Our first amendment is Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press. Basically you are allowed to say what you want and nobody can saw anything about it. By banning the drugs we aren 't allowing our voice to be heard for others to be aware.

Why can 't you tell people about it?).This was said by Kaufman Seth who is the head chief of the American Advertising Federation in which he feels that we should be able to show off what new drugs we are selling to our…
Many people use drugs just for the effects, others however, will take a drug to try and increase performance, apart of a cultural ritual, or because of those around them using. Many college students will start taking Adderall or Ritalin to try and increase performance or to stay awake long enough to finish all of their work. Many Native American tribes used drugs like alcohol and tobacco as apart of rituals. You then have people who are apart of a great ecosystem of drug user, dealer, and seller…
Throughout many of the texts this semester, categorization of people is present throughout. Categorizing others, according to Donna Haraway, is “domination of ‘race’, ‘gender’, ‘sexuality’, and ‘class’” (Haraway 2003: 321). While for organizations sake, categories and labels seem to be very helpful, authors Donna Haraway and Philip K. Dick challenge this norm. They contest that such practices of categorization are archaic and harmful to the victims, and we need to break past these traditions. To…
For example, on a panel that controls several motors or on a motor control center, each disconnect must be clearly marked to indicate the motor to which each circuit is connected. In the figure below, the Number 2 circuit breaker in the panel box supplies current only to disconnect Number 2, which in turn controls the current to motor Number 2. This current to motor Number 2 can be shut off by the Number 2 circuit breaker or the Number 2 disconnect.” (OHSA.gov,…
Racial labeling is and has been a negative part of society as a whole that has grounds to improve on. In this story, Appiah talks about these different words that are being explained by him but also different people that have experienced these things in life and what they think about them.

describe something without using any identifying labels. As humans, we rely on language in order to make sense of the various things in our lives. Whether it is trying to describe the natural scenery around you or the woman you interacted with in the library earlier in the day. It probably would not be easy to leave out most labels and still get your point across. We need to include some adjectives to effectively describe the things around us, especially when speaking of people, but these words…
to the hustle and bustle of town. Meanwhile, the quiet of the neighborhood embraced me as I laid in the comfort of my bed. The typical morning danced in front of me, a soothing hush of colors and sunshine laid itself in front of me. That was until an abrupt knocking came from the front door.
