Run Baby Run

Now Nicky is preaching and telling everybody about his story about why he is an ex Mau Maus leader. Everybody used to think that Nicky would never change and always be a cruel killer. but look at him now. he has finished collage, has a wife and a new baby, and has a pretty good job. Even though Both of them only make $10 an hour they are happy with everything they have.

Hows this happend? Maria was in a depression and her boyfriend Jhonny came and and gave her a "fix" and she became obsessed with it and started to be a prostitue for money.

Question

What do you think of drugs like marjuana? do you think its okay?

Quote

"My girlfriends told me about their experiences with marijuana. They said it was okay as long as you didnt go onto something stronger."(P 244) 

Significance

This is important to me because even though people tell you experences with weed doesnt mean you should try it and be like them. Eventually after you start smoking you arent going to feel that sensation anymore so you are going to want something stronger.
