Part 1: Suggestions people had for my project were narrow it down to one drug and talk about percentages maybe more. Talk about productivity of previous injection sites. See if safe injection sites in Mexico and America were actually stopping people from shooting up in the streets. Based off the class feedback I think changes I’m going to make is narrow down the drugs just to heroin and maybe study a safe injection to see how it’s helping or how it’s not helping. So maybe I can narrow down my question a little more by talking about a drug through the injection site. Part 2: what different approaches have Mexico and America taken to combat heroin in safe injection sites? what’s the safe injection site doing to help people with substance abuse?

introduction of myself and then  Drug addiction is a very serious predicament not only in Mexico and the US, but all around the world. The reason why I am choosing mexico and the US to compare and contrast is to show the approaches to this topic from both sides. Both areas have mainly the same routine, by sending drug abusers to rehabilitation centers until the patient leaves or is cleared. There are much more abusers in america, though drugs are mainly produced in mexico, leading to an increase in help lines and people reaching out in america. The interest i take in this is the unending battle against drugs and other related substances in the world and the treatment centers that are there to help and reach out to these lost abusers. Treatment centers play a very important role and save lives day after day. completely explain my project after those facts

Two journals A Qualitative View of Drug Use Behaviors of Mexican Male Injection Drug Users Deported from the United States Drug tourists and drug policy on the U.S.-Mexican border: An ethnographic investigation of the acquisition of prescription drugs Part 2 Both theses articles are not on the exact same thing. The researchers however found similar and different concepts. In the “A Qualitative View of Drug Use Behaviors of Mexican Male Injection Drug Users Deported from the United States” journal he defined the concept that Male deportees frequently felt that their drug use behaviors or involvement in the drug economy in the United States contributed to their deportation. While the “Drug Tourist…” journal defined a concept of group appeared to be predominantly poor, working-class whites from Texas and adjacent states who live within several hours drive. Both journals are similar concepts because they both target those of the poor or those around drug economy. My first articles argume

Oren M. Gur Dr. Glenn Sterner Professor Oren M. Gur studies Criminal Justice. He has research interest in Substance use, Privilege, Pretrial supervision, Interpersonal violence, Policing, Criminal justice technologies, Research methods, Neutralization theory. He also does research studies involving students in policing with montgomery police. He has many publications if you look at his bio. For example, his most recent in 2017 was Terrorism as self-help: Accounts of Palestinian youth incarcerated in Israeli prisons. Journal of Contemporary Criminal Justice. Policing is the most intriguing to me because it’s such a broad topic. Also I find substance abuse most intriguing because there is so many things happening today in this world with drugs. Drugs are causing major deaths from overdosing to just passing out and losing your mind. If I had to devote a long time studying something in this field it would probably be policing neighborhoods and crime. I would want to do that because I want
