Help Couteract Salvia Videos.....

I'm not sure if this is the place to post this but I'd like to float an idea on you.
I have been noticing countless articles about Salvia and the teen videos being posted on youtube. Each article I read starts with a politician seeing teenagers getting high on Salvia and proposing legislation to ban it in their state. Every time they state how youtube gave them the idea.
I think maybe we could help discourage these idiots from posting these videos. I for one enjoy growing Salvia. While I don't use it to get high. I just like to grow it. But if these kids keep posting know one will be able to grow it legally anymore.
If people started to flood the youtube comments section with negative responses and Flagging each video as "Dangerous Content - Drug use" You tube would have to remove the flagged material after enough complaints.
Please let me know if I have an idea worth going for. Either way i am gonna keep flagging doing what I can to get rid of those videos. My state luckily has only placed an age restriction on Salvia D. So they don't really affect me, but I'm thinking about all of you that live in states that are in danger from these stupid videos.
Thanks. I hope I didn't drone on. I look forward to any constructive criticism on why my idea might be good or bad.

Post all you want about shrooms. I'd personally love to see it. It's already illegal. Your not giving politicians any ammunition doing that. I'm not claiming Salvia is some kind of Magical plant or any Hippie crap like that.
I just don't see why people are helping ban something they enjoy to use. Once they ban Salvia Where are all those teenagers gonna get Salvia ever again.

I don't know man, it seems as if the wheels of the system are already turning. I think salvia's become too popular to fly under the radar any longer.

You might be right but if these stupid kids quit posting those youtube videos it might at least slow things down a bit. I don't even use it to get high I just like to grow it and I'd like to have a garden full of Salvia D. It would really suck if they made it illegal and people could go to jail for growing it Luckilly In my state it's already been settled. They passed an age restriction. I'm afraid other states won't be so lucky.
If people started to post negative comments at each of these posted videos and Flagged them as inappropriate they might not get posted as much. I don't think people would risk their accounts being canceled to keep doing it. Then they would lose all the rest of their videos.
Right now it's these video's that is the main reason it's getting banned. Recently in Wisconsin one of those stupid kids got his video aired and the next day a politician came on the news explaining he had never heard of Salvia until he saw that video. Then went on to explain his plan to sponsor a bill in that state to ban it. This is happening all over the country.
