Drugs Today!!

Did you know that the abuse of drugs goes up each year? Drugs are much easier to get these days, it doesn't matter what kind of drugs people manage to get them. Although we live in a state where illegal drugs is still a serious issue the state has legalized the use of marujuana for its medicinal purposes. Some people are in favor of this law and some are disturbed by the decision of legalizing marijuana, and a big question people are considering is: Does permitting medical marijuana amount to ''Back-door legalization'' of pot? some support  allowing the use of marijuana for medicinal purposes, but some say that this has nothing to do with medecine and has eveything to do with attempting to evade controlled-substance laws. The use of illegal sustances is a very questioned topic nowdays, because more and more people are being affected. Just think of how many persons have died or have lost friends due to these substances. Even though there are help centers and all kind of help people need to treat themselves there are still many problems related to drug abuse, and this is what worries the community because we don't know if we are doing enough to confront this problem or if this has just become a world wide problem.
