Is anyone else tired of those damn ati drug commercials thats always trying to get you to quite smoking cigarettes and weed?

Like theres this one where these kids stick leeches on themselves and I'm like wtf? they're fucking leeches! leeches and weed are 2 different things I mean I kind of understand what they're trying to say but can't they do any better than leeches?

It's such a waste of time and money they should quite trying to control other people from smoking weed and leave all that crap for the parents to handle or just let people make their own damn choices.

Also I'm wondering why arent there any commercial for other drugs just as bad as weed?

Anyways I'm done with my rant, any other opinions?

iv'e seen Anti Meth commercials that tell specifically how dangerous meth is and some of the dangerous chemicals contained their in, but when it comes to marijuana all they can do is use these retarded peer pressure metaphors, They cant come out and say that marijuana is deadly or causes Cancer because then everybody would know they are liars and what little credibility they have (if any) would be lost.

I usually Laugh when I see em because they are so dumb.

actually those commercials are why i quit smoking cigarette's, ours here in Australia are pretty hard core! like cutting open diseased brains/lungs/eyes...

showing stillborns and amputated legs, man they're awful, and then they started putting images onto your packets of all this shit!

I was like fuck this!

Im in the US and ive never seen any meth commercials talking about the dangers they only focus on marijuana for some reason ive seen some stupid ass comercials like a kid smoking a joint and asking a dog to smoke with him cause it will make if feel less bad if he has some one to smoke with and the dog say's something like "You Dissapoint me" but they arent really talking its like little skit with the bubble thing over there head with letters inside

I used to live next to Independance, Missouri, the meth manufacturing capital of the U.S.

Guess what? Saw forty of those goddamn, children drawn, dog with flag commercials, but none about meth.

Hell, the last crack commercial I saw had Pee Wee Herman in it, and that was YEEEEEAAARRRSSS ago.

Disgraceful.
