Doctor Winters opened the door to his office, sighing heavily. Sitting there at his desk was Martha D. Peterson, your everyday average suburban house wife. Sobbing away, her makeup smearing down her face, she looks up at him with eyes aglow with a tremendous sadness. Doctor Winters clears his throat and sits down, silently.
"Is my son.. is he on THE DRUGS?" She blurts out, in between sobs.
"Mrs. Peterson. . . please calm down. Unfortunately, yes, after primary diagnosis, your son seems to be suffering from marijuana addiction. . . He shows all the symptoms."
"Are. . . are you sure? What symptoms?"
"Well you see his overall happiness is higher than before, he has a predilection towards Cheetos, and can't seem to stop watching The Chapelle Show."
Martha D. Peterson collapsed, the very notion of her son being a menacing drug addict proving to be too much for her. She wondered why her son, out of all people, a boy she raised in the safety of the suburbs, to keep from such danger, could get caught in the death grip of Marijuana... She wished that she only had paid more attention to him, and sought the necessary education to see the warning signs before he slipped too deeply into the pits of drug addiction. . .
Enter the Above the Influence campaign.
A propaganda machine that pumps out its vile lies daily, without any shame whatsoever. Scaring children and misleading this country's youth with staggering statistics of death and destruction, all at the hands of festering drug use. . . It suffers from the belief that the end will justify the means, that there is no greater fight to be fought in this country than the war on drugs. Its main medium is television, taking into account that teenagers watch it with a fierce conviction. Their commercials range from borderline ridiculous to all out hilarious. They depict stoners, running over children, leaving their friends, getting straight D's, having themselves drawn on with permanent markers while passed out, talking dogs, and all sorts of ploys to get kids to hate the drug and view it with callus ignorant eyes.
Remember: live above weed, live above the influence of drugs and your friends, but always listen to your government. . . If you smoke weed you'll become fat and ugly, and you will most certainly be balding, you'll probably still live with your parents, and you won't have any friends at all, except of course, for the terrible drug that got you where you are today... alone and bitter.
The crown jewel in the Above The Influence campaign, one which has cost 220 million dollars in the past two years alone, is its website, www.abovetheinfluence.com. It serves as a further "educational" tool for teenagers and their parents alike. It amazes me that the word "fact" is even on the site, or "truth" for that matter. It operates on a mindset that is reminiscent of all the DEA agents in Hunter S. Thompson's Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, who hated the very idea of drugs, but couldn't even notice two drug freaks sitting in a room with them, one even snorting cocaine as they went on about stoners and their jeans stained with cum from constantly jerking off, eyes hidden behind tea shades, and a lack of morality that leads them to kill with no remorse.
Their main target, Marijuana, which according to the site causes:
- heart attacks
- panic attacks
- depression
- schizophrenia
- ADDICTION
- Psychosis
So you smoke weed and do shrooms cause they natural and from the Earth? Well according to ATI, poison ivy and anthrax are natural and come from the Earth, and people don't smoke them. . . Citing that just because something comes the Earth, doesn't mean that its safe for you. Beside the fact that Marijuana has never killed a single person, it according to ATI is just as bad as anthrax and poison ivy (which admittedly isn't that bad.) If that wasn't enough, the site states that sometimes chemical additives are adding to the marijuana to help with the drying process (complete lie).
So you smoke weed cause you think it makes you rebellious and cool huh? Well according to ATI:
"Sometimes movies, television, and advertisements use images of drugs, alcohol, and cigarettes to make characters seem rebellious or cool to increase the ratings of a show or to sell products. Most people understand these are just images designed to sell products and that these are not real people or stories. . ."
Well ATI, sometimes television, and advertisements use images of drugs, alcohol, and cigarettes to make characters seem retarded or controlled by friends, to fuel a war on a way of life and personal choice. Most people understand these are just images designed to justify the loss of billions of dollars to fight a war that cannot be won, and that these are not real people or stories... Most people understand that stoners don't run over young children, or ditch their friends, and believe their dog is talking to them. . . You hypocritical fucks.
So you smoke weed because of the medicinal benefits? According to the ATI:
So you smoke weed because of the medicinal benefits? According to the ATI:
"Smoked marijuana has no medical benefits of any kind, and is NOT a medicine. . . Marijuana does not cure Multiple Sclerosis. Marijuana does not cure cancer. Marijuana does not cure glaucoma."
They fail to realize people smoke marijuana, not cure these things, but to help alleviate some of its symptoms, much like Advil or Tylenol helps alleviate headaches. . . The ATI would rather have a man go without eating, because he has no appetite because stomach cancer, or a man with multiple sclerosis to live every moment of his life in pain, even if weed is the only thing that helps him relax and gives him a little peace. . .
The truth is this site is no different from the Gestapo, spreading messages of hate based on ignorance. . . It shameless in its ads and depictions of the drug, it wastes money and doesn't seem to work. Some studies have proved that they actually have a counter effect, bringing em to drugs rather than taking them away. It is shamelessly retarded. . . Once again operating on the belief that the ends will just the means, that scaring children will be worth it if it results in a drug-free America. It further adds to the wussification of our nations youth, right up there with banning dodge ball in schools, and touching all together.
shameless retardation: retardation without shame. Victims exercise their retardation without any remorse, and often seek to spread it, like a plague throughout society. Said victims are "shamelessly retarded."
