Posted by notbanned at June 12, 2016

26th March 2016 was the tenth anniversary of Scotland's once-dreaded smoking ban, and we look at how the ban came about and how public life is today with the ban. Smoking is the primary preventable cause of ill health and premature death in this country, and each year tobacco use is associated with around a quarter of all deaths and over 50,000 hospital admissions. Annual costs to Scotland's health service from tobacco-related illnesses may be higher than £500 million each year, so the ban made total sense - but it wasn't without it's doubters.

Therein lies an emotional – sometimes vicious - debate. On one side, traumatized families and public safety advocates. On the other, a powerful group of lobbyists who say pit bulls are the most misunderstood breed of dogs and are no more dangerous than any other pets. Canada has a patchwork of laws and regulations – Ontario has a ban, Quebec is considering one.

Alabama’s abortion ban, the most extreme in America, would criminalise abortion providers and prevent even women who have been raped from aborting.

Posted by Tutorial at Jan. 2, 2021

"There are few injustices more notorious, ignored and ingrained in history than that of the land stolen from the Native people of North America. When European invaders came into the areas now known as the United States and Canada, they dominated the land, killing many of its original inhabitants, took advantage of resources and made countless empty promises. This poor treatment lasted for centuries and continues today. Rarely, native groups attempt to stand up against injustices inflicted on their land and their people and often times the results are unsavory and violent.
