habanera I think in some cases abortion is the better solution than carrying out a child that has absolutely no perspectives, for example if the mother is very young, still goes to school etc.. There are so many childs out there that are unwanted and therefore unloved....

Drug testing

WeenitsMom @WeenitsMom (492) • United States 8 Mar 07

Do you think it's acceptable to test for drugs when someone is applying for a job? I think it's horrible. To me, drug testng is just one more way for employers to tell you what youcan and can not do in your leisure time. What do...

habanera IMO, employers shouldn't do any kind of drug testing. A person is not necessarily an addictive just because a drug screening shows positive results at a given time. Marijuana for example stays for weeks inside the body and the drug test won't tell when the...

Was Hitler's regime a hoax?

fotychic @fotychic (318) • United States 1 Dec 06

I have heard people say that Hitler and his Nazi's and everything that went down in Germany during WWII was all a hoax, that the Jews made up for sympathy. Do you believe this? It seems highly improbable to me that anyone could...

habanera I don't understand how anyone could believe that the murdering of 6 million people could be a hoax! In Germany and the countries formerly occupied by Hitler you still can find so much evidence of these terrifying crimes. You just have to visit one of the...

salsabila @salsabila (25) • Indonesia 2 Mar 07

E-book (electronic book) is a book that you can download from internet. You can download some of them by pay some money -like you buy a manual book, but also there are many for free. What do you think about it? What's your choice,...

habanera I'll always prefer a real book. I cannot imagine to read a novel on my laptop, it won't be same same relaxing experience as lying on the bed reading a good book.

habanera I studied in Havana for one year and I liked it very much. Yes, it is very rundown and certainly you will wonder how people can live in the houses you'll see there. But this city has some kind of special spirit and in general the Cubans are really nice people....

habanera I enjoyed the movie very much. Benicio is one of my favorite actors but in The Way of the Gun I also liked Juliette Lewis and James Caan. Unfortunately, the film doesn't seem to be as popular as it deserves.

GinFin @GinFin (59) • Belgium 25 Dec 06

Do you think that kids should see this movie at school?

school

habanera I think although this movie might be quite shocking it is a good lesson on drug abuse. Maybe the edited version is more appropiate for school than the Director's Cut.
