Psychedelic Anti-Marijuana PSA

By on April 20, 2011 in News 24

“It’s the hula-hoop of the jet generation.”

Out of several decades worth of iconic anti-marijuana television scare-verts, my favorite is this vintage American Medical Association PSA, which appears to have definitely been made by animators who were high on something.

    Because being high on weed never makes anyone think about stuff. Ever.

      We DON’T want to expand our minds! Brains are for thinking and for being productive. We must never threaten our existence as productive and integral parts of the monetary system. Forget mind-altering substances even exist, for they are the crux of all evil and only serve to sway us from our true purpose in life. We must never relent from our duty to the system. NEVER!

      That’s a mind expanding question, ya think?

    The same cunts (the American Medical Association) that claimed, before the 1937 Marihuana Tax Stamp Act, there was nothing wrong with cannabis, would later (70 years later) proclaim the Schedule I classification of “marijuana” to be an outright lie. No end of irony in the Drug War.

      In fact, the AMA was given something of a whole 2 days (?) to prepare their case for a medicine that has been used for literally thousands of years. They’re not the same cunts at all. They’ve been replaced by sockpuppets for the opium lords and coke czars…. good old boy oil mafia.

        I forgot alcohol and pills. Silly me.

    Tell that to the mental health and pharmaceutical communities.
