The reason for this, in my opinion, is the fact that the US Government wants the public to believe that marijuana is “bad” and should remain illegal. This “cover-up” began in the early 1900’s and still remains in effect today.

The law said you couldn’t sell or distribute alcohol legally but many found out that you could have a doctor’s permission to get whiskey from a drug-store for medical reasons. “Speakeasies of the Prohibition Era” an article by Kathy Weiser explains how all speakeasies and anything else to do with illegal alcohol actions led to the unhealthy era of America.
Failing to inform your partner that he/she is HIV positive with whom you are having sexual relations with in the state of Florida results in being charged with first degree murder. 3. At the time, the spreading of HIV infections was a major epidemic and resulted in a number of deaths from AIDS. 2. A diagnosis of an HIV infection is no longer tantamount to a death sentence, then continuing to prosecute people like Darren Chiacchia can no longer be justified.
. BUCHANAN-SALLY HEARSAY/NONHEARSAY Hearsay An out of court statement offered for evidence to prove the truth of the matter asserted. Here, Buchannan, and agent in the DEA, will testify that he spoke with Sally, whose son overdosed on cocaine. The facts do not directly indicate if Sally’s son received his cocaine from Danforth. However, Sally’s reaction of fainting when she saw the photograph of Danforth can be inferred that she recognized the Defendant, Danforth, who sold the drugs to her son who overdosed.
Since 1999, five NRL players have had action taken against them for recreational drug use.

Heroin was introduced as a cough medicine and was also used to help cure Morphine addiction (“Prescription Painkiller History”). Heroin actually is morphine. Once Heroin reaches the liver it turns into morphine but doctors didn’t realize it.

“Medical Marijuana is an Insult to Our Intelligence” This opinion piece, written by Charles Lane, starts off with the author describing how the Justice Department is dealing with people who smoke or sell pot. The article not only has statistical points but also the authors own opinion and humor.

This is because in every American mind, “the imaginary crack baby epidemic remains real”. In late 19th Century reports were published condemning the work of American Medical Association. People weren’t ready to accept the research results. They believed Cocaine using African American caused these problems. Also an organization called “CRACK” or “project prevention” were giving money to cocaine uses to get sterilized and then undergo an observation for a short period of time while receiving birth control medicine such as
“Criminals” will always find a way to get ahold of something they want, take a look at drugs for example it’s illegal but that hasn’t stopped these people from acquiring it. There was a similar event in the early 1900’s called Prohibition where the U.S decided to put a nationwide ban on the sale, production, importation, and transportation of alcoholic beverages and with this ban it put the government down in debt and crime rate rose up, and then “criminals” like Al Capone were all gaining from this making and selling of illegal alcohol. So by banning the right to bear arms from civilians would just be dejavu and almost mediocre. One might object that guns should be banned because of all the innocent people that have been killed like the kids and teachers from Sandy Hook and bring up statistics of how many people have been killed because of it but like I
