The purpose of Memorial Day is to remind us that the freedoms we enjoy in the United States (and often take for granted) have a price—a price that is paid by the uniformed men and women of our armed forces. Take a moment today to reflect, and remember those who fell in battle to defend this great land.

“It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather we should thank God that such men lived.” — George S. Patton

A drug is not bad. A drug is a chemical compound. The problem comes in when people who take drugs treat them as a license to behave like an asshole.
