TEENS DON'T BELIEVE DANGER BECAUSE OF PRIOR LIES
Re: "Is your teen getting high legally?" (11-04-05).
The question that needs to be asked is: Why don't children believe
those who warn them about the dangers of cough syrup? The answer:
Because when the drug war cheerleaders lie about or grossly exaggerate
the dangers of marijuana, they lose all credibility.
When children find out that they have been lied to about marijuana,
they make the logical assumption that they are also being lied to
about the dangers of other drugs like meth, heroin, household
inhalants and cough syrup. A recipe for disaster.
