I don't know if anyone else mentioned this, but they present selective data, and make misleading claims, i.e. the number of carcinogens of a particular class in marijuana as compared to tobacco is 1. largely irrelevant 2. derived from a 1975 study 3. contradicted by a recent report

They have a catch. If you are promoting the use of marijuana it is deleted, or if you are "obvioiusly out of their age range". So if you post anything that makes sense, they say you are over 18 and delete the information.

I'm up for making a complete parody of Abovetheinfluence (above the propaganda) highlighting all the positive aspects of these drugs that such websites always overlook.
Drugs cause cancer / send you insane / make you kill fluffy bunny rabbits.
I was once naive enough to believe this crapola they taught us in school, until I realised that they neglect the fact that drugs are actually amazing. I used to think why the fuck would anyone do drugs if this was the case, until my hippie parents gave my first bowl of ganja
This is something that really needs to be done.. massive user testimonials, scientific studies citing the benefits of such drugs, psychological studies stating possible benefits of such chemicals.
I think abovethepropaganda.com, talkfrankly.com, truthvibe.com and other such sites would make a difference.

The thing is about erowid is that normal people aren't exposed to it.. you have to know what you're looking for.
A parody of a government promoted site would get more hits from the average person, and present it in a way similar to that the government presents its own propaganda..

Q. How can I help someone through a bad trip? A. Don't try to handle this situation on your own; call 911 and a trusted adult immediately. While waiting, address the person by name, remind them who and where they are, talk to them calmly, make sure they're safe, and don't leave them alone.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

I read the first half or third of the post. Actually, a lot of what's posted is probably true, they're just making it sound horrible, and claiming that the differences are much larger than they actually are. For instance, they say that today's marijuana is up to 25 times more potent than marijuana from the 60s. That's probably true if you compare today's dank weed to schwag from the sixties. You could also say that weed from the sixties is more potent if you compare high-quality weed back then to crappy weed today. Note the "up to" in that sentence.

Blah blah blah everyones full of shit and it seems to me that everyone else around us just happily gobbles up the shit once its been shitted out. Just so the world continues to operate in linear, definable domains. Get high and wake up. End of story.

"Hi I am 14 years old and I started smoking pot when I was 11.I hung out with a gruop of guys much older so I could get weed whenever I wanted.I thought I could trust them.I was wrong.One night after my 13th birthday I snuck out and went to this guys house.I got pretty high. It started to get really late so I decided to leave.He didn't like that.He kept begging me to stay and tellng me he'd give me a ride home later. I knew I'd get caught if I didn't leave. As I got up to go he turned out the light so I couldn't see a thing.Then he pushed me back onto his bed and raped me.That nightI learned a very crucial lesson."A friend with weed is a friwnd you don't need."
lol.

Now that was just ridiculous.
At least it was somewhat amusing. It almost makes the stoner lifestyle look appealing. Who wouldn't want chunks of brownie in their hair? The convenience...
LMFAO.... that guy at the beginning of that video looks like a big time pedophile
the worst crime ever committed was probably a bakery robbery...
when i was in grade 5, a cop came to our school with a big suitcase of different drugs with the mission of scaring the crap out of everyone. he did a pretty good job as far as i can remember.... this honestly makes me sick that people do this. They get them while their young and try and scare the free thinking out of them... i remember this guy seemed like a big time Nazi, even to me in grade 5, telling stories of beating up potheads and trying to make it look cool
I remember taking away from those presentations that mushrooms make your brain bleed, MDMA stays in your spine and causes random highs whenever you crack your back, marijuana is an addictive gateway drug and will turn you to things like crack and PCP (obviously )
and my favourite one...this is good... he claimed a man once took LSD, and looked in the mirror and thought his face was ugly. So he took a razor blade and cut all the skin off his face, and couldnt feel it because of the LSD (????does LSD not amplify feelings???). He then died from blood loss. BULL
Remeber, a Police officer told a class of grade 5 children this story. how fucked up is that????

The problem with almost every anti-drug campaign is a simple flaw in logic. The only side effects ever listed are negative ones. It doesn't take a genius to realize that these drugs must have SOME positive effects or else nobody would ever want to use them in the first place. For instance, would you ever want to have used acid if the only description of its effects you had to go on were the ones on that website?
abovetheinfluence.org says:
Quote:
Disturbing psychological effects / Delusions / Hallucinations / Paranoia / Anxiety / Addiction / Aggression / Sleeplessness / Flicking up and down of the eyes / Drooling / Loss of balance / Dizziness / Nausea and vomiting / Trembling / Loss of muscular coordination / Cirrhosis of the liver
Of course not! Those side effects more accurately describe a zombie than somebody on LSD. I just wish there weren't groups like this running around using scare tactics and false information to keep mostly harmless drugs like marijuana prohibited. Damn.
