IgorLugansk [536]3 years ago

America is at war.  We have been fighting drug abuse for almost a century.  Four Presidents have personally waged war on drugs.  Unfortunately, it is a war that we are losing.  Drug abusers continue to fill our courts, hospitals, and prisons.  The drug trade causes violent crime that ravages our neighborhoods.  Children of drug abusers are neglected, abused, and even abandoned.  The only beneficiaries of this war are organized crime members and drug dealers.

<span>The United States has focused its efforts on the criminalization of drug use and trafficker's coming from Mexico.  The government has spent billions of dollars trying to get rid the supply of drugs coming into our country.  These intervention efforts and law enforcement attempts to control the drugs have not been successful nor have they met with decreases in the availability of drugs in America. There are actually more drugs now than ever before! Apart from being super expensive, drug law and drug enforcement has been counterproductive, it does not work.  Our current drug laws need to be reviewed and revamped so that they are more effective or are a deterrent to those to bring drug into the US.  The United States needs to shift spending from law enforcement and penalization to education, treatment, and prevention.</span>

Spanish conquistadors brought their horses with them when they crossed the Atlantic.
Mama L [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is C. An unintentional consequence of the arrival of horses to America brought by Spanish conquistadors was that by the mid-1700s, the Plains Indians were expert horsemen who relied on their herds for buffalo hunting and trade.

Explanation:

The horse was introduced to the American continent with the arrival of the European conquerors in 1492. The European military used these animals as a means of transport, a work tool and even for military purposes.

Once introduced to the continent, this animal gave Europeans a considerable advantage in battle, as it provided faster mobility and a higher position from which to fight; its use was one of the strategic keys of the victory of the conquerors over the natives.

This animal, once introduced in the continent, began to reproduce and form increasingly numerous groups. Both Europeans and natives used it; In the case of the latter, who lived a life more in contact with nature, hunted and worked the land, the horse became an indispensable tool for day to day activities. Thus, as an indirect consequence of its introduction by Europeans, the horse became a fundamental element of the lives of Native Americans.
