All I want to know is how the hell do they know that the kids were 40 % less likley to try the drugs? They probably sat the kids that volunteered in a nice white interagation room with a one way mirror and some strange man in a 3-piece suit walks up casually and offers them the drug. " Hi my name is officer... I mean Chester Flannigan, this shznit is the dope spot on the area code right now dog."

Who in their right mind would say yes to that ****? I mean just because I saw a commercial on T.V. about drugs doesn't mean that I'm going to say yes. It's all about what you believe in.

What kept me from doing pot was my mom. She had me scared to do anything when I was young. I still did a bunch of bad things but I stayed away from drugs. (beer was a whole different story...)
