		<description>Prison and jail rules regarding which prescriptions are a necessity would vary from state to state.
Your best bet would be to hire a lawyer and let him deal with this.</description>

		<description>So you&#039;re in jail but you have access to the Internet?
I guess a lot has changed since I spent time in the slammer.  I bet they make you wear off-the-rack jumsuits too, and probably give you only one choice of dessert at every meal.  Those bastards.  
The only way to get back at them is to die.  Then they&#039;ll have to do all that paperwork to get rid of your mangy druggy body.  Go cry somewhere else.  I think they should withhold your food and water too.</description>

		<description>Let&#039;s define DO
and
Let&#039;s define LOVE
When you do something you decide first.  Then, according to that decision, you act.  If you DO NOT decide, you have decided not to think and you act accordingly.  To do anything right we must know how to differentiate between right and wrong, between just and unjust, good and evil, real and unreal.  We have only one tool at our disposal to do this: our critical faculty, i.e. our ability to reason.
To be moral we must know the difference between good and evil.  Good is everything that helps one to live and helps one to improve one&#039;s life.  Evil is everything that is irrational and therefore does not help living, or improving anyone&#039;s life.
We all have different values.  Some are rational, some are irrational.  The one rational value that determines all the others and that is above all the others is life.  You cannot reason with someone who does not value his or your life!  The quality of life is the sum total of all the other values.  If one is sick and is terminally ill, his value for life may diminish.  If one suffers tremendously with no hope of recovering, he may even rationally wish to end his life, since life is the source of pain and nothing else, and as such, life has lost all its value.
Now let&#039;s turn to LOVE.
To love is a transitive verb.  This means that there is always an object after love.  Love without object makes no sense.  Love means value, giving value.  I love only what I value.  Life is something we all value, so we love life.  If I am taught as a child to love God, I value the idea of what I was told God is: peace, pleasure, undertsanding, comfort, affection, compassion, happiness, bliss, etc.  Notice that in speaking of God we have to substitute the word God (an idea) with a bunch of other ABSTRACT words without a real concrete object to love.  But here on earth, when we say we love something or somebody we mean a REAL thing or person.  If we value a beautiful car, we can say we love it;  if we value and admire someone, we can say we love that person.  We feel happy and excited with someone, if it&#039;s mutual, we spend our life together in love.  When we love someone and we must make a difficult decision, it is important to review what we mean by DOING and what we mean by LOVE.
Our actions depend on our decisions and our decisions depend on our reasoning and our concepts of what we think is moral.  In some circumstances it is moral to kill someone, if we must defend our life.  In some circumstances it is moral to help a person die, if that is what the person wishes.  To go against the law, even if the law is immoral, is a personal decision one has to make by considering everything, including if one is willing to pay the unpleasant consequences of one&#039;s action.</description>
