.
Romantic. I only attract guys I have no interest in or they have a major flaw…like heroin addiction. Whenever I do meet a guy and I decide I like him back…it always turns out that he is a pathological liar or a womanizer.

What.the.fuck.
Life sucks without people to share your life with.
I don’t even know what to do.
Am I doomed to be a social pariah for the rest of my life? If so, I’m fucking done.
funny you should mention NPD. I was just reading about that last night. The thing is, I try to change my actions. And every time I do, some new and unexpected negative side effects appear.

All throughout high school, I was just very closed off and I expected people to stay away from me. I wanted it.
Then I became more social and outgoing and was told “people are nice to your face, but everyone thinks you’re a joke.”
This has stayed with me and created a lot of paranoia. The more I try new things…being nicer, sugar coating…I realize people take that for weakness.

I am full aware of how I can be. I am by no means perfect. I’ve been to therapy and programs. I definitely don’t drink like I used to, at all. I’m at the point where I avoid situations with alcohol.

But an example of how this isn’t ALL my fault: i’ve told my parents several times I have a drinking problem, they’ve seen it. I’ve asked them to hide the alcohol from me. Yet, I still find 5ths of vodka in the freezer.
I know it may seem like I place the blame everywhere and the only common denominator is me.

I am well aware that something I’m doing must change. I just don’t know what. I can’t watch myself from the outside.
A therapist might be helpful, but they’re only going to see what I tell them.

The thing that I do find in common with most people is that, when I do something that bothers them…they don’t say anything. They remain quiet.
Then, finally, one day they explode on me for all this past shit I had no idea bothered them.
Why doesn’t criticism ever come with compassion? Why does it explode one day with anger?

How is that ever progressive or constructive?

I can’t change things if I don’t know what needs changing.

Alright so I’ve never had a good relationship with my dad. He lives about 10-15 driving hours away, and is…well, a jerk. And a heroin junky. I haven’t seen him in over a year, because each time I’ve tried to make plans to visit him, he’s cancelled. For reasons like getting fired from his job, to splitting up with his wife, to going away and “getting clean”(which he says all the time, and never really does). In May, I turned 16 and got a job. I have quite a few things going on this summer that I need to ask for time off for, which I hate doing as a new employee. Well, things have started to “settle down” for my dad, and he now wants me to come visit. I told him that I wasn’t sure when I’d be able to get the time off, which immediately turned into a screaming fight over the phone. He feels like “everything I do is more important than visiting him.” I have a job! He’s had 14 months to get his shit together. Now he is calling just about every week to see if I’ve got time off, and I keep
telling him that I’ll call him when I have more information, but he keeps calling anyways. Honestly, I’d rather tell him to fuck off and never see him again.

This might just be me venting, but I would appreciate some advice.
My dad also has a personality disorder. Borderline, I think it’s called.

I’ve known him way longer than the wife and she is just a horrible person in general. They were only boyfriend/girlfriend, until her illegal immigrant asss brought large amounts of cocaine into his house, and said if he didnt marry her, she would say it was his cocaine because otherwise she’d get deported. She even upgraded to heroin recently.

He is young and unhappy, and wants to divorce her, but the whole trial isnt officially over with. They dont have children, and they dont live together either.

Now, lately i’ve been seeing him secretly, and it’s getting soo serious but it hurts because I cant have him like I want him though. Should I just stop our relationship before my feelings get even stronger than what they already are?

my sister is in a very bad situation. She is dating a drug and alcohol addict and she is now 12 weeks pregnant by him. They are currently living together in their own apartment.

She is at our moms house every other day it seems… she goes there to get away from him because he hits her/throws stuff at her/argues with her for HER money (she works, he doesn’t!).. and all he does is do hard core drugs such as smoking PILLS off of tin foil, cocaine,and he is a known heroin user. Also, he was in prison for 8 years and got out 2 years ago.

He is CRAZY and even SHE knows it and admits it!.. she will text me and tell me everything is ok and then 3 days past and she is back at our moms house crying to her saying she can’t be with him anymore and that he is abusive to her and insane. Also, he is supposed to be taking medication for bi polar and anger management but he refuses to take it anymore.

He has pawned HER belongings such as her tv/xbox/etc for DRUGS and ALCOHOL money… when she gets paid he DEMANDS money (even just a $20 bill) and if she says no and they need to pay bills, he will go nuts on her… 2 days ago he threw a coffee cup with hot coffee in it AT HER all because she wouldn’t give him $20 for DRUGS!

She says she can’t even fathom the idea of sleeping/living without him and that she is so torn.. she says when things/days are good, they are really good, but when they are bad.. they are VERY bad and he becomes VERY dangerous and unpredictable.

she says she is thinking of putting the baby up for adoption, but he told her if she does, he wont sign over his rights/etc… and that if she has an abortion, she said that he will lose it and probably hurt her. (she is too far along for an abortion now.. she isn’t going to do that now)

SO, my main question is.. Is this psycho EVER going to change???? I keep saying he isn’t.. he is NO GOOD.. he is already 36 years old and acts like he’s still 20.

He is very controlling of her.. asks who she is texting or calling when its our MOM, or when she texts ME.. she also told me that he tells her that she has to leave the house and FORCES her to leave by threatening her at times when they are fighting…

I keep telling her she needs to get outta that situation, but she doesn’t listen to anyone.. and im scared for her safety…

These are the kinds of guys who we hear about on the news who kill/stab/shoot/beat up their gf/wife/etc.

any advice?

Oh, she says that when she tells him she is done and she is leaving him… he breaks down and crys and begs her to stay and that he promises he will stop the drugs and that he loves her and doesn’t want to lose her or his kid… she said she has told him she is leaving numerous times and every time he winds up crying and saying a few nice words and she goes right back to him..

Also, this guy has 3 other children by 3 different women and he has no idea where 2 of them are and the oldest one wants NOTHING to do with him (he’s 17) for unknown reasons.

She says that this time “it will be different” because she is with (dating and living with) the father. Our mom has already told her NUMEROUS times that she CAN NOT take on any more (take in another baby) and that if (which I am SURE she will) winds up alone/homeless/he leaves her high and dry… She CAN NOT come to her (our mom’s) house with another baby.. and that this time she is on her own.

This is like my first rap. I know it may be a bit iffy, but I’m only young. Here goes:

Just a simple paper boy
Treating his job like a simple toy
But one day, he saw his commander
Who told him his job was shit and slander
He got fired, got sacked
Now all their money was gone and strapped
Cus his father was a junkie
Ugly as a cow, dumb as a monkey
Cus all he did was do the speed
But the warning he did not heed
On the packet of tobbaco
He turned into a whako
A slacko
He was poor to his wife
Who kept strivin’ to save his life
But he just gave her the black eye bruise,
Spat on her and laughed ‘You lose’

Cus this boy grew up on the streets
Had to grow up on his own two feet
But then he got adopted
He had no choice; had to be opted
He fought at school
Was not cool
Acted hard, but was a retard
His life spilt into a billion shards
He lived in a junkyard
He always moaned ‘life is hard’
Had the ASBO’s, was always barred
From the blacks, the whites
Police afraid he would get into fights
From the pedestrians
Brought up to be Caucasian
This boy don’t know the meaning of right or wrong
Couldn’t write a poem, not even a song
Cus when he was 6, he had his own bong
Its like he has no noggin
His sister in the corner, sad and sobbing
Their life is a mess
They are the street pest
They never stop, never give it a rest
Mother couldn’t pass no test
Cus she couldn’t get the ropes
Thought life was a joke
Well look at her and her folk,
They do heroin, weed and coke
They have all the smoke
Stuffed away in with all the smoke

Thought they could live high
Dusk till dawn, morn till nigh
Well the people that stare all just sigh
This is a shit family
Cus they ain’t gonna live happily
Just a farirytale
I reality, they all in jail,
A messed up boy,
Who’s Dad is no joy,
Mother who’s had a 1000 pies
And a sister who is glum and cries

Cus he moaned Life is Hard
When he was wounded he got no get well card
His mama is addicted to lard
He got a sister who donno how to laugh
Got a dad who connected to the Mafia
Could it be sappier?
This boy don’t know if he can get happier
When he was 9 he had a Raffica
Then he struck a deal with the Grim Reaper
He was allowed to be Death, the grim keeper
Death wanted to know what triggered this rifle
In return he gave him his life n’ all
Well Death was a fool
This boy don’t know how to keep his cool

It’s an opera using only David Bowie tunes. I’ll give you the basic plot: a man is seduced by the Devil, which leads him to a life of eternal damnation after his living days are over. First, he consummates his relationship w/his girlfriend, ask her to marry him, and gets turned down. He’s torn apart inside, but soon enough meets an androgynous, bisexual man named Ziggy Stardust, who he has a relationship with. Ziggy dies from an overdose of heroin , and Aladdin decides to move from London to New York. He joins Andy Warhol’s clique (and they’re followed around by a weird entourage), then Andy is shot. After becoming somewhat famous among the New York underground rock scene, he moves to Berlin and becomes dependant on cocaine (The Thin White Duke), and eventually himself overdoses, and Satan drags him to Hell.

Now, as you are reading this, I want you to picture a barren world, where no-one and nothing exists but pain and isolation. I am 20 years old. All through my life I have been mistreated and abused by others. You name it and has happened to me. I was sexually abused as a child, not by my family thank god but by someone I held dear to my heart. I had a rough childhood, and I’ll give you another example of that. I never knew my father at all. I only know 4 things about him – He drove a bus for a living, he was of Greek origin, his name was Nick and when he met my mother he already had a family. He had a wife, kids you name it. I have never seen a picture of him, never heard his voice, nothing. In fact, with father’s day coming up, I can think of nothing but death and destruction.

The second thing is that although she is clean and stuff now, my mother was a chronic drug abuser. Whatever drug comes to mind, chances are she took it. Speed, dope, heroin the list goes on. I was neglected by her, as she would spend her money on her dirty filthy habits. There is more that could be put here, but this is probably not the place to put it. So, when I was 12, I walked out on her. During school no less. I went to live with my grandmother, who I have come to have a lot of apathy for.

What makes this sordid tale worse is that I had pretty much no support network at this time. Basically, all I had were my grandmother, and a plucky school counselor. Anyway, the next few years were pretty uneventful, until I finished high school a few years ago. At this stage, I was still withdrawn and while I am no longer this way, it was debilitating because I had no friends because of my introverted lifestyle.

Flash forward a few years, I STILL have no friends, no “female” friends, nothing. I have a job now (I started a course to be whats called a PSA worker in the hospital system), and I do try to go out and try new things as much as possible, but I have no one at all to share my feelings with, nothing. I especially would LOVE it if I found a girlfriend and that, but there is a slight hitch…I can’t perform the act of making love. A few years ago, I was involved in a minor road accident (No-one was killed, but I got injured pretty bad) and as a result, I got nerve damage that prevents me from…well, you can figure out the rest from there. That means that I cannot physically perform that act. Now, finding a relationship is going to be a B^*&h because who is going to fall in love with a guy that can’t “do it?”

I have been diagnosed with depression (and considering that what I have told you all thus far has only been a fraction of the story, wouldn’t you be?), and it has reached a stage where nothing matters at all. In fact, I don’t care if I was having a stroke or a heart attack. The reality of it is, if I was having one of those two things, I would not even call the paramedics because I don’t care if I live or die. Any suggestions on how to get out of this? I thought that metal health would be the best place to post this question.

Edinburgh, Feb 3, 2009 / 06:36 am (CNA).- Two British grandparents aged 59 and 46 have been told that they are too old and unfit to care for their grandchildren, who are to be placed with an adoptive homosexual couple.

The children had been in their grandparents’ care during their mother’s struggles with heroin. After their mother failed to bring them home from a visit, social workers became involved and the police were called in.

The children, a five-year-old boy called “Josh” and his four-year-old sister “Chloe,” were placed in foster care, an arrangement the grandparents believed to be temporary.

The local adoption and foster council went to court four times to have the children permanently removed and adopted, but each time the court ruled in favor of the grandparents.

According to The People, the council threatened to hire expensive lawyers, causing the grandparents to abandon their legal fight because of the potential legal fees and because of their fear the court hearings would prevent the grandchildren from having a settled home.

The unnamed 59-year-old grandfather, speaking in an interview with The People, said the day the social workers came to take away his and his 46-year-old wife’s grandchildren was “the worst day of my life.”

“Chloe was still little and although we were saying goodbye and reassuring her we’d see her soon, I don’t think she fully understood we wouldn’t be putting her to bed that night and we wouldn’t be there when she woke up. But Josh knew and he was howling. He was holding on to me and saying ‘Please, Granddad, don’t send me away. I want to stay with you and Grandma’.”

Two weeks ago they learned the children were to be adopted by a homosexual couple.

“”If we had known how it would turn out, that social workers would choose a home without a mother for them and we’d have to like it or not see them again, we’d never have given up the fight,” their grandmother said.

“The thing is they were so happy here. They knew they were loved and they were safe.

“They had all this countryside to play in. They loved going on the farm with their granddad. They’d see deer and badgers and all sorts out there.”

The children are now with a foster mother while they are gradually introduced to the homosexual couple.

The grandparents claim that social workers told them their access to the children would be restricted if they opposed the homosexual adoption, according to The People. Last week the grandparents were told they would never see their grandchildren again because they had made public the fact that the children were taken from them and to be adopted by two homosexual men.

According to the Telegraph, the case is believed to be the second time that a homosexual couple has been chosen to adopt in Edinburgh.

Peter Kearney, a spokesman for the Roman Catholic Church in Scotland, criticized the adoption, saying:

“This is a devastating decision which will have a serious impact on the welfare of the children involved.

“There is an overwhelming body of evidence showing that same-sex relationships are inherently unstable and reduce the life expectancy of those involved.

“With this in mind, the social work department has deliberately ignored evidence which undermines their decision and opted for politically correct posturing rather than providing stability and protection.

“It is impossible to see how this decision is in the best interests of the children,” Kearney remarked, according to The Scotsman.

The court that ruled this way is unfit to be called a “court”

Most of America is brainwashed by propaganda that claims marijuana (a plant that grows in the ground) is just as dangerous as the other drugs such as heroin and crack. However, there have been studies that prove that marijuana:

- Does not kill brain cells. In fact it stimulated brain cells.
- Is not addictive
- Does not cause cancer. In fact studies have shown that cannabis can stunt tumor growth and even defeat it.
- Does not negatively affect driving skills. In fact in makes you more concentrated and less likely to speed.
- Has never killed anyone. Alcohol, tobacco, legal drugs and even caffeine account for hundreds of thousands of deaths separately. Marijuana’s kill count is 0. Guess which one is illegal?

Alcohol promotes violence. Have you EVER heard of someone that got high off marijuana and went home and beat their wife? Didn’t think so. However, alcohol is legal and MJ is not. Hell, marijuana is used for medicinal purposes.

I highly suggest that any of you that have previously been brainwashed watch the documentary “The Union: The Business Behind Getting High”. It is on Netflix instant streaming or available on the internet. It addresses all these issues and uses sources such as Harvard professors, scientists, mayors, politicians, doctors, and many more. Or visit www.abovetheignorance.org

Most of America’s Presidents have smoked weed, including our current one. Many influential artists such as singers, actors, filmmakers, and more actively smoke marijuana. Still, hundreds of thousands of people who smoke this harmless plant are arrested, fined or incarcerated for it.

Police often say that they do not make the laws, they just enforce them. Well that maybe so, but perhaps next time you can let those harmless kids smoking weed off with a warning. And hopefully in November, if you are a California officer, you will vote yes for Proposition 19.

Please, if there are any officers browsing, I would love to hear their opinion.
freshkid… wow, I don’t even know where to start. you obviously learned all this in your DARE class and never researched for yourself.

weed contains ten times the cancer causing cells than cigs do. (not if you vaporize it)

weed DOES kill brain cells. (no it doesn’t that’s a fact. google “marijuana brain cells, or simply watch the doc I posted)

there have been injuries and deaths due to weed. (there has never been a single death in history due to marijuana alone)

there are drug wars over weed. (yes, because it’s illegal. there would be no drug wars over weed if you could buy it at your local store )

youre ignorant. (ironic, seeing as you refuse to look up the truth for yourself)
^ continued

youre a pothead. (yeah, and i’m apparently smarter than you. stop being a baby)

the chemical in weed called THC slows down your motor skills. (again, google it. a recent study showed that MJ does NOT harm your motor skills)

weed is apart of the drug trade which makes it as dangerous as any other substance. (already said this… it’s part of the drug trade precisely because it’s illegal. legalization would stop this)

only pothead says “Weed should be legal” (stop being an ignorant baby)

weed reduces learning ability. (I took my SATs high and scored in the 98th percentile. I am also a straight A student at NYU)

weed delays puberty. (lol what?)

i could go on and on about why weed should stay illegal (and no one wants to hear it because it’s all lies. go back and continue to be brainwashed)

my son is addicted to heroin and a couple of weeks ago he got so desperate that he actually ordered some drugs over the internet. he sent someone he didn’t know from adam and who lives on the other side of the country $1500. needless to say, he never got the stuff in the mail. i found out about this because he went to my wife crying and said he got ripped off. i know my son needs help and ive been trying for years, but is there any legal action that can be taken? or because of its illegal nature, must this whole ordeal remain hush hush? im just wondering, but either way, he wont see a dime from me.

Okay, I have had a very depressing life so far. My mother died giving birth to me, which caused my father to breakdown so he sent me away to live with my grandparents down in florida while my dad was in chicago, for 8 years I thought my grandparents were my parents and that my aunt was my sister, but on my 8th birthday, they took me to the cemetery to my mothers grave and I found out that my real mother was dead. I turned into a punk, and my grandparents kicked me out when I was 12 to live back with my dad and his new wife, and then I felt like I actually had a family and I loved my step mom very very much she was my best friend..then she died when I was 14, and my dad turned into an alcoholic and a drug abuser. I ran away from him, and lived in the streets sleeping in friends houses begging for change from 14 on..at 19 I met this girl that was my girlfriend until I was 21, then she broke up with me, around that time my father died too, and I started snorting cocaine and doing heroin, at 23 and got caught and sent to jail then I went back to court and they sent me to rehab and I just got out this feb…I’m 25 now, I sleep on the floor in the basement of my friends house that are crack addicts, with no job, no car, nothing…no family. I have nothing, and I’m considering suicide..I don’t know what to do anymore…there is nothing in my life worth living for…what should I do?

Let’s see I’ll start with the facts, I am 30 yrs old a recovered drug user and alcoholic with severe depression. When I was 5 yrs old my dad left, then reemerged when I was 16 only to O.D from heroin a couple of months later.

My mother who worked everyday of her life died in 2005 from a long battle with cancer which left me completely devastated and a emotional wreck. I”ve worked everyday since I droped out of high school but became a alcoholic and drug user to forget my problems but did’nt realize I was only compounding them by doing so. Today I’ve been clean and sober for 5yrs with few slips “sips” of the sauce but nothing major.

I’m going to night school to get my diploma, but I feel like life has already left me behind, I’ve been divorced and currently in a on & off again relationship with my ex wife who dumps me when the mood strikes her, she says she loves me but her actions tell me other wise. I need direction and hope, what can I do now at this point in my life???
