Choggie's my anti-drug for all the wrong reasons. He's a symbol for incoherent, OCD punctuation addicts everywhere and I think of him like the creepy uncle that hangs around here and no one will leave the kids alone with him. If it's true that everytime a bell rings an angel gets its wings, then I can't help but think that everytime Choggie makes a comment an angel gets its wings ripped off and then viciously beaten.

He's nothing short of a hick Shakespeare, and that's not just cuz he might be a little queer. His words are what would happen if the English language was literally raped. He'll see Webster in Hell.

And don't you worry, Chogster, just in case you ever break your precious punctuation finger, I got some to spare -

I didn't for a moment feel that those adds were pressuring me to be an automaton... On the contrary, I found myself inspired to go and find out what the possible effects of the mentioned drugs actually were. There is in fact, a downside to many drugs - which is that they are self-destructive and addictive. I don't think it's really offensive or insulting for anti-drug adds to play on that. I also can't fault the adds for having some wildly unbelievable scenarios, they all seemed pretty reasonable to me. I've had friends in some of those situations, and been in some myself. What those adds implied to me was that these people took drugs without taking the time to find out what the hell it really was - and these are the results. Peer pressure and whatever other contrivance you can think of could easily put someone naive in any of those given situations.

what are you talking about, MG? of course these ads encourage you to remain ignorant!

ps: it was meant to be posted in the clip page, not in the personal one -.-

In reply to this comment by MarineGunrock:
Great commercials, but the extras in that video are just stupid. Those commercials in no way encourage people to ignore anything. In fact, they seem to try and get people to do research and get the facts on what drugs can do to you.

The prices may have dropped, but is that because of enforcement? The cop is saying that anti-drug enforcement increases availability, but that claim is unsupported at best.

Prices can go down for other reasons. Enforcement will increase the money that has to be spent on evading enforcement so it will tend to increase prices, not decrease them. In other words, the factors that made drug prices decrease under current drug war policy, would make the prices drop even further if the drug producers didn't have to deal with the costs of confiscated equipment, jailed runners, ruined crops, etc.

This would make a great anti-drug ad.

@ant: The PSA is on wikipedia and YouTube (the latter I've gone ahead and sifted here).

...Perhaps its' the sexually repressed, anti-drug, anti-anglo, types that won't vote for, or comment on this......."snapshot of "B" film trailer history".....they probly' called this "X" rated in the states when it was released.....

Tom Snyder is the whitest man of 1975.

I loved how Snyder was trying to hold John to doing an anti-drug message because of how television personalities influence the public as Tom sucking down a cig. Ah how times have changed.
