VIOLENCE IN OUR COMMUNITIES: A COMMENTARY

On Friday, February 10th we had another school shooting.  It happened during lunch hour in a cafeteria filled with elementary children happily eating lunch.  All we can ask is why?  The school is about 20 minutes from my doorstep and diagonally southeast as the crow flies.  I know several of the teachers and students that work and attend this school.  We share sports programs and the arts.  It is a good school.  Who would have thought such a tragedy would strike here and with a child so young carrying a gun and somehow getting it past the eyes of a watchful and caring staff.  It is heartbreaking. 

We don’t think of these things happening is small, rural communities like the one I live in or those children live in but it even happens here.  Why?

When I was growing up we only occasionally heard of a murder, maybe a few more robberies and off and on a case of domestic violence but it was rare, very rare, especially in rural communities and we never heard of such violence and tragedy in our schools.  What has gone wrong?

Where are all this hate, fear, bullying, desperation, violence, vengeance and moral decay coming from?  Is there anything we can do to stop it?  God help us.  I sure don’t have the answer.  I wish I did.

Maybe it is the broken families, lack of stability in the homes.  Both parents work, they have to.  They have no choice.  Maybe it is because there is only one parent to start with and you just can’t be mother and father and bread winner all in the same breath.  Parents are pushed beyond their limits and children end up ignored and without the discipline and moral upbringing they need.  We may love our children but we are too busy trying to survive to let them know just how deeply they are loved.  There is very little if any family unity anymore. 

The TV becomes the nanny, the babysitter and it doesn’t teach very high morals.  The same goes for the video games and internet games we and our children play and the media plays their part in the nightly news and the daily paper too as they lean toward scandals, violence and all manner of sensationalism with next to no reporting of the good that happens in the community, State, Nation or the world.  We are being fed a very heavy diet of negative with little to no positive.  Children learn what they live.

Schools push for the competitive edge, win no matter what it takes when it comes to sports or any other competition and academically every child still passes to the next grade and still gets some sort of award even if they haven’t truly learned or earned it…No child left behind.  It is sending mixed signals to the child.  It is okay to fail in one area or another.  Why do my best, be my best.  The effort is a waste of time.  We are all going to get some special award and our diploma anyhow.  So what if I can’t really read or write or even do basic math.  Machines will do it for me.  I don’t have to read a book.  I can listen to it or watch the movie, same difference, right?  Who really cares so long as I’m not in the way?  I don’t have to learn math, I have a calculator that with just the push of a button will give me the correct answer so why study.  Who really cares about the process?

Churches are not much if any better today.  They no longer teach morals and God given laws.  They are politically correct and just about anything goes.  That helps bring more money into the coffers when no one is offended in any way.  Many now speak of God as a higher power, not Lord God Almighty but whatever higher power you choose to believe in, be it the Judeo-Christian God or some other god or whatever power you choose, wind, rain, stars, the moon, the cobra, the cat or a tree.  It makes no difference as long as you believe in something beyond self.  Not every church is this way but a lot are today.  I’ve been there and listened to them.  God forbid we offend anyone and stand up for God and His teachings.  I’m sure God is very offended and that bothers me. 

No wonder children, our young adults don’t know right from wrong.  Oh some will blame it on Satan and his legions of fallen angels called demons (You know, the devil made me do it.) and that may be correct to a point but it is each of us who make the choice.  We decide for our self how we choose to behave.  How can we choose when we are not taught morality in the first place?

We are a society that has become segmented, segregated and morally corrupt.  Drug and alcohol abuse is no longer just ghetto garbage; it is rampant in the highest echelons of our society and affects everyone from the homeless wino in some back alley to the CEO of our multibillion dollar corporations to the government leaders of our communities and nations.  We reap just what we sow. 

It is sad when we see young children becoming so disconnected with reality and life and living and the wonder of being human and alive that they no longer feel life is worth their next breath and they put a gun to their head or their neighbors or peers and squeeze the trigger.  BANG and it is over in a split second.  No more worries, no more fears, no more feeling lost and alone, no more being bullied and belittled, no more nothing.  Is this what our society as come down to?  God, I hope not.

Maybe we shouldn’t have thrown God out.  Just a thought on my part. 

The neurologist and author of “Your Brain on Food”, Gary Wenk, suggested that eating certain foods, your brain releases chemicals that produce the same effects as some known drugs.

The researcher explained that the brain does not differentiate between drugs and foods because both are metabolized into energy. “With the passage of time and the development of the food industry, the line separating the drug of food is increasingly blurred”.

He also said that the food they produce effects that are immediately consumed in high doses such as coffee, sugar or tea which are compared with drugs such as heroin, alcohol, nicotine and marijuana.

Regarding the relationship of food to the mood, said: “It showed that if consumed little tryptophan (amino acid found in eggs, dairy, cereals) we get depressed and angry more often.”

“The theobromine, cocoa butter, cocoa powder and magnesium salts have different effects on the brain. A small number of women, the combination of these ingredients are produced anger and rage, although it is normal that they generate a pleasurable effect by phenylethylamine, similar to the active ingredient of marijuana, “he said.

In addition, Wenk said that eating fatty foods improves mood as it helps control pain. But he warned about the boomerang effect: when filled with fat cells release chemicals that enter the brain and back to affect mood ending in a depression.

On the other hand, argued that foods rich in antioxidants like fruits, vegetables, fish, olive oil, cinnamon, nicotine, caffeine, beer and red wine benefit, long time, the person who consumes it all protect against the brain aging.

College students have always used stimulants to study all night long. Now mixing alcohol with stimulants to drink more and drink longer has become very popular.

Alcohol Stimulant Drink Mix

Putting caffeine into alcoholic drinks is nothing new. A product with the name Four Loko became very popular several years ago with 135 mg of caffeine and 12% alcohol in the same beverage.

After numerous incidents of college students going on a Four Loko drinking binge that resulted in several deaths, many college campuses banned the drink. Finally, fearing FDA (Food and Drug Administration) action, the company Phusion, who makes Four Loko took the caffeine out of their alcoholic drinks. Today the FDA has banned caffeine or herbal stimulants with alcohol in the same beverage.

Having an energy drink with alcohol in the same drink is actually a contradiction, since alcohol is a depressant causing your body to fight the stimulant in the same drink. It is not healthy to force your body in two directions.

Drinking More Alcohol with Stimulants

A 2010 study conducted in Canada revealed that college students who drank alcohol without taking any type of stimulants drank on average 4.7 drinks. When college students combined an energy drink or stimulant along with the alcohol, they drank an average of 8.6 drinks [1]. Mixing alcohol with stimulants almost doubled the amount of alcohol students drank and that is dangerous.

Alcohol and Adderall

Where there is a will there is a way and mixing stimulants with alcohol is not hard to do. It isn’t hard to drink one or two 5-hour energy drinks while drinking alcohol. That is about the same thing as mixing alcohol and caffeine in the same can.

A new craze has college students and teens mixing the prescription drug Adderall and alcohol so they can drink all day and night. Adderall is a prescription drug that is usually prescribed for ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) and also narcolepsy. In other words it is a prescription amphetamine, a stimulant.

Of course alcohol has its own side effects and so does Adderall. Adderall has the same side effects that any other stimulant does. Adderall can increase blood pressure which can lead to stroke, heart attack and sudden death.

The Health Risks of Mixing Alcohol with Stimulants

Mixing alcohol with a stimulant like Adderall can mask the effects of alcohol, causing the person drinking alcohol to feel as if they are not drunk and in complete control of their senses and reaction times.

Since Adderall is a stimulant and alcohol is a depressant, you are pulling your body in two different and opposite directions. Adderall can raise the heart rate and raise blood pressure. Alcohol can also raise blood pressure as well. That is one health risk.

The main health risk that concerns parents and college officials is the fact that teens think they can continue to drink and drink more alcohol while the Adderall or some other stimulant is masking the actual effects of the alcohol.

This can lead to binge drinking which can lead to alcohol poisoning and possible death. You might be thinking this is overly pessimistic, but there are statistics linking college students who had gone out for a night of partying and mixed alcohol with Adderall leading to death by alcohol poisoning.

Alcohol and Stimulants Leads to Death

There have been recent reports of deaths at colleges around the country due to alcohol poisoning where evidence points to mixing alcohol with stimulants. Police found text messages on one student’s cell phone that mentioned trying to buy Adderall and texts that said he wanted to go out and get drunk and do “Addy”. Addy being shorthand for Adderall.

Taking stimulants with alcohol gives a false sense of not being drunk, and that is a major health risk and danger. This also leads to false sense of being in control and driving drunk. The percentage of deadly accidents related to drunk drivers is actually up instead of down considering all of the media attention and police actions trying to stop drunk drivers.

Drinking alcohol with stimulants leads to the false confidence that the alcohol is not affecting the person drinking. But the blood alcohol content (BAC) is still just as high with or without the stimulants.

Passing out is one way the body tells a person, enough alcohol, I can’t take anymore. Fooling the body with stimulants while drinking alcohol is forcing the body to take in more and more alcohol, but the stimulants are not countering what the alcohol is actually doing to a person’s brain and body. This leads to alcohol poisoning, which can lead to death. 

Conclusion

Mixing stimulants with alcohol is very dangerous. It short circuits the body’s defense mechanism and causes a false sense of being sober and alert. Do not fool yourself into thinking stimulants counter alcohol, because they do not.

An old friend may stimulate your life; this will make you happy and further an important wish later on.

 Love Affairs: Someone much older or much younger may enter your life soon. Don’t look for love these days; there is plenty to gain in yourself, and the stars want you to be in isolation for a while. You will feel spiritual and some of the questions of life will trigger your imagination. Indians affairs will strive. If you were born in October an Aries, a Gemini or an Aquarius will need you.  A friend born in June may be interested in you.

Environment: During the last breath of the waning moon, Mother Nature may become capricious and surprise us with bad weather soon.

The psilocybin mushroom is another thing that has been studied and found to have medicinal use. However, it also has hallucinogenic effects, and as such it is illegal to use in many places. I am not writing this to argue about the pros and cons or for the legalization of these substances.

So, why then, you may ask, am I writing about this topic?

I am writing to say that I do support medicinal research on these compounds, I just don’t condone misuse/abuse.

But there is so much more to look at other than just taxing it.  How would the government regulate marijuana sales?  Would they sell it in convenience stores and liquor stores or would it be something you can buy on a shelf in Wal-Mart?  Would you go to jail for driving under the influence of marijuana and if so how would they know that you are under the influence?  Would they give you a drug test, because marijuana stays in your system for 30 days?  Would you get charged for growing your own marijuana?  Or would it be as simple as getting a permit or license to do so?

Legalization would be great for the US.  It would put many dangerous drug dealers off the streets.  People say oh you want to legalize a narcotic you are promoting drug use.  But in all reality think about it, have you ever known a person to kill someone because they smoked marijuana?  Marijuana users are generally happy people.  You don’t hear of people over dosing on marijuana.  I think that if regulated properly just like alcohol and cigarettes marijuana could really help boost our economy and lead to less people being incarcerated for smoking a completely natural plant.

Early this week, Demi Moore was rushed to the hospital after she reportedy had a seizure. Those that were around her stated that she seemed as though she was shaking a lot, so they took her to the hospital immediately. While those close to the actress aren’t giving any specific details, there have been rumors that certain drugs were involved with what ended up happening to her. 

This isn’t the first time that Demi ended up in a rehab center, although there have only been two known rehab stints that we know of. The most current one follows the divorce, and it is believed it was brought on by the use of perscription drugs and possibly also whip-its, which is inhaling the gas Nitrus Oxide.

Forensic toxicology is an integral part of many criminal investigations. A forensic toxicologist plays a key role in death investigations specifically, where the body is analyzed for toxins and poisons.

There are an innumerable amount of tests that may be conducted by the toxicologist in order to identify and quantify the toxins present in the body. The toxicity of any substance found by the toxicologist, and whether it could have caused death, must then be determined. This begins with a screening process and any results must be confirmed with further testing.

Identify Toxins Present

The toxicologist is tasked with identifying drugs or toxins present within the body. Body fluids, tissues, and organs are tested for toxins. When looking for these substances, the toxicologist must be skilled in identifying not only a wide variety of poisons or toxins, but also their metabolites. (Grippo, 2001)

This means that the toxicologist must know how the drugs are metabolized and excreted from the body in order to find evidence of toxins. With the infinite amount of possible drugs and toxins that are out there, where is the starting point? First, the toxicologist must narrow the possible drugs down by conducting screening tests.

Screening Tests Narrow Down Results

Presumptive tests screen the sample in order to narrow down the possibilities for the toxicologist. Some of these screening tests include color tests, microcrystalline tests, thin layer chromatography, and gas chromatography. (Grippo, 2001) The toxicologist typically analyzes biological samples for the presence of many chemical compounds, including drugs, alcohol, and poisons.

Biological specimens may include samples taken from living subjects and deceased individuals, usually bodily fluids, tissues, or organs. (Bucholtz & Lewis, 2005) Sometimes the toxicologist may be given a sample of an unknown substance, suspected to be a drug, to identify for law enforcement.

“Color” Tests

A series of color tests may be carried out on a sample in order to find a preliminary result; for example, the Marquis test can indicate the presence of either opiates or amphetamines based on the color of the reaction. Opiates will cause a purple reaction, while the amphetamine drug family will turn an organish-brown. (Saferstein, 2009)

There are many color tests that can be used as a basic screening tool. If background information is available, this can help determine what tests to use; if not, then the toxicologist is essentially attempting to find a needle in a haystack. Other color tests include the Dillie-Koppanyi test, which looks for barbiturates, the Duquenois-Levine detects marijuana, the Van Urk is used for suspected LSD, and the Scott test is useful for the detection of cocaine. (Saferstein, 2009)

More Screening Tests

Microcrystalline testing is another screening tool for the toxicologist. With this method, the sample and a special chemical reagent are placed on a microscope slide. A chemical reaction occurs and based on the size and shape of the crystals, the drug’s identification can be presumed. (Saferstein, 2009)

Chromatography Provides Further Clarification

Finally, both Thin Layer and Gas Chromatography separate the sample out into its various components on a plate, using both a stationary and moving phase, which can then be analyzed further. Thin Layer Chromatography uses liquid as the moving phase to separate the sample, while Gas Chromatography uses gas for the moving phase instead. (Saferstein, 2009)

With each test conducted on the sample, the more certain the toxicologist can be about the identity of the substance. The use of a series of screening tests is strong evidence that can indicate the identity of the drug, but further confirmation testing is usually required.

Mass Spectrophotometry Helps Identify Substances

Although chromatography tests are not considered to be conclusive on their own, when combined with Mass Spectrophotometry, an exact chemical makeup can be identified. A Spectrophotometer produces a graph of the absorption of the chemical makeup and “…can identify a substance by exposing it to a specific type of electromagnetic radiation.” (Saferstein, 2009, p. 310)

When the toxicologist combines Gas Chromatography with Mass Spectrophotometry, the chemical makeup of a sample can be identified even in very small amounts, which allows for conclusive findings. The GC/MS test is commonly used as the final step in the process of identifying an unknown drug or toxin.

Determine Toxicity and Balance Variables

Once the toxin is identified, the toxicologist must verify the percentages of the toxin present in the body and decide if that quantity is toxic. When attempting to determine toxicity, age, physical condition, drug tolerances, and possible drug interactions must be considered. (Bucholtz & Lewis, 2005) Interpreting test results is one of the most important tasks for the forensic toxicologist to complete accurately.

These results are recorded in a final report that is used to aid in the investigation. The results are essentially used to determine if the presence of toxins contributed to the crime or death and if they were administered in a suspicious manner. Criminalists work together to solve a case, each person on the team completes their piece of the puzzle to contribute to the resolution of the case.

Mexico, itself, is a “haven” for those involved in criminal activity, especially, when it comes to many of the endeavors involving drugs. Here in America, you will find a few who do make it their life’s work, but not like it is in, you guessed it, MEXICO. So where Vicente Fox gets off stating this supposed FACT, is nothing short of DELUSIONAL. Mexico has a lot of dedicated, honest, hard working people in law enforcement, but THEN, you also have far too many “within” who are not doing their jobs, simply for the rewards of it. Many do it, as the insiders to the cartels and many do it for you guessed it. The MONEY. From an economic standpoint, it is hard to resist being crooked in Vicente Fox’s country and unlike America, you are not only going to find a few there whose only ambition is to go astray, but you have many who are CORRUPT. Does Mexico do anything about it? Of course, they endeavor to do so, but when you have the kind of economy Mexico has and you have the temptation of all that drug money, you are bound to have problems keeping ANYONE, “honest.”

I know, because in my youth, I myself made money from drugs. In the 1960’s there were not many of us as teenagers who did not make a few extra bucks from selling or buying drugs, only to turn around and resell them for a profit. Even I admit, that it is a lucative profession, though I never really thought of it, “as” a “profession.” I made runs for other dealers, and even made trips to bring back products that other dealers sold. So yes, I know what Vicente Fox’s speech is all about, still, his lack of involvement with the U.S. to fully understand that this problem is not one of “country,” is disappointing, because afterall, there is one astounding fact ex President Fox has neglected in his sarcasm. “HIS” own countries political leaders neglects to address the needs of his peoples within Mexico. Many would not turn to desperate measures to support themselves, “if” the countries “leaders” would do “their” jobs to provide economic stability in Mexico.

It’s sad to think that so many million lives ARE lost to the drug trade. It is also sad that there are so many lives lost to economic needs, when Mexico’s own citizens have to make that desperate decision to jeopardize their lives to come to America. My grandparents did this in 1915 on my mother’s side and when I heard Vicente Fox make the delusional accusations he made, it hit home. The problem of drugs within the borders of Mexico are NOT because America has too many addicts, but because Mexican politicans turn a blind eye to their own peoples needs. So those people turn to crime, which involves the drug trade, and also risking their live to come here. A few, of course, go even further by trying to smuggle in drugs into the United States for the cartels.

Still the answer is not as simple as this ex President of Mexico made it appear to find the United States to be it’s scapegoat to it’s own economic problems. What Mexico needs and has needed for a long time, is people within it’s own political systems to give a damn about it’s own, so they will not seek ways to support themselves, including having to turn to crime. America is not to blame for Mexico’s problems with drugs as Vicente Fox’s “wish” it were. Mexico’s problem with drugs and crime are MEXICO’S problem and ones they will always deal with for as long as it’s leader’s deluded themselves to believe that they can blame everyone else for their state of the economy. Until “they” deal with it personally, they will always have problems with even their best turning to being corrupted by the need for wants of a better life, for themselves, and their loved ones.
