We have just been told that our next speech will be based on a particular issue that we are pationate about.  Well as most know, last time I took speech class my issue was suicide and that was something I felt strongly about.  I thouhgt, for just a second,  and the first thing that came to mind was my cousin Charlie.  Him and his older brother had an issue with drugs.  I think that drugs is a very big topic and so I am not sure how to narrow it down.  I am not going to post the story of my cousin because I will share it as part of my speech.  But the  issue they had ws dealing drugs,  So I think I want to research how kids get interacted with drugs in hte first place and what we can do to prevent it.   Let me know if this is a good start or if you have any better ideas for me!?!
