JK>TM> JK> First of all, we the people have to take our country back.  A
JK>TM> JK> bit hard when the nation is flooded with one mind altering
JK>TM> JK> drug or another. First it was Heroin, then cocaine, and now
JK>TM> JK> we are seeing more and more marijuna used by kids.
JK>TM>      Come on Jane, can you REALLY blame our troubles on the 5
JK>TM>      million illegal drug users ?   Or the 70 million adults who
JK>TM>      according to Gen McCaffrey smoke marijuana ?
JK>That is a symbol of just how far down we have slipped since the days
JK>when structure, discipline, and critical thinking were taught to our
JK>children along with reading, writing, and arthithmatic.
And you learnt spelling?
JK> Even the arithmatic is in question these days.
The word is Arithmetic.
JK>  My youngest's sixth grade
JK>class had no sixth grade math taught to it at all, this had to be
JK>learned in the junior high they went to.  And that would not have
JK>been possible had my husband and I not spotted this and gone to the
JK>folks in the junior high.
JK>The use of marijuana among teens is esculating at a rapid rate. 
Escalating is the word, Jane. BUT, you are half correct. Usage is going 
up recently, after an actual dip a couple of years ago. It's called 
cyclic change.
JK> It doubled, and then doubled again.
Nope, that is a lie.
JK> The number of high school seniors
JK>who have had sex, used alcohol and other drugs is much higher today
JK>than it ever was.
It's called population increase. More people, more use....but not per 
capita. You are a liar, or stupid...or both.
JK>And those are the kids who have stuck in school!  There are no
JK>statistics, other than arrest records, for those kids who haven't.
Haven't what?
JK>Kids who use marijuna don't tend to do well in subjects like math.
And you are straight .....and can't spell.
JK>If they take them in the first place.
Take what?
JK>This county has a wonderful track record for its kids.......half of
JK>them do not graduate from high school.
That is a lie.
JK>I'd say we have a long way to go to clean up the messes we've made in
JK>the past few years.
I think you just messed your pants, clean it up. You have NO idea what 
you are talking about. You are completely out of touch with reality. If 
this is the effect of "straight living" I want nothing to do with it. 
This is the kind of bilge that makes kids disbelieve any admonishments 
against pot use. Total fools speaking of "facts" like Jane does.
