actually you're wrong, people will only ever know what they learn. if they are told their entire lives (and never had anyone around to raise doubt, which happens in alot more people than doesn't, atleast at younger years) that "this does this and that and can kill you and blah blah blah" then that's what they'll believe. any non-tokers that don't know any diffrent, or have friends to tell them otherwise or even look the shit up for themselves (which unless they were intrested in it, would really have no reason to do such a thing) they will only know what the media/government shovel into their face. not alot of people ever actually look at the harmful results of drinking/alcoholism (i drink, ain't dissin alcohol, just trying to make apoint) so as far as they know, it's ok to drink and will never suffer much backlash from it as long as they "don't drink and drive" .....but you mention drugs and these same people who are all for alcohol (i think we'll all agree weed is safer than alcohol in about every test you could put it to, i.e. high while driving vs. drunken driving, effects on the body and so on) will instantly look down on you for using drugs because they've been force fed the bullshit about how drugs (even weed) can and WILL kill you if you use them.


as to the orignal post, yes it angers me... it angers me that our government sees it fit to not only outlaw drugs, but they have to lie (and i realllllllllllllly fuckin hate liars no matter how small of a lie) so they can scare people away from it. from my point of view, you have no right to talk down on something til you have done it for yourself (which even tho we'd hope to believe alot of congress has smoked, chances are the [majority] haven't) as long as the government pounds fear [by lying] into the community there will always be a very large group that wish to outlaw it. you know if i had money i'd start running commercials to encourage people to inform THEMSELVES (yes that means i wouldn't be shoving the 'positive effects' down people's throats, i'd encourage them to find out the stuff on their own, and let them decided whether it's as bad as it's made out to be.)
