In the article "Boulder high schoolers mix it up over a marijuana deal gone bad" by Howard Pankratz what matters is that high schoolers are getting involved in illegal drugs. Also that they want it so bad that they will get in a fight because they cant get it. Police say that the dealer put the buyer in a choke hold until he gave him his money. So this goes to show that all drugs involve are violence and cheating people out of there money. I think that this is something that needs to be fixed becasue these kids are risking there lives to get the drugs and also with the drugs. This is an issue that needs to be solved or more and more of our teens will die from it.

  1. A lot of the time you're right. Drug dealers are tough because they often deal with rough people. These students are lucky that there were no weapons involved. Many people of all ages have died over drug deals. My question to you: Is it really worth it? Is the quick fix that a drug gives you worth risking your life when you buy it? How can society raise awareness over this issue?
