Some people agree or disagree about marijuana being legal. Most observers think that drug related crime is an impotant issue. Daniel Patrick Moynihan thinks that we are required to choose between a crime problem and a public health problem.
Some people think intensifying the current law enforcement efforts against drugs is best. Marijuana, which is considered to be much less addictive or dangerous than cocaine or heroin, has been the subject of a large part of the debate over drug legalization. People believe if marijuana is a to legal that people will use harder drugs too.
Most observers think that drug related crime and addiction are pressing social problems. Many of those in favor of marijuana have stated that they are against the legalization of harder drugs. They think marijuana is not a bad drug.
Daniel Patrick Moynihan (D.N.Y) has observed that with drugs we are required to choose between a crime problem and a public health problem. The marijuana legalization movement has become vocal again, pushing for legislation to reduce penalties for marijuana use.They want to legalize it as a medical treatment for seiously ill people.

Personal reflection
What I've learned so far? So far, I learned about what on the Sept 11,01 and since that day nobody has been safe on their future. Even at school their are problems with safety because students have been bringing knifes or other weapons. Also in airports there are guards that are checking if people are bringing weapons and bombs so that people would be safe when their flying.
What I understand and don't understand?
I understand that people wants to be safe so nothing would happened to them. Also at school teachers make sure that students don't fight and bring weapons. Some school has cameras for safety.I don't understand why the War in Iraq is still going on because we're losing a lot of people lives. I think everybody should be treated the same not as animals. All people are humans, of god until we die.
How I've feeling about the topic?
I feel sad about Homeland Security because we're not sure if safe are not. The only thing, I want is that everybody would be safe and everything would stop with the War in Iraq and to be in peace.
What I am still wondering?
I'm wondering how long before this is going to be over. I hope this some day would ended.
I think every person in the world should be safe and have peace and freedom.

Do you think were safe now?
Do you think we are now safer from terror attack than we were before Sept. 11, 2001? Their are still lot of gaps in our home security. They have 22 different information gathering agencies. They get confused about who is getting which information.
The USA has been though this before. In 1812 Americans have to fight British invasion. During World War 1 and 2 the USA was worried about Germans sneaking into the USA. Then there was an attack on Pearl Harbor. This was all National Security threats.
The people of the USA are feeling afraid of terrorsim. New Yorkers are specially anxious. They are trying to predict the future of terrorist activity. At the airport there are still going to be lot of security procedures.

Introduction
Homeland Security
What is the U.S. doing to make the people safe? Everybody has to be safe, a right as a citizen to be safe at home, school, church and malls. How the U.S. is trying to end wars and terrorism. They're checking people phone records. They're checking at the airports guards are checking for bombs and liquids if they bring. Even at ports guards are also checking bombs. In the airports and at ports are checking people to be safe and they don't bring things that are violent so that nobody is hurt.
How are school trying to be more safe? Students are not allowed to bring knives. Sharp tools or guns when their at school. The doors are locked more often for security. They also have security cameras so if students fight or someone stranger wants to do bad thing in the office they check whats going on .
I chose this topic because it gives me ideas about how people in the world have to be safe. It was really interesting to me.
