Recently on t.v., they advertised a childs version of pain killers fro 
'active' children. This country has long been known for acceppted use of
drugs, and in fact encourages drug use. But when those in power decide a
drug is bad, unsafe or they just do not like it, it then becomes a 
controlled substance. My main point is that those who are in 'power' 
elected or otherwise are not automatically right nor wrong. We as "free'
people are being slowly legislated out of our 'freedoms'. Forced to wear
seatbelts. Forced to wear helmets. forced to not smoke ciggarrettes, 
which as of YET are not illegal. Soon, with the aids epidemic, we will 
be forced to wear condoms and only engage in unprotected sex when and if
the government decides we are "safe' and they need another warm body.Oh 
yes, lets not forget forced to have car insurance. Yes, we insure our 
cars by force, but not our health. Be poor with no insurance and see 
what kind of care you recieve! Freedom is not nor never was free. One 
has to fight for freedom. Try to find the book Little Black Sambo! Can 
you say literature reppression? It offends some, so it is now banned. 
How far to the next step of "we do not like the color red{or choose your
own} therefore the color is now illegal. Sure that comparison is silly, 
the book offends people of color, or Africans, or Nigerians or Blacks or
whatever they decide this year it is ok to be called. Try just calling 
them people. Silly comparison? perhaps. Or not. At this point, we still 
have the freedom to decide for ourselves. How much longer will that 
last? Oh, I heard that some of Charles Dickens books may be banned, for 
the "n" word. Can you say Fahrenheit 451? I thought you could. Have a 
pleasant day, and watch out, the next 'freedom' attacked and banned may 
be on of your own beliefs!  P.S. Anyone know of a natural unbanned 
method of headache relief? P.S Helmet laws still _ _ _ _.
