Friends of Narconon President's Briefing--Issue 45   PDF  Print  Email 

Who Do You Believe?

While the Drug Policy Alliance continues to promote the "benefits" of drug use, they also attack our government's efforts to curb marijuana use.

And I quote from their web site: "It's bad enough that the government is wasting your money on stupid anti-marijuana commercials. It's even worse that these commercials are backfiring."

It is no wonder the DPA attacks something that works! According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA):

"Researchers have demonstrated that television public service announcements (PSAs) designed for and targeted to specific teen personality-types can significantly reduce their marijuana use.

"In a study published in the February 2001 issue of the American Journal of Public Health, researchers report that PSAs with an anti-marijuana use message resulted in at least a 26.7 percent drop in the use of that drug among the targeted teen population." [News Release on the National Institute on Drug Abuse web site, January 31, 2001]

The 2003 Monitoring the Future Study revealed an 11% decrease in Marijuana use. And Friends of Narconon's ground-breaking video - Marijuana The Myth - is now in well over 3,000 public schools, with rave reviews pouring in from teachers and students nationwide.

So what does all this mean?

If you "buy" the Drug Policy Alliance's propaganda, you'd think that nothing works. Some people may even start believing in the DPA's philosophy, which is "They're going to use [drugs] anyway, so why not teach them to use safely and responsibly?"

At Friends of Narconon we know there is NO such thing as "safe" drug use! And we believe in helping our caring teachers out there who really need help helping their students.

Our own studies show that when kids get the truth about drugs, in a way they can understand and relate to, they have a positive change in attitude and no desire for drugs.

Narconon has over 40 years of experience in drug rehabilitation and education, we know what we're talking about.

As to the marijuana issue? Friends of Narconon's DVD - Marijuana The Myth dispels the many falsehoods associated with this drug.

If you have any concern at all about marijuana or want to ensure your family has the correct information, then you need to get this DVD.

You will even find out exactly what drugs such as "pot" do to the body. This is new information even to the teachers who show our video in schools.

Whether you need to get a DVD for yourself or for a friend or loved one, do that now and make sure they don't fall prey to the deceptive lies such as those issued by the Drug Policy Alliance.

We need to get the real truth about drugs out to the public at large. I believe in the old saying "The truth shall set you free".
