• A comment on Conversation: Where do we stand on on WikiLeaks?

  Oct 30 2012: Personally I am not against wikileaks though limiting the content that is displayed there wouldn´t be a bad idea since as previous answers have mentioned exposing personal and sensitive could result in harming people, countries , ideas etc...
  On the other hand wikileaks is a great tool to expose certain activities and truths about events that shouldn´t happen he way they do, for instance the apache killings of the movie collateral murderer.
  To sum up wikileaks is a very good platform to expose illegal and unhuman activities , and it can also help companies build up expectation for upcoming products and see the results of what their plans have on the public before even trying them. The problem is people making public everything they see fit, with ought considering the concecuences that this may have. How can you control the content? I have no Idea.

• A comment on Conversation: Why is Marijuana Illegal?

  Oct 19 2012: First of all it is not illegal all over the world, there are countries where it is illegal to sell, buy, and consume it. Other countries where it is legal to consume it and buy it but not to sell it. There are also cases of countries where it is illegal to buy or sell the drug but it is legal to consume it. At my school it is openly discussed if the drug should be illegal and even though I don´t understand what the medical, social or political reasons for it being illegal are I can tell you this: It is a drug, and even though some people may say that it is not harmful IT IS, you can easily tell the difference between someone before he starts smoking and after. The drug does make your brain understand less and think "worse" . Governments are supposed to protect people from harmful situations there for it is governments obligations to protect people from harmful drugs, specially when their use is not controlled by someone with the knowledge to make its use "safe". if there are other reasons why it is illegal i don´t care, but that one is enough for me.
