I wouldn't be surprised if they found heroin too, b/c it is usually crack combined with heroin that kills people. So many young, talented celebs died this way, poor Adam.

No it's not. It's cocaine combined with heroin.

Yeah, I agree with you. The whole, "Don't be a loser!" PSAs don't work for shit. I started drugs because I tried smoking pot and had everyone laughing because I was fucking hilarious. After that, I was like "what were they talking about!? This shit is awesome." Then I tried more and more drugs, each time having the same feeling.

To be honest, though, I don't think anti-drug PSAs work. If you're going to try drugs, you're going to try them. Everyone knows drugs kill and cause addiction, but the human mentality (as indicated in that post about Busch Gardens) is that you are in control of yourself and you are always the exception to the rule.

I think that with the government's suppression of unbiased information about drugs to the public creates a basis for so many young people mixing and abusing drugs. The government doesn't want to talk about it any more than they have to, its too taboo, but they have to say something, so they leave out information for realistic situations.

I don't agree with that. They tell you plenty about how drugs can kill you and you shouldn't mix anything. I think the problem is that children are taught "Drugs are bad! They're gross! They make you uncool!" when they should be saying "Drugs make you feel really, really good. You will want to keep doing them." Because the first time a kid tries a drug, they're gonna think, "Hey, that wasn't right what I was taught. Drugs are awesome, I love this feeling" and that's it, addiction happens. The warning should be that drugs make you feel so good that it's easy to get addicted, not that they're bad and gross and make you uncool.

But they are bad and gross, and do make you uncool. No fallacies there. I would never EVER tell a child how "good" drugs are supposed to make you feel. Telling them how good they make you feel is supposed to make them not want to engage in drugs? Really?

They aren't necessarily bad or gross, and a lot of the time they make people act a lot cooler than they act sober.

Actually crack and heroin is a speedball too- it killed a few rock stars

Who?

Even though I'm sure people do mix crack and heroin, it's not "usually" that mixture that kills people, and not very many young, talented celebs died from it. I am pretty sure you were referring to a combination of cocaine and heroin.
