    Anti-Marijuana ads

    Anyone else think the recent batch of anti-marijuana ads are really stupid? Especially the one during the Superbowl where they blame a teenage pregnancy on marijuana.

    Back in my day we had the "Just say no" ad campaign, now *that* was an effective anti-drug campaign!!

          Yes they are incredibly retarded Beer is responsible for WAY more tennage deaths and pregnacy then Pot will ever be. And the one about 1 out of 3 reckless drivers that were drug tested were positive i would be willing to bet that thats because they testwed them because they suspected that they were high or they tested postive because they had smoked a few days ago. By the way I smoke just about every night and im still doin good in school not the best but just as good as i always have so theres my rant for them month.

          *EDIT* Bobs been spending too much time at t-shirt hell
          About the terrorism funding from pot i mean come on most of what we buy here was grown here im mean Cali Tenn and Ky bring in about 15 million dollers from pot every year. Terrorism gets more funds from us driving then it does from weed.

                You know whats a lot worse than doing illegal drugs?

                Driving trucks and vehicles with less than 30mpg. My dad's expedition is responsible for the manufacture of 30 pipe bombs a year. He should have just kept his F-250 with the 460 and drove 8 miles per gallon of gasoline.

                Maybe if we keep driving our gas hogs then we'll eventually buy all their oil and we won't ever have to worry about them again.


                My truck is louder than yours. A lot louder.

                    I think that blaming marijuana for terrorism is as silly as blaming religion.

                    Personally... I blame underage-stupidity.

                        It's legallity is a whole different issue that I'm not gonna touch on..

                        However, the commercials do have a point. What they say *is* true, might be stretching it a bit, but every word of it is true. Something to thinkg about.

                          Oh and when did they lie? I saw nothing but truth in them. Sure they are cheesey, but almost every commercial is.

                            Yes i guess these things are all true about marijuana:

                            You *might* run over a child.
                            You *could* get pregnant.
                            It *possibly* could fund terrorists.
                            You *may* shoot your best friend.
                            You *could* be date raped.
                            You *might* even become the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.

                              It says you "could" be funding terrorism. All these things could happen if you smoke marijuana or if you don't. BUT there is a much better chance of this happening if you are high on marijuana. They tell you what the drug does and what you could be getting yourself into. Its an informational commercial thats put there to try and get America back on track, this country is in a friggin downward spiral, and we don't need more crazy potsmokers/crackheads/drunks/whatever out there.

                              ENDO!
