AD CAMPAIGN TARGETS WRONG DRUG

The financially and politically influential alcohol lobby opposes the
inclusion of alcohol in the government's anti-drug ad campaign and, in doing
so, perpetuates the ignorance that kills our children.

I would add that the anti-drug ad campaign begins to look extremely stupid
when one realizes that the very, very expensive ad campaign ignores alcohol
(which kills more people than all illegal substances combined) and
concentrates on cannabis, which has no lethal dose and whose pharmacological
effects have not caused a single death in more than 5,000 years.
