Sen. Tim Grendell, a Chesterland Republican is introducing a bill that would require any Ohioan receiving cash assistance to pay for a drug test. If clean, they would receive the assistance and be reimbursed for the drug screen. His bill mirrors a Florida law. This is one of those pieces of legislation that sounds...
There is almost complete consensus that addiction is a disease. The debate has been over whether it’s a psychological condition treated by a psychiatrist in conjunction with the A.A. model, or is it a physical problem treated with the medical model. In an article in the New York Times, Douglas Quenqua takes a look...
I have written before about the scourge of new designer drug’s that mimic the high of marijuana, cocaine, and hallucinogens. That does not include the prescription drugs that are over prescribed and creating addicts from the genetically willing and those in legitimate pain.

Today the St. Paul Pioneer Press had a front page article on the party that caused 11 people to overdose and led to the death of Trevor Robinson. The article is the retelling of a tragedy that was never supposed to happen. It is a close up look at how those who were involved...
In Minnesota during a 2007 Senate hearing on legalizing small amounts of marijuana for medicinal purposes a citizen gave the following testimony. Sh#%@$n Pak^*&n, of Brooklyn Park, suffers from Tourette Syndrome and admits he’s already using marijuana for medicinal purposes. Pak^&*n says traditional medication leaves him in a zombie-like state. “Smoking a little marijuana...
The following advertisement was found in the back of the City Pages, a news and arts magazine that comes with the Sunday Pioneer Press. As I have written before, many nefarious entrepreneurs are selling poisonous materials under the guise that they are for something else. K2 is potpourri which mimics the sensation of marijuana...
