Time to think about decriminalising marijuana

Right on! There are some realy good points in that article. I especialy liked the point about being against one drug while pushing alcohol. And the thing about parents taking booze orders from their kids to have for a party. Great points.

Peace

Alcohol advertising is one of the dramas. I recall one that said "she used to drink bourbon but then she used to have braces". It was an add for chivas regal. I gave alchohol up at the start of 2001 and would like to know why these companies can blantantly keep attempting to get start again? My life would be go down hill rather quickly. The ratio of ads encouraging drinking to the no of discouraging it would be interesting. I wonder what would outnumber what?

I've noticed increasing numbers of ads using 'drug imagery' to sell stuff - kinda hallucinogenic graphics, & instantly being transported from grey monotony to a bright, psychedelic paradise, such and such a product gives you a lift, such and such a shampoo gives you a buzz. It's like the establishment loves everything about drugs, apart from the actual drug. I reckon if they could develop a controllable bliss/trip pill that made you see lovely things, but didn't give you the real psychedelic thing, it'd be on the market tomorrow. It's all about control - they can control functioning alcoholics and caffeine & nicotine addicts, those drugs don't stimulate free thought.

There's been few adversitements in Australia for mistsubshi cars and they used young trendy people dressed up in "raver clothes" in their adversitements as the company was trying to target their cars for the young people in the 18-25 year old range for their small city cars because of the MDMA/Esctasy culture and its often "media sterotyped" to "Raves" because the Mistsubshi Logo is one of the world's famous and most common logo used on esctasy tablets.

So the Misubsubshi Corp. have started used "raver characters" for their adversitements. I mean ask any Raver and they will know how Mistsubshi is related to the MDMA/Rave/Clubbing community... simply because of the logo, its like a free adversitement for them.

How irony aye?
