Teen Age Drug Abuse Encouraged by Legalization Advocates
A proponent of marijuana legalization suggests that your children become inflamed drug users the minute that they find out that pot is not likely to kill them. If only we told the truth in DARE and encouraged the children to understand that alcohol and ecstasy and pot are just fine, because, gee, they aren’t as dangerous as heroin or coke.
That is the “logic” that encourages teen age drug abuse and it is the slippery slope that the Netherlands and other countries employed when decriminalizing drugs. Now addicts casually leave government supplied needles laying about in public parks and cost the taxpayers incredible sums of money as their dollars go to their supposed rehab by methadone and other drugs.
Read it and weep. But don’t be surprised if you find teachers in your kid’s schools who agree with it. Which is another reason parents are home schooling or seeking out private teen boarding schools, but I digress….

The education system is also wonderfully situated to provide hands-on training in a safe environment. Why not serve some red wine with cafeteria lunches? Red wine has many valuable nutrients, and if there’s one thing that third graders need after a morning of arithmetic and spelling, it’s a stiff drink.
Once the students hit adolescence, they should be provided with a small psychoactive drug starter kit, containing samples of the least dangerous drugs, plus a little handbook listing the unsafe dosages, by body weight, of popular recreational drugs.”
